Editing saved games?

[Maxen]

Hi, first of all i must say that SR2020 is a great geo political game! and with new patches its getting better. I congratulate all of the developers one by one...

I got a problem and i hope you can suggest me a few things or help me directly

I play with Turkey mostly, its ministers probably some from europe and some from arabians i guess if i need to talk by names and looks. Is there any way for me to set my ministers before start the game? i dont wanna make it random, which file i should edit? or can i edit my saved games to change ministers?

or at least i wanna put my minister to mine desired positions.

Thank you...

It's in the CVP file for turkey of the appropiate map. (it's located in the ''maps'' folder, look for the correctly named file)

it's #609 for globalcrisis.cvp

line's

RacePrimary 3
RaceSecondary 4

at the very end of the file for turkey

where,

0 = West European
1 = Asiatic
2 = African
3 = Eastern european (slavic)
4 = Arab
5 = South American/Native indian



those lines you need to change. And after you've done that you need to rebuild the cache, to do this, you need to delete the .sav file of the appropiate map in the cache or cachegc. Then restart the game and launch the scenario, it should take about...mmm about an half hour to an hour or so rebuilding the cache.

After you've done that you're

thanks for the help, but i got a problem;

i've changed world2020.cvp's 2 lines which we talked about, then i deleted world2020.sav from the cache, so i restarted that campaign, its freezed on the campaign menu for a 30min or so which i thought it was rebuilding new cache but then it sent me to the main menu. i restarted it and same thing happened.

I got original game not globab crisis. Did i do something wrong?

http://www.supremewiki.com/index.php/Cr ... ache_Files Read all the steps for doing the catch.

You forgot step 6 and 7.

[Maxen]

Thanks, im gonna try it again, thats what i will do;

1- Editing my .cvp file fromm /maps (world 2020.cvp)
2- Deleting .sav file from /cache (world 2020.sav)
3- Entering to game and will launch world 2020 campaing
4- Gonna wait until it returns to the Main Menu
5- Gonna take new cached .sav from /savedgames
6- Gonna modify its name to world 2020.sav and paste it to the /cache
7- I'll be happy

[Maxen]

mm no something wrong. i still have the same ministers...

[Ruges]

Hmm, well after talking with you threw PM's it appears that if what you have said you have done is correct then it should be working. The only thing I am coming up with is when you edited the .CVP you did the wrong one, or you did the wrong country for the CVP. Becouse that is the only reason you would be geting the same ministers with the changes you made.

So I sugest opening up the .CVP again and checking Turkey to make sure that it is set to:

Also I am asuming you did this with notepad right? If not make sure there is no "" around the &&

[Maxen]

i think we cant resolve this, thx anyway for ur help...

[Balthagor]

Yea I have been talking with him over PM. And he has said he has done it all. However after he does the cache and starts a new game, Ministers from tier 4 still appear.

The only thing I can come up with for the reason it is not working is he did the wrong .CVP for the .Scenario he was doing.

[Maxen]

guy i just realised that there are 2 turkeys in the .cvp, first is 609 and 2nd 699...

other nations seems only one but im not sure didnt check all of them.

so i need to change 2nd too i guess

[Ruges]

I acualy did a search for a secound one in mine just to make sure that there was not a secound one like you have found. However there was not a secound one in my .CVS. I spose that is becouse I am running GC and you are running SR2020

[Balthagor]

699 should be in both CVPs.

[Ruges]

You know what, I do have a secound listed as 699. I even did a search for a secound one this morning. Musta had blurry eyes becouse I saw the 699 and thought 609.
