Thread: HackREQ - Requiem CSV Hacking Just got Easier!

HackREQ is a 100% Free application that overrides values in the CSV files on the fly when Requiem is loading. This avoids having to modify the VDK files. You can specify multiple Profiles and launch multiple instances of Requiem with different hacks applied quickly and easily.

The profiles are easily saved and shared with fellow users being a simple xml format.

To use:

Launch HackREQ and you will be presented with the default profile included with this version. As you can see, there are several Profiles defined for both US and SEA servers. If needed for each profile, change the Requiem System Folder to match your installation of Requiem. Don't forget to press Save!


Each Profile contains one or more Overrides to apply when the game is loading.


The Action specifies how the value will be modified.
The Value is used to modify the actual value.


Each Override applies to a specific Table (CSV File).


And a specific Column in that Table (CSV File).


You can apply an Override conditionally by using Filters.


This example shows an Override that will Decrease the actual value by 5 in the Use_Casting_Time Column of the SkillAsset Table where the actual value is between 15 and 60.


When you are ready to play Requiem, you just select a Profile and press the Play button.
HackREQ will launch Requiem, hook into it and apply the Overrides as Requiem loads.
This process can be monitored for problems in the Trace window.


You may now shut down HackREQ or if you choose you may continue to use it to start/stop multiple instances of Requiem.


To stop an instance of Requiem, select the process from the list and press the Stop button.


You may create as many Profiles as you want and each Profile can contain as many Overrides as you want.

Use the buttons on the toolbar to create new Profiles and Overrides. You can also copy and paste Profiles as well as Overrides.

Don't hesitate to ask questions if anything is unclear.

Enjoy experimenting!

*NOTE: If your client currently uses modified VDK files, HackREQ will modify those values as they are loaded and produce possibly unwanted results.
