man, if only I could get ue4ss to work, as you can edit objects and properties in any unreal engine game using it, and maybe make a proper ce table using the dumps and offsets it provides. Would also enable cheatmanager and the console, if only the game didn't crash immediately..

they removed the recipes that allowed for stat stacking materials, so UE4ss would likely allow for you to modify those attributes and continue creating overpowered materials.
tbf this is likely possible with just memory editing and dissecting data structures but I've not had any luck with this

Dumping the game is possible with [Link] and then you can easily view the offsets via the dumpspace jsons, so try that and you could probably dissect structures without issue. I just don't have the knowhow to apply that to CE myself, that's why something like ue4ss would be cool for me, if it worked.

Prior to this patch, people could easily change stack values, but there were some exploits with feeding materials into their related crafting tables while a realm card was doubling materials generated. The result was the new material would have double the stats they would provide to gear made with them, although the material didn't list this change. I didn't take advantage of this, but if you've been to the Vault, people were one-shotting Sun Giants for speed runs.

Since the March 19th update, they've fixed the exploit, and are currently looking at ways of fixing people's overpowered weapons. You can still find people toting one-shot rifles in Vault parties, but their days may be numbered, before the devs find a way to restrict stat values on existing gear. Additionally, the tried-and-true method of using Cheat Engine to modify stack values is borked. Something is recording the original inventory value, and only sanctioned events like looting or crafting can add to your inventory.

I am a complete novice to Cheat Engine and this whole process. If the above doesn't make sense, or what I write below, that's why. I tried keeping a search going for my T3 essence stack, reducing and picking back up essence, and isolating any addresses keeping the total from when I logged into a realm. I jumped to a new realm and repeated the process. I added those addresses, and tried again with the original method to also isolate addresses holding what my current inventory values are. I tried changing all found addresses from both searches to what I wanted, jumped to a new realm, and the game crashed... I don't know how, but they are keeping another value hidden client-side, and only counting legitimate changes to these values.

They seem to want the features of a game like Valheim, where people can party up and explore together, but also a few hubs and dungeons like No Man's Sky, and they're making a lot more of an effort than the later to ensure people aren't cheating and ruining others' experiences. In NMS, you can freely change your material stacks all you want, no tamper protections whatsoever. I can understand how they don't want people blowing away bosses in one hit, but now wanting to skip running the Vault like 50 times to get all the T3 recipes is impossible too.

I have a strong suspicion, because of their response to player asking for less server dependency when playing alone (they said they had a different vision for how the game would be built and that's changed), that they wouldn't develop a solution that relies on anything server-side to preserve inventory values. Most of the negative reviews complain about how much online-dependency there is, people have lost their data between some of these updates. I doubt they want to fiddle with server/player-file relationships more than they need to.

Someone with a lot of experience with making tables is going to have to dig through how they're encrypting or disguising a backup value of our inventories. A true server-side solution would be way too sudden and costly for them to maintain, they would not want to manage packet traffic like a MMO, and certainly not when they need to focus on actually working on content updates before players completely lose interest. Whatever they did, it has to be a client-side protection.

I mean you can 1 shot all the bosses with out the stat-stacked loot, if you min max for ranged damage multipliers on armor, and use an Eclair shotgun made using mainly Einaidia

Man, had hopes there was a way around the bottleneck that is essences. It is a fun game, but the way the essence farm is dragged out is kinda killing it. Unless I am doing something very wrong. But farming some location to hit 5 things in the right order for the xth time is a bit much. Sad that I missed the opportunity to skip it when it was there.

I notice you can farm more resources off the finial kill of some animals like wisps and some bosses.

Does anyone know if this is client side where we could adjust the speed of attack to super fast to get more resources like Essences of Hope?

With the Offline update from yesterday, I would think it's possible now to find and change some of the adresses, since it seems like the sp mode is not linked to servers in any capacity. I'll take a little look just to confirm.

EDIT: So yeah, with a simple 4 bytes scan you can find AND change stuff on inv, just tested on essences.

EDIT 2: For stuff with weight, after you change the value on CE, drop or extract at least one for the value to update. THE UPDATED VALUE WILL UPDATE WEIGHT ACCORDINGLY so, y'know, don't get stranded with tonnes of sticks.
