Scripting and Reverse Engineering / Finding keyitems? [FF7]

« on: 2006-05-16 21:49:20 »

Hello again. This time I'm looking for an suggestion as to how one might find the keyitems from a savemap.

I found something inside of the Jenova source, but it doesn't make much sense:

Code: [Select]

void CEditItems::LoadKeyItems()
{
int i;
char buf[25];
for (i=0;i<51;i++)
{
strcpy(buf," ");
strcat(buf,rgKeyItem[i].name);
m_KeyItemList.AddString(buf);
if (ff7->keyitems[div(i,8).quot] & (1 << (div(i,8).rem)))
{
m_KeyItemList.SetCheck(i,1);
}
}
}
So, I loaded eight bytes (as FF7.h and the wiki says) and went to the correct offset: 0x0BE4 + 0x09 (because of the PC header). However, when using this savemap, slot 15, my eight bytes are this:

Code: [Select]

    [1] => 0
    [2] => 199
    [3] => 255
    [4] => 207
    [5] => 15
    [6] => 0
    [7] => 0
    [8] => 0
Any ideas?

P.S. Thanks in advance, just for being here. This community has gotten me so much father along with my technical understnding of Final Fantasy VII.

Scripting and Reverse Engineering / Hmm...weapon&armor id/offsets?

« on: 2006-05-12 03:05:38 »

Hello, I've been digging through the wiki and jenova source and couldn't find any information on the ID of weapons or armor. When looking through the savemap, I see  "0x1C 1 byte  Equipped weapon". So, when I go to a save with Clouds inital equipment, go to the correct offset and read one byte, both the weapon and armor ID are 0x00. Any ideas?

Sorry if I'm becoming a nuisance. I did look for it.

Scripting and Reverse Engineering / Calculating the FF7 save file checksum?

« on: 2006-05-01 01:02:39 »

Hi everyone, I've been lurking the forums for a little while, researching the save file format. I haven't found anything related to this and a pointer in the right direction would be great.

I hope to become a semi-active member of this quiet community and would love to speak out more often.

 


EDIT: While we're on the topic of the FF7 save file format, does anyone have a clue about the PC save file header? I don't know anything about disassembly but I'm very willing to learn. Hope it doesn't seem like I'm trying to leech off of you guys. Cheers.
