BattleTech Save Editor

Please Note that Due to Nexus's current policies that strip mod authors of control of their works. This mod will no longer be updated here on Nexus. All future releases will take place on Mods-In-Exile.

This editor allows you to modify your save files. Please note that this is a work in progress as I have not completely interpreted all the data in the save file yet, so I will be updating this as I find the time.

Notes:

I recommend having a backup of your save before you modify it (just in case). If you are modifying a steam save, you will need to keep the save file name the same or it wont show up.

Current Abilities:

• []Change your company's Funds

  []Add/Remove items to your inventory (weapons, equipment, mech chassis, etc...)

  []Scan your BattleTech installation directory to make adding inventory easier

  []Pilot Skills and Abilities can be edited

  []Change your access to the Black market

  []Change your reputation with the major factions

  []remove star systems and contracts to recover saves from mod removal (in some cases)

  []move to any star system (still experimental)

  []Add and Remove the mechs in your mechbay

  Ideas for Future Abilities:

  • []Edit the mechs in your mechbay

  []replay Flashpoints

  []resurrect fallen pilots

  []add new pilots

  []allow Ronin pilots to appear for hire again

  Known Problems/Limitations

  • Currently only available for 64 bit windows (I have tested Windows 10, but older versions should work)

    This mod is only available on Mods-In-Exile, if you have downloaded it from somewhere else other than on Nexus, where an old version remains hosted it has been stolen and I cannot guarantee it is free of malware.
