Technical Details

GVAS Parser

This editor includes a custom GVAS (Unreal Engine Save Game) parser that handles:

  • Compressed saves (GZip/Zlib)
  • All standard property types (Int, Float, Bool, String, Struct, Array, Map, etc.)
  • Nested structures and arrays
  • Binary serialization/deserialization

Save Structure

The Crab Champions save file uses:

  • UnlockedWeapons - Array of ObjectProperty paths
  • UnlockedAbilities - Array of ObjectProperty paths
  • UnlockedMeleeWeapons - Array of ObjectProperty paths
  • RankedWeapons - Array of structs with Weapon + Rank (ECrabRank enum)

Troubleshooting

Save not loading?

  • Make sure you've played Crab Champions at least once
  • Check if the save file exists at the expected location
  • Try running the editor as administrator

Changes not working in game?

  • Make sure the game is closed when editing
  • Verify you clicked "Save" after making changes
  • Check the backup file to restore if needed

Items still locked after unlock?

  • Some items may require being in the RankedWeapons array
  • Try using "God Mode" which handles all arrays
