How to use

WARNING: This project requires you to have a Pi-hole server and a WiFi capable device. (Built-in or external WiFi dongle)

This guide only applies to Windows PCs, but instructions for Linux are coming soon. Your computer must be configured to use the Pi-hole DNS Server!

  1. Install Node.js, npm and git if not installed
  2. Open terminal
    • Search for cmd or Windows Terminal in windows search bar
  3. Clone repository git clone https://github.com/martin0300/GDPS-Editor-2.2-Save-Extractor
  4. Run npm i and node extractor.mjs in your terminal
  5. Setup Pi-hole settings
    • Add gdpseditor.com and point it to your computer's local ip in Local DNS Records (Local DNS -> DNS Records)
      • Your local ip will be printed when running node extractor.mjs
    • Add game.gdpseditor.com and point it to gdpseditor.com in Local CNAME Records (Local DNS -> CNAME Records)
  6. Setup Windows settings
    • Disable IPv6 in network adapter settings (Guide)
    • Create a WiFi hotspot (Guide)
    • Run ipconfig /flushdns in your terminal
  7. Connect your phone to your computer's WiFi hotspot
  8. Open GDPS Editor 2.2
  9. Click settings -> Account -> Save and wait for it to finish
  10. Wait for script to write Finished
  11. Browse the save data from the folder saveFiles using https://gdcolon.com/gdsave/
  12. Cleanup
    • Disable WiFi hotspot
    • Reenable IPv6 in network adapter settings
    • Reconnect phone to home network

How does it work?

This works by creating a capture server and pointing gdpseditor.com and game.gdpseditor.com to it using Pi-hole. Then when the client on your device tries to backup the data it will be redirected to the capture server and it will be saved to CCGameManager and CCLocalLevels.
