OK - I am far from educated in this field, but something dawned upon me recently that I was wondering if would be at all possible.
I understand most of the stuff going on in the game was considered server-side, npcs, world effects and events, etc. But, is it true that we do have enough local files to at the very least get into a zone?
I was wondering if it would be at all possible to use CheatEngine much like was done to enter the costume editor - only, in this instance, beam you straight into a zone (such as Atlas Park) using the character extractor to 'clone' your character.
I know this has been asked a million times, but here's where I get curious. Though it'd be boring, I'm sure we'd all like to be able to just see our characters moving and flying around any environment, empty or not. Then I was thinking - if we could get this far, would it be possible to use CheatEngine or something local to tweak the game into allowing the player DEV commands?
This would potentially leave a player with the ability to create his own enemies, grant themselves powers and generally have fun playing "solo".
Is this something far from our reach?
