Mass Effect 3 Save Editor
Wednesday, April 18th, 2012Mass Effect 3 Coalesced.bin tool
Thursday, February 16th, 2012Here’s a tool for to convert coalesced.bin into an editable (JSON) format (coalesce-*.zip).
It’s a command-line tool but you can drag&drop Coalesced.bin onto Gibbed.MassEffect3.Coalesce.exe to export to JSON (it’ll create a directory called Coalesced). Once you want to repack, simply drag the Coalesced directory onto Gibbed.MassEffect3.Coalesce.exe and it will create Coalesced.bin (overwriting the original if present, back it up!).
Reply if you have any questions, problems, comments, etc.
If you’re less technically inclined, Monochrome Wench has a tool for visually editing data in Coalesced.bin

There has not and will not ever be a virus or trojan in SAM downloads provided through my site, if some random obscure virus scanner picks something up, it’s a false positive.

From Dust startup hook
Thursday, August 18th, 2011Use this at your own risk, I don’t know how UPlay treats code hacks in the long run.
How to use:
- Download startuphook-v1.zip
- Extract both files (the DLL and startup.txt) to game directory, such as: X:\Path\To\Steam\steamapps\common\from dust.
- Edit startup.txt if you want.
- Play game.
startuphook-v1 was made for the latest version of From_Dust.exe (as of this posting) which has an md5sum of b9c5470f75d047f18fbcd1ed21534bdc.
What this DLL does:
- Patches the FPS limiter to 120 (instead of 30).
- Hooks engine initialization so you can change a static set of startup arguments to whatever you want using startup.txt.
If you have any issues please comment this post, new patches will break this hook (but the hook will safely warn you).
Important: don’t remove the existing text in startup.txt (/lynfs "/BinPC" /projectid:DUST), only add to it!
The default contents of startup.txt: /lynfs "/BinPC" /projectid:DUST
Example: /lynfs "/BinPC" /projectid:DUST /vsync:2

HOARD data decrypter
Wednesday, July 6th, 2011At someone’s request, I created a tool that will decrypt all data in HOARD’s encrypteddata directory.
Running DecryptData.exe will automatically detect the game path and decrypt all files in encrypteddata and write them to their paths under data. I’m not sure if the game will prefer files in the data directory over encrypteddata, but if you rename or delete the encrypteddata directory it will force the game to load everything from data.
