@Venemon Great work man! Really cool to see you putting more of these out. I’m going to hold off posting these on the wiki for a little bit as we’re currently redoing the formatting of it a bit to allow better categorization and filtering.
For those interested, we’ll be generating the page from a json payload, much like the crash offsets page. Here’s a few samples of what’s included. I want to try and link out to the post the offset was noted in for context, as well as including a date where we can find it:
A simple byte swap:
{ "moduleName": [ "freelancer.exe" ], "original": [ "E8 04 95 FD FF" ], "replacement": [ "90 90 90 90 90" ], "offset": [ "0x18B147" ], "author": "BC46", "description": "Disables the UI character typing text sounds completely.", "dateAdded": 0, "categories": [ "audio" ] },
A multipart offset:
{ "moduleName": [ "common.dll", "common.dll" ], "original": [ "DD 05 D0 E2 39 06 D9 FF", "C7 44 24 24 00 00 00 00 C7 44 24 2C 00 00 00 00 C7 44 24 30 00 00 80 3F C7 44 24 34 00 00 00 00 C7 44 24 3C 00 00 00 00 DD 05 D0 E2 39 06 D9 FE D9 C1 D9 5C 24 20 D9 54 24 28" ], "replacement": [ "D9 E8 D9 E0 D9 EE D9 C1", "D9 54 24 20 D9 5C 24 30 D9 54 24 24 D9 54 24 28 D9 54 24 2C D9 54 24 34 D9 54 24 3C D9 44 24 54 D9 E0 D9 5C 24 54 D9 44 24 60 D9 E0 D9 5C 24 60 D9 44 24 48 D9 E0 D9 5C 24 48" ], "offset": [ "0x06191E", "0x061941" ], "author": "Gold_Sear", "description": "Swap vertical component of trade lane travel in previous direction. This fixes issues with vertically oriented trade lanes.", "dateAdded": 1254560320, "categories": [ "tradelanes" ], "url": "https://the-starport.com/forums/topic/396/dev-s-limit-breaking-101-techniques/986?_=1706522670775" },
A value adjustment
{ "moduleName": [ "common.dll" ], "original": [ "1.2f" ], "offset": [ "0x07637F" ], "author": "Cannon", "description": "Formation catch up cruise speed multiplier. Outside of trail range common.dll 0x075B36; values above variable located at 0x1407A0 will be ignored.", "dateAdded": 0, "categories": [ "cruise" ] },
Converting these across by hand in bulk is a bit soul-destroying, so if someone wants to pitch in and take a page to convert to json, it’d be much appreciated! otherwise you can expect an update to the page structure at some point in the next few months.

@Venemon : Wow, a nice bunch of offsets you got there! While the reformatting of the list is underway, I’ll keep your offsets in my version of the list at KraftFragment. Your post #1043 actually solves #4 of my to do list! Thanks a lot for that!
From your post #1050: this offset was already found by me in 2015. Be careful to check whether your found offsets are already in the list!@IrateRedKite said in Dev's Limit Breaking 101 Techniques:
pitch in and take a page to convert to json
I could help with that, especially since I know the history of many of these offsets in the list.

That would be excellent! I’d say just pick a page or pages, and I’ll skip over them. I’m planning to put a bit of work into ‘Damage, Repair and Collision Offsets’ and ‘Docking and Jumping Offsets’ tomorrow, hopefully finishing them.
I also accidentally uploaded the partly-done json to the repository here, and will likely keep updating it, so do feel free to put a PR in with the section you pick in the commit message, and I’ll handle any merges.

Well, for starters, give me the ‘Visibility’ section. Also, “tradelane travel speed” is by Lord of Lunacy, not adoxa. Should I find more mistakes, can I take the liberty to correct them?
EDIT: @Venemon : unfortunately, your “Contact list switch before launch” doesn’t work for me; it switches between ‘important’ and nothing if I alter the ‘04’ byte from Part 1 (even after testing different values).
EDIT2: Ah, I was logged out of github, that’s why I couldn’t edit.

Please feel free to correct mistakes! A good chunk of the move over to json thus far has been done in bulk on my night shift when it’s quiet, so I’ve almost certainly missed a few things/copy-pasted the wrong field here and there

@Gold_Sear
I assume its working now? -

@Venemon Oddly, yes. I don’t know what happened before, as I double-checked. Well, all good now.
EDIT: is there a reason you include the unchanged bytes in your offsets? I omit them in KraftFragment.
-
While the list is under construction, my text-formatted version can be found at KraftFragment, which gets updated regularly. I plan to eventually turn all the offsets to adoxa’s Bwpatch’s format, but that could take a while…
@IrateRedKite: do you plan to actually make the json payload the ‘official’ version of the list and hence discard the current md-based version?

This is the the plan! It will however, generate a human-readable .mdx page on the wiki that can be filtered by field, etc once it’s all done. Crash offsets works similarly right now, just without the filters.
-
@IrateRedKite : thanks for replying this fast! I plan to work on the json payload for a few hours a week; some offsets are harder because their origin URL can be tricky to track down.

An update! I’ve done the equipment section today. Had a ton of luck using this tool to convert the markdown pages into a json object. It’s still a ton of manual work, but this takes a bit of the tedium out of it.
@Gold_Sear Thanks for the PR for the visibility section, hugely appreciate it!

I updated KraftFragment, it now contains @Venemon s latest offsets.
EDIT: did some work on the json payload.

@IrateRedKite : I will finish the Visibility section on March 6, after being busy for over two weeks. Apologies for delay.
