How does one modify the save file?
Looks like the savefiles are plain text editable, if not exactly clear what everything does. I imagine turning a lot of the 0s in higher numbers would result in the mentioned shenanigans.
I would suggest Notepad or Notepad++ then, Dark. The first one because its already there and the second because it has line numbers.

Someone matter to share the pinball save? (unless that's forbidden for some reason that I'm not aware of)
Also, I'm using Sublime Text 2.

I find it funny how this thread alone is probably more active than the entire Magicmaker forums.
Also, having fun with the savefiles gave me at best a perpetual supply of Grade D Chaos Butterflies (a total of 8, because it stopped soon after).

Nothing else.

I didn't see anything forbidding it, but if it's forbidden and someone notices, PM me or note it in the thread and I'll remove it. Any case, I think this is a pinball save for your perusal.

I'm finding Propane Nightmares awfully appropriate to play in the background with this thing.

As far as editing the saves go...

1 1 0  "Magic Wand" 4 0 0 0 0 4 0 0 0 0 4 0 0 0 0 4 0 0 0 0 4 0 0 0 0 4 0 0 0 0 4 0 0 0 0 4 0 0 0 0
                    Illus.Dst CrystlBl  Expl.Pwdr LghtngRd  HarpyFthr OpticLens SlimeHeartEvrCldIce


There's a few more I pinpointed, but they're way later in the row. Didn't get a chance to test all of them since people showed up at work.  :(

Generally speaking, it goes from A downward and every 5 is a new mod. I haven't tried going above 4 yet, and having too many seems to break the game. You can also unequip them, from left to right, by talking to the wand guy, removing them, keep the changes, talk again, etc.

Ed. Also, that batch of numbers in the middle right before "1 1 1  "Magic Spell"" seems to have something to do with your inventory. Set it all to 1 and you'll have one of each mod. Maybe artifacts too, but I don't have the archaeologist open on this save.

My Magic Maker got corrupted on the first save.

I am going to wait a while before I try this game again. It seemed to have potential I just don't have that much time.

For people with corrupted saves, this might help.

It looks like this is an issue with character customization not saving properly. I don't know how soon I can fix this but I will get it done as soon as I figure it out.

For now, you can work around this issue by opening up SAVEFILE in notepad, and deleting the twelve numbers in line 7 before the E. (Keeping the E is important, or else the game will lock up) This will reset your character appearance to the default look, and the game should load properly.
Worked perfectly for me.

It's well worth trying to get it to work in my opinion. It's fun putting together random combinations to see what sticks. (I seem to be awful at that... most of my spells are painfully weak.)

Well here is a trick for some things

Wands do not sacrifice health or mana so they can get direct enhancements so don't be afraid to attach some serious firepower to it.

As well beware that some spell effects are unhelpful or are only useful in combination with other effects.

Also yeah that fixed worked.

I don't know what I did, but my combo of Lightning Rod+String+Dust+Explosive just murders stuff, even things it's nowhere near pointed at. Mind you, the String(called Spider Silk ingame, why are we saying "String"?) and the Lightning Rod are both A-Rank, and the Illision Dust and Explosive Powder are B-Rank.

I think the trails left behind by the String(called Spider Silk ingame, why are we saying "String"?) also chain-lightning, meaning each bit is basically a floating mine.

Sadly, I can find naught but F-Rank Lens.

Fun fact, Laser effect on a wand gives you a continuous attack beam.

I've been using that orbital shotgun of spider+silk+crystal ball for tougher enemies, and a Chaos Butterfly + Slime Heart + Explosive Powder + Optic Lens for dealing with crowds

Semi-continuous.

There are short pauses of no damage.

Find the recipe for a lense by disassembling one. Then create one with higher rank ingredients.
