Alright thanks a lot. Yeah 255 saves should be more than enough, but I just use the trainer in case I absolutely want unlimited.

I might lower the amount to like 250 or something with my own Hex Editor if I can find the value you told me about, because most missions just give one or two bonus saves in Hitman 2, which I beat.

A buffer of 5 saves could work,

Either way, thanks a lot for this.

EDIT: I'm using HxD and I can't seem to find either FF10FF26 (which I assume is your changed one) or 0010FF26 that you originally had.

Ah, I was trying to use Find.

Luckily, 255 does reset between levels, so I'd have to really suck ass to blow through the entire 255 saves on one level.

I'll still probably try and lower it to 250 or 245 or something. It's a ridiculously huge amount of saves regardless.

EDIT: Hmm, still can't seem to find it, although I can't tell if it's because something's messing up or if I'm just so inexperienced with Hex Editing that I can't find it.

Maybe it's because I'm trying to Hex Edit the patched exe. Lemme try it on the original.

EDIT 2: Argh, still can't seem to find it. I'm an idiot at this stuff.

If it's not too big a hassle, can you make another patch that just reduces the saves to 245 or something? Just in case? I just don't want any bonus saves to cause potential overflow errors.

EDIT 3: Also, I know I've asked a lot from you already and I'm probably becoming an annoyance, but could you theoretically do the same thing you did for Contracts with the retail version of Blood Money? The version I bought was DRM free but all the programs I've seen so far that allow for Saves on Professional for Blood Money are only compatible with the Steam version.

If it's too much of a hassle, don't bother. I just hope to be able to play the DRM free retail version instead of the Steam version with the ability to save on Professional.

Thanks a lot, man. I know I said it a lot, but you've been a massive help.

OK still not sure why its not working for you but i made you another patch like you requested, it *should* work on the already patched EXE or it should work on the Original EXE but i recommend using the original EXE anyway to save on problems.

that should give you about 79 saves i think, So still a lot more then you should ever need but no where close to a overflow.




EDIT:- i will look into Blood Money, i have it on Steam so as long as your EXE runs with my Steam Game files it should be easier but Blood Money was a bit newer so it might be harder to do it but i can try.

Alright, that worked. 79 saves should definitely be more than enough, and if I somehow find myself needing more, I always have the trainer.

Thanks for looking into Blood Money. The thing is the Steam version and the retail version seem different enough that stuff like Statman, which I use for the Steam version, do not work on the retail version. The creator of that program said he'd look into implementing Retail compatibility, but he doesn't seem to update that program all that often, so he still hasn't done it yet.

Yeah the files must be different as well because your EXE is just crashing, i thought that the game files might be the same even if the EXE is different but i guess not, well what i can try doing it doing it on the steam version then looking for the differences and seeing if i can find the same offsets in your EXE so not all hope is lost yet.

Alright thanks a lot man.

You know about Hex Editing a lot more than I do.

EDIT: Also, I just finally managed to figure out what you meant. I thought the GoTo meant I'd actually see a string consisting of 0010FF26 and when I didn't see it, I didn't know what to do. Now I realize that it actually took me to a specific block that I could modify, so I retweaked the number to EF, which gave me about 239 saves, more than enough to finish a level without worrying about overflow.

I was just being an idiot. Thanks for showing me how to do it.

Been trying for the last 2 hours and getting nowhere with Blood Money, I will try again tomorrow but this game looks a lot more complicated so I'm not very hopeful :(,
Also nice to see you figured out hex editing :) now you can change the amount of saves you want to be whatever you want them to be.

Yeah it's really nice.

And Blood Money is on a brand new engine, so I can imagine it's far more difficult. Unfortunately, unless you decide to buy the Hitman Collection off Amazon or something, you won't have the full game to test.

Well thanks for looking anyways. It's less of an issue as I can play the Steam version, I just prefer not to because I don't like DRM. It's why I'm on GOG after all. heh

Been looking at Blood Money most of the morning and getting nowhere fast, i think i will have to give up on it, sorry :(, i even tried looking at the source code of the other people who made save hacks for blood money but it looks a lot more complicated then the older games.

Aw. Well thanks anyways for taking a look at it. You already did a lot with making Contracts saveable so I guess I'll just have to stick to the Steam version until Statman updates.

Thanks a lot.

EDIT: I wonder if it'll be easier to Hex Edit if you had the full game. Not gonna give it to you as that'd be straight up piracy, but I wonder if I could potentially figure it out. Though given my lack of knowledge of Hex Editing, that's probably a long shot.
