Yes I am still around and have come up with a new hack. I think the last Tutorial I made was Farcry 2 which I think was a huge step for that game.
Note: I cannot get this to work anymore and there has not been an update in game so not sure why it is not working for me now but try it anyway if you want. At one point it was consistent I only changed the value the once but when I searched for a new value later it was still in a similar spot.
Way 1 - Less steps but a bit more complicated for novices
Programs Needed:
Hex Editor(any should do)
Base Converter(ability to convert to Floating hex)
1. Ensure that you obtain your Contentdata.bin and put it on your desktop or in a special place so you don't lose it. (make sure you make a backup).
2. Open it with your favorite hex editor. Now search for your credits in Raw Hex(Motorola works to), Floating(32) in Base Converter. I do believe that program is on this site. My credits were 19811 so I search for 469AC600(without the spaces of course). I also noticed that 8000 normally follows your credits as well so this can help if you somehow have more than 1 value.
3. My location was 0xD112 but a second time I also got 0x10112 as well. So not sure what the difference is.
4. Change it to 49742400 so you get 1 million credits or if you want 4B189680 will give you 10 million credits. I only did 1 millions credits.
5. REHASH
Way 2- More steps but more consistent and don't necessarily need to search for the credits
Programs Needed:
Hex Editor(any should do)
Base Converter(ability to convert to Floating hex)
Xbox 360 Container Tool, Modio or Le Fluffies for STFS
1. Ensure that you obtain your Contentdata.bin and put it on your desktop or in a special place so you don't lose it. (make sure you make a backup).
2. Open your Contentdata.bin in Xbox 360 Container Tool, Modio or Le Fluffie and remove 00000000.sav and save it to where you have your main save.
3. Open 00000000.sav with your favorite hex editor. Now search for your credits in Raw Hex(Motorola works to), Floating(32) in Base Converter. I do believe that program is on this site. My credits were 19811 so I search for 469AC600(without the spaces of course). I also noticed that 8000 normally follows your credits as well so this can help if you somehow have more than 1 value.(NOTE: This step probably isn't required but I put it here just incase. If you find no value Way 1 will have to be used but so far all the times I have seen this way be consistent 100% of the time)
4. Your location SHOULD BE 0xD112.
5. Change it to 49742400 so you get 1 million credits or if you want 4B189680 will give you 10 million credits. I only did 1 millions credits personally.
6. Reinsert 00000000.sav into your Contentdata.bin
7. REHASH
If anyone else wants to help feel free since I am kinda lost at this point. I do decompressing it comes up with 6 files of which 4 of them are in the actual save itself and not the container. Now why there are 4 of them yet the credits are simple to hack and at the beginning of the save I have no idea. I am trying to break it down but it's been a while. Also if anyone wants to know this game is really fun so they should really give it a try. I am hoping to at least hack some of the stats for achievements like survive 500 waves fo survival since that will take a long time to do.
Also some of the stats might be connected to the profile so I will also test that out with my save file and load it on an offline profile and see if that will do anything.
I am also going to keep working on this so check back regularly or keep this posted bumped since I will not be happy till I have everything that can be hacked figured out. If someone wants they can make an editor for this game.
