ROM Hack RELEASE XC2SaveNetThingy: A Xenoblade Chronicles 2 Save Editor

[RichardTheKing]

I ran into that issue as well using 010 Editor to edit a save file. The game seems to have some checks for data that isn't how it's supposed to be. I don't get the feeling it's anticheat, but more "I better make sure everything is right or I'll crash". Finding whatever flag or flags are responsible will be challenging at best because there's over 65,000 of them...

But, would you mind detailing your process from dumping the romfs, to your modifications, to reinserting the files? I want to see if I can recreate your issue and maybe see what's going on.

1. NXDumpTool - > Gamecard Dump -> Split files bigger than 4 GB = Yes; Save data to CFW directory = Yes; Use update/DLC = 0100E95004038800 v917504 (0.0.14.0) (UPD) (SD card)
2. Once done, copy bf2.ard and bf2.arh to Xenoblade2Set folder.
3. Run quickbms_4gb_files.exe.
4. Once that's done, delete all extracted files except for the common.bdat file inside the bdat folder; only that should be important.
5. Launch BdatEditor.exe, open common.bdat with it, edit tables, save each table as I'm done with them.
6. Copy the bdat folder (with common.bdat inside) to a "modified" folder, then run 1.reimport.bat, to put the supposedly-edited common.bdat back into bf2.ard.
7. Run 2.split.cmd to split bf2.ard into three parts (3.99 GB, 3.99 GB, 2.26 GB) inside a bf2.ard folder.
8. Copy the bf2.ard folder into atmosphere/contents/0100E95004038000/romfs, or whatever it is.

No worries.

Try just putting the modified common.bdat file in atmosphere/contents/0100E95004038000/romfs, instead of repacking it into the bf2.ard.

I've only ever patched one other game, and I need to repack the modded files back into their proprietary format. Just putting the directly modified file on the SD in the appropriate directory was enough.

EDIT: That did not work for me. And in fact, doing what you did doesn't even let the game load for me. After starting the application, it stays on a black screen and does nothing until I manually close the game. It only works after removing the bf2.ard file from the atmosphere/contents/0100E95004038000/romfs folder. Since my SD card is exFat formated, I just need to put the b2f.ard file in that directory, rather than splitting it. But otherwise, I have no idea what the issue is, especially since I can't replicate your issue and instead run into my own!

Didn't work, putting only the common.bdat file in romfs.
I can load the game just fine, though, but none of the changes seem to apply.

Well, I guess modding the game's just not possible, unfortunately. Oh well.

Appreciate it if someone could let me know if the save editor have an option to edit WP in XenoBlade Chronicales 2. I opened it with my save file but did not see any where for modifying WP. I may be overlooking it but if there is a way, please let me know.

Can this raises the community level in torna!?

How would I know if the 1.reimport.bat was working? When I run it it finds the common.bdat and on the next line only keeps flipping \ and / and nothing else really shows up underneath. Also, since I changed around some models and I brought the directory for the models folder with the bdat folder, will it also be added to the bf2.ard?

 

[ElectricRustyBYT]

Alright, on a completely different note how would I be able to swap models so that they work in "flashy" cutscenes and not just T-Posing during them? This is the only place I can think of that could help with this problem

 

[laitokhun]

I want to change my save file to new game+ . anyone can help

[Skeet1983]

Hi guys. I have been playing X2 and am still a bit early in game. Is there anything I can do with X2 Save Editor to make game progress easier, such as making Characters stronger? Thoughts and help appreciated

 

[Anxiety_timmy]

my sd card is Exfat too and injecting the modded common.bdat file into b2f.ard works

maybe its your save backup try with another backup or make a backup with another program

 

[veekay]

Is it possible to change the first blade summon with this? You know, the one the game forces you to summon and then won't allow you to delete it.
