[Vertix]

Instructions for the Technologically impaired:

1. Download Python 3.x (at current writing this is
2. Install Python. make sure you check the "set PATH" checkbox when installing.
3. It's recommended you reboot after installing.
4. Open up a Command Prompt. open the start menu and type "CMD" then hit enter.
5. In the command prompt, type

   pip install protobuf

   to install the required dependencies.
6. Go to , click "Clone or download", then click "Download Zip".
7. Unzip this to a folder.
8. Navigate to that folder in the command prompt (use the CD command. if you're having trouble, look
9. Back up your Diablo III Save on your Switch. I prefer Checkpoint, but you can use whatever works for you.
10. Transfer your backed up save to your PC.
11. Move

    account.dat

    to the folder you unzipped the D3Editor to.
12. In the command Prompt, if you wish to change All Currencies, type

    D3Edit.py -i account.dat -o account_mod.dat -s x --all-currencies xxxx

    where -s x is the character slot you want to change (Your first character is Slot 0!) and all-currencies xxxx is the amount you want to update all currencies to.
13. If you want to change only one, or multiple separate currency types, replace

    --all-currencies

    with the currency type you want to change:
    
    --gold
    --blood-shards
    --reusable-parts
    --arcane-dust
    --veiled-crystals
    --deaths-breath
    --forgotten-souls
    --khanduran-runes
    --caldeum-nightshade
    --arreat-war-tapestries
    --corrupted-angel-flesh
    --westmarch-holy-water
    --hearts-of-fright
    --vials-of-putridness
    --idols-of-terror
    --leorics-regrets
    --vengeful-eyes
    --writhing-spines
    --devils-fangs
    
    For example, if I want to give my First slot character 1 million gold, 5000 Blood Shards, and 200 Death's Breath, I would type

    D3Edit.py -i account.dat -o account_mod.dat -s 0 --gold 1000000 --blood-shards 5000 --deaths-breath 200

    
    
14. Move

    account_mod.dat

    to the folder that previously contained account.dat, and then rename it to

    account.dat

    .
15. Transfer the newly edited save folder back to the switch.
16. Use your Save backup tool to restore the edited save.
17. Launch Diablo III and have fun!

Do I need to homebrew my switch first? Or can this be done without potentially affecting my switch?

Absolutely everything in this entire section requires homebrew (Checkpoint). You can't even get a hold of your save file at all w/o it.

Don't you just love N?

Hi!

trying to make it work but I think I did everything right here still getting same message (file gbids.json is here!!)
updated and rebooted nothing works thanks for the help!

C:\>xxxx\d3edit.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\d\D3Edit.py", line 81, in <module>
assert isfile(join(ASSET_DIR, GBIDS_FILE)), "%s doesn't exist" % (GBIDS_FILE)
AssertionError: gbids.json doesn't exist

Oh for sure.

The only reason I even want to run a CFW is to mod my save game and catch up to my retail char, and/or back it up to my PC, and of course my switch is patched

it looks like you're trying to run it from a different directory.
make sure you are running command prompt in the working directory of d3edit, i.e.
C:\xxxx>d3edit.py
using your error to give the missing command, open up command prompt, go to C:\, then type:
cd d
then you should be able to run it

No folders are ok the xxxx thing isn't real.

thanks for the help!

I get the error "D3Edit.py: error: the following arguments are requrired: -i/--in-file" . I have the -i account.dat in the cmd, so not sure why it's saying that. Any ideas?

screenshot the command prompt with identifying info removed?

 

[harmbasi]

See attached.

 

[crackmanian]

See attached.

weird. Does the folder you're in have an account.dat file?
Try instead of '-i' doing '--in-file'
or, try redownloading the master branch and running it again?

 

[harmbasi]

Yeah the account.dat file is in the same folder and I've redownloaded the files. Still same error. It's like it won't recognize the -i command.

 

[slickpsp]

This is good but hacking equipment and associated bonuses will require next level understanding of Python I take it.

Is this just for one hero or all the heros?

It would be awesome if Paragon points can be supported anytime soon. Thanks for the great work!

I think I can add support for paragon levels quickly however it would require to be at least level 1.
This is because I'm not sure how to add new data to the partitions without breaking them (haven't looked into it much yet) so that part may take some time to figure out.

https://github.com/unixtreme/D3Edit Test that fork, I just added paragon levels, I cannot test right now as I don't have the switch on me

 

[Exclamation_Point]

I’m hoping that eventually we’ll be able to allocate more than 50 points in each of the Paragon categories. Fifty is the cap for them, except for Vitality and Strength/Dexterity/Intelligence. It’d be awesome to be able to go over that.

Doesn't work for me.
I set softcore paragon level to 99999 and then 800, but each time the game loaded it had my original paragon level of 407 still there.

I suspected this may happen, there's a few different spots to edit the paragon level. Also I'm not sure if setting it to 99999 would ever even work... I'll see if I can get some time to test it and fix it because it did "seem" to work... The most time-consuming part of this is just ftping saves to the switch
