DIY Hack Talking Tom Gold Run Modify Gold/Dynamite/etc. and Unlock Characters

Drivium · May 10, 2018

Tested w/Talking Tom Gold Run v1.6.0.14 (applies through version 2.6.5)

The file we'll be modding is: com.outfit7.talkingtomgoldrun.plist

The actual path may vary for your specific device, but for me it's located here: /private/var/mobile/Containers/Data/Application/ABA28679-D4B4-4E57-8E4C-3BAFB12911EA/Library/Preferences

Use your preferred file explorer to view. I used Filza.

You may need to disable internet access before modding. I didn't and it still worked, but if the mods fail to stick, it's something you could try.

Also, be sure to fully close the game before modding.

===================================

Modding Values

Scroll down until you find UserState.CurrencyState and open. Inside, you'll see something that resembles this:

{"accounts":[ {"id":"bar-gold", "balance":"12420582"}, {"id":"dynamite", "balance":"184603"}, {"id":"magnet", "balance":"996189"}, {"id":"helmet", "balance":"996419"}, {"id":"plane", "balance":"995689"}, {"id":"vault", "balance":"999999"}, {"id":"diamond", "balance":"994679"}, {"id":"doubler", "balance":"995839"} ], "paidUser":"false", "facebookLikeRewarded":"false", "facebookLoginRewarded":"false", "vKontakteSubscribeRewarded":"false", "vKontakteLoginRewarded":"false", "twitterFollowRewarded":"false", "newsletterRewarded":"false", "pushRewarded":"false", "youtubeRewarded":"false"}

Simply mod the corresponding "balance" and save.

--------------------

Modding Characters

Scroll down until you find LocalState.cS and open. Inside, you'll see something that resembles this:

{"cs":{"s":[ "cyber_angela" ], "u":[ "angela", "hank", "ginger", "ben", "tom2", "angela2", "police_tom", "police_angela", "police_hank", "agent_tom", "super_tom", "super_angela", "hyper_tom", "cyber_angela", "king_tom", "hawaiian_hank", "cowboy_tom", "valkyrie_angela", "pirate_ginger", "cowboy_angela", "fireman_tom", "zombie_ben", "splashy_tom", "elf_angela", "kungfu_hank", "princess_angela", "astronaut_tom" ], "uLs":[ [ "14", "4", "3", "4" ], [ "4", "4", "4", "14" ], [ "5", "5", "14", "6" ], [ "6", "14", "6", "6" ], [ "9", "9", "8", "8" ], [ "14", "7", "7", "12" ], [ "8", "8", "14", "15" ], [ "15", "15", "15", "15" ], [ "15", "15", "15", "15" ], [ "15", "15", "15", "15" ], [ "15", "15", "15", "15" ], [ "15", "15", "15", "15" ], [ "15", "15", "15", "15" ], [ "15", "15", "15", "15" ], [ "15", "15", "15", "15" ], [ "15", "15", "15", "15" ], [ "9", "14", "15", "9" ], [ "15", "15", "15", "15" ], [ "15", "15", "15", "15" ], [ "15", "15", "15", "15" ], [ "15", "15", "15", "15" ], [

"15", "15", "15", "15" ], [ "15", "15", "15", "15" ], [ "15", "15", "15", "15" ], [ "15", "15", "15", "15" ], [ "15", "15", "15", "15" ], [ "15", "15", "15", "15" ], [ "15", "15", "15", "15" ] ]}, "ys":{"s":[ "yard_tom2" ], "u":[ "yard_angela", "yard_hank", "yard_ginger", "yard_ben", "yard_angela2", "yard_tom2", "yard_hank2" ], "nU":[ "yard_angela", "yard_hank", "yard_ginger", "yard_ben", "yard_angela2", "yard_tom2", "yard_hank2" ], "uLs":[ [ "5", "2", "0", "0" ], [ "1", "0", "0", "0" ], [ "0", "0", "0", "0" ], [ "0", "0", "0", "0" ], [ "0", "0", "0", "0" ], [ "0", "0", "0", "0" ], [ "0", "0", "0", "0" ], [ "0", "0", "0", "0" ], [ "0", "0", "0", "0" ], [ "0", "0", "0", "0" ] ]}}

The area bolded is the area you'll add the character names. For the version I'm running (v1.6.0.14), the string above unlocks all characters. Newer versions will likely have more characters to add. To know what their actual names are, scroll down in the main plist until you see headers that begin with "iap.com.outfit7.talkingtomgoldrun..." Example Screen Shot 1. Each one of these contains the string name for the unlockables/earnables. For example, here is the string for Officer Tom. "police.tom" becomes "police_tom". Basically, just replace the period with an underscore in LocalState.cS.

=======================

The version I tested with is pretty old. Someone let me know if this works with newer versions.

If this helped you, show me some love with a like!

First!

Good job! I also want to state that the path changes on each device. To find it, you need to go the the Data/Application's path and find the game.

This doesn’t work with the latest version of the game. Hopefully you can share the version you used for people wanting to downgrade the app version

Latest version tested with is 2.6.1. Added to OP. I can NOW confirm, that if you're using version 2.6.1 and make the mods THEN update, your mods will carry over.

**EDIT1: Looks like the character/level modding still stands. Looks like the method for modding values may have changed, but may still be possible. Investigating.

**EDIT2: Latest version I'm seeing is 2.6.5 and the same mods are still applicable. You sure you didn't overlook them? I don't know if it matters, but I am on a 32bit device, so perhaps the latest 32bit version of the app is different than the latest 64bit version?
