I found something neat the other day. Basically, it's details on how to hex-edit save games to give you infinite ammunition for all your existing weaponry. This got me thinking... "Why hasn't someone made a program that lets you fiddle with save games like this? And wouldn't it be easy enough to add in other weapons into save games?"
To get to the point...I'd like to see a save game that starts you out at the beginning of each mission, but with a completely full and "glitched" load-out. And by that I mean the Automatic Pistol, Automatic Rifle, Chaingun, Sniper Rifle, the normally-inaccessable Ramjet Rifle, Flamethrower, Chem Sprayer, Rocket Launcher, Proficient Rocket Launcher(Gunner), Grenade Launcher, Repair Gun, Proficient Repair Gun(Hotwire/Technician), Campaign Repair Gun(Nod Engineers), Laser Rifle, Laser Chaingun, Personal Ion Cannon, Railgun, both Auto-Volt Rifles(GDI and Nod), Tiberium Auto-Rifle, Tiberium Flechette Gun, Timed C4, Remote C4, Proximity C4, an Ion Cannon Beacon, and a Nuclear Launch Beacon. All with 999/999 Ammunition.
Who among you is willing to try this task?

Mod the .lvl file with LE. Then place all the weapons under the spawner. To five all weapons, modify the weapons ammo and give it a value of -1.
No hex editing involved.

Have you tried Microsofts massive library of tutorials and code examples? By this I am talking about MSDN.

The point is he wants to make it so everyone can do it easily and quickly. No prior knowledge of LE involved.

Some nub uses leveledit, edits the map with adding the weapons, then uploads it to a download site, then other nub downloads it. lol

Actually, I see no reason as to why Jeep Rubi's method wouldn't work for making simple save games, with the exception of the following...
1. I said "999/999 Ammo," which means you never need to reload, and never run out of ammo.
2. There's that aforementioned "LevelEdit knowledge" thing...
But yeah! That's a damned good idea regardless if you don't mind having to wait for ammunition in later levels.(For example, there's no Laser Chaingun in any of the early levels.) I'm willing to try this. How it'd work is I'd edit the campaign levels, save them, run them in Renegade, make saved games for each individual level, then switch the levels back with the originals. Theoretically, because it's mostly the same data, it should work...

All of this could be done with a simple Objects.ddb edit, one file, no mess.
EDIT: Except the Hotwire part.
Just use the grant weapon script to give all, then make all ammunitions cost 0 bullets.
