The save game is called EDIT00000000 and can be found in %HOMEPATH%\documents\KONAMI\Pro Evolution Soccer 2016\save.
It is encrypted and thus, cannot be simply edited directly. Also, when moving from PES15 to PES16, Konami changed both the file names and the ecryption used for save games.
Tools
pes16decrypter
The first decrypter, called pes16decrypter, is a command-line tool and was written by members of the 4chan Cup community. It is available on GitHub. A binary download can also be found there.
The 4CCC maintains its own fork here. Be sure to check both as occasionally one might be ahead of the other.
Hex editors
After decrypting the save file, you may use a hex editor to change a few values yourself. Please keep in mind however that it is very easy to break the save game, so be careful. This is a good and simple way to change player names, for example. See Working with a hex editor for more information on this topic.
Save game editors
- PES Next-Gen Editor 2016 BETA 0.6.0 - Pretty complete editor including teams and line-up. Seems to be missing appearance.
- RigIt - Open-source editor written by members of the 4CC. Allows setting 4chan Cup specific options as well as otherwise unavailable appearance options.

Note: some settings also change other values within the player entry, e.g. if Registered Position is set to CB it also changes the byte left of it (in one example from 0x89 to 0x09). It is assumed that this behavior occurs for whatever values PES considers to be default.

Team-Player table
The Team-Player table is what links a Team ID to a Player ID. It is basically a Team ID, followed by a list of 32 Player IDs that correspond to the players in that team, then the respective shirt numbers for those players.
Length: 164 (0xA4) bytes
Offset (byte:bit) | Length | Description | Format | Enforced limits | Default value |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
0x00:0 | 4 bytes | Team ID | PES: must be unique | ||
0x04:0 | 128 bytes | Player IDs | 32 x 4 bytes | ||
0x84:0 | 32 bytes | Shirt Numbers | 32 x 1 bytes |
Limitations enforced by PES
Even though editing the save files externally technically allows using the full range of all values, PES puts some additional limitations in place. Some of these might be checked and corrected by the game, others are just taken as they are. This might lead to unexpected behaviour or even crash the game. Be sure to check Appendix:Rules or the rules of the invitational in question to find out what is considered legal.
