i have a sc5 save.dat file from my ps3. would someone here like to have a look? I opened it up on notepad and it all looked like chinese to me lol
 
When the binary data of your .DAT file is read into a TEXT editor, it will not align with normal ASCII letters, uni-code, or whatever character set encoding your viewer (such as Notepad, which defaults to ANSI, I think) will understand. Therefore, you get a bunch of symbols outside the alphabet - tho by chance, you might get some actual letters, and if you peek deep enough, and if bytes align correctly, you might find some legitmate data stored as strings.

I still need to help on this project. Has anyone taken off with it, yet? I don't want to re-do work, or pick thru 20 pages of posts :P

Is the save file on PS3 this time around importable? I remember I couldnt import save data for SCIV.
 
i dont think it's importable, but i could probably still copy my file back to the ps3 and just delete what was there originally. crossing my fingers i dont screw something up ;)

switching movesets is easy ... but how would you swap in the sc4 movesets? ... since those motion files are in a different format?

They are in the same format, the only exception being that the SC4 files on 360 are encrypted with an xbox specific compression format. Use xbdecompress.exe to get the uncompressed files. I think there's a link to that utility in the Soul Calibur 4 thread over at xentax.

Here's a character index for SC4:

With that list and the SC5 list at xentax thread, you should have the info needed to swap movesets. You might also need to swap the files in human.cpk but I'm not completely sure if that is required.

Either way, just remember that the end result is very very buggy. Intros and outros won't have proper camera positions and may sometimes crash the game. Throws deal the wrong amount of damage. Some moves may randomly crash the game. And other funky stuff may happen. Bottom line is: it's not playable.
 
I assume those who can will be able to check what's really in the March 21 patch.

I want the Bison hat back (Soldier's Cap).
 
my game crashes usually 10-15 seconds with every sc4 char I swap. I can live w/ the bugs [since I'm just messing around anyway], but the game crashing and exiting is pretty annoying.

I'm assuming this is normal though ..

Balance changes won't be possible to look into (and namco released a change log anyway), but it might be possible to get more detailed info about the CAS stuff.

It seems you need to download the Free Compability pack before using X packs of items, so...
 
^^^ i'm curious too... can anyone read anything in the patch update... similar to the disc?


like added CAS equipment?
 
They could have put at least some stuff they already showed in the video... Like one or two packs, no more. Now we have something just to say "hey hey, we added an option you won't be able to use for two weeks!" ... Yeah, very clever.
 
I figured out how to extract all of the story mode stuff. If anyone wants the artwork, I can upload all of the illustrations shown during the storyboard sequences.
