Anti-Cheat Bypass

⚠️ The anti-cheat is built into the game engine itself. This toggle only resets cheater flags in the save file. If you select more than 2 traits while playing, the game will mark you as a cheater. To prevent this, use the standalone CheatBypass tool to modify game files before playing.
⚠️ Important: This save editor can only fix cheater flags in existing saves. To prevent the anti-cheat from triggering when playing, you must use the separate CheatBypass Tool that modifies the game's Python files. Without that, selecting more than 2 traits in-game will still mark your save as a cheater save.
💡 Tip: When you disable a trait (especially if you've progressed far in the game), all related story flags are automatically reset. This prevents issues where the game references events from a trait you no longer have. Check the console (F12) to see which flags are being reset.
👁️ Read-only view. Relationship dimensions track how each character perceives you. Use this for achievement hunting — higher values in a dimension mean stronger influence on that axis.

⚠️ Advanced Mode: These settings directly modify save file internals. Only change values if you understand what they do.
Internal Variables

Selected Traits Count

Internal counter for trait validation. Should match the number of active traits above.

How It Works

Save File Structure:

Scarlett Hollow saves are ZIP archives containing a Python pickle-serialized game state. This editor:
  • Extracts the log file containing game variables
  • Searches for specific byte patterns identifying boolean trait values
  • Modifies these bytes in place (0x88 = True, 0x89 = False)
  • Recompresses the modified data back into a valid save file

📝 Traits:

All 7 traits are always present in every save file as boolean variables. The editor shows all of them and lets you toggle any on or off.

Disabling Traits: When you disable a trait, all related game flags (like mystical_intro_gretchen) are automatically reset to prevent inconsistencies in your playthrough.

Installation

🌐 Browser Security Warning:

If you see a warning like "Unsafe attempt to load URL file:///" when opening this HTML file directly, that's normal. Modern browsers restrict certain features for files opened via `file://` protocol for security reasons. The tool will still work fine, but if you prefer to eliminate the warning, you can:
  • Run a local HTTP server: python -m http.server 8000 then open http://localhost:8000/save-editor-enhanced.html
  • Or use already hosted editor here
  • Simply ignore the warning - the editor works either way
