NoLifeDGenerate Posted October 1, 2016 Share Posted October 1, 2016 I recently picked up the complete edition of this, and I'm looking to hex edit my save data when I get started. I played Xcom EU on Xbox 360, and there was simple command line tool to unpack and repack the save data that also fixed the checksum, etc. I'm looking for a current tool like that which will work for the steam version of EU+EW with all the DLC.

dubiousintent Posted October 2, 2016 Share Posted October 2, 2016 What we have on the subject can be found in the article "Savegame file format". Oddly enough, there was never that much interest in that area here. -Dubious- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oddly enough, there was never that much interest in that area here. -Dubious- Seriously. Nobody could be bothered to actually write the tool to do it? I'm a game hacker from the N64 era. MIPS assembly and hex editing are fun for me. I even wrote my own gameshark code creation tools, MIPS assembler/disassembler, and co-wrote a tool for PS2 hacking. I don't do compression and checksums! :sad: Is it just one extra checksum beyond what Fairchild's Xbox 360 tool does? and does that cover everything for the current version (complete edition)?

dubiousintent Posted October 2, 2016 Share Posted October 2, 2016 Can't help with rhetorical questions, and I already gave you what I have. You're about two-three years too late to drum up much interest in anything EU/EW related. You might notice I am the only one answering any queries at all, and that's just because I am the self-appointed "librarian" for the wiki and it's easy to check for the odd question. There were never more than a half-dozen "code divers" (and I wasn't one of them), most of them wound up on the Long War development team, and they all moved on to XCOM2 when it was released. I haven't seen any of the old regulars in over a year. -Dubious- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoLifeDGenerate Posted October 2, 2016 Author Share Posted October 2, 2016 Well, hopefully someone makes this type of tool for Xcom 2, because I'll get to that once I rebuild my gaming rig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
