[Amuyea]

I have been working on this for a while now. I have tried to create a save editor but failed lol.

Persona 5 Scramble Base Game (1.0.0) *added*

Please backup your saves in a safe place before doing this!

Requirements

First Name and Last Name. (Strikers is 8 bytes long while Scramble is 3 bytes long)
Money Amount, Persona Points, Bonds are in Little Endian. (Same method)
It covers all of the player's saves (1 to 9), and you can change the position of the save. Like when you open the game and it keeps the last save.

More Info
I'm sure that it's possible to edit it on PC. (I do not have a PC Version to find the offsets.)

Helpful tool
Persona 5 Strikers PC Save Utility: https://github.com/zarroboogs/p5spc.saveutil
(I did Strikers PC's Save to Switch)

Otherwise, you can go to https://gbatemp.net/threads/cheat-codes-ams-and-sx-os-add-and-request.520293/ and get the codes to hack with EdiZon.

There some work being done on editing in the Save wizard discord channel it's mostly on EU and US saves your striker offsets match up to what they have found. This should be useful for either version but you need to work out where to use these skill IDs
https://www.mediafire.com/file/t5w8hacmuwvm0tu/p5s_skills.txt/file
This should be helpful for striker (US/EU) saves.

With the brynthomas80's reply, it's possible but needs more testing I'm just playing the scramble version to get far along than the new game

 

[Amuyea]

After researching on Items and Skills from brynthomas80's reply, I'm able to find more information (Persona).

However, need more help on giving the right skill names for English also the items probably.

Also with Persona Names, (I'm using Failed to fetch tweet https://twitter.com/LillianGoulston/status/1288513904071467010 mod for research ) there are some difference, i have no idea.

 

[Amuyea]

From the brynthomas80's reply, I have added Persona Skills Hex to the new sheets link in the first post
I'm cleaning up the Persona Offsets Sheets for both Strikers and Scramble

 

[Pj1980]

the file name needs changing to proper id and put in folder in edizon. this should let you edit items in slot 1 but not 100% sure as i dont have game on switch so some other stuff in file may need editing like the save file name.

Interesting, let me test it

 

[Amuyea]

Ok, it took me a long time to set up for some reason lol.
I used https://github.com/tomvita/EdiZon-SE

Then I only get the files "EdiZon/editor/scripts/" from https://github.com/WerWolv/EdiZon to replace it.

I'm not sure if I only needed to change "0" to 0 & "99" to 99 in the brynthomas80's file.

For anyone who doesn't know how to use the "save editor" in EdiZon

(Back up Save in checkpoint for backups)

Open EdiZon
Search for "Persona 5 Strikers" icon and you can see the "Beta" logo on it
Press A and select user if there are multiple users
Press -
Press A
You can see many cheats in it, *it only apply on first save slot* Apply some of them
Press X
Select Yes
Play the game

Someone's made a save editor for persona 5 striker (english version). it only edits slot 1 i think you might need dot.net framework 4.5 or higher to run unless already installed.

Nice! I have mac so I'm not able to test but I can open it What is "Full EXP for all"?
I'm working to find weapons

 

[Pj1980]

Full Experience is all the addresses that PS4 SW writes to which should be same as in English switch and pc saves. the value written is 7E037E03. here's the addresses the value is written to 001086A0, 00108720, 001087A0, 00108820, 001088A0, 00108920, 001089A0, 00108A20, 00108AA0, 00108B20, 00108BA0, 00108C20, 00108CA0, 00108D20, 00108DA0, 00108E20
Weapon addresses might be before armour in slot one before the armour addresses there some values starting at 10F124.

So I loaded up the scramble file with max stuff and all compendium. I was wondering if changing the difficulty and Japanese voice changes offsets. I am looking at save 2. I added a new persona via compendium (Jack o lantern) and saved using normal and japanese voice (Was easy and English). I was expecting to see the 192264 to change since I added a new persona to my character but the address changed was around 1914F4 and no changes to 192264.

Anyone found the flag/byte for the game to be considered new game+ or PC's character level? I want to use Lucifer for fun without reaching level 90 and new game +. My current choice was to use the converted scramble save that's at level 99 but I prefer replaying starting level 5.

edit anyway,
I ended up just looking for the level of Ren and changing it to 99 to get lucifer then reverted it to level 5. Then I'll just edit the saves through cheat engine.

 

[Pj1980]

Your level only effects hp, sp and for main character what persona they can equip. The thing is if you add all skill cards you can give any persona any skills and there a accessory called almighty sphere that makes you immune to all damage except almighty. The only reason people use Lucifer is because it strong against a lot of damage types.

 

[Amuyea]

I haven't checked about the difficulty or New game+ offsets.

I was expecting to see the 192264 to change since I added a new persona to my character but the address changed was around 1914F4 and no changes to 192264.

I believe that getting a new persona has no effect on 192264 because it was there already. However, when you give it a new skill and it should change in skills offsets. If you see a few hexes before the offsets, you can see the level of the persona.


Edited:
I will check out about the exp

Lucifer gives endless SP for most battles when built right and is new game+ exclusive. Mostly because of his level since a Silky can technically do that with edited skills. Like a typical silky would just return 2 sp per enemy while Lucifer gives 3 per enemy at the cost of 4 sp. The omnipotent sphere is too much cheats though.

 

[Pj1980]

If you want Lucifer badly then look at first post click on link for on hand / in book. Depending on game version go to the offset for on hand for that save slot. So for scramble (jap ) slot one you edit 10B486 to 01 and for striker (eng) slot one 10B4AE. I don't know if you might also have to edit in book as well. You will have to make sure you have a empty space for the persona ie if you can equip 8 you need to have 7 or less to add a persona this way.
