DEADBOLT: An EASY and FAST way to get the Conquest achievement.

You’ve probably opened this guide because you’re looking for a way to save time and not memorize every Deadbolt level. I have two pieces of news for you: one good and one bad. The bad news is that you won’t be able to get achievements EASILY: the path to the coveted 100% on Steam lies through suffering. The good news is that these sufferings can be reduced many times with the help of material that is not available in any other manual.

I must say right away that we will have to edit the game files a little to get the latest achievement, which means that there will definitely be people who will call it “cheating” and insult those who use this method in every possible way. Personally, I spent a lot of time, went through the game hundreds of times and could not connect Death and Famine in one playthrough. This has greatly spoiled the feeling of the game: now I can’t enjoy the wonderful music on the levels and in the menu, I can’t enjoy shooting at the undead. That’s why I envy those who found this guide before they felt the pain of perfectionism. I didn’t have anyone to tell me about it. You don’t imagine how lucky you are.

Here’s the main problem: to get the Conquest achievement, you need to get all the achievements in one save. You don’t have to try to cheat the system – there is no workaround. All achievements must be obtained in one save and in no other way. This means that the achievements of Death (complete the game without ever dying) and Famine (complete the game in less than an hour) overlap each other. If you haven’t tried it yet, then believe me: it’s incredibly difficult.

The mechanism for scoring achievements is simple: you get an achievement in the game and at the same moment it is synchronized with Steam. You can download someone’s save, but achievements will not count, so you need to get achievements at the time of the game. This condition excludes the possibility of dishonestly obtaining Death and Famine, so you will need to get them honestly, BUT YOU CAN DO THIS IN DIFFERENT SAVES. To do this, you will have to learn how to complete the game in less than an hour (in fact, it is not difficult, but even interesting), and so that deaths do not count, you can exit the level before rebirth. That is, when you die, you have a few seconds before rebirth to leave the MISSION by clicking the “Quit mission” button (it is very important to exit the mission, and not in the menu, because in this case the achievement will not be counted, since its full wording sounds like “Complete the game never by dying and not leaving the game”).

Then, when all the achievements have been received, we will edit the list of achievements, leaving some simple one open, for example Dethroned, and that’s it.

But it is important to clarify that in this way you can get the Conquest achievement itself even without getting the rest of the achievements. It will look ugly in the Steam profile, as it will immediately be clear that you are not a very honest player. Therefore, I recommend that you first get all the other achievements in any order, in any save, using other guides, and only after that get the Coquest achievement.

VERY IMPORTANT: if you are interested in achieving Cassette Culture, then be sure to read the information from the section on this achievement before following the instructions in this section.

So, you have already completed the game and you have some saves. If they are dear to you, then start a new game and complete it before the “Smoke Signals” mission. If it doesn’t matter to you, then for convenience, perform all the actions in the first save, which is not in Hardmode mode (Although it doesn’t matter where exactly to perform these manipulations, since the game saves are primitive, the main thing is that you don’t get confused, especially if all the cells are filled with important saves. However, keep in mind that in this case you will have to deal with their numbering yourself, which in principle should not be a problem, but if it is difficult for you, do not say that the manual is incomprehensible, because you yourself chose this path. I would recommend just moving all the saves to a separate folder and starting the game over, and when we’re done, putting them back in place, but that’s up to you).

As soon as we get to the “Smoke Signals” mission, which is the third in a row, we can exit the game and get started.
The first step is to find the folder with the saves. This can be done as follows: in the system search, write %appdata% with a percent sign on both sides and go to this folder. If you are thrown into the “Roaming” folder, on the way back to “AppData”, go to the “Local” folder and look for the “deadbolt_game” folder, it is in it that we find the saves, for example, “Save1.sav”. Next, you need to open this file through any text editor, where you need to replace the information about the achievements you have received with the data block attached below in this section. After that, you need to save the changes and start the game. Next, we launch the “Smoke Signals” level and immediately get through the sewer to the toilet, where an unsuspecting zombie is sitting. We get the achievement “Deathrond” and “Conquest”.

By exactly the same principle, you can get the achievement of Cassette Culture. Since some tapes are quite rare, it will be much easier to get a tape from Roland at the “Roland” level. In saving, you can edit the information about the received cassettes (it will not be difficult to find it, since usually information about all cassettes is written at once), leaving the third one not selected, and then go to the mission “Roland”, which is the last in the first chapter. This can be done using the attached data block (The last cassette is only available in hard mode, so you don’t need to change its value by one):

cassette_unlocked[1]=”1.000000″
cassette_unlocked[2]=”1.000000″
cassette_unlocked[3]=”0.000000″
cassette_unlocked[4]=”1.000000″
cassette_unlocked[5]=”1.000000″
cassette_unlocked[6]=”1.000000″
cassette_unlocked[7]=”1.000000″
cassette_unlocked[8]=”1.000000″
cassette_unlocked[9]=”1.000000″
cassette_unlocked[10]=”1.000000″
cassette_unlocked[11]=”0.000000″

IMPORTANT: Unfortunately, this way you will not be able to get the Cassette Culture in the same save that you have already edited. Therefore, first you need to get it in the way described above, and then get the Conquest at the “Smoke Signals” level.
