Hello everyone.
I wanted to extract some screenshots from the ufodedia. in doing so i had to "hack" myself into the savegames, to get all the ufopedia entries. It wasn't very hard though - you just had to change some hexentries periodically to 02... not a tough thing to do.

However i stumbled over one more entrie than i suspected. There is a new entrie in the ufopedia.
UFODEDIA>UFO COMPONENTS>ALIEN REPRODUCTION
With a nice picture of some sort of cloning chambers.

I would like to upload and attach a modified up.dat, but obviously i am to dumb. so here is a description instead:
Open up.dat in a hex editor. and change the following values to 02:

08, 14, 20 , 2C, 38, 44, 50 , 5C, 68, 74, 80 , 8C, 98, A4, B0 , BC, 38, 44, 50 , 5C 38, 44, 50 , 5C, 38, 44, 50 , 5C,.... continue this scheme until you reached the end of the file. most values will be 00 before you change them, some will be 03 - i suspect 00 means NOT YET, 03 means from the beginning and 02 means researched.

If you are new to HEX editing, create a new safegame ant try this. It is an easy exercise - the maximum damage is ruining your savegame.

I think i may have uploaded the modified up.dat to the Files after all.
It could show up in UFO:EU>Cheats.

See you around. smile.gif

Hi Johannes. smile.gif

I'm not going to approve your upload because we already have Khor Chin Heong's XC1 Full UFOPaedia. No sense in having two files which do the same thing, eh? wink.gif
