A simple save editor for Tears of the Kingdom has appeared

saveeditor.png

Out of the blue and in a surprising manner, a very simple save editor for Tears of the Kingdom has appeared on GitHub created by user IchmagKekse. The application runs on PC, and it was developed using Visual Studio with C# language.

The editor right now is quite simple and barebones in its v1.0, only allowing the editing of rupees, hearts and stamina for the main game, but as for a few minutes ago from this post, the application was updated to v1.1.0, adding support for editing Bows, Shields, Weapons and Armor as well.
When more data mining is done for the game's data once it's properly out in the wild, the amount of data gathered from all around the homebrew scene will surely help to improve and further develop this save editor, and hopefully others which have been popular for BotW in a similar manner.

The time to unlock all of the Korok seeds and map locations automatically in Tears of the Kingdom can't come soon enough!

Is this for saves on PC or we can bring them from the console with JKSV? besides, does it allow to increase Korok seeds number?

I imagine the save file structure is similar to BOTW, but still very impressive to see something like this already!
Your correct, the game is pretty much BOTW recycled typical of nintendo lately, fuck knows how it's taken them 6 long years when all they've done is added floating islands that magically appear from nowhere and more shrines.

I wonder if the delay is so they can announce near Xmas time their new console and it be a launch title.

If your able to search for basic things like how many items you have, you can pretty much max everything out that you have.

Note for newbies if you want to search.

Each full heart container equals 4, I think you start the game off with max hearts that's 40 hearts.

4x40=160 (dec) A0 (hex)

So depending where you are in the game and how many hearts and how full your health is. simply each full heart container is broken into 4 quarters

Your stamina bar at start of a new game is 17723 (dec) 453B (hex).

Or once you wake from your slumber and lost your hearts and stamina its 17530 (dec) 447A (hex).

You can easily find everything else, for example once you have found Infinite Hearts, you will see right before that address is the address to Max your Hearts, you will also find Kokori Seeds, Orbs of Light.

Kokori Seeds, Orbs of Light have 2 address locations, one that shows in game menu and the other loading screen.

Unless you quit your game you dont need to worry about dying or loading game data, the addresses remain static unless the game is closed.

I was making note of items ect, but once you have found the basics, you can pretty much max everything out yourself.

I wouldn't touch this Save Editor for a while because I tried it on my save under Ryujinx and it screwed up my game save. Now every time I open the game in Ryujinx the emulator instantly crashes. Didn't do any of this prior to editing my save. You have been warned!!!

silly question, but where is the save file if taken from a modified switch?
use checkpoint to create a save backup and the save file will be in the checkpoint directory on your sd card
so sad can't cheat on durable of weapon (even manual edit)

i think it was @TomSwitch that has already made a cheat so your weapon Durability is Infinite (Will Never Break)

Now that all depends on what TYOU did to edit your save, in theory it shouldnt corrupt your saver file and cause the EMU to crash (unless there's a mistake inputting any ITEM ITDs), if so, could be helpful to explain what you did that caused a crash so it can be replicated to see if it is the4 save editor or not.

If yoiu have tried setting things higher than the game permits then it can cause problems, if you have tried giving yourself items early then again, it may lead to probles if it is story/mission driven..... what the fuck am i talking about, its just 6 long years delay of DLC content thrown into a new £50+ game and means for nintendo to crap out multiple versions and another crap console with a skin to rinse more money from the scalpers - There is no sodding story/mission driven, just more sodding shrines....

Try reload an Auto Save prior to using the save editor, if it still crashes then it could be something with the emu/settings?

On switch with JKSV I have different slots(00 - 05, meaning main and 5 autosaves), I tried to mod slot_00 but it didn't work, which is the one that should be modified? Looking only for unlimited rupees.

Edit: after fully checking all slots, it seems that non of them is the actual save as I'm missing the current items. I may need to update an autosave and edit that.

    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages

    It does that when I edit a post.

    It inserts a newline in a random spot.

    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
