MegaTraveller Cheat File
By Dr. Insanity
Ok, here is a follow up to Darkstar's MegaTraveller QuikDoc. Mine
will go in depth on how to edit stats, skills, and money.
Requirements : Norton Utility or similar Hex editor
Procedure: Play MegaTraveller, and make a few test characters. Save
the characters file. Quit, and open up the file
Uchars.dat with your hex editor.
Ok, what I've done is completely mapped out the entire player hex
code. There are 256 hex characters (Ie - 00 is ONE hex character which
is also equal to a ascii '.' period.) ^^^
Every player you make starts with 00 and then 20 hex characters
left over for your player's name AND series of 00s.
Any spaces which are not used by your player's name is left as 00
('.' in ascii).
Example: 00000000 0000000 00000000 000000000 00000000 00
**------ ------- --------
** - Beginning of each new player
-- - Space for player's name
00 - Empty space between name and stats
Right after the 00s following the player's name, the stats come
in. There are 12 hex characters set up for the stats. There are 6
different stats (Str, Dex, End, Int, Edu, Soc), each one taking up 1
hex characters. Ah, but then what do you do with the remaining 6 hex
characters? Well, for some reason MegaTraveller wants to have the
stats in the uchars.dat file twice. Both are identical, so if you are
going to change your player's stats, be sure to change them both the
same in the first and second listing.
Example: 00050708 09040505 07080904 05
**xxxxxx xxxxxxyy yyyyyyyy yy
** - 00s after player name
xx - first stats
yy - identical second stats
After the stats comes some misc info on your character that I
haven't quite figured out. It includes whether your TAS certified,
your rank, and I think your age as well.
Anyhow, at the 45th hex character from the players first 00 and
name comes the skills. There are 70 different skills, using up 70 hex
characters. I dont know what the limit on each skill is, but you can
try anything from 00 to 0F I would suppose.
Here is a map of all the skills and where they are:
Starting at the 45th HEX character (ie 45Hex = #1 in chart; 46Hex = #2)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Hex # Skill Hex # Skill
1 - Aircraft 36 - Jet Aircraft
2 - Archaic Wpn 37 - Laser Wpn
3 - Asslt Rfl 38 - Leader
4 - ATV 39 - Liason
5 - Btl Dress 40 - Linguistics
6 - Brawling 41 - Mechanical
7 - Bribery 42 - Medical
8 - Carousing 43 - Navigation
9 - Cmbt Eng 44 - Neural Wpn
10 - Cmbt Rflmn 45 - Pilot
11 - Comm 46 - Prospecting
12 - Computer 47 - Recon
13 - Cudgel 48 - Recruiting
14 - Dagger 49 - Rifleman
15 - Demolitions 50 - Robot Ops
16 - Electronics 51 - Robotics
17 - Energy Wpn 52 - Science
18 - Engineering 53 - Screens
19 - Flt Tactics 54 - Sensor Ops
20 - Forgery 55 - Shp Tactics
21 - Fwd Obsrvr 56 - Ships Boat
22 - Gambling 57 - Spinal Wpn
23 - Gauss Rfl 58 - Stealth
24 - Grav Belt 59 - Steward
25 - Grav Vhcl 60 - Streetwise
26 - Gravitics 61 - Sub Machinegun
27 - Handgun 62 - Survey
28 - Heavy Wpn 63 - Survival
29 - Hi Energy Wpn 64 - Sword
30 - Hi G Environment 65 - Tactics
31 - Hunting 66 - Trader
32 - Interrogation 67 - Turret Wpn
33 - Interview 68 - Vacc Suit
34 - Intrusion 69 - Watercraft
35 - Jack of all Trades 70 - 0 G Environment
Example: 45th Hex = 02 Means you have Aircraft Skill-level 2
46th Hex = 05 Means you have Archaic Wpn Skill-level 5
ETC. . .
** NOTE - Be careful NOT to edit past HEX 70 (exception money) or
it will mess up your player.
From 71Hex to 248Hex is a bunch of 00s and other characters to
tell the game WHERE you are, what you have done so far, and what
equipment you have. This is pretty complicated, so I haven't figured it
all out yet. 71Hex and 72Hex is whether you were drafted or enlisted or
something, and 73 is your sector or something. There's no real need to
mess with this area really.
Finally you want to know how to edit your MONEY!! Yes, this can
REALLY help out in this game. In the last 4 Hex characters of your
player (or the 4 hex characters before the next player's 00 and name)
contains your money. Just change whatever is there to FF00FFF1 and
you'll have enough money to last forever!!
FINAL NOTE - I wouldn't make your character have ALL the skills
because I dont think there is enough room in the 'view character'
section to display all the skills there are. Not quite sure, but
thats what I think.
