Tenderfoot Thahd Impact Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 I am surprised to not have heard any mention of The Cheat on this forum. It is a simple way to edit any numerical stat in pretty much any video game. It actually lets you search for the variables used by the Geneforge application, find the one you are looking for, and then change it to anything you like. I have been using this program (or another old one that worked the same way) since the early Exile days for all my cheating needs, and I figured it was time to give something back to the community that I have been leeching from to get through Geneforge 4. If you need any help using it, just ask (or read the directions). You can download it directly from the guy that makes it at: http://www.brokenzipper.com/ Or just search on version tracker. It is totally free to download and use, of course. - Impact P.S. Editing your available skill points is the easiest way to make that God-like character you have always wanted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well-Actually War Trall Fort Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 It looks like a very useful, universal program for cheating. However, I usually stay away from things like this because I have no confidence in that nothing harmful was included with the application. I'm not sure if it's still a policy anymore not to talk about direct hexediting style programs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Alorael at Large Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 It's still policy here, and you can always go through the source code yourself looking for malicious pieces. Assuming, of course, that you are fluent in whatever code is being used. —Alorael, thinks this is just like Pandora's Box was for OS 9. Except probably with fewer references to unusually octopoid games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tenderfoot Thahd Impact Posted December 9, 2006 Author Share Posted December 9, 2006 Ahh! Sorry if I managed to break the rules on my first post. I thought hex editing usually referred to editing the program files in hex, but I can see how this is pretty much the same thing. Impact Edit: Pandora's Box! Yes, that was the old program I used to use way back in the days of Exile! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Alorael at Large Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 It's not an entirely reasonable rule, but it's a rule and we abide by it. That said, modification of h*xes has contributed vastly to our understanding of the world of Exile/Avernum. We'd never be able to walk through walls and be sure that those unreachable rooms are empty without it! —Alorael, who thinks Jeff could have at least gone to the trouble to put a few more, "What are you doing in here?" signs on the walls.

Seasoned Roamer Horse in a man costume Posted December 10, 2006 Share Posted December 10, 2006 I have tried for ages to find the code variable thing for skill points, but I can't seem to find it. Does anyone know it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrulous Glaahk Aeshi Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 That would be awesome... 100 Intelligence......*drool* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall Micawber Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 I would imagine that intelligence is capped at 30 + items, like in the other games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Alorael at Large Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 Look at this thread for scripts that handle stats. —Alorael, who thought the cap was set up to prevent you from raising the stat higher than 30. If you cheat to boost it more it probably still has the usual effects. Infinite essence is a beautiful thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice ex post slarto Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 I thought the other games capped stats at 30, including items, and did weird things (i.e., reduced stats sometimes) if you equipped and then took off a stat booster with that stat already maxxed out.

Understated Ur-Drakon Sudanna Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 Actually, if you get too much intelligence, your essence and energy will go negative by about 30,000. So, 30,000 is probably tour maximum for everything. -X- prefers to use custom-made charms to increase stats beyond possible limits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You call that cheating? Charms take up inventory space! I can't understand why you would ever need stats above 30 anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyshakk Koan Drakon Sssharxx Posted December 14, 2006 Share Posted December 14, 2006 err... i would think you edit an existing item useing notepad (or have times moved on?) so that when you equip that sword/sheild/whatever it is you get a huge stat increase. it would likely be in the items file.
