[RELEASE] Bravely Default Village Save Editor

Heyo. Since there aren't any save editors for this game, I thought I'd make at least what I can for it.
With a bit of help from Oishikatta (Thread Here, just leeching the information in the thread) and some tedious testing, I threw together a small program to edit the village.

REQUIREMENTS:
Ability to extract and insert your save (savedatafiler for example)
CIA/3DS version of the game (See here for how to use 3DS/Z) or some way to re-import the save to a retail cart
What region does it support?

USA/EUR/JP
A thanks to liomajor for info on the JP/EUR versions of the game.

What can it edit?

1. Village Building Level
2. Village Population

What can it "maybe" edit, if someone gets around to it?

1. Time left on building construction

What can it NOT edit?

1. Anything else in the game that isn't in the village.

"What about Nemesis(s?) or insert thing I want to edit here!"

If you can figure out how the save format works for that, feel free to fill me in, or throw together some code yourself.

ALWAYS MAKE A BACKUP OF YOUR SAVE JUST IN CASE!

Steps to use:

1. Extract save to PC
2. Open COLONY#.sav with the program (# can be 0, 1, or 2. Program won't let you open other files)
3. Change values in text boxes / dropdown menus
4. Save, send through savedatafiler, then play game

Note: Editing the game outside the values this program allows will almost certainly crash/freeze your game, so while you CAN edit the source code to allow you, you really shouldn't.

Yup, that was also mentioned in Oishikattas thread as well, but as this is a 'Village Editor' rather than a total save editor, I opted to not put that in, at least not yet.

 

I'm not in the know on how that works. If its not too difficult to set up, and is actually possible for this, I'd be all for it.

Thanks for testing, I don't have access to a JP/EUR version to check. Though I am curious if it works with the non-"for the sequel" version of the JP rom. I'll add that to the OP.

 

Ah, well if they can interchange with no issue, then it achieves the same thing. The info is still good.

 

I'll probably spend some time later this week to see if the nemesis(s?,es?) can be edited via this method, or if they are like the rest of the main save, and use some crazy wizardry to encode the save data. (The reason I didn't just hold off and make a full save editor)

 

Interesting. I wonder if there is an unlock flag in the save as well that would fix that, or if that is stored in main save.
Also, the various sword are the different buildings the village can have.

 

No clue on that first part. The main save uses a whole bunch of weird stuff to store things, money editing is probably the easiest thing in it. The village save was a ton easier to figure out and edit.

I'd be more than happy to add that feature, and more, to the editor, but figuring out the save is a nightmare.
