Ahh too bad. Thanks for the response though.

You can't even get an NFC UID or anything from a regular tag? That's all I need actually, I don't need more information on the chip or to write anything to it. I just need to uniquely identify tags and when they are placed on/off.

Hey, I was wondering if it was possible to use this 'Editor' to revert a Trap containing a trapped villain. My little brother evolved a villain (the Gulper) and was not pleased with the vomit green colour swap and prefers the original, blue Gulper.

I have the most recent application working, reading figures from my portal is working. Just not too sure on what to do to actually edit the figure. I'm sorry this isn't the right place to ask, but I'd really appreciate the help. Thank you :-)


EDIT: Never mind, got it to work perfectly and the Gulper is now back to his usual blue self :-D My little brother was ecstatic, thank you.

So how does one go about editing around with figure data. I have the Skylander Editor v2, is that what I need?

A little help with the example key?

any one have a dump of a figure with the UFO hat on ? Please PM ! Thanks !!

Just as a heads up, just tried series 1 terrabite, its showing up as a series 1 drobit

Yeah, there is some issue with the minis. I think there are probably other mistakes.

Quite frankly I can't be bothered to look into it. I don't have most of them so testing isn't quick.

It seems to me with the complete lack of figures anywhere to be seen in the UK that the franchise is dead here. Wave 1 stuff is showing up in bargain bins already and the later stuff is out of stock and as far as I am aware hasn't been in stock in most places ever.

Is there any way I can help? I have every figure released here in Canada so far

After my initial burst of energy on the Trap Team release I am done with the tool for now.

My next plan was to change the data to be external text files so anybody could correct them but it's a lot of work to convert the app from it's existing form with the info hard coded internally.

Don't expect any updates for a while, sorry. Suffering a bit of franchise burn-out here.

haha no worries, im sure its a lot of work. If you ever do decide to pick it up again (which im hoping you will one day) and need some help, feel free to ask

Hi,
I cant save my figure. When I click save app print Figure Save Fail. But portal is working (I have WiiU trap team one). I plug the portal to my pc (I tried USB 2.0 and 3.0) and start the app. Portal started blinking and I place my figure on it (I tried Snapshot and Glowing Shroomboom and others) but with same result. But when I place figure on portal portal color changet to green and when loading was ended then was dark. I could see stats of characters but I cant save them (I see their names in the left box but with no data).

WiiU TrapTeam portal
Win 8.1
USB 2.0 and 3.0
I have that spyro something driver too
And the latest release of this App
Need other info?

Can you help me somehow?
and yes all the characters I tried i played a lot and I just wanna test this out and I dont stop when will be working.

And sorry for my english.

You probably don't have the folder structure for creation of the database file.

Scroll through this thread for a post with either a description or a link to the zip with the "package". Just overwrite the .exe with the lastest one.

It WONT work if you just run the exe without the right folders around it.

Oh Ok. Thanks. I will try.

Edit:Yes its working! Thanks you.
And BTW Are you planing amiibo support? Or have you done some work for amiibo support?

Neither Amiibo or Infinity figures are compatible with the app, and I doubt they could be either.
Different both technically in the way the hardware works and the encryption they use.

The portal could never talk to them so would require a dedicated reader hardware that people won't want to buy. I have not yet worked on playing with a DI portal to see if I could use it in the same way I use the Skylanders one.

I am not willing to invest money in DI just to hack the portal/figures and Amiibo is very different in how it works.

I got your tool & connected my PS4 Traptanium Portal. Afterwards I selected Connect to make sure the portal is connected...

When I placed my Ultimate Kaos Trap onto the trap port & pushed "Read Figure", nothing happened!

Care to explain, Pyrofer?

Which drivers are installed in windows? I haven't tested it with every portal but mostly it just works.
It should also read immediately when you put a trap or figure on itself without needing to click anything.

Try hitting connect a couple times if you have trouble. Try rebooting the machine too.

Otherwise, I just don't know. There are too many hardware combinations out there for me to test everything

What do you mean "drivers". I'm using Windows 7 Ultimate...

There shouldn't be any issues. Reboot the pc and unplug and re-plug in portal. Start skylander tool and portal should be read immediately.

It still didn't work!

You know the old Windows addage...reboot or reload.

Just a heads-up: apparently the program can't connect to the portal if you plug it into a USB port extender. I spent a few hours today and yesterday trying to figure out why it suddenly wasn't working and, on a whim, unplugged my port extender - after that, everything connected without any issues. Not sure if that goes for all extenders or just the brand I'm using (Gear Head).

I've been trying to use this to reset my Trap data, but there doesn't seem to be any option to reset figures.

Edit: Do I need a key to reset figures? I haven't been able to figure that bit out.

Someone have the link for the current version download?

Muffin Man, I did a quick test and yes, it looks like the key is needed to reset figures. Also, you may have to try some of the older versions of the tool in order to reset traps, as Pyrofer may have removed that feature in later versions because it completely wipes variant traps with no way to recover them unless you made a backup beforehand - use it at your own risk.

Crash10, the latest version is linked to on Page 8.

Thanks for the info! Though I don't have any variant traps, so no worries there.


Is it possible someone could PM me about how to get the key?


Edit: Thanks! Got it all figured out now!

Is there a way to take regular traps, and put the variant villain on it? Ex Riot Shield Shredder so you don't have to spend lots of money on ebay?

Sorry to bring this thread back to life, but does anyone have an old version of this?

I just want to be able to delete villains from traps. Anyone able to help?

TIA

He needs to come back Imaginators is coming out

Agreed, an Imaginators version of this program would be super helpful.

Still after the old version to let me reset traps if possible

an Imaginators version that focus only on the crystals, its the most important. so we can fight the idiot decision from activision to lock the battle classes.

Can I have a link to this program?

Not allowed. Google is your friend.

[EDIT] Nevermind, just as note if you can write this "ñ" change your system language if you want this to work.

Hopefully this tool can get updated for SI

I just tried reading the creation crystal and I got this...



It'll be good if this can be updated to reset creation crystals - I really don't want to buy 10 of each element

Agreed. It's ridiculous that this project is so small despite a 6th game now being released, especially with how much needed it has now become (seriously, I hate the thought of buying a pre-owned Class-locked Creation Crystal).
How is there not at least an Editor with a simply good GUI? (Show the Figure when it reads it, displaying it's current stats and such).
EDIT: Ok, I hadn't found the latest version. I see it's a decent GUI. Sorry about that.

Simply, this needs to support all figures to allow for at the very least factory reset, to beat that Class-Lock. But seriously, just add the ability to edit Gold, Exp., Challenges, Class, specific Skills/Path, Hat, etc.; refusing to do so just feels stingy at this point. (Being a long-time Pokemon gamer and modder, I find this quite frustrating.)

EDIT: So, after finding the latest version... I can't get it to do anything. It detects my wireless Wii Portal (or claims to), but won't read or even detect anything on it, so I can't do anything in it.

If you think the author is being 'stingy' by not continuing to work on a project for free after he lost interest in it, I'd say you're *more* than welcome to pick up the slack and get to work on creating your own software.

Pyrofer worked on this for fun in his spare time. No one paid him, he received no compensation, and, in fact, received a lot of grief from members of this community for his work.

Yep. Same goes for every save editor like this. Nothing special there. As to the griefing, that's the community's bad, I'm not interested in those who oppose advancing.

Regardless, if this project were to be advanced to as neat as it can be, many would love it.

Hate me for daring to want it or for having my opinions, if you want.

It's not about 'hating' you for wanting something.

It's about finding it distasteful for someone who's been on this forum less than two months to come on and make negative, snippy comments about a great guy who gave a lot to this community and hasn't even posted in over a year or so. Even more so because he's not providing you free labor.

The original, uncompiled source code that Pyrofer based his tool off of was released for free at some point and is likely still out there. You are more than welcome to get started on a full-featured GUI Editor that supports everything through Sky6. I'd be thrilled and so would many others. But I'm not going to support negative comments about the guy who provided a functional tool for free just because it's no longer supported or further developed.

SHOUT outz !! to my homie, "pryofer".. Missin ya !

@"UncleBob", he would appreciate your comments !

It's a bit uncalled for mate... So you find it frustrating that there's no way to cheat the game or the game manufacturer decided to lock down the battleclass per crystal? Activision have done this on purpose because they want you to buy more crystals, it's a business after all, they're here to make money, not care about peoples feelings.

The OP has done a great job on this tool and whilst I would love there to be an update or an Imaginators equivalent, I'm not holding my breath. I will just do things the old fashioned way and grind it out

Don't forget that the 3DS Version of Skylanders Spyro's Adventure can reset the CCs! I know that not everyone owns a 3DS, but there is indeed a way to reset them.

it WORKS !

Quote: crstofer

it WORKS !

I didn't want to disclose anything since I didny want get in trouble

But yes, this tool can reset crystals

Also, there's no tool out there that can do the upgrades on any Imaginators Senseis... You can try but you will brick your sensei

Upgrade-ability

Well, for people without a 3DS, it's an option. Good for people quickly trying to do gameplay research on element and class combinations,too.

It's good to see the community still active for this game, we will get there in the end.
Patience is a virtue, all is well that ends well.

looks like activision has with surgical precision removed all the info about skylanders hacking from the nets. google wont even find anything. i lost all my personal skylander dumps and software, even the stuff that Pyrofer made, in a hard drive crash. i got a max lander over a year ago as a gift.. but im pretty sure the maxlander is disbanded/discontinued. i mainly just want to backup/restore creation crystals.

btw, Pyrofer your work was genius. you are missed.

Don't think there's a way to backup/restore Crystals (or any Imaginator at present), the old way of doing things I don't believe work.

Crystals can only be reset at this stage.

crystals can be restored

I'm still pretty new to Skylanders. In an effort to learn about resetting CCs, I found this thread. With a bit of work I finally found v3.0 of the tool and having set it up and tested it briefly, I find it works great for resetting my old Skylanders.

Before I try with a CC, might I ask if I'm using the latest version? Don't want to brick my CC

TIA.
