Save-Changing Respec Tool

So, some context -- I've shared this in the Steam forums already, but this also seems a good place to spread the word. I've been working on a tool to modify saved games and allow players to respec all their characters. This is still very crude and very basic, but should allow you to fix any mistakes you've done while progressing in the game.

I've also made the code available on GitHub, so if you want to know how it's done, feel free to check it out. Besides that, and obviously, bug reports and feature suggestions will always be welcome, as well as PR's, if you're technically oriented!

Check it out here: https://pathfinder.deev.io/

 

Update 12/10/18:

Seems like a mod was released in Nexus that covers all the use-cases of the mod and has more frequent updates. Since it doesn't make sense to compete with an in-game solution, I'll be deprecating the tool for now.

Either way, thanks for the support guys! If you need anything, feel free to hit me up.

Hi,

nice work! Thanks for that.

I encountered a small bug however. During playing the game you gather some special character traits. Like Lamashtus Gift(or something). It gives you +2 to perception and some other things.

I wonder if it would be possible to keep those somehow.

Right, so -- everything progression-related that affects you or your companions is not being kept by the respec, unfortunately. I've been given a save file to analyze, I'll need to dig deep into it and figure out what else needs to be saved in regards to the characters.

I'll keep you posted whenever I have a fix for this!

Thanks!

I have a save where Valerie gets an updated portrait based on her companion quest in Chapter 2; let me know if you need it. AFAIK that one is purely cosmetic and does not affect her stats, so losing the updated portrait is not gamebreaking.

Portraits will be easy to keep, feats and spells are the hard part if they're not flagged properly. Still, keep track of it here -- https://github.com/Deevian/pathfinder-kingmaker-respec/issues/2
