Savegame (.sc4) files are DBPF files, containing a number of files specific to the city. They can be opened with Reader and the SC4 Savegame Explorer.
It was long thought that it was impossible to modify savegames because the files within it are protected with a CRC checksum. The game refuses to load certain files if it detects the checksum of the file is invalid. This means that every modification to a file in the Savegame requires the checksum to be recalculated as well.
The algorithm used for the checksum was discovered by Simmaster07 during his work on the Prop Pox Fix and was picked up by smf_16 to build a proof of concept that Savegames could in fact be edited which led to an experimental fix for ploppable residentials.
Files Within Savegames
A file within a Savegame may consist of multiple records. Almost every record in the Savegame files has the following structure:
DWORD Size DWORD CRC DWORD Memory BYTES All the rest
where
- Size is the length of the record in bytes
- CRC is the CRC Checksum of the record. This is calculated by running the entire record through the Checksum algorithm, except' for the first 8 bytes (which is the Size and the CRC itself).
- Memory is a unique identifier of the record. The game probably simply uses the numerical value of the pointer to the record for this. Never set this to 0x00000000 or you'll crash the game.
Below follows a list of all files that can appear within a Savegame. Note that most can be identified by Type Id alone. Not every file has been fully decoded yet, although the most important ones such as the Lot Subfile and the Building Subfile have been more or less fully decoded.
