Just to save everyone the trouble of having to look back at the last couple of pages.
About to go to bed right now but I do know I need to update the OP with the extra weapon data and the start offsets for the last couple of DLC packs. No real reason beyond laziness.
And I've already found where this part of initdata.bin gets loaded into RAM (0x356E7294 on the PAL Disc) and tomorrow I test how it reacts to changes.
And I've already found where this part of initdata.bin gets loaded into RAM (0x356E7294 on the PAL Disc) and tomorrow I test how it reacts to changes.
I decided to poke around the game with TCPGecko and found out some values.
This is for the USA version (00050000-1017D800)
Values from initdata editing apply here.
Update:
After some more experimenting with TCPGecko I think I figured out how weapon combos work and how to unlock them for other characters when weapon swapping.
From what I gathered, they work in sets like so
An example:
if you give Sheik the Giant Blade she should be able to use the full combo set for it as long as you have bought all of Sheik's combo badges since they both are in Set 1. To have Sheik use the full combo set of the Naginata you would need to buy the combo set 2 badges for Sheik.
Here are the addresses to unlock the combo badges for all characters
After Unlocking and buying the combo set badges for a character they will stay unlocked after saving, so you only have to do this once for any weapon swaps you want to do.
I hope I explained this well.

lol, I actually found it out by accident when trying to unlock the attack badges through tcpgecko. Didn't see your reddit post until now.
Can confirm that the DLC weapon unlock data starts at the same address on the European disc version. I'm still playing around with the codes, but they're probabaly all the same for EU.
Edit: Can confirm the rest of the codes are also in the same place in the EU version.

Neat, I guess it's just loadiine that has them at different offsets then.
If I understand correctly then the codes in your first block of codes cannot be used to unlock DLC characters on the disc version, correct? Because I tried to edit the locks from 00 to 01 for the characters and weapons, but nothing happened. I browsed the earlier pages of this thread and a couple of other threads on GBAtemp, and it seems you need to use Loadiine if you want to unlock the DLC characters if you haven't bought them?
Did you try refreshing the character select screen after changing the values?
I have the eshop version and a couple dlc packs installed so that may also have something to do with it.
I'm going to try deleting my dlc to see if that changes anything.
That's one way. Another way that I found out recently was using cafiine to unlock the dlc, but it requires having bought at least 1 dlc pack aside from the Boss Pack (Well if you want all dlc anyway. You might be able to get by with unlocking just the extra characters if all you have is the Boss Pack).
Update:
Alright I deleted the dlc I had bought and tried the unlock codes again and they still worked for me. So it's either because I have the eshop version of the game or you changed the wrong values.
Oh, It might also be because the characters are labeled as "unlocked" in my save.
I'll try it again with a fresh save and see what happens.

Yeah, I tried enterring and exiting the Bazaar (so the game saves), playing a mission, and resetting the game all together (going back to the wii u home menu, and then starting HW up again), nothing worked. The characters would stay locked, and if I disconnected and reconnected Gecko dNet, the lock would be back to 00 (even if I've saved with it being on 01).
I've gotten all the DLC up until Marin, so I'll try that method tomorrow morning. Do you still have the download link for the HW DLC files?
Alright, so the dlc character unlocks require a 2nd set of values to be activated and need at least one of their weapons in your save.
The character unlock value is also in the save file so @marc_max could probably add it to his save editor if he wanted to.

Yeah, PM me about it later. Even though these are edited dlc files it's still probably against the rules to post them.

01 = UNLOCKED

0x8CEC7 - YugaThe base game characters use 01 for being unlocked and the DLC characters, starting with Cia, use 03.
As far as I know 02 is an unused value that puts the character in a hidden state like when you beat Legend Mode and still have a couple characters to unlock. 00 will still do the same thing as 02 but only if Legend Mode is completed.
Will do that, as soon as I got 10 posts.
In the meantime I'll continue to poke around.Edit: Poking around unfortunately didn't work. I first created a pair of boots, a bell and a sword (for Toon Zelda), and then I "unlocked" the weapons and characters at (approximately) 3570A1C0 and 356D5020. I then refreshed the character screen, but no dice.
Edit2: It's working now!
Thank you Dr.Aardvark!

By the way, just out of curiosity, does anyone know the purpose of the second set of the weapon codes? When I'm editting weapons in Gecko dNet the code for every weapon is immediately repeated. The second set is preceded by a number that denotes which "number" the weapon is in the list (e.g the 7th weapon in the list will have 00000007 in front of the 03000000). When my game saves, the second set is automatically updated. Does the first set affect the stats of the weapon while the second set affects the "looks"?
I remember seeing that before. I think it's data from the save file as i'm pretty sure it updates to match the values above it when the game saves.
not too sure though since I didn't pay too much attention to it.
Yeah, just editting the first set is enough to change the stats, looks and abilities of the weapon.
Ok, so I think I've figured it out. I think the 1st set is the weapon data during missions, while the second set permanently saves the data.
You know those skills you unlock by killing a certain amount of enemies? You have to kill those enemies during missions (obviously), but when you press start and check out your weapon, you will find the KO counter has decreased by the amount of enemies you killed. However, if you quit the mission without finishing it, the game will reset the counter back to what it was before you started the mission (because you only keep things like unlocked skills when finishing the mission). Therefore there must be two weapon datas stored: one temporary one, for during missions (the 1st set), and a "permanent" one (the 2nd set).
If you edit the 1st set outside of missions and then save (for example by going in the bazaar and then leaving), the 2nd set will immediately be updated to match the 1st, because it's as if you cleared a missio, with at the end of the mission the weapon described by set 1 equipped.

just tried this out, all i did was make a weapon to use for the rupee glitch. now when i finish a mission, i get an error of "not enough free space to create save" when i tried to inject my save with loadiine, i got an injection failed, so did i end up corrupting my save?
Edit: ok, tried injecting again, got it in 100% this time, no save errors after a mission. thanks for the tool. my friend and i can make our own weapons now, since that's what we were after

I feel like school, back when I was actually in school, was more entertaining though, because of how much I get to interact with people, hang out with friends, and other stuff like that. All I get to talk to at work is my boring coworkers lol
