Summoner/Cheats

The Summoner savegame file is a whopping 265KB (270,755 bytes). With such a small size it is terribly easy to pinpoint several key locations to cheat by editing.

As Summoner is such a crappy game, I really doubt that anyone will have the drive to write an editor. Now you might say that I had the drive to write this FAQ, but FAQs are writing and writing is a great way of venting frustration, especially since you can be very articulate about it. Editors tend not to be so politically-inclined, unless the crazy programmer makes a ton of pop-up windows screaming how much he hates the game whenever you press the "Max Gold" button.

Now, get your standard Hex editor and get to work. Here are the addresses and what they do.

My apologies, I didn't feel like looking for Jekhar's offsets because he's so boring. However, by doing some subtraction and addition you should be able to come up with them. Simply subtract the value of Joseph's offsets from Flece's offsets, and add the result to Rosalind's. That should give you Jekhar's offsets.

This should get you up and going make you as rich as you need to be. Very useful for buying the Dreadblade from the merchant in the hills in Medeva!

By editing the skill points attribute, you can give yourself as many free skill points as you need.

By changing the XP, you can go to any level you want.

By changing your level back to 1, but keeping your current XP level, you will level up to your previous level instantly, gaining that much HP, AP, and Skill Points. Great trick! Only drawback is that you lose all skills you're not supposed to have at that level. The main use of this option really is to pump up your HP and AP. I was too lazy to look for HP and AP, so I just did it this way for simplicity's sake.
