EditSF 1.1 / 1.2 and Warhammer

**RoninX2807** · May 25, 2016, 05:11 AM

TW Warhammer introduced two new EsfTypes, so the EditSF could not load, parse and edit Warhammer savegames.
To be able to use it again, replace the EsfLibary.dll in your EditSF folder with this new EsfLibary.zip

Be sure, that if you unzip the downloaded EsfLibary.zip, not to create a new subfolder named "EsfLibary", but to overwrite the existing EsfLibary.dll in its folder directly.
The EsfLibary.dll must have version 1.2.0.1!

It can happen that there are more new types, which I haven't found yet.
Report here if an error pops up.

Another new type was found.

Why editing starpos file doesnt make any difference to the actual campaign? I've tried to make it 40 unit per stack but it only works if I edit a save file, not starpos

Sorry I am not the creater of EditSF thats Daniu, I just fixed the EsfLibary.dll, the main program is his courtesy.

By the way, do you know what the 2nd value (blue box) means?
Red one is max units (maybe player only?) and the blue AI?

**apw2** · May 26, 2016, 09:48 AM

Blue one isn't for AI. If you change the red one it will also apply to the AI as well as yourself (tried it).

Usually the second line is for Navy size (at least it has been since Empire TW)
both lines apply for both Human and AI

Can someone please send me the link to Danius new Editsf,

I cant find it anywhere !

**RoninX2807** · May 27, 2016, 06:57 AM

if you use SaveParser there is a EditSf embedded.
e.g. Open a savegame parse table faction right-click a faction row.... works for all tables.

There is no new EditSF.

Ronin, you and Daniu are awesome. I created this account just to say thank you to you both. I use this program a lot and it saves me time (I still play the game to its full enjoyment, as well as maintaining a challenge, but this program just adds so much to the game).

Again, thank you.

Welcome!
a) for what do you use EditSF?
b) do you use the SaveParser as well?

For Rome 2 & Attila, I did the following:
Edited the Age of my generals so they wouldn't die off so fast
Treasury mods across the factions
Calendar/Turn Modification to break free from a multiplayer desync (this one took some trial and error, but I was able to "repair" a turn 100+ game that I was playing with a friend online with, but I was able to pull it away from a nasty game-breaking desync, the one where it doesn't give you the option to resync!).

I tried using SaveParser, but I was in "get it done" mode, so I didn't bother too much with the settings of routing the program to my game files. I somewhat routed Warhammer to the gamefile, but it came up with the "game is running" error, even after a computer restart.

I assume SaveParser is a focus for you all? Although it seems user-friendly, I was able to navigate ESF Editor fairly well. In summary:

ESF Editor = easy to find file to edit, but to most people more difficult to apply edits (not my case for the things I do!)
SaveParser = harder to "ground" the program to find files, but easy to apply edits

I chose ESF Editor for those reasons.
