LF2 2.0 HUGE problem (changing)

[c4ss0k4]

Jesus!
i need some help from you people.
well... i'm trying to create a mod using lf2 2.0

but...
i can't change de "code"!

with lf2 1.9 and 1.9c I could simply use Ultimate Patcher

but...

lf2 2.0 I cant

does the code have another encription?
can anyone here teach me how to change it?

First, you need to know what the Ultimate Patcher does: it goes to a certain offset in the exe, and if there's the right sequence of hexadecimal numbers, it'll replace them with something different.

Now, there is the problem: just by comparing the two file sizes of 1.9c and 2.0, you'll see that they are different. In fact, this has also impacts on hex editing. The "old" offsets aren't referring to the right place in the exe anymore, thus any patcher doesn't know what it should replace (since these are wrong addresses).

This means that every hex editing tool that was explicitly made for LF2 1.9c must be adjusted = the offsets need to be changed.

to tell you the truth
i already knew that
but, how can i change now? =[
the letters are in different places...
how can I know the offset that they are now?

try 'n' break

You know the value you're looking for, now you just need to find the address. Change it manually and maybe you'll be successful. Maybe you'll break the exe. That's the risk you have :P

[c4ss0k4]

well..
I put it to find ALL "L's" in the HEX

BUT
it found ALOOOOOOOOOOOOOOTTTT of L's =[
I think there is an easier way of doing this

[Silverthorn]

Yes, there is an easier way in this case: search for the address as if this has never been found before :P

can't anybody here help me?

2.0 was just released... Finish the rest of your mod. By the time you do that it'll be clear whats going on with the hex section and all the tools.

Ultimate patcher open only lf2 1.9 and 1.9c exe...

first finish your mod...the code is almost unimportant.

However, if you want to change it, try this:
