How am I supposed to run this buddy

Hi Atvaak,

Thanks for this software. I'm trying to print a list of completed quests. So I am using the 1.08 savefile you posted on another thread which I believe has 202 completed quests.

But when I try and analyze the data you are processing in VariableParserBase.cs (I'm printing out all the String/String/CName/CEntityTemplate values), I only see 84 strings containing the word 'complete', many of which do not seem to be just the quest name:

q402_escort_completed
lw_sk18_completed
mh104_completed
sq310_hook_completed
sq102_letho_completed
q107_complete
sq303_renovation_completed
q310_completed
mh103_completed
lw_sb3_completed
q302_post_mafia_completed
sq303_completed
q203_cataclysm_complete
q309_wh_story_completed
q208_completed
q309_keys_story_completed

Am I doing something wrong or is this just a problem in general with the data only partially decoding correctly?

First of all, thank you for this tool - reading it's source was a huge help for finding out how Witcher's save files were compressed.
I wanted to make a simple inventory editor but unfortunately encountered some difficulties. I've rewritten some parts of your application in C (https://github.com/solusipse/witcher3-inventory-editor, for now it's only capable of decompressing save files), but can't get pass this point:

private void ReadFooter(BinaryReader reader)
{
    reader.BaseStream.Seek(-6, SeekOrigin.End);
    VariableTableOffset = reader.ReadInt32();
    StringTableFooterOffset = VariableTableOffset - 10;

When I'm calculating StringTableFooterOffset for the decompressed file, it gives me random offsets.

When I try to read values from there:

    reader.BaseStream.Position = StringTableFooterOffset;
    NmSectionOffset = reader.ReadInt32();
    RbSectionOffset = reader.ReadInt32();

I usually get something that is far greater that total file length.
So, I'd like to ask if maybe something has changed with patch 1.20 and this algorithm is not compatibile with recent savegames anymore, or, maybe, I don't understand how it works and it's just my fault that I can't reproduce a working mechanism? (Btw I never wrote a single line in C#.)

Firstly, thank you for taking the time to build this, you're a boss. My experience may just be due to noobness. Tried building/running newest version in windows 8, also tried running source of 0.1.1, no dice. I can see the parser and decryption in visual studio, but actually running the build exe doesn't do anything, and I don't know enough C# to execute it in a command line. Know any good places I could teach myself just enough for this specific task?

Very nice to see someone working on this. Thanks to a friend I got a compiled version of this. After commenting out the bit that crashed the program I get a quite empty window with a couple of input fields.

This looks a bit cryptic, should it look like that? Could you give a short description of how you intended it to be used?

Thanks!

Hi,

thank you so much for this tool.
I've a question, I'm not so familiar with programming, I was looking for a tool to mark one of my quests as completed insted of failed (happend due to a bug, the quest is completed but it's marked failed)

Can your tool do that?
Would be awesome if you could help me quick.

thank you so much!
