Altering FF8 executable in Steam release
« on: 2020-02-04 14:37:57 »
I'm currently translating FF8 and found that text and graphics from triple triad game stored inside the main executable. I'm curious about how Steam would behave if I edit executables from 2013 and 2019 versions of the game.

Does it support 2019 Remaster?
The thing is that I never edited memory before and don't think I can pull it off. On the other hand there are plenty of software that can change text everywhere in the game. Texture replacing is as simple as copy&paste in Hex editor.

Thanks! Everything turned out much simpler than I thought. But as far as I'm concerned RaW does not support Remastered version and the question is still relevant. How Steam would behave if I edit FF8.exe?
