Hex editing? I've been reading about it, and it seems very complicated, yet fun...can it be used to manipulate my stats in Quest for Glory 3?

I wish I could remember the name of the software I remember using back in the day. It rain in memory and what you'd do is press the ~ key and it open the program. You'd put in a stat (say your strength is 13) and when it changed to 14, you hit the ~ key again and put in 14 - and it'd search the HEX code to see where a 13 changed to a 14.

And with QFG it was great because you can add and subtract stats right when you build your character - so you do this with each stat (put it whatever it was), add 5 points - and hit the key - and see where it changed. And change it to like 100 and do this with each stat.

It did all the HEX editing find/search for you.

That program would be PERFECT for my stat editing experimentation! T'is a shame you can't recall the name, I'll do some research and see if I find it

You would need some older DOS program that was a TSR so you could run it in DOSBox with the game.
