Ghostbusters

Friday, June 19th, 2009

Wrote some code to unpack POD files, which can be found on my SVNA binary of the Unpack tool from SVN rev5 is available.

I havn’t written any code for repacking yet, and I havn’t tested if the game reads unpacked files at all yet. If you encounter any problems feel free to comment this post.

Steam Achievement Manager 5.0

Monday, May 18th, 2009

Due to lots of people bugging me about it, I’ve added support for editing statistic values to Steam Achievement Manager.

Now in version 5.0!

You can download the new version of Steam Achievement Manager on its page.

Also to address some concerns about people asking about Left 4 Dead achievements. They’re not “persisting” in-game when you unlock them in Steam Achievement Manager because there are statistic values tied to them, and the game verifies these when it lists its achievements. It has nothing to do with SteamCloud (that’s not its purpose!).

New games listed as of 5.0 (I added these before 5.0 but had not posted an update):

  • Killing Floor
  • Plants vs. Zombies
  • Zeno Clash

H.A.W.X. ‘Complete’ Profile

Thursday, March 19th, 2009

UPDATE: There was a bug with the campaign in the profile, redownload the ZIP for a fixed version. The readme will mention the update if you already have the updated profile.

I created a profile save that has all of the planes & missions unlocked, but leaves all other stats, etc as if the profile were just created. It also unlocks the following additional planes that are not normally accessible (since they are for VIP, DLC, which is not supported in the PC version):

  • FB-22 STRIKE RAPTOR
  • F-18 HARV
  • Mig-31 Foxhound
  • Mig-MFI
  • Rafale M
  • Saab-37 Viggen
  • F-4E Phantom II
  • MIRAGE 2000 N
  • RF-15 PeakEagle
  • Su-39 Frogfoot
  • Mig-23 Flogger
  • A-12 Avenger II
  • XA-20 Razorback
  • MIRAGE 4000
  • F-111F AARDVARK
  • SR-71 BLACKBIRD
  • Saab-35 Draken

This is for the retail game (any version, physical, Steam, etc), not the demo!
