Dragon Quest VIII savegame editor

[capo_2k]

For those of you who are interested, I've made a savegame editor for Dragon Quest VIII on the PS2. If you're not using PCSX2, you'll need a memory card manager to get your saves to and from the PC. If you are using the emulator, PS2SaveBuilder and MyMC can help you get the saves extracted and recompiled. It's now been tested with PAL and NTSC games, so it should work fine. (Hopefully...)

The guys over at DQShrine.com have been good enough to put it up for me.

Lemme know what you think!

it's pretty impressive dude,

I'm struggling to use all these editors though.
All I want to do is seperate my dqviii save (pal uk version)
then put in the goddes ring (the item that stops encounters)

i'll get there

Thank You!

Thanks man!
Glad to hear that I helped someone with their quest!

For those of you having trouble getting the saves to and from the PS2 or PCSX2, here's some cool tools to help:

PS2SaveBuilder download page: PS2 Save Tools - PS2, PS3, Xbox, Xbox360, Memor32, save hacking, tools, game saves and more
You can use this to extract and compile various types of save game formats. In specific, you can extract the raw data from save game archives and compile the data again into any format you want. (You'll either need no utilities, or just this one if you're using a flash card and a PS2.)

MyMC download page: http://www.csclub.uwaterloo.ca:11068/mymc/
This is a PCSX2 memory card manager. You can use it to export and import the save archives to and from the PCSX2 memory card files. (You'll need this and PS2SaveBuilder if you're using PCSX2.)

Thank you so much man,
I spent a long time messing about and finally learned all the features of the different editor programs

now I can play the game from scratch the way it should be - with less random battles
