evandixon Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 (edited) Thread Closed Until Further Notice. I do not know how to fix the checksum. Please see this thread. --------------------------------- Do you ever in Diamond or Pearl, do something and think to yourself, "I can always change it later. I'll just use PokeSav"? Have you ever done the same in PkMn Mystery Dungeon 2, but then remembered that there ISN'T a SAV editor for it? I have. So, I have decided to make one. This, is easier said then done. First, I have to find a value to change, when there are 262,144 bytes to look at, and at the same time, all the bytes relating to each other are on completely different locations. ---------------------------------- Currently needed: -Someone to check to see if the SAV for Time and Darkness are the same. -Time. I could really, really use some time. If only someone could help find wich locations go with wich values, then send them to me (hint, hint). -Suggestions, to give me some things in particular to look for. Please? ---------------------------------- My Current Progress: -Edit Team Name (Pretty Useless, Isn't it. This can be done in-game) ---------------------------------- Status: Delayed Why?:Because Nintendo didn't make this easy. If I was anyone else, I would have given up long ago. But, this is testing me. I will not let it win!!! ---------------------------------- The latest version can be found at: http://www.uniquegeeks.net/apps/PMDEOTSavEditor/ V 0.0.0.0: VERY early stage of development. So early, that I haven't even had time to perfect the GUI. For those curious, it is being coded in VB.Net. Is anyone out there? ANY QUESTIONS/COMMENTS/SUGGESTIONS/RESPONSES TO MY HELP REQUEST/ANYTHING?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? --------------------------------- Requested Features: -Inventory -Mission Edit -Team Edit List of people who would be black-mailed because they voted yes, if I didn't say I wouldn't: -Chase-san -Friendsxix - claims to have accidentally voted :kikkoman: -skymin ----------------------------------- Assistance needed. Please contact me if you are interested. To begin, find what locations store what values. If I do not get any assistance, then it will take forever and a half to finally edit something at all. I change all instances of "Piplup" to "123456", and still, my partner's name is "Piplup"!!!!!!!!!!!! -------------------------------------- Sorry if anybody out there is becoming impatient. I am currently experimenting with ways of finding the values. I suspect that the bits do not line up on the byte perfectly, so I am planning a program to turn bytes into bits and back. Once I finish that, I will publish it here. Edited July 6, 2009 by evandixon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabresite Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 This can be done. If the game wasn't so crappy, I would volunteer. You are better off using a debugger like NO$GBA to help you though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evandixon Posted April 8, 2009 Author Share Posted April 8, 2009 The main problem is time, what I really, really need. That, and I'm stuck in a part of the storyline where I can't try an idea that I have. I also need to be weary to not start another project on top of that - a Pokemon Ranger SAV editor I have been getting ideas for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moral Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 Someone to check to see if the SAV for Time and Darkness are the same. By the same, you mean interchangeable? Because I've been alternating between Time and Darkness using the same .SAV file to collect version exclusive items. I'm not finish the game yet but I wanted to see if I could recruit both Celebi and Mewtwo using this method. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chase-san Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 I poked at the the save on an Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Red Rescue Team, but in the end not much point to it. In these cases I play the Mystery Dungeons for the story(abiet a lot of grind to get to it, but, it is a pokemon game), if I want my [power gaming/catch them all obsessive] fix i'll hack the other games (like I am now).

Friendsxix Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 (edited) This is a GREAT idea ^^ I assume it's going to have Inventory and Mission Edit Also Team edit would be great! It'd be good to have a feature that allows you to change Quicksave Data, like Changing the floor you're on and Changing the Dungeon you're in. Best of luck to you! EDIT: BTW, Can I make the Team name as long as you want instead of having a limit? Edited April 19, 2009 by Friendsxix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evandixon Posted April 19, 2009 Author Share Posted April 19, 2009 Inventory shoud be the easiest thing to find. I guess that will be what I work on first. Quicksave data will be dificult because there are bytes that I think are either completely random, or some formula to dscourage hacking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh... Well, Inventory is more important Again, I wish the Best of Luck! (By accident I Clicked "Yes" on the Poll. That vote doesn't count) Edited April 20, 2009 by Friendsxix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evandixon Posted April 19, 2009 Author Share Posted April 19, 2009 The things you requested will probebly be found in this order: Inventory Mission Edit In the FAR furute: Team Edit If this game stores them the exact same was as Diamond and Pearl, then this is the last thing I'll do.
