does anyone know how to use a trainer. it said that i needed to update to version 1.34. so i downloaded that patch and it only updated it to 1.00034 or something like that. and then the trainer insructions was to open <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/div.gif" alt="" /> from the trainer and when i get into the game press alt+tab and go back to the trainer. then i was suppose to be able to choose things like unlimited health and so on. but it didn't work. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/disagree.gif" alt="" />

can anyone explain y it did not work or could someone tell me a trainer that works?

it didn't work for me either. so i played without it.

I have not tried the trainer, but there are a couple editors;

iZakaroN's SaveEditor / DAD's item editor - both are also on Kiya's site, with descriptions.


BTW the patch version 1.34 corresponds to the game version 1.0034A.

what's a trainer??....didn't even knew it existed.....

A trainer is generally a program that modifies game information in memory, to give you extra health/experience points/gold, prevent you from dying, etc. Usually you start the trainer, start the game, switch back to the trainer and enable whatever functions you can/want, then switch back to the game.

so it's kinda for beginners...or is it cheating??...thnx for the information....good too know that i have no generally use for it....

well does anyone know of a trainer that works for <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/div.gif" alt="" />.

Generally they are used for cheating, but also have valid uses. There was a trainer for Diablo (IIRC) that allowed you to backup and restore characters. The game put part of the information for each save in the registry, which meant you could not easily move your save to a different computer, or restore saves if you had to re-install windows.
Some online multi-player games store character data on the server, rather than your own hard drive, to reduce cheating. If the server has any problems, though, they can leave characters susceptible to corruption or deletion, and there are some trainers to backup and restore character data.

hmmm...so if you're not cheating it's kinda for back-up only.....well at least i understand it now..thnx again for the info....

strange...i never got the erge to use a trainer in any game...o well maybe ill start using em a bit now

no one has told me of a trainer that works.

You're using the Deviance trainer, I suppose? The only time I got the thing to work reliably was using the very first version of the that trainer, with the unpatched version of the game. It's not worth all the bugs. I'm aware they updated the trainer to work with a later patch, but as you and others have noticed, it hardly seems to work.
The other options (save editor, item editor) that Raze mentioned earlier in this thread are your best bet.
