^ it's been ages since i've looked at this. So if you want some help, post some images so I've got an idea what you are looking at. Basically: take 1-2 items, get/link_to some images so I know what to look for...
=> i assume you refer to: [ commchal("1A479ED40C000000","E23003EC07000000") ]
if i recall well, you should be able to search for them using 'array of byte' (one of them 2 points at the uniqueID of said item)
~> keep the endianess in mind though; and it is quite possible that just reversing them bytes will simply not do...
fyi: i will not dig into that script again, as i got plenty on plate already. But i might have some lists/scripts at hand that might help you out here...
Your assumption is correct. Reversing the bytes helped out and I did find 3 occurrences of he community challenge items, thank you! I don't know why I thought those values would be different for the PS3 version.
The problem I'm having right now is finding what I believe it is the address of the items list.
I'm not finding anything that matches that array of bytes (that is, it's returning nil), probably because it is a different value for the PS3 version. Also because I see @translu had a different value for the v2 version of this cheat table. Do you have any tips or scripts to find this value? I know you won't dig into that script again but I see you created one in the past to unlock the items temporarily. I don't know what hdlcommp stands for in @translu's script but I guess it's something like "hard list community challenges pointer"?
How to use this cheat table?
Install Cheat Engine
Double-click the .CT file in order to open it.
Click the PC icon in Cheat Engine in order to select the game process.
Keep the list.
Activate the trainer options by checking boxes or setting values from 0 to 1
^ hdlcommp: or something_something_component ? who knows but the man himself...
also keep in mind that these aob_signatures might be referencing data; iow 'writable' option ticked !
Thanks you for providing this!!! It helps a lot.
But I met a problem after ticking "Plans"-"Elite harpoon" My Jackdaw acquired the elite harpoon, and the treasure map with this plan (579,720) doesn't work anymore. So I can't dig out this buried chest.
Is it reversible? Do you know the way to fix it?
Looking forward to your reply. @translu @Paul44
For rewards, community challenges. No Uplay or Kenway fleet items (but see posts below !)
0) Make a backup of your save
1) In game, go in pause menu
2) Activate "Init"
3) Activate the items you want to unlock
There is one version which is confirmed to be working with the 3DM crack, the other one with the Steam Standard Edition... maybe try both if you run into problems
2019-03-04: updated both versions for better compatibility
2018-11-18: updated (v2) legal editions version to fix bugs

did you work out how to get this to work on console?

Sorry for the late reply. No, I haven't. I managed to find the locations of the bytes of the community challenge items I need to change in memory, but I haven't been able to find the location of the head of the community challenges list (hdlcommp probably stands for head of the list of community challenges pointer).

Soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
I have the same problem on PC, but I'm a dummy
Could you explain me what to do to dig up the buried chest on example of Elite Heavy Shot? Thanks

The problem I have is related to the community challenges, so I don't think it's the same problem you have, since the buried chest is not a community challenge unlockable. Anyway, I think there are 2 or 3 versions of this script, which one did you try? Maybe the other ones will work. Also, are you getting any kind of error or message?
Hello everyone.
i have been keeping an eye on this topic for years now, every once in a while checking in and hoping someone would make it so the unlocker works but without unlocking all the normal game play reward items, so just the dlc like the social events etc. But since it hasnt happened yet im going to offer a bounty to whoever can make it. The goal here is to create a PC versions of ASC black flag that has ALL the content ever made for the game. Social events, mcfarlane figure codes, gilete figure head, everything. The ultimate goal would be to have a clean instal of the game that automatically runs the cheat engine and unlocks just the DLC, or somehow makes the save remember whats unlocked. Im offering 100$ for this. Now, there is another problem the game has or will have that i am also very interested in solving, the need for an internet connection to use the fleet system. Im hoping it would somehow be possible to have that be a private server or something, and i have a bounty for that too, but im not sure its possible. But people run private MMO servers so why wouldnt this be possible? i have 0 technical know how, so i dont know.
Hi Guys, I'm trying to make a save for the Xbox 360 version that has all of the community items unlocked. I have a profile GPD that unlocks all of the additional content, including the legacy outfits and uPlay rewards. From testing it looks like the community items are stored and loaded from the savegame. Aim is to share a savegame and GPD together if I can get it done. I've been using Xenia on PC and Cheat Engine to experiment.
I'm in no way and expert with cheat engine however I have noticed that the exact code that the scripts here look for exists in the Xbox 360 version of the game but in Big Endian instead (basically bytes are reversed). I've looked at the scripts and used the PC version of the game to try and find what they do to unlock the community items however I can't seem to see any changes nearby the bytes that they target (item ID I assume).
Does anybody know exactly what the community item scripts do? If I knew then I could make the changes manually (keeping in mind the big endian part) and achieve this relatively easily. Appreciate any help with this!
My Jackdaw acquired the elite harpoon, and the treasure map with this plan (579,720) doesn't work anymore. So I can't dig out this buried chest.
