Disco Elysium – How to Get Items by Editing Save File

A few words beforehand….

Disco Elysium is definitely full of ways to progress in main as well as additional quests. At the very start of the game my detective faced the hanged body and a task to examine it but only in my subsequent playthough or reading reddit posts I discovered that I could get hold of Yellow Gardening Gloves and Ampoule of Ammonia (help you pass checks associated with the task mentioned above) or lieutenant Kim handkerchief (wash the puke and cherish this piece of cloth for the rest of your life).

My gamer soul that likes unraveling game secrets, find possible outcomes and collect all the junk on map was instantly in pursuit mode for the information on the things I missed.

So if you don’t feel like replaying the game from the start or reloading and replaying hours in your current run but want to obtain a particular item for collector greed / role playing / any other joyful feeling… هذا الدليل لك.

Now straight to the point…

خطوة 1Locate your save folder directory:

ج:\Users\……..\AppData\LocalLow\ZAUM Studio\Disco Elysium\SaveGames

ملحوظة: it is strongly advised to make a backup copies before any manipulations with save files Open the desired archive (.ntwtf file extension). Find file looking like this “…2nd.ntwtf.json”.

Extract/copy the file from archive. Open it with Notepad.

خطوة 2Find the line:

Add a line with ID of the item you want. Don’t forget the comma and quotation marks.

خطوة 3For example the item that you want to add is a clothing item. Let’s add Fairweather T-500 Helmet.

{
“Key”: 1,

}

Add a comma after your last curly bracket and next lines:

“Value”: “hat_t500”
}

ملحوظة: Author do not know whether adding the items of T-500 set in such a way will count for the achievement Or the item that you want to add is a general item. Let’s add Kim Kitsuragi handkerchief.

Find the line:

Following general view of the list
