Rock and stone!

Deep Rock Galactic Save Editor

This is a standalone DRG save editor written in python (3.6.12), using PyQt5 (5.9.2) and PySide2 (5.15.2) and packaged using the fman build system.

THIS IS NOT UPDATED FOR UPDATE 35! THERE ARE NO GUARANTEES IT WILL WORK. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK! Just updated for U35! There are likely to be bugs, see the Troubleshooting section!

I have largely moved on from this project, so no new features are planned, no major updates are in the pipeline, and only simple bug fixes will be performed. You are welcome to fork and continue the project on your own, just give credit.

Requirements

• Windows 7 (or compatibility mode)
• ???

Installation

Download the DRG Save Editor.zip file and extract the zip file and start the editor using the "start editor.cmd" batch file.

Known Issues

• The editor works by looking for specific values in the raw data of the save, it doesn't decode the data into a nice, neat python object. As a result if certain things aren't present in the save (e.g., >0 forged overclocks, certain resources) the editor will malfunction and give nonsensical results. The solution is to acquire at least one of the resources in game then use the editor.

Troubleshooting

If the editor fails to start, please add a second line to the "start editor.cmd" that's just "pause". This will let you see any error messages that will be necessary for bug fixes.

If the editor opens but doesn't edit your save properly (i.e., values not being read properly, changes not being reflected in-game, etc) please open an issue, describe the problem as thoroughly as you can, and attach a copy of your save file from BEFORE any edits were attempted.

Usage

ALWAYS BACKUP YOUR SAVE FILE!

The editor will make a backup of the save file you open in the same folder as the save file with the extension of .old. The editor makes this backup at the moment you open the save file.

The editor should be pretty self-explanatory, see the screenshot below.

Some notes:

• There is a context menu in the overclock tree listing to add overclocks to the inventory
• You can CTRL+Click on overclocks to select more than one
• Changing XP values will update the other relevant fields when the focus changes (i.e., click on a different part of the program or another program entirely)
• If you have promotions beyond Legendary 3 those promotions will be preserved as long as the drop-down is set to "Legendary 3+". If you don't have enough promotions for a specific dwarf and set them to "Legendary 3+" it will keep whatever the original value was.
