If you're like me, you probably realized that Rogue Legacy is a game that becomes easy when you have tons of cash. Unfortunately, there's a number of reasons that programs like Game Genie will never be able to modify it for you. For one thing, Rogue Legacy's save data is constantly changing in size, meaning that values constantly move and making it impossible to narrow down a set location for a value. There's also a weird catch with Rogue Legacy's data that I'll explain in this guide.

So first off, here's what you'll need:

-Bruteforce (Any version, just make sure the database is up to date to include Rogue Legacy)
-A Hex Editing Program (I prefer to use HxD, because it's simple and easy for beginners)
-A PS3 version save for Rogue Legacy (Obviously)
-A USB Drive (Again, super obvious)



Before we go into ANY of the computer portions of this guide, you'll need to actually play Rogue Legacy. It's easiest to start a new file (but can be done with an in-progress one as well) and playthrough as far as you can with your first character. Collect AS MUCH money as you can before you die.

When you pick your next character, DO NOT BUY ANY UPGRADES. You'll want to have as much money as possible. Now keep track of the EXACT amount of money you have. Write it down, make a new notepad document, get a tattoo of it, whatever.

Now you'll want to pause and quit the game to the title screen, then quit to the PS3 XMB menu. Copy your save to the Flash Drive. Load the Flash Drive on your Computer.

Open Bruteforce (Make sure to run it as administrator or it might be a little wonky with Decryption) and decrypt your save file. Now open the "SAVEDAT0" file in your Hex Editor of choice. Again, I prefer HxD.

Now here's the tricky part: finding your money. Rogue Legacy's data has an interesting... gimmick to it. But we'll get to that in a bit. First things first, bring up that number for the money you had. For the sake of simplicity, I'll use 470 as an example. Get out your calculator and convert this to hex. So, 470 becomes 1D6. Now, in the data, money has 8 digits worth of data, so stick zeroes to the front of your current value. so 1D6 becomes 000001D6. You'll see why you do this in a moment.

Ordinarily, this is as much as you'd need to do to find a simple value in standard game data. But as I said before, Rogue Legacy is different. For reasons that are complicated and that I don't even completely understand (despite my whizkid brother's best explanations), the Hex for each value is actually in REVERSE order. But I don't mean just backwards. You have to break up your number into 4 Hex digits. So 000001D6 NOW becomes 00 00 01 D6. From THERE, you reverse the order, making your final number D6 01 00 00.

Still following? Good! From this point on it's easy. Just search (Usually Ctrl+F in Hex Editors) for that final number you got (INCLUDING the zeroes), you'll usually only find one value that matches it, but in some rare cases you might find two or three more. If you want to make sure you found the right one, look at the text strings corresponding to the value you found (usually on the right hand side of the window). Your money value will ALWAYS be near the name of the last or previous character you played as.

Now that you've found the value, change it to whatever you want. The largest the game will recognize is 2,147,836,647 or 7FFFFFFF in Hex (BUT IF YOU PUT THIS IN, MAKE SURE TO REVERSE THE ORDER LIKE I SAID, MEANING FFFFFF7F).

Make your changes and save the file. Re-encrypt the file in Bruteforce and load your save to the PS3, and start up Rogue Legacy. If you followed everything here correctly, then Presto! You have god-awfully stupid amounts of money!



Using this, it makes the game WAY easier (plus makes it easy to get the Thanatophobia trophy). From there, you can just grind for almost every trophy, except for the five trophies for beating the Remix versions of bosses (as you have to use a pre-built character that can't be exploited), the trophy you get for using the class you unlock from beating said bosses on the final boss, and the Platinum as a result.

Unfortunately, I don't have anywhere near the twitch reflexes or skill to beat those bosses, so someone else will have to step up to the plate and deliver saves for those.

try this, put this file (patch) in cheats folder (brute force) this in US version and make backup before. thanks aldo.

apply this cheats in your save

I can't do it. Call me a noob.... can't be done. I have tried everything. PS3 Save Resigner, bruteforce, everything I could. Can't decrypt the file. I give up.

Can't even find my hex value of 410 gold which is 19A. Not there.

Someone just needs to create a save file at the start with a ton of gold. Until then, this is beyond my skill level.

does this have a cross save feature?

Sure does.

if i buy the game and post my save. can someone please mod it for me? cuz, ive tried hex editing a few times. and i failed everytime.

Are you getting the US version? If so..AND I can figure out how to do mine, I'll help with yours also.

Can anyone create a save to download at the start with a living ton of gold? I haven't found one yet.

I still can't figure out how to get around my file when bruteforce says it can't decrypt it. I suck at this stuff. Thought I was ok because I modded a few things in the past ... I am clearly a white belt among masters.

I've been trying to hex my own save file EU version for hours and It don't seem to work.
