Here's a guide a found with all credit going to the author MORDOR.The bottom of this guide describes a program called "savegame editor" but after searching for hours, I couldn't find anything relevant to Albion. I did however find a german program that will allow you to edit saved games, but it is... german. See my Albion Trainer page to get more details, otherwise use the below method to hack your own saves with a Hex Editor.
ALBION Offset List v1.00 ENGLISH (01/17/97) BY MORDOR You will need any hex editor to perform these cheats. With editor load Albion savegame file (save.*). Savegame file length changes during game. In order to find first hero record you must search for 'XLD0I' string in file. 245 bytes after the first occurance of this string you can find first hero record. As far I know each hero record is 940 bytes long, but I will not describe all data in it. For example: 1. Open 'save.001' 2. 'XLD0I' string is located at 44950 (AF96h) 3. First hero record start at 45195 (B08Bh) 4. To find next hero add 940 (46135, B437h) You can find 9 heroes in game. NAME LEVEL L.P. S.P. T.P. AGE GOLD STR INT DEX SPD STA LUCK M.R. M.T. C.
