I managed somehow but with set inv/0/item “decaying steel war axe of alacrity” and since i needed at lvl 1 a go with set inv/0/item “decaying steel war axe of alacrity” 1 but i needed some more physique so I tried using Scrapmetal Great Axe as a base and it worked.
Finaly now i can rush back to lvl 40 since I lost my first char and 15h of gameplay because of cloud save.
One more think I notice is that when you add itemes and login your char is gone but yes if i quit steam and login back the char is back as well. But what i do to avoid this login logout, well i quit steam first add all i need and login. Maybe is a know issue but i try help a bit
If you want to change your level, the most straightforward way is to use the “level” command. Just run the command “level 40”. This will real a few different fields to properly level your character.
To use the editor with your character, you’ll really want to make sure you quit the game. This will make sure the game isn’t writing over your changes somehow. Also, it’s not clear what rules governs exactly when the game might read the save file from disk again. I found that even quitting to the main menu wasn’t enough to bring in the changes I made to the character. This was from quite some time ago, so I don’t know if the behavior has changed or not.
Another think i wish you can help me is with items that have variant prefixes or suffixes.
I made the command: set inv/0/item “oathkeeper’s ribbon of decay” and it gave me the item but with +1 to Clarity of Purpose and i want to give me +1 to Eye of Reckoning. Is there a way to change the prefix to +1 to Eye of Reckoning?
For your scenario, first you’ll want to find out where that item was placed. The “set” command that created the item should say at the top of the output something like:
“Item placed in inventory-sacks/3/inventory-items/16”
(if you don’t know where that items is, you can always use the “find” command. Try “find oathkeeper’s”)
So in this case, if you wanted to change the prefix of that item, you’d then issue:
“swap-variant inv/3/items/16 prefix”
You’re probably after variant 7 or 8, which refer to skill records
“records/skills/playerclass09/eyeofreckoning1.dbr”
and
“records/skills/playerclass09/eyeofreckoning2.dbr”
Don’t know anyone ask this before but I have a problem. Went I try to add an item, the program run normal, it’s said that item placed in my inventory but in game I can’t find it. You know how to fix it ? And sorry for my bad English.
Write the edited character to disk
This is done by selecting the “write” command at the prompt.
Usually, when a character is reloaded, the prompt always shows you that you can either “r)eload” or “w)rite”. Type “w” followed by the enter key. The editor should tell you the exact path where the character file has been written to and where the backup has been saved to.
Exit the game
It isn’t enough to just quit the game to the main menu. I’m guessing the game keeps a copy of the character it last loaded in memory. To make it reload a character from disk, the sure fire way is to quit the game entirely, make your edits, write/save the edited character, then launch the game again.
I might have broken my character because i’ve tried this “level 46” method and after it didn’t work a bunch of times, i tried doing it manually through:
Which worked but now i have a character that is level 46 but only has 95 skill points (he was level 32 before trying to change it), and i should have 135 (i think).
I think this is likely because the editor isn’t able to find the game data (game db record) to run its calculations, like how much exp the character ought to have an such.
You can use the “diag” command to see if the editor thinks if it has access to the game data directory. If not, you can use the “gamedir” command to tell the editor where the game is installed.
I tried it with a v1.1.2.5 of the game and respec seems to work (for the character I was testing with anyway). So it looks like this isn’t some issue with trouble locating the game db. Maybe it has to do with some piece of data on your character that might be causing this?
Do you mind sending your save file for me to test with?
Odie, the program works! I changed the devotion amount on my character and it didn’t count towards the total! Nice job man! I used it on my GoG version of GD (AoM+FG no C or packs). I do have a Steam version of GD, but have yet to try it on my Steam version which includes C n packs.
Great to hear that things are still working! It’s been quite some time since I last played GD. I really need people to let me know when things stop working. =)
I’m not by my computer at the moment. iIRC, there is a field named “kill-count”. You try “show kill” to see if there’s a field that contains the word “kill” to verify.
If that’s the right name, you should be able to just “set kill-count 10000” or to whatever number you want.
Got it thanks! Is there a way to give yourself the powers of the 5 shrines in shattered realm? I am trying to fudge the achievement to give it to me as I can’t seem to get all 5 shrines.
