I cant seem to find what the game is storing even just the gold at. Couldnt even find what file the game is storing saved data in AppData\Roaming\Vampire_Survivors

+ on this request too please. Tried using cheat engine and cant find values =\

I didn't have any luck with cheatengine, but since this is an electron game, I can tell you that it does store some values in leveldb that can be modified.

On Windows, if you look in %AppData%\Roaming\Vampire_Survivors\Local Storage\leveldb, that's where a lot of persistent state is kept. I was looking for a way to modify coins, so I used python to browse around, and it was relatively easy to modify:

Code: Select all

import leveldb

db = leveldb.LevelDB('<path to leveldb folder')
db.Put(b'_file://\x00\x01CapacitorStorage.Coins', b'\x0199999')

This file also keeps tracks of unlocks, kill counts, achievements, etc. There's also an interesting key here named "CapacitorStorage.CheatCodeUsed'" with a boolean value, so there are probably cheats of some kind in the game.

There's another leveldb directory at %AppData%\Roaming\Vampire_Survivors\Session Storage, but it looks like it only tracks a version number.

I tried to edit it manually and it reset everything. How do you edit it with Python?

[GDMT]

I tried looking at that location and is there a specific file i should look at? Tried opening it with notepad and it was a mess lol. Would be nice to see a tut on this please

[jrsm]

You can't edit leveldb files in notepad or other text editors. If you're not comfortable with python, there are a couple of graphical leveldb editors out there you might have better luck with. I can't recommend any since I don't use them myself, it's much easier to just do a small amount of scripting.

Can anyone help with hacking this game?
I've tried everything that I can
Search for unknown value (changed/unchanged) and still cant found any correct adresses for hp or exp...
The game is cool, but I want to play with the immortality

Thanks!
I failed to install leveldb with python.
Is it possible to share your save? I want to skip some grind

If you look at the processes there would be multiple processes of the game active. Try all of them out once at a time and one will work.(The values are in doubles)

This leveldb editor works fine: [Link]

[GDMT]

I tried using that leveldb editor posted by LeFiXER then tried editing the coins i have. Not when i try opening leveldb, its showing blank. Game shows 0 coins as well lol. Not sure what i did wrong but help please lol

edit: i practically lost all my progress just from editing my coins from 277 to 1888 lol. Back to start xD

So for those who is trying to modify save file with python on Windows, you can try following steps:
0.Install python3.8+, if you don't have one, download it here:

[Link]

1.Instead of "leveldb", you are supposed to use "plyvel" on Windows, press Win + R and enter cmd.exe, press enter, then enter the command:

Code: Select all

pip install plyvel-win32

2.Find your save path: C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\Vampire_Survivors\Local Storage\leveldb, copy the full path
3.Run the following script(in python window not in cmd) ,replace "YOUR_SAVE_PATH" with your save path

Code: Select all

import plyvel

db = plyvel.DB(r'YOUR_SAVE_PATH', create_if_missing=False)
db.put(b'_file://\x00\x01CapacitorStorage.Coins', b'\x0199999')

If no error raised, open you game and you can find 99999 gold that you have

Thanks! your guide is so kind
I pasted 'pip install plyvel-win32' in IDLE (Python 3.10 64-bit), then it saied ' SyntaxError: invalid syntax'

Well, you have to run it from cmd, press Win + R and enter cmd.exe, press enter, then enter the command 'pip install plyvel-win32'

Worked like a charm! Now all i have to do is play it again lol. Also, note that on step 3 you should execute this command in python window not in cmd. What i did was copy pasting the entire code and changing the 'YOUR_SAVE_PATH' to the path of the leveldb folder including the ' '.

Thanks again!
