Saved Game Editor

Have a question, suggestion, or comment about Aleph One's features and functionality (Lua, MML, the engine itself, etc)? Post such topics here.

Though I have finished all the games many times without cheating at all, I do have fond memories of Marathon Cheater 5.0.2 and being able to experiment with things not normally possible. Is there a saved game editor compatible with Aleph One saved games that enables one to max out health, oxygen and ammo to 32,767 in the same way, and in the case of the first game, have powerups on for the maximum 16,383 ticks (between nine and ten minutes)? It would be wonderful if there was.

You can pretty much do that directly through the Lua console these days. You can define what key to enter the console in Preferences, but by default it's \. Once in there, enter player.life = n to set your health (150 is a full single bar), player.oxygen = n to set your oxygen, or player.items["name"] = n to give yourself n of the item named "name", which you can look up in the table here. Do that at a pattern buffer and then immediately save your game, and you've got as good as a save game editor.
