I probably will never have time to make a new version out of this due to my carrer/life choice
So I'll give instruction in case anyone want to improve on this workRelevant expertise is to know how to use cheat tool like ArtMoney or Cheat Engine on a PS1 emulator on PC
Anyways if you don't have the exp, the process to search for an address is:
1. Scan for a value
2. Change the value in game
3. Filter for the changed value
4. Repeat until you have the address you wantKnowing C is a plus, but if you don't know C programming language you can do trial and errors.
It will be a time-consuming process.Step 1: When you load the versus save, go to the place to manage party.
Step 2: To hack a character open the stat window of the character
you want to hack and search for '4 bytes Integer' value, using this formula to find the address:
- (First Slot Weapon ID) + (First Slot Weapon Durability * 256)
for example if the character's inventory is:
- Weapon
1. Luna | 30
2. Iron Sword | 50
3. <empty>
4. <empty>
- Item
1. Fruit | 3
2. <empty>
3. <empty>
4. <empty>The first weapon slot is Luna with a durability of 30, and Lunar weapon ID is 25
So you should scan for:
25 + (30 * 256) => 7705 (4 bytes Integer Values)Step 3: Make a save state
Step 4: You probably will get multiple results, for each of the value try replacing with '7681',
2 case will happen:
- Case 4.1: if your character first weapon changed into an 'Slim Sword' with durability '30'. This is the correct address. Proceed to step 5
- Case 4.2: if your character first weapon didn't change, restore it back to the original value because you changed the weapon for other characters, when in doubt reload the save state from Step 3 and try againStep 5: When you get the chracters' base address in RAM, you need a Calculator with Programmers mode, to do the math in HEX mode (base 16), so let's suppose the character base address is 0098AA8, if you add 4 it will make 009BAAC, because human counts from 0 to 9 in base10, but in base16, we count from 0 to 16, with 10=A, 11=B, 12=C, 13=D, 14=E, 15=F
Let's call the base address BASEADDR
[Character structure]
- Character avatar: BASEADDR - 3 (3 byte int)
=> see character.txt for existing character avatar
=> value from 0-16777216, but not all is used, trial and errors is needed to get correct avatar
=> a value of 0 means no avatar, it means that the character's portrait will be generic solder based on their existing class
=> however you cannot make a non-portrait characters a leader because you will get a Broken Save on saving- Character gender: BASEADDR - 8 (1 byte int)
there are only 2 values, 1 for male and 1 for female, you can extract it from the available characters
- Character name: BASEADDR - 4 (1 byte int)
=> value from 0-255, see character.txt for existing character name ID- Character class: BASEADDR + 3D (1 byte int) (if not working try subtract 3D)
=> value from 0-255, see character.txt for existing character name ID
=> please note that the class affects the stat- Character stat: BASEADDR - 18 (8 bytes value)
=> all of character stats like attack, def, magic, however they are not stored in 0-256 range format, they use something like C bitfields to store all of the stat in 8 bytes range, so 1 byte might contain data for multiple stat fieldsThis is the most tricky part of the hack, what I'll do is to apply Step 2 but when the character is in Battle/Gameplay Mode, get the character base address, hacking the items to be the Stat Boost potion, making them all 99, then boost the stat up to the desired value using the in game Potion, then copy the value of that character stat as reference (also making sure the current HP matches the max HP).
- Character skill: BASEADDR - 10 (8 bytes value)
Hacking the skill is not as hard as you might expect, there are 8 bytes, which means there are 64 bits, and each bits contains 1 skill, so example:
- Skill ID 1: 1
- Skill ID 2: 2
- Skill ID 3: 4
- Skill ID 4: 8
- Skill ID 5: 16
- Skill ID 6: 32
- Skill ID 7: 64
- Skill ID 8: 128
- Skill ID 9: 256=> Skill ID N: 2^N
...So if I want my character to have Skill 1 and Skill 2, I will simply add them up:
1 + 2 = 3
It's been a long time and I forgot the skill ID, Skill 1 and Skill 2 refers to the HP Stealing and the 5 Attacks Skill, they are always the same so it would be nice if someone could document them- First weapon: BASEADDR (4 byte int) => formula is Weapon ID + (Durability * 256)
- Second weapon: BASEADDR + 4 (4 byte int) => formula is Weapon ID + (Durability * 256)
- Third weapon: BASEADDR + 8 (4 byte int) => formula is Weapon ID + (Durability * 256)
- Fourth weapon: BASEADDR + C (4 byte int) => formula is Weapon ID + (Durability * 256)- First Item: BASEADDR + 10 (4 byte int) => (don't know if this is correct, but should be nearby the weapon address), same formula as Weapon
- Second Item: BASEADDR + 14 (4 byte int) => (should be first item + 4)
- Third Item: BASEADDR + 18 (4 byte int) => (should be first item + 8 )
- Fourth Item: BASEADDR + 1C (4 byte int) => (should be first item + C)Step 6: Once you are satisfied with your edit, make a save
Step 7: Go to party placement menu and scan from top to bottom, make sure when you pass through (ex: hack coverage) all the characters, the game won't crash. if the game crash then start from previous save
Always make backup of the saves before to prevent this issueStep 8: Then repeat with the next character.
The old save is still available for download. Here are some ideas:
- There is no bow user in this save, unless you mount Barca
- There are a lot of soldier class unused
- Making each country has its own commander and soldier class
- 5/6 NPCs are not in there
...
Good luck -
This is a xdelta patch for Tearing Saga which you can use to change the skill formula for some skill in Tearing Saga:
For example: Sol, Luna, Terra, Draco, Tiamat,...
or any skill which has the formula:
* Chance% = (User Skill - Enemy Skill)%
to
* Chance% = User Skill %
Reason for disabling it:
1.This mean you will have a character with high skill and your opponent must be of lower skill than you. Usually most of the time you can just finish him without any skill
2. This mean you can't make a cool VS Battle with characters already have Max Skill 25 with each other.
Since ( 25 - 25 )% = 0% don't expect to have any exciting battle when 2 Skill Masters are fighting each other
3. Users' skill should be dependent on himself only like other FE games.
4. Those skills are used to showcase a character's fighting style. It is useless if they can't use it against an enemy that is the same level as them
- Xdelta patch link: (apply to Tearing Saga BIN file, see Aethin's patch topic on how to apply xdelta file to image)
http://www.mediafire.com/file/9h4p4smomhh3irz/TRS-skill-formula-patch.xdelta/file
* I tested them in game. It doesn't mean the characters will execute skill all the time. The game is still enjoyable with the new formula.

This is the tricks that I have found while playing Tearing Saga. You can perform it at anytime but you'll probably fail unless you do it after clearing map 19. You can get rare weapons, spears, axes and magic spells but you can't get rare bows. Here is how you do it: (I will try my best to minimize spoiler)
* Recommend step: You should recruit the bishop and Plum before completing Map 2 because you are given a staff that can halve damage by 50%. Or else your chance of restarting the game is very high. But it's optional.
*** Important: Don't trade Yuni to Runan's group in the first part. There is no good reason to any way, she can't fight and will be killed by the enemies easily.
*** (In your first control of Holmes) In Map 15, let Attrom visit the house near the Inn that looks like a church to recruit Lyria. You must do this before reaching the next map but before Map 16. You will be given a staff that increases STR by 10.
- Step 1: After you are taken control of Holmes' group the second time. Go to the Zombie Swamp and train Yuni (the female thief) to level 30. She has good Speed, and Luck, but her STR can't increase (It is 1 in my case). So the staff is a must for her to be able to defeat someone in combat. Here is my stat:
STR 1 - MAG 11
SKL 20 - LUCK 17
SPD 25 - WLV 12
DEF 1
* Why use Yuni? Because she has the Steal skill that can take an item or a weapon from an enemy.
* You can buy the Gladiator skill for Yuni in the same place you recruit Lyria for 8000G.
- Step 2: Go to the map when there are 4 archers and you are given an option to use your allies as shopkeepers. Put Lyria and Yuni into your team. You can put Xeno in too. Put Yuni in the arena and put Katri and Xeno near her so that she can gain the Critical Hit Support Bonus.
* It is recommeded that you put someone in the item shop. Because you can buy the Repair Hammer at a cheaper price.
- Step 3: Use the STR+10 staff on Yuni and choose the highest hitting weapon you might have currently. I chose the Scimitar then the Steel Sword. If you have the 1/2 damage halves wand, use it on her too! You can try buying her shield to boost her weak DEFs.
- Step 4: Go to the arena and fight. At first pick someone with a low class such as Sword Knight, Axe Knight, Lance Knight, Chief,... and defeats them. If you are lucky she will steal a weapon from him/her after you succeed.
( Marchen can steal all enemies' weapon upon defeat, but his growth is the worst and he isn't allowed in arena.)
Here are the following rare weapons you can still in the Arena:
+ Master/Brave Sword: 2x attack. If you stole this and Yuni's WLV is high enough (12), use this from now on as your Arena weapon
+ Master/Brave Spear: 2x attack
+ Master/Brave Axe: 2x attack
+ Wardblade: Raide MDEF by 8, has slow use. It's not useful but you are not able to get that one often
+ Silver Sword/ Spear/ Axe: This one is useful to steal but the opponent will 1 hit Yuni unless she has the 1/2 damage stat bonus.
+ Levin Sword: You can use this one and Mel's MAG+8 staff combo but you can't bring Roger to Runan's team if you do that.
+ Shield Sword: Randomly increase DEF on his
+ Shield Axes: Always increase DEF + 10 on his
+ Swordbreaker
+ Killer Axes/ Sword: +20 Critical
+ Thoron Magic
+ Hellfire
* If you are not leaving the map your stat bonus will not get reset. So it's the best way to get those rare weapon as early as chapter 20.
* Alternatively, use Repair Hammer on the weapon. If you gets at least 51 kill it will be added CRT hit to your weapon. But at CRT+49 stop, make a save. If you get a red star, restart because the character might kill himself in the attack. If you get a green start, good. With this you can farm item from the arena easier.
Good luck

Wow you guys have figured out almost everything that I want to answer.
Check the first post, I have added the new hack that can allow the capture of anyone.

how can I change the character's starting equipment?
Please help me this.
I was inactive because my family is having problem right now.
To change equipment you open the character's inventory like you did in the picture and put a breakpoint at 0x0017C590 and s2 is the inventory address.In battle it will always works.
In menus (outside battle) you have to trade your item with another character to get the right address.

Why do you make a mod for this game with the new brand story or make some more characters with new classes and new skills?
Hope to see it comes true.In that case, it is better for me to make a new game and make some bucks out of it instead of spending all times on editing a game that is copyrighted.

Cool.Berwick Saga is one of my favorite games.Thanks you for doing this.

I have hacked Volcens into the game, many thanks to @Aethin and @Emperor Hardin .I wonder if there is any way to easily hack the portrait of a person you want because I have to go through 300 values just to get Volcens' portrait
You can download my hacked save here.

I've attached a list of units, classes, items, events, and city locations. Hope it helps you with your endeavors!
Thanks you very much, I was making a list like this for items and classes.
This will make my job easier.
-
But first I will have to go through 255 values to check for the class there.It will take a while.I have made video about the class ID as I figure out the class
About the save I already made one save at Chapter 3 that has Chaos and Weiss permanently recruited into party.Once I found out about the two class you mentioned I will add them to the save for sure.
-
I have likely lost all saves of Berwick Saga, even if I still have them it is the last stage's save so it will not be useful.I have a save of chapter 3 and chapter 2
Just made a cheat code to save every turn.
Useful for cheaters who want to reload the RNG that save state can't do.
I just noticed game will delete the banned weapon like poison arrow from the player's inventory so I made a cheat code to prevent that.
-
I can do generic ,I just need the save for the sake of stat accuracy.About Richard he can have a horse if you take control of him using my Controllable Enemies code.
I have made a test to make Chaos and Weiss fight each other.
You can take a look here
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Acp-T-YRrg&feature=youtu.be
-
Sure, here you go
Yes, with my tutorial on hacking with Cheat Engine in the first post, you can make mercenaries and hacked character join permanently.
I take request but I don't have all the save for every chapters so it is better if the one who makes request can give me the save the character is in.
The hacked character seems not to gain any stat growth
-
Weiss hacked in the game as a permanent party member.I did that by replacing him with a playabe character.By adjusting Unit Type to 0x68 we can make any mercenaries member in the party permanently or the hacked character will be lost upon the next chapter
Chaos hacked in Party

Thanks Aethin.

Awesome.
Have you tested the portraits codes? Are they linked to IDs, and what of stat growths?
I have managed to change the portrait and class of a player.But I can tell you that, from experience with hacking Tearing Saga, the player's name will determine which unique weapon we can get as well as their class' unique colors.The name is a tricky address to find because it does not change, Stat changes are possible, but given the limitation of PS2 cheat device.We can only hack them using Cheat Engine.
Added another code to let the player play any sidequests
-
Room mod code released
-
I found out a way to get the inventory address of any visible enemies.I will try to edit the data around it to see if anything useful changes.
I just discovered something interesting, if you use the Controllable Enemies code and you enter a shop as an enemy their Money will be 0.It appears that the game doesn't use the player's money for the enemies but enemies has its own money.
I figured out a cheat that can allow the player buy anything in any store(with special items being free)..In the game code there are about 767 items that the game can read.If you want I will post it here
-
Cool.I think the face ids are somewhere near the weapon address.I don't find hacking characters useful in Berwick Saga since there is no VS mode where two players can battle with each other.
I have added another cheat that let the player control the enemies.
-
Yes, this allows the player to get all weapon that turns into normal weapon.
About Dark Magic I think you can obtain them and there is no replacement restriction, however as I remember the only one who is capable of learning Dark Magic (who is very weak) can only use the Drain HP Dark Magic and Dark Heal without being underleveled which totally kills the scroll's usefulness.Those Dark Magic is for Collector's Item who will give you a reward if you give it to him.
And yes about the video I would like to see it if is possible
Edited: I tested and status ailment for enemies works perfectly.I was managed to inflict the enemy with Sleep and Poison
-
Today I will show my Berwick Saga cheat which was made by myself.The format is RAW code
*** No Weapon Replacement upon taken
2016DE70 03E00008
2016DE74 0000102D* Use alongside of this code
Prevent Game from deleting banned weapon
20175110 03E00008
20175114 039E0027*** All weapons that can cause status ailments in the game are replaced by normal weapon whenever the player manage to get a hold of them.I think this gave the A.I an unfair advantage over the players.This code will prevent the weapon replacement and allows player to use those weapon if they can get it.
*** Get All Weapon upon Defeating Enemy
2016CEBC 3BE21998*** This will make all weapon by the enemies droppable when the player kill them.A fun code to try, note that I don't recommend you using this code on your first playthrough, it could make the game too easy and ruin your experience.
*** Controllable Enemies
0038EAD0 00000004

- How to hack Berwick Saga characters
* First you have to get PCSX2 dev build which you can find by Googling PCSX2 nightly build
When on game, pause by pressing Esc and click on the Debug tab/Open Debug Window
- The debugger will be open, but since the game is paused you won't see any code, resume gameplay.
Press CTRL-G while in the code window and input 0018D5A0
- After you go to the address double click it to add it to the breakpoint list
- Now in game press Triangle to view the information of the character you want to edit, PCSX2 will break(pause until you hit Run)
- Take note of the value in the s0 register, it is 0x01E1869C, We will add 0x20000000 (to get PCSX2 address) to it making it 0x21E1869C.We will only care about the 4th column from left to right.The other columns are useless even if it has values
- After you got the address you can remove the breakpoint and click Run.PCSX2 will resume normally.
- We will fire up cheat engine to change the player's info.Here is what I have found(replace s0 with the address which is 0x21E1869C in my case:
* Name (2 bytes) = s0 + 0x0A
* Class Address (1 byte)= s0 + 0xF
* Avatar Address (2 bytes)= s0 + 0xC
* Unit Type (1 byte) = s0 + 0x1C
- 0x68: Player's Unit
- 0x69: mercenaries or guests
- 0x00: nothing
- 0x10: enemies
* Skill: s0 + 0x34 to s0 + 0x40 (which means 0x34, 0x35, 0x36,...->0x40)where each address is the sum of:
Skill 1 = s0 + 0x34
- 01: Axe guard: Use axe as shield
- 02: Longbowman: +1 bow range, -15Hit
- 04: Huntsman: Ignore forest Avo when using arrows
- 08: Aim : Arrow + 33 Hit
- 10: Swimmer
- 20: Resistor: +3 Res within 5 hexes
- 40: Search: Look around for items
- 80: One-Two: Take two attack actions in one turnSkill 5 = s0 + 0x39
- 01: Deathmatch - Attack with 5 rounds of combat
- 02: Swap Horse
- 04: Throw - Range 1 attack with +10 Hit
- 08: Parry - May negate attack, but damages weapon
- 10: Prepared - Auto-switch to weapon that can counter
- 20: Robust - Cannot be injured or crippled
- 40: ??? - Not Shown
- 80: Focus Chant - Magical attack with +30Hit, +10-30% AtkSkill 6 = s0 + 0x3A
- 01: Siblings - + 100 Crit to Reese when adjacent
- 02: Horse Lover - Restore 20 HP to horse after chapter
- 04: Robbery - 1/4 chance to steal from defeated enemies
- 08: Despoil - Acquire gold off defeated enemies
- 10: Knock Away: May unequip enemy shield upon hit
- 20: Iaido - +33 Hit, +3 Crit countering with sword
- 40: Pulverize: Double power of attack at the cost of defend (Axe orBlades)
- 80: Mug II May steal an item on hit
Skill 7 = s0 + 0x3B
- 01: Miracle - May avoid a lethal blow
- 02: Armsthrift - Slow down weapon degradation
- 04: Hide - Become invisible in various terrain
- 08: Hurry - +1 Mov , but can only Wait if used
- 10: Lance - Can Equip Lance
- 20: Blade - Can Equip Blade
- 40: ??? - Not shown
- 80: ??? - Not shownfor example if you want Axe Guard and Long bow man then at offset s0 + 0x34 you should add 1 + 2 = 3, do it the same for other address
- How to capture any character
When the cursor is on any character, put the breakpoint at 0x00178554 and read the v0 register.The 4 bytes status flag is at v0 + 0x5C, if you +4 to the address and add 80 to that value that character will instantly become crippled and can be easily captured, use this method you can capture anyone instantly instead of reloading the save again and again and hope that the character is injured, and just because he is injured doesn't mean he will be crippled before he dies.
- How to hack weapon
View the character info using Triangle and put the breakpoint at 0x0017C590, after that read the s2 register it is their inventory address.

eatrawmeat391's Berwick Saga cheat
in Saga Series
Posted
Thank you for using the cheat code. During my time of making cheat codes the purpose was only to break the game for fun, since the game has more content than TRS. I didn't expect a 2 players usage. Now that is interesting. You can workaround by using a dummy playable character. He will be the last turn and he cannot move. Now you can move anyone else as you please. The turn only end if all playable characters finished their move(s)
And everyone else. Sorry for not helping the hacking activities. I was putting my full focus on my job.
Just to let you know. Due to the complex nature of the video game and modding scene I cannot go on and continue the work on this. It is a pity that I didn't get the kind of activity while I was still hacking. And thank guys
