XP Hack for Red Dead Redemption PS3

[mp3259]

BEFORE YOU FLAME:

I'm making this thread to hopefully spark some interest in an XP hack. I recently saw this post on TTG where this guy explained (VERY roughly) how to do an XP hack for RDR. I've tried to figure out what he was saying and I've done multiple trials but with no avail. I'm going to dissect what he said and break it down for you guys. I believe we are VERY close to figuring this out! THIS DOES NOT WORK AT THE MOMENT I REPEAT, THIS DOES NOT WORK AT THE MOMENT!, and thats exactly why I started this thread. I did not steal this, I'm not taking credit for what that user on TTG found, I'm simply BRINGING IT TO NGU. and creating a waaay more easy tutorial to follow. so before you get mad at me for writing this saying its incomplete, try to make sense of that other guys tutorial on TTG and then tell me which tut makes more sense!

O.K. Let's Begin.

Let's start. First get on your PS3 and copy your Red Dead Redemption 'Multiplayer' file to your USB.

Plug it into the computer, and find this folder:


Then open up your RAGE.SAV file up with your hex editor:



You should then see the SAV file opened and all of the characters:



Next, we need the Float to Hex Converter, link below:

Now here is one part of his post that I'm a little confused on:

Just type in how much EXP you have into the box that says "CLEAR" at the end.

I'm not sure if he means how much XP in total you have, or how much XP you need to level up to the next level.

But either way this is what you would do.

Enter "how much EXP you have" into this box:


After you've entered the XP amount, then click the 'Not Rounded' Button to the right:


Then you will see a bunch of numbers fill all of the empty boxes.


What this has done was changed the numerical XP amount that you have over to HEX code. So under the 'Single precision' Category you take the HEX for the XP:



Then you Copy the FIRST 4 digits of that number.


Open your RAGE.SAV file back up in the Hex Editor, then hit CTRL+F to find, then change the search mode from text string, to hex values (this means it will search the entire file for that XP Hex code)



after changing it, paste the hexadecimal code into the search bar.:



Then it will automatically find that four digit code for your XP:



Now this is the part he didn't explain well.

Then you'll change those 4 to "497424". Which means you'll start 1 byte before your current EXP.

The first time I tried this I once it was highlighted I copied his number 497424 and pasted it over the old XP Hex that was there.
Then I got this message:



I Hit OK and it changed the number but made the file larger when I saved it.


But basically all you would do after this step, is save the file and then safely remove your USB then plug it into your PS3 then over-write the old 'Multiplayer' save with the edited one.

Here is where we need to figure this out as a community.



First of all, we need to figure out if he means how much XP in total you have, or how much XP you need to level up to the next level.

Secondly, we need to figure out if the six digit code he provided us is even the right code. I don't know how he came up with that number. one possible thing is that we should figure out how much XP it takes to get to level 50 and put that number instead of the random 497424.

-EDIT-

Here is the exact amount of XP to reach level 50! 337110 then once it is converted to hexidecimal the HEX code is: 48A49AC0. I don't know if we should try using the whole code, or just the first four. but that's the exact amount for level 50.

TEST THOSE XP NUMBERS!

I've seen all of the threads asking for this hack for PS3, well this is our chance. let's all come together, post what we find. I do believe this method is the correct way, because the RDR Multiplayer Rank is saved in that SAV file. they don't save your rank online like Call of Duty does. So in the end we need somebody who understands a lot about HEX editing. Let's try to really work on this, somebody will find out how to do it we are so close. If you think I interpreted something wrong in his tutorial, take a look at his and tell me what you think.

Nice TuT similar to borderlands

Very good man, If I would have gotten this game I might have figured this out day 1 since I used the same method to hack borderlands.

Finally, thank you! Ill have to try this out.

Sorry, you got me there, Maybe we convert that number he told us to replace the first 4 digits with into hex and take THOSE first 4 digits?
i tried copying the whole number and it corrupted for me too -_-

Replacing that number with what the guy on TTG provided us with will NOT work. I posted this as a clear way to hack the rank, we just need to figure out the correct number for the XP! then we'll have it!
