Need help for Message Reader and Editor

Post by Sash21 »

Hi there,

i am looking for Message Reader v1.02 or higher and Editor tool. All links here are broken, so if you have it, it would be nice if you send it to me.

Best regards,
Sascha

That message reader doesn't work with the new patches after 1.02 because we had to increase the sizes of global variables that changed all the data pointers and no one has ever updated it.

Here is a link to the latest version of the editor, which should go into your DAT folder. Yes, some of the game data can be changed but just be careful with it because if you overwrite the game data with garbage you will have problems. Always backup the stock data first.

The macros were written a long time a go so I'm guessing yes is the answer. I had to make several edits to the macros for the editor to work with the newer patches so maybe that had something to do with it. I admit that I don't know enough about it to be definitive here.
