Here’s how to use money, XP, rank, and content cheats in Snowrunner.
Saber Interactive and Focus Home Interactive’s Snowrunner is an off-road simulator game that lets you experience the challenges of driving through harsh conditions and terrain. Snowrunner puts you in the shoes of a truck driver, taking on challenges such as delivering cargo, helping with construction in disaster-laden regions or aiding repairs in less-than-ideal environments.
Money and upgrades are the names of the game, as having the best equipment for the job will help make completing challenges and missions more manageable. With the game being as challenging as it is, getting the best tools for the job will cost a lot of time and frustration.
The good news is you can cheat your way to virtually unlimited money, XP, and rank and even unlock all the upgrades in Snowrunner through a few simple steps. We will walk you through how to do that in this quick guide.
How to Use Cheats in Snowrunner
Snowrunner does not have built-in cheat codes you can punch into an in-game console to add money, experience, or rank, so you can’t cheat the game through traditional means.
If you’re playing on PC, however, you can easily edit your Snowrunner save game file and modify parameters to cheat your way through the game to add money, XP, rank, and unlock upgrades. Unfortunately, since console players can’t modify save files, the cheat method outlined in this guide only covers PC players.
How to Use Money and XP Cheats in Snowrunner
Since Snowrunner does not support in-game cheats, modifying your save file is the only way to add money, XP, or rank to your Snowrunner account. You can do this by swapping out specific values in the CompleteSave.dat/completesave.cfg file in the Snowrunner save file location.
Here’s how to find the save game file and edit it to cheat in Snowrunner.
IMPORTANT: Back up your CompleteSave.dat/completesave.cfg file before modifying the values in the guide below.
Locate your Snowrunner Save Game file (default location is %USERPROFILE%DocumentsMy GamesSnowRunnerbasestorage, where %USERPROFILE% is your PC’s account name.)
2. look for a folder with a long string of letters and numbers in the location above. Open the folder to find the CompleteSave.dat/completesave.cfg file.
3. Once you’ve located the CompleteSave.dat/completesave.cfg file, open the file in Wordpad, and look for the following parameters. Use the Find function (CTRL+F) to locate the parameters faster.
“money: xxxx”
“experience: xxxx”
4. Change the parameter values to the following:
“money: 1000000”
“experience: 250000”
Set experience to 250000 as this is the max value for max level in Snowrunner. Keep the money at 1000000 so the game doesn’t crash.
5. Save, then launch Snowrunner to verify the changes.
How to Unlock All Upgrades in Snowrunner
You can also modify a slew of values in the save game file to unlock upgrades in Snowrunner. Use the Notepad/Wordpad Find function to search for the “upgradesGiverData” value in the CompleteSave.dat/completesave.cfg save file.
Once you’ve located the “upgradesGiverData” value, use the Find function again to look for all the “:0}” values. Swap out all the “:0}” values to “:2}” to unlock all the upgrades in the game.
There are a lot of these “:0}” values, so just be patient and swap out each one to “:2}”.
Will I get banned for using cheats in Snowrunner?
You won’t get banned for using cheats in Snowrunner. Snowrunner is a co-op simulation game with unlimited resources, so it is only a matter of time before you unlock all the upgrades and amass money. Modifying your save game file to speed up progress in-game is a common and harmless practice, even among Snowrunner fans.
However, remember that cheating will cause you to miss the novelty of completing exciting challenges in the game. The game’s challenging nature is part of its charm, and spending time completing these can be very rewarding – an experience you will miss if you add unlimited money and bump your XP to max from the get-go.
