ROM Hack (REQUEST) Persona Q Save File or Editor

[cokacommando]

Hey all, I was just wondering if someone could either dump a 100% or close to 100% save file for Persona Q Shadow of The Labyrinth for 3DS...or if someone is up to the challenge, you could try to explain to me how to make a save editor...thanks in advance!!

Here's the save from my USA cart.
Strangely enough i can (or could last i tried) edit it with my EUR powersaves. haha So if there's anything specific you want in a PQ save i can probably do it with that if it still works.
I think i did pretty much everything on this save though with it if i remember right.

Will this work on a digital copy or no?

Don't see why it won't as long as you have a way to inject the save (SaveDataFiler, SVDT and whatever other save managers there is).

SWEEET! Thanks a bunch!

 

[Shadowtrance]

No probs
That was dumped with SaveDataFiler btw.

Hmm...so now that a 100% clear save file is available, will there be work on a editor ?

I got the checksum updating, but the only thing I've had time to find so far is the Yen.

Edit: Assuming I remembered the right linker options to make gcc statically link this, you should be able to use PQChk to update the checksum for now. Drag and drop your save into the exe and it should take care of it for you.

Question, since you were able to find a way to edit money/yen, would it be possible to edit a persona's level ?

Also, if that is true, would you be able to create a QR-Code using that edited persona ?

Plus, I recall some personas can not be made into QR-Codes (I think some of the event/DLC ones)

Would it be possible to remove that restriction ?

I don't know right now. I'm still messing around with the saves. If anyone wants to editing a shot, here's what I do know so far:

Character Data:

Spoiler

Starts at 0x8A7B
I *think* this is the order:

They're spaced 156 bytes apart.
I haven't really done much with these besides HP and MP so far. That's about it right now.

Inventory:

Spoiler

Starts at 0x966F;
60 Items, spaced 14 bytes apart
2 bytes
Still working on them. 1-60 are Yu's swords + Dummy data. Haven't had time to go any further.

Yen:

Spoiler

At 0x84DB
4 bytes long

After you're done, use my tool posted earlier to update the checksum, or it will say it's corrupted.

Interesting, it appears the "equip" persona are a bit tricky to data mine.

Hmm...would it be easier to edit the persona that has been summoned (in party) or one saved in the assistant's log-book ?

 

[kiokoman]

Thanks for the info. i was able to set the main character to have 255 hp 255 mp and all the stats of the persona to 99

0x8a93 0x8a95 0x8a97 0x8a99 0x8a9b 0x8a9c 0x8a9f

same pattern apply for the rest of the team

0x8a7b level

0x8a7f 0x8a80 0x8a81 main exp

something that have to do with the skill are at 0x8a83 0x8a84 , randomly modifing that value disabled the ability to use the skill in battle

0x84db 0x84dc 0x84dd yen

0x856a 0x856b 0x856c exp sub-persona <xxx> not working or at least is only one of the available sub persona

 

[breaktemp]

@kiokoman

Would that be the level of the party or the level of the equipped persona ?

* thanks in advance *

@kiokoman

* thanks in advance *

main pg and equipped persona, not the sub-persona, i'm working only on the main character. the pattern is the same for the other in party as jk say

spaced 156 bytes apart.

 

[breaktemp]

Sorry about that, I meant "sub" personas "

I could not recall the terminology...since everyone could have 2 personas in this game.

But I will keep my ear to the ground for Sub-Persona editing.

* Mainly Sub-Persona Level Editing *

 

[kiokoman]

added it to the list check it

 

[kiokoman]

sub persona not working, it seems that every sub persona have his own address

 

[breaktemp]

Hmm, now that is interesting...like a different address based on which party member has it equipped ?

Or is it more the slots they are in on the sub-persona menu ?

I wonder if the DLC persona would show up as dummy data if you have now purchase them ?

@breaktemp
One of the first things I found was where it stores the sub persona equipped. The only reason I left it out, is because it seems it has to be in your stock of personas in order to work right. When I changed Yu's, it was level 0 and had no skills. Also, if DLC is anything like SMTIV, it's all gonna show up as "???" when I do find it.

 

[breaktemp]

@JK_

Cool, so the persona has to be equipped to edit eh ?

* rather in you stock that you can freely equip with your party *

Here is a collection of my Persona-Q QR-Codes :

Would you be able to scan and summon one on your game...then try to edit the level to 1 ?

If that is successful, could you create a QR-Code of that level 1 persona ?
