Horizon Forbidden West Save Wizard Tutorial
🎮 Introduction
Welcome back to XDG, your go-to channel for all things gaming! In today's video, we have an exciting tutorial on using the Save Wizard for Horizon Forbidden West. If you're looking to save time and enhance your gaming experience, you're in the right place. Let's dive in!
🔧 Maximizing Resources: Metal Scrap, XP, and Skill Points
To kick things off, let's explore the options available with the Save Wizard. The first three options are Max Metal Scrap, Max XP, and Max Skill Points. While it may be tempting to use them right away, we recommend holding off until you reach Chain Scrape or later. This is because scrap is not useful until you unlock the merchants during the "To the Brink" mission after speaking to Ubunt.
💼 Resource Cheats: Inventory Mod and Stash Mod
Next up are the resource cheats. You have two options: Inventory Mod and Stash Mod. Both of these options provide the same items, with the only difference being that the Inventory Mod modifies items in your inventory, while the Stash Mod modifies everything in the stash. A word of caution: some players have reported encountering black screens at the workbench, which could be caused by excessive modded inventory items. To avoid this issue, we recommend only modding manual saves and using the stash option when making resource modifications.
⚙️ Avoiding Black Screens at the Workbench
If you encounter black screens when accessing the workbench, it could be due to incompatible modded inventory items. To circumvent this issue, follow these steps: 1) Only mod your manual saves, 2) Put everything in the stash before making the save, and 3) Use the stash option in Save Wizard. By following these precautions, you can prevent any disruptions in your gameplay and ensure a smooth experience.
🔍 Limited Available Resources for Late Game Gear and Upgrades
It's important to note that the available resources, as of the recording of this video, are somewhat limited when it comes to late game gear and upgrades. Several crucial pieces are missing, so you may need to put in some extra effort to obtain those legendary pieces and their upgrades. However, it's possible that Save Wizard may add these missing pieces in future updates. We'll keep you updated on any developments in this regard.
💾 Save Structure and Types: Auto Saves and Manual Saves
Understanding the save structure is essential for successful modding. The game generates regular auto saves during gameplay, but you can also create quick and manual saves at campfires or rest spots. Manual saves usually work best for modding purposes. Though the save files may seem confusing, you can easily identify the save type by pressing the "Options" button on each save. This distinction will help us choose the appropriate save to transfer and mod on the PC.
📥 Modding Process: Transferring Saves and Selecting Mods
Before we dive into the modding process, let's take a quick look at our inventory in the game. The ideal save spot for modding is Chain Scrape, after opening all the merchants. By this point, you should have accumulated a decent number of skill points, metal scrap, and XP. Now, let's switch over to Save Wizard. Select the desired mods from the available options. If there are any additional items you want to mod that are not listed, ensure you have at least one of those items in your inventory or stash for the mod to work. Once you've made your selections, hit "Apply" and confirm by selecting "Yes."
Now it's time to replace the console save with the newly modded save. On the title screen, choose "Load Game." Upon hitting the touchpad, you will notice that everything has been successfully modded. You'll have all the skills right from the beginning, reach max level, and have unlimited scrap. Congratulations, you're all set to enjoy a greatly enhanced gaming experience! Remember to transfer the necessary items from the stash to your inventory before jumping back into the game if you followed our earlier advice.
🔄 Importing Modded PS4 Data to PS5 Version
For those interested in importing modded PS4 data to the PS5 version of Horizon Forbidden West, the process is straightforward. Simply create the mod on the PS4 version using Save Wizard. Then, on the title screen of the PS5 version, select "Import Game" from PlayStation 4. Locate the modded save you created, and voila! Everything will be seamlessly transferred, allowing you to continue your modded adventures on the PS5.
✅ Conclusion
In conclusion, the Save Wizard for Horizon Forbidden West is an incredible time-saver for gamers. You no longer have to spend countless hours grinding for resources. With a few simple steps, you can maximize your metal scrap, XP, and skill points, and enjoy an enhanced gaming experience.
