Save Editor Rxdata Review

import marshal
# Note: Python's marshal is not identical to Ruby's.
# Use rpgmaker-rxdata library or load as binary + manual parsing.

Better: Use Ruby via RGSS or standalone:

require 'objspace'
save = Marshal.load(File.binread("Save01.rxdata"))
save[5].hp = 9999  # index 5 is $game_actors array
File.binwrite("Save01_edited.rxdata", Marshal.dump(save))

If you can load or construct the Ruby object externally: import marshal # Note: Python's marshal is not

require 'marshal' # not necessary; Marshal is built-in
data = ... # construct or load the Ruby object
File.open("Output.rxdata", "wb")  f.write(Marshal.dump(data)) 

Once you are comfortable with simple edits, explore these advanced features unique to Rxdata manipulation.

Launch your emulator and load the ROM. Pick "Continue" from the main menu. Your edits should appear instantly. Congratulations—you have just mastered the save editor rxdata workflow. Better: Use Ruby via RGSS or standalone: require
