Ultima 5 Hacker

A Python program that hacks the legendary retro game, Ultima 5. This project was initially built for my Cybersecurity class with minimal requirements, but since I enjoyed it, I developed it to be a full-fledged Ultima 5 hacking tool.

The program allows to view/edit the following:

1. Single character attributes
2. All characters attributes
3. Characters enabled and their names
4. Equipment
5. Items
6. Spells
7. Reagents
8. Armaments

The program also has the following features:

1. Input validation with customer ranges: The program will check if a numeric value that is entered for an attribute is within the valid range.

2. File validation: The program will check if the SAVED.GAM file exists, and prompt for correct path if not found at the default path C:\Ultima_5\SAVED.GAM

3. Save protection: The program will not overwrite the actual file until a save command is issued, preventing accidental changes. Also, if the user issues an exit command while modifications have not been saved yet, the program will prevent the user and issue a warning. A second exit command will force exit.

Notes:

• The program is compatible with Python 3.6 or higher.
• To run the program, open a terminal and navigate to its directory, then run the following command:

  python Main.py
  

  or

  python3 Main.py
  

• The program modifies the SAVED.GAM file, present inside the game directory. A copy of that file is included to experiment with before modifying the actual game file.
