About Talismans

Credit goes to the [Chinese thread]


Offset is 0x7210 w.r.t the beginning of the file
Each talisman occupies 0x30

from 0x7210:
05 00 XX 00 01 00 is a fixed pattern(?Not sure) where XX is the ID of the talisman.
In the image: 05 00 38 00 01 00 is "Fire Resist Low Talisman"
Note: the ID != the skill. ID is what's displayed in the game as the "name".

from 0x7230:
00 00 00 00 AA 00 00 00 XX 04 YY 04
AA is the rarity where 00 = R1, 01 = R2, 02 = R3...
XX = 1st skill, YY = 2nd skill
In the image: AB 04 CC 04, skill1 = fire resistant large, skill2 = element attack up large
It's a huge project to test out all the talisman skills. Stay patient.


Important note:
It seems that the order of talismans in the save file is determined by the order in which you obtained them not the displayed order in the box.

Go to the egg managing cat and combine the hacked egg fragments. The combined egg should hatch dinovaldo.

Hey all o/

Seen a few people looking for a save editor for Stories and I'd been meaning to throw something hex editory together for a while now, so I made this. All it does is max your money and Potions. It could be edited to do more if people tell me the offsets. I might mess with it a little more later, but it seems usable now, albeit with little to no error checking, so back up your save. Just make sure the mhr_game0.sav is in the same folder as the executable and there shouldn't be any issues...

I ain't taking no responsibility if your game breaks because you want to cheat.

Anyway, it's written in C++. I used system("pause") so it'll only work on Windows lol. I think that's everything now! The exe is attached to the post, and the sauce can be found here.

Lemme know any issues and I'll try to help <3

Edit: Not sure where save editors are supposed to go if I'm honest. I was torn between here and 3DS Homebrew, but since the Hyrule Warriors Legends one resides here, I decided to stick this here too. Shout at me and/or report the post if I got it wrong!

Misc findings on the save data structure can be found here if you're interested: https://pastebin.com/Afnrd2i0

It would be great if we could gather the fragmented information in this thread and put it in the front page. There is quite a lot, certainly enough to make a half decent save editor. Pretty sure there will be a save editor very soon. I will try to make a save format wiki about MHST this weekend. Will keep this thread updated

You just need a hex editor. I'm using HxD. Pretty neat and handy.

Hello @secXsQuared silly question, can you look into my save and add a dinovaldo, deviljho, and a bracy egg to my save. Thank you
I can't hack you a deviljho and a bracy egg since I'm not sure how those work yet.

For dino, check my previous post and follow the instruction there.

I'm afraid that it's unlikely to happen since all weapons stats are hardcoded in the monster series game. 4U was possible since there were random stat relics.

Update: Finished the ItemSet for all items except for key items x999. Check my previous post for the actual executable.

Important note: I have yet figured out how to trigger the "unlock" mechanism in game. Doesn't seem like holding the item unlocks its corresponding weapon/armor crafting quests.

EDIT: I can't figure out how to unlock the crafting quests except for obtaining materials in Battle/in game. For now I'm changing to quantity to 986x so people don't get stuck. Maybe modifying quest availability bits helps.

Update2:
Many people are asking for the DLC Dinovaldo. I will make an editor and hopefully combine all functionalities into that. I absolutely SUCK at UI so prepare for some commandline stuff.

I will NOT make an editor that does everything because I don't really have much time after the fall break (screw you exams/assignments). What I'm making is just a temporary solution...

Is it possible that it unlocks by hunting the corresponding monster at least once? From what I've played, even if there isn't enough material (points) to finish the crafting quest, those quest still pops up. For example, I hunted a random Gendrome for the first time in a non-story random encounter and its crafting quest immediately appears (albeit I didn't have enough stuff to make them).

Of course I will have gained 'some' material after I hunted it, but if holding the item like above doesn't do the trick - this is the only other option I can think of.

Yes it's possible as long as you obtain some items. However, if you are already holding 999x a certain material, obtaining new instances does not seem to trigger the unlocking. Therefore I changed the quantity to 986x each.
