A save editor is a software tool that allows you to modify every aspect of your game save files without losing any data. The online save editor is the ultimate tool for customizing your favorite games. With support for popular formats like Ren'Py, RPG Maker MV/MZ/VX/XP, NaniNovel, and JSON, our editor is compatible with a wide range of games. Save Editor ensures that you never lose any data and makes it easy to make changes to your game saves.
With a powerful search feature, you can quickly find the values you need to customize. SaveEditor.online gives you complete control over your gaming experience and unlocks new possibilities. Try it out today and start taking your gaming to the next level!
The save editor prioritizes safety and security and is designed to make modifying your game saves as safe as possible. However, it's always a good idea to make a backup of your original save file before using the editor, just in case something goes wrong. This will ensure that you can revert to your original save file if any issues arise.
Our editor is designed to be non-destructive, meaning that it won't affect your original game or save files. Instead, our tool creates a copy of the original save file and makes changes to that copy. This way, you can make changes to your game saves without the risk of data loss or corruption.
While using our save editor, you should also be careful not to modify any fields that you're unsure about. Some game saves have complex structures and interdependencies, and modifying the wrong field could cause issues with your game. However, with Save Editor's user-friendly interface and powerful search feature, you can quickly and easily find and modify the fields you need to customize.
In summary, while SaveEditor.online is designed to be safe and secure, it's always a good idea to make a backup of your original save file before using the editor. With our non-destructive editing and powerful search features, you can safely and easily customize your game saves to your liking.
You can edit anything from in-game resources like money, level, and progress to various game settings. Our tool allows you to view and change all the information you need without removing any data. However, we recommend creating a backup before making any changes to avoid losing progress. Try it out today and take control of your gaming experience!
Our search feature is designed to be both powerful and versatile, providing you with the ability to efficiently locate any value or variable in your save file. With multiple search modes and filters, you can easily find the information you need to customize your gaming experience. Here's an overview of what our search function offers:
For a detailed, step-by-step guide on how to make the most of our search feature, please refer to our comprehensive instruction. This guide will help you utilize our search functionality effectively and customize your gaming experience like never before.
We understand that having the ability to undo changes made to your game save files is an important feature for a better user experience. Currently, our editor does not have a built-in undo feature. However, we offer a "Show only changed fields" checkbox that allows you to filter and see all of the changes you've made to your save file.
By using this feature, you can observe all of the changes you've made and manually reset any fields back to their original values. While this may not be as convenient as an undo feature, it can still be a helpful way to revert any unwanted changes.
We want to assure you that we are actively working on adding an undo feature to our editor in the near future. We are committed to providing the best possible user experience, and we understand the importance of having this feature for our users. In the meantime, we recommend that you use the "Show only changed fields" checkbox to help you keep track of your changes and make it easier to manually reset any fields if needed.
Do you know any ways to encrypt save files?
Save file I mean when you have been made save/load system for your game and then when you play the game and save, it creates a save file in the game folder. Is there any software or some tricks in GDevelop that can be done?
Now you can open the save file using notepad, and edit the values as you wish.
In theory you can write a piece of javascript code or c++ code to be used as an event. Call the event to encrypt the save string before save it as a file. You also need to write your own decrypt code to decode the string (should be easy with javascript because yon can just parse the string as json or even javascript code).
Please do not misuse this information. Pretty much every author out there doesn't want you editing their games without permission or spreading extracted data publicly. I'm fine with people basing translations into various languages off of my English ones, but I encourage you to notify the original creator first if you plan to do so.
Step 1.
Download WOLF RPG Editor. It's free, but it's currently Japanese-only and honestly quite a bit more complicated than RPG Maker overall. If this is a problem, well, there's nothing else I can really suggest for now. Still, you probably won't need to understand its workings fully if you just want to translate.
Step 5.5.
Depending on the game, you may be able to open the editor without anything special and work without any problems. But if you're getting a bunch of errors, it's probable that Japanese filenames are involved and you need to run the editor in Japanese.
To do this, you can either change your "Default language for non-Unicode programs" to Japanese, or for a more temporary method, use Microsoft's AppLocale. I don't want to go through absolutely everything here, so please do your own Google searches if you need help with either method.
Further Notes: In my experience, running WOLF RPG Editor in Japanese makes it... a little more buggy? I'm still not sure of the exact problem, but I've had the game keep crashing while working in specific rooms, and if I temporarily switched to the no-AppLocale version, the crashes didn't happen. So there's that.
An additional point of concern for translating to non-English languages is characters outside the ASCII range. If you run in Japanese mode, accented characters in messages will lose their accents, but this won't happen if you run it in another locale.
If you need to run the editor in English but some map filenames contain Japanese, you'll need to rename those map files in order to work with them. Open up the System Database (see below) and you should see the map list in slot 0. Go through each entry and change each filename (should be "MapData/___.mps") to an English filename, making that same change to the actual file in the MapData folder. Once everything is renamed, you should be able to edit the maps regardless of the locale you're running in.
Events
Like RPG Maker, WOLF RPG Editor works on events. Switch to Event mode (the "Ev" on the toolbar) and double-click on one of the boxes in a map to open the event editor. The left side has a handy list of all the events in that map, so you can go down that list.
Make sure to check all available pages (ページ1, ページ2, up to 10) of each event using the tabs at the top. If you're unfamiliar with the concept (also used in RPG Maker), when an event is triggered, it chooses one of its pages to use depending on the variable conditions specified. The event editor also has a button in the bottom-right, セーブマップ全体, to save the current map.
Basic Messages
Event actions starting with 文章 are simple, default-style messages. For most games, this will make up the majority of the dialogue. Double-click or press Space to edit, change the text in the box, and click OK. You probably just want to leave all the options alone. Text can have escape codes (stuff starting with a \), which can be used to put variables in text, or change font size, or... yeah, you can figure it out.
Other Text Display
Text can also be drawn wherever you want it to be. To use Mad Father as an example, diaries and other stuff that appears over the screen is done like this. Technically, this is "Picture Display Mode 3: Drawing Text as a Picture." You'll see it as ピクチャ表示 [stuff] 文字列, followed by a string. Edit the action and edit the string.
Common Events With Arguments
Again with the Mad Father example: Those messages you get when you inspect an object are done by passing the text to a Common Event. Calls to events start with イベントの挿入, and when you edit them, you'll see a bunch of boxes for arguments. One of these may be text you want to translate; as usual, you're probably leaving the rest alone.
Databases
Data for things like characters and items and etcetera are stored in the various databases. Open the 表示(V) menu and look through the システムデータベース (System Database), ユーザーデータベース (User Database), and 可変データベース (Variable Database). I can't really tell you anything concrete about how these are used, as it depends on the game.
Common Events
Common events are under the 表示(V) menu and コモンイベント. These are functions that can be called from events, and they may contain stuff to translate. (If they were cleverly used to prevent a lot of message repetition, lucky you!) As far as you're probably concerned, they're basically the same deal as events. Note that pretty much all the basic workings of the engine are editable Common Events, so things like the save/load screen (and thus strings like "No data" for empty slots) are in there.
