To find your save games, you will need to browse to:

C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\.madgarden\DR2C

Or the name of your drive. You can search for DR2C if needs be.

Inside you will find a number of files, save files are
0.slot
0.save

and so on for 1.save, 1.slot and your other saves.

The file we will be editing is .save file, which contains all the data on items stats and characters.

I RECOMMEND MAKING A BACKUP OF THE CONTENTS OF THIS FOLDER IF YOU DON'T WANT TO LOSE A SAVE. IT'S EASY TO MAKE A MISTAKE AND MESS THEM UP.

The save files can be opened and edited in notepad since it is just text, though I would recommend something like notepad++ since it has paragraphs. Notepad just bundles it into giant lines.

It's still easy to edit using cntrl+f to find the specific parts I will mention so it's not a problem.
IF you use notepad, when I say "add a new line", don't, just add it next to the previous word with a single space.

Once you are in, you can easily add supplies - ammo, food, petrol, meds

Search (cntrl + f) for

1 trunk.loot!

You should find part of the file that reads:


The left most number is the amount you have - in this case I have set them all to 9999 (I am not sure if this is a maximum - have not tried any higher) (Line numbers may differ depending on your characters - ignore that)

the next number refers to the supply it represents. Below is a guide:

1 trunk.loot! - food
2 trunk.loot! - fuel
3 trunk.loot! - medicine
4 trunk.loot! - pistol
5 trunk.loot! - rifle
6 trunk.loot! - shotgun

Once you have edited them, just save and launch the game.

This bit is a little trickier but not much.

Below the part showing your supplies, you will find your items.

NOTE: If you have no items, nothing will be there


Search (cntr+f) for

0 trunk.loot!

Beneath this line you can enter items. To do this add a line thusly:

x y trunk.weapon!

Repalce X and Y with desired values. X denotes the amount of this item and Y denotes the item itself. (ITEM CODES IN NEXT SECTION)

E.g. 94 is the number for a broom, so

1 94 trunk.weapon!

this would give you 1 broom.

3 94 trunk.weapon!

this would give you 3 brooms. And so on.

To add other items, simply add another line and type in a new item.


Here you can see the highlighted parts where I have entered my items (14 items) and then the save file continues onto other parts. Again line numbers may differ depending on number of characters. Dead characters remain in the save file.



Some items cannot be moved from a characters equipped slot, e.g. the wand, there is a "nodrop" slot for this. You can however change this using the save file. To put an item directly into their equipped slot, search for the chracters name, e.g. Bryn

Then keep progressing through the text until you find

21 2 #c .weapona!
25 2 #c .weaponb!
22 2 #c .weaponc!

Weapon A, B, and C are the 3 you currectly have equipped. The first number can be changed just as it could for the inventory weapons. The second number refers to the character number, so in this case I was editing character 2. Note that I only had 1 character at the time, but character 1 (my first) had died but his data remains in the save file. Do not edit this second number.

I have not yet done all the items but I have a relatively good list.
You can easily just try a number not on here to see what you get - again backup the save incase your number causes it to crash which I imagine is what will happen if you use an invalid number (or it might default to 0)

NOTE: Some items are set so they cannot be traded or dropped. E.g. the wand. It is still possible to swap them around characters but it via a bug that I cannot reliably reproduce. So be warned, it may be better to put these directly into your characters equipped slot.

Editing the characters stats is even easier. Open the save, and serch for

#c .stat!

You will find a list of stats, and there will be a seperate lsit for each character.


The highlighted section is the characters stats.

6 12 1 #c .stat!
0 12 1 #c .knownstat!
0 12 1 #c .bonus!

Each stat has 3 parts, and each part has 3 numbers.
1st number: actual value (this is the one we will edit)
2nd number: which stat is this (key below)
3rd number: character number (don't touch)

So if we want all our stats to be known (this means we can see our stats ingame) we can change the lef most number in the .knownstat! row to a 1 instead of a 0

1 12 1 #c .knownstat! -this stat will now be known.

Of more interest though is the left mist number in the .stat! row, this is the one to change to edit your stats. Values seem to go from 0-6, with 0 being lowest and 6 being the max. No harm seems to come from entering values higher than this though. I normally enter 99, and also 99 into the .bonus! far left number if I am just trying to max it out. It's worth doing this since if you then lose 1 morale ingame, it will drop to 98 and so still really be maxed out.

NOTE: when I entered 99 I noticed the smiley face that shows how good the stat is started flashing, suggesting 6 is not the max. The flashing did not occur when I tried 7,8,9 so I do not know what the max is, but again I just use 99.


Below is a list showing which middle number corresponds to what stat:


12: ?
11: fitness
10: movement speed*
9: strength
8: shooting
7: mechanical
6: medical
5: loyalty
4: wits
3: ?
2: composure
1: morale
0: attitude

*If you set this to 99 you're gonna fly lol. I recommend 10 for movement speed with 0 bonus

I have not yet managed to work out what 12 and 3 do. Think it might be another gun related stat relevant to actual fighting.

You can also see the perk and trait listed above, you can type in different ones if you wish, get the names from the character creation screen.


HEALTH:

The health stat is near the player name, search for c .health!
You will find something like...

3 1 #c .health!

You will have 1 of these for each character (in different places though)
The first number is the health number (we will change this) and the second is your characters number, don't touch this.

You can set it to 99 but I think 6 is the max, and in this case no matter what you set it to it will go back to 6.

If you search for

vehicle.which!

you will find a single number next to it. Change this to change your vehicle. 1 is the starting car, 2 is the van, and you'll just have to work out the rest...


You can also search for

0 ' car-armor <to
3 ' car-max-armor <to
2 ' car-speed <to
4 ' car-max-speed <to
1 ' car-mpg <to
4 ' car-repair <to

any of these values.

If you want your car to not break change whatever value is next to this line (mine was 0)
0 ' car-armor <to
to 9

I have not experimented beyond that which is in this guide, but you can see in the save file a large number of stats both for characters and your car, your days and events.. You can play around with them but I had no desire to work out what is what.
