Any interest in a GH1 save editing guide?

(1/1)

DudeGuyMan:
I love how this game saves everything in a plain text file, and I've done a lot of tinkering.

Over time I've figured out how to do some stuff, some of which I haven't seen documented. From obvious stuff like messing with my stats, to oddball things like moving signposts around town. The other day I decided I didn't really want a 14 year old Vikki so I figured out how to change NPC ages, and genders while I was at it. You'd think you'd be looking for the number 14 in the file, but actually it was -6 since age is stored with 0 representing 20 years.

I figured out how to give myself the Crystal Disk for the Argoseyer after the quest ate it, which was nice. I haven't figured out how to add or remove limbs from people yet, but then I haven't given it much thought. I kinda wanna give someone two heads just because.

I could throw what I've learned into a text file and post it on the wiki if anyone gives a crap. I'd also like to canvas for tips, because I know other people have probably figured out a lot more than I have, and just haven't posted it.

There's already something on the wiki about this http://gearheadrpg.com/wiki/index.php?title=Guides:Savegame_Editing, but feel free to contribute. I used to mess around with the saves a lot when I was more active.
