It is through hex editing, you can read the wiki for more information.

Theoretically, it's possible to have 200+ cars in the safehouse. However, since each car must have a unique customization slot, and these customization slots are limited, the maximum number of cars is also significantly lowered.

Here's how I would do it:
1. Buy and keep a car in your career garage.
2. Add in whatever cars you want into My Cars.
3. Open the savegame with a hex-editor, and change the location of the My Car cars to Career Safehouse. You're not done yet.
4. Look at the carcode for the car in your Career Safehouse and find the Career Slot Link number.
5. Replace the Career Slot Link number in the cars you added (it should be FF) with the Career Slot Link number of the car that was already in your Career Safehouse.

Basically, you move cars from My Cars to the Career Safehouse, and then give them all the same pre-existing Career Slot ID. The Career Slot ID is necessary, otherwise the game crashes. Since there's only enough room for 8 (I think) Career Slots, they must be shared amongst cars if you want more than the max supported by Carbon.

Note: Cars that are locked will remain locked, even if you add them into your Safehouse in this manner.

How do i do all this.....? (srry...i don't know all this hexing stuff too well,but i'm trying to learn!)Please tell me in detail,step by step......

If you can do it for me......here's my profile(though i would like to do it myself,as it would teach me about hexing)


PS : another question unrelated to editing....is there any place here where you can share news about the next NFS.....i know something that might interest everybody here.

1. To share news about the next NFS, either post in an existing topic in the General Discussions forum, or create a new topic. Or you could PM a moderator and tell them the news. Then they may post it as a news item.

2. There's a wiki that should explain how to hex-edit Carbon's savegames.

I won't do any more beyond this. Learn to be able to rely on yourself.

well.....thanx for the help.
Sorry if my reply bothered you. I was just getting annoyed and frustated having tried(and needless to say,messed) to hex my profile,over and over again.So, defeated i thought maybe you can do it.
I have read the wiki,though...but found it to be a bit too complex.Thats why i asked.
My apologies once again...

It is complex, that's why not a lot of people can do it. It's also why I won't do it for you, or anyone else. I just don't have the time to do requests.
