I was wanting to make a app that when you load the file into it, and you hit a button it atuomatically looks and changes the Value for the EP on a prototype save. Anyone know how i can make that happen?

Mainly the reason i want to do this is because i am still learning and want to try something like this xD

Thanks for the help ppl

I'm a horrible VB programmer. But I think you have to set up a system that reads values in that type of file.

Ask DarkSlipStream, he knows a lot about programming.

Dark Slipstream is a VB god. No doubt.

Or ask me, lmfao. I did code in VB for along time.

Imports System.IO
Imports System.Text

Public Class Form1

    Public fileName

    Private Sub btnOpen_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnOpen.Click
        Dim ofd As New OpenFileDialog
        If ofd.ShowDialog() = DialogResult.OK Then
            fileName = ofd.FileName
            Dim fs As New FileStream(ofd.FileName, FileMode.Open)
            Dim br As New BinaryReader(fs)
            Dim length As Long = fs.Length

            br.BaseStream.Position = &H666 'HeX Offset
            Dim EP As Byte() = br.ReadBytes(666) 'lengh of EP allowed
            txtEP.Text = ASCIIEncoding.ASCII.GetString(EP)

        End If
    End Sub

    Private Sub btnSave_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnSave.Click
        Dim bw As New BinaryWriter(New FileStream(fileName, FileMode.Open))

        bw.BaseStream.Position = &H666 'EP Offset
        Dim EP As Byte() = ASCIIEncoding.ASCII.GetBytes(txtEP.Text)
        bw.Write(EP)
    End Sub
End Class

I made an editor for this game a while ago in C#, but that is no help. Dakote's solution is legit. +1

Rogue's works well for beginners, use his. I didn't see this topic earlier lol...

Yeah, i don't do Endian for VB, anyway for something this easy, BR/BW is good enough.

Lmfao, yungbol +reps me, some random fag -reps me. hahaha. Halodude i bet.

Funny story, when we were "friends" he would always get jealous that i could program and he couldn't, says 1 of his friends i still talk to. So that is a lol.
