0. How to get Xbox 360 Saves onto and working in GFFeditor or FirstBlight (SKIP IF ON PC)
A. Getting Started
I. Open Horizon (included in .rar)
II. Now it will auto load your device
III. Games > Dragon Age 2 > then drag your save out, it looks like 0x5d2a6423_1_u!0 on the desktop
B. FirstBlight
I. Just open FirstBlight and then open your save, very simple
II. Once done editing make sure you save and then open your save in Horizon (drag into middle of program)
III. Now hit 'Save, Rehash, and Resign' and when that is done, just drag back into the Device Explorer in Horizon
C. GFFeditor
I. Open your save in wxPIRS and extract 'Savegame.das and 'Savegame.das.x'
II. Now open GFFeditor and open your save and edit until you are done
III. Open Dragon Age Checksum Fix and then first open 'Savegame.das' and then 'Savegame.das.x'
IV. Now open your save in Horizion and go to the 'Contents' tab and then click on 'Saves'
V. Right-Click on 'Savegame.das' and hit replace and replace it with the modified one and do same for 'Savegame.das.x'
III. Now hit 'Save, Rehash, and Resign' and when that is done, just drag back into the Device Explorer in Horizon
1. Open your savegame.das in GFFeditor
A. Character Model Swapping
I. First Select your character (Hawke: 'Savegame_PlayerChar' > 'Savegame_PlayerChar_Char' > 'Savegame_Appearance'; Party Characters: 'Savegame_Partylist' > 'Savegame_PartyPoolMembers' > Then choose the character > 'Savegame_Appearance'
II. Then open 'Models.txt' and put the ID into the boxes for 'Savegame_Appearance_Type' and 'Savegame_Appearance_Original_Type'
III. Now make sure the SEX (OPTIONAL FOR CREATURES) is correct for the model you are swapping for so go to 'Savegame_Appearance_Gender' and edit it correctly (1 = MALE; 2 = FEMALE)
IV. Now make sure the RACE (OPTIONAL FOR CREATURES) is correct so minimize 'Savegame_Appearance' and a little below that should be 'Savegame_Creature_Race' and edit it correctly (1 = DWARF; 2 = ELF; 3 = HUMAN)
V. This part is optional and is about the FACE. Open 'Faces.txt' and choose the face you want to use (em_orsino = ELF MALE _ First Enchanter Orsino; hf_mother = HUMAN FEMALE _ Leandra) and you need to edit 'Savegame_Appearance_Morph_Name' which is in 'Savegame_Appearance'
B. Weapon/Armor Model Swapping
I. If you want to edit items equipped then for HAWKE go to 'Savegame_Player_Char' > ‘Savegame_PlayerChar_Char' > 'Savegame_Equipment_Items' then select the item
For items equipped to Party Member go to 'Savegame_PartyPoolMembers' > Then choose the character > 'Savegame_Equipment_Items' then select the item
For all items in your inventory go to ‘Savegame_PartyPoolMembers' > 'Savegame_Backpack' then select the item
II. Open either 'All IDs in DA2.txt' and try to find the ID for the item you are looking for or go to 'Weapon IDs [INCOMPLETE].txt and then select the ID out of the ones that have been verified and replace it with the value in 'TEMPLATERESREF'
C. Weapon/Armor Effect Editing
I. If you want to edit items equpped then for HAWKE go to 'Savegame_Player_Char' > ‘Savegame_PlayerChar_Char’ > 'Savegame_Equipment_Items' then select the item
For items equipped to Party Member go to 'Savegame_PartyPoolMembers' > Then choose the character > 'Savegame_Equipment_Items' then select the item
For all items in your inventory go to ‘Savegame_PartyPoolMembers' > 'Savegame_Backpack' then select the item
II. Go to the item then go to 'Item_Properties' and now open 'Effects.txt'
III. Now first make sure what you are swapping out by searching for the ID in the list and then search for a replacement and swap it out and continue to do so until you are done
IV. Each effect will have a number that tells of how powerful it will be. You need to go 'Item_Property_Powers" and this part can be a bit tricky. (1082130432 = 4x; 1097859072 = 15) For Xbox 360 players you can use FirstBlight
D. Adding Abilities
I. For Hawke: 'Savegame_Player_Char’ > 'Savegame_Playerchar_Char' > 'Savegame_Creature_Stats' > 'Savegame_Abilitylist'
For Party Members: 'Savegame_Partylist’ > 'Savegame_PartyPoolMembers' > choose character > 'Savegame_Creature_Stats' > 'Savegame_Abilitylist'
II. Now visit any of these links: Warrior Talents; Rogue Talents; Mage Talents; Companion Talents; DLC Companion Talents and then right click on any talent in 'Savegame_Abilitylist' and hit "COPY" then right click again and hit "PASTE"
III. Now edit the newly pasted ability and swap the ID out with an ID for a talent tree you want to add
IV. Now "PASTE" a few more lines into the Ability List and add talents and trees until you are done.
E. Re-Unlocking Party Members
I. This is to re-unlock any party member who has become inaccessible so first go to 'Savegame _Partylist' > 'Savegame_PartyPoolPembers' > choose character > 'Savegame_PartyMembers'
II. Now if the character is locked it will be show a “3” now you need to change it. (1 = Party Member is selected in game; 2 = Selectable via party screen; 3 = Locked out of Party Screen)
III. Now save it and that character is usable once again.
F. Friendship/Rivalry
I. This is to change how much a party member is to liking or hating you; first go to 'Savegame_PartyList' > 'Savegame_Approval_List' > choose character (refer to 'Savegame_PartyPoolMembers' for help) > 'Savegame_Party_Approval_Level'
II. Now just change the value for that. 100 = 100% Friendship; 0 = Neutral; -100 = 100% = Rivalry
G. 360 ONLY: FirstBlight
I. Open your save in FirstBlight (not Savegame.das but the whole save) and just edit away.
II. Once you are done use Horizon and rehash and resign it and it should work.
III. Bonus: Clips of FirstBlight |1| |2| |3|
H. BUGFIXES: Damage Resistance/Attack Speed
I. If you are on the 360 you can just use FirstBlight and edit the value, for PC you can do 'Savegame_Player_Char' > 'Savegame_PlayerChar_Char' > 'Savegame_StatList'
II. For Damage Resistance scroll down until you see the third number a 32, it should look like this, my damage resistance is 25
For Attack Speed scroll down until you see the third number a 42, it should look like this, my attack speed is 85
III. So just edit them to the correct number and you are done
I. BUGFIXES: Empty Storage Chest from Post-Campaign
I. This is caused by both storage chests using a different container and while this isn't a direct fix it will let you get your items back. Go to 'Savegame_Campaign'
II. Now you should see 'Campaign_CIF_Entry_Area_List' and 'Campaign_CIF_Entry_Area' and now change both of them from "dae421ar_player_home_nt" to "dae221ar_player_home_nt"
III. Load your save after doing what's nessary to get it working and now you should be in the Act II Hawke Estate so go and grab your items and go to the World Map and go to the Hawke Estate in the map and it should go back to the Post-Campaign Estate and now go back and dump all your items into the chest.
J. Notes
I. Sometimes, depending on conditions in-game, editing the friendship/rivalry for party members doesn't always work correctly so try changing things around in game and try it again.
II. 360 ONLY: Extracting the .das/.das.x from a Warrior character doesn't always extract correctly (make sure the .das.x is exactly 4 bytes) and even from editing these saves come out corrupt the most.
III. Swapping in models for large creatures such as High Dragons or Varterrals will make the character in game be invisible but still a large creature.
IV. 360 ONLY: Whenver you edit your save you MUST always rehash and resign for it to work on your 360 again.
2. Now you are done and if I can think of anything else to add I will be sure to edit the post
*If the Xbox 360 sections are against the rules then contact me and I will remove those sections
