Metroid Prime 4 Beyond save editing

This how to edit Metroid Prime 4 saves. I am not sure save order other than it might be all the manual saves then auto saves. if you have only used one save slot it should be easy to work out. searching for VSM in text might be the start of each save. Save Editor There is now a save editor based on the values Genesis_Nova found and py file that OblivionReign created This is link to it. The py file is also attached to this post https://www.mediafire.com/file/o3mxi7eigt1rpty/mp4_save_editor_enhanced.zip/file *Save editor can mod each save *mod items *mod scans *odd number saves should be manual and even should be auto, also skips completed saves Some abilities might need more than one value edited. Check further down after item list if there a note. if you are using editor with a save that as completed save because it dosen't have a scan section it might effect the order of other saves. Saves Have Checksum There a Checksum fixer in zip file unzip and drop save onto bat file it will fix the checksum so won't need to use Hxd to fix it. The Checksum fixer uses Bucanero's cli app and a bat file. Bat file is a patch file if you have experience with ps4 save wizard you can add quick codes to it. Fix Checksum With Hxd The saves have a checksum it is the first 4 bytes. the next 4 bytes is the whole size of save minus the first 8 bytes if your not changing save size you can ignore this. the checksum covers from after 8th byte or from 35 to end of save. the checksum is CRC-32/JAMCRC. i used hxd to fix checksum. i selected the whole save minus the first 8 bytes you can go into edit and select block. start is 8 and end you can just type ffffff. you then go into analysis select checksum. in generate checksums box select custom CRC (32bit) then select custom crc... in the custom CRC box you need to put 04C11DB7 in poly, FFFFFFFF in intial and in output xor 00000000. also need to tick in and out for reflection. click ok for this and previous box and you should have checksum. the bytes in checksum needs to be reversed you can see in picture below what i mean. both checksum and size are in little endian meaning bytes are reversed. Editing To find green shards search for 66 51 03 1A shards will be after that in reverse float. max green shards is 0000af46. also max amount you can have is also after the amount you have so if the id doesn't work you can search for max shard value and go back 4 bytes it looks like for items its id then amount then cap total repeated twice (so thats 4 byte id and 3 reverse float values). any id with 00 00 80 3F repeated 3 times is probably something unlocked. will need a completed save to see what the right floats should be after the ids. I don't think id change order so not a problem but if the ids are like the scan section it would be float values then Id To find scan section search for AF 05 00 00 00 you should find a section similar to whats in picture. all you need to do is put 00 3F in front of the Ids the ids range from 00 to 0A. the 00 ones are easy workout after filling the others in. As mentioned below changing all might cause a softlock it could be the 0A ones. in picture below in the boxes is the ids here are some ids i got from a end game save with their float values. I added names that genesis nova found Name ID Float 1 Float 2 Float 3 Float 1 to dec Float 3 to dec Psychic Glove 10 C0 F5 03 00 00 80 3F 00 00 80 3F 00 00 80 3F 1 1 ?* 07 66 A5 04 00 00 80 3F 00 00 80 3F 00 00 80 3F 1 1 Teleporter Patches 1C 2B 9F 08 00 00 80 3F 00 00 80 3F 00 00 80 3F 1 1 ? 79 6A EA 0C 00 00 80 3F 00 00 80 3F 00 00 80 3F 1 1 ?* 35 AA 9D 0E 00 00 80 3F 00 00 80 3F 00 00 80 3F 1 1 ? 22 44 44 10 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 80 3F 1 Super Thunder Shot BD A6 E8 13 00 00 80 3F 00 00 80 3F 00 00 80 3F 1 1 Psychic Shot 6D 69 68 18 00 00 80 3F 00 00 80 3F 00 00 80 3F 1 1 Green Shards 66 51 03 1A 00 00 AF 46 00 00 AF 46 F0 23 74 49 22400 999999 Thunder Chip 04 97 8C 1E 00 00 80 3F 00 00 80 3F 00 00 80 3F 1 1 Gal Fed Mech Parts 64 A9 21 23 00 00 80 3F 00 00 80 3F 00 00 80 3F 1 1 ?
