Access past Farmville Mystery Boxes and other items in Market
Thursday, May 27, 2010
UPDATE: Upload the file here! It is in an attachment in the forum post!
Now when I got to the step about replacing the file, it ended up as a text file. I'm not sure what I did (just wing it) but it worked and I was able to see all past mystery boxes in Farmville and even send them to neighbors...even the 7-11 cow!!!
The steps:
Steps by Rich:
"1) Clear all your cache for your browser. Then open your farm.
Do this on your browser by clicking Tools>options>advanced>network>clear...you may also want to change the number from 50 to 1000 so some of your pages load a little faster. it's where I have all my pcs set on. If firefox is unstable then you can download www.flock.com and use it the snag bar will work so will most of your normal add ons.
2) Just like in the previous hack you need a dummy account or a Trusted friend to work with.
3)Open a new tab and enter "about:cache" into the browser's address bar.
4) The second group "Disk cache device" will have a blue link Example :"List Cache Entries" click this which will open your cache for your games.
5)Click edit at the top of your browser and select find.
6)Type in the word gamesettings it will match a file called gamesettings.xml
7)click on the link it will look similar to this:
http://static-facebook.farmville.com/v2737/gameSettings.xml.gz
8) The 7th line down is what your looking for. The last numbers are important and everything before that will be needed as well the line will say:" file on disk:
9) Copy just the last numbers down on a notepad
C:\Users\Johndoe\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\t977azle.default\Cache\ A3DD804Bd01
I spaced mine so you could find them easy
10)Then download this file to your desktop
11)Click your windows start menu open "Computer" and copy the first part of the link
Example: C:\Users\Johndoe\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\t977azle.default\Cache\ (no numbers on the end this time. This will get you to the cache area of the game where most hacks are done.
12)Finally go back to your desktop or where ever you saved the file you downloaded from media share. And rename the file to the numbers on the notepad.
13) Finally copy the renamed file to the cache folder I had you open it will ask you if you want to replace the file if you have done this correctly. Go ahead and replace then refresh your farm. Click on specials or any tab you get the old mystery boxes and plenty more. Now your all ready but here's the catch you can not place these items on your farm! You have to send it to a friend that has done this same hack or log in a dummy account and send the items to yourselves. if you want the market to return to normal just refresh.
Final note this file was made before the new items so one thing might be missing! But if you look you can send the new years ball for COINS! As well as get the big oak! That was never released! If you have any questions post in this forum only I'm going to play some more and see what I can find good luck! the items do cost farm cash to send! Sorry to cut into everyone's profit they was making off this but it's not rocket science! I did delay my post on this cause for some attempts to take this hack father but out of risk it being shut down from all the people wanting to make a profit I figured I would let yall run with the big boys for a bit! Please share as much as you want!
Enjoy again Rich!"
Some say they cannot download the file. I'll upload it elsewhere. In the meantime, email me for the file.

Here is how to do it; 1st clear your cache, 2nd open your farm, 3rd open a new browser tab, 4th type in gamesettings, then click go.
The key here is to make sure you clear your browser cache.
It won't load my farm on the second time around - it just hangs.
it works if u r using it on AN ACCOUNT THAT IS HIGH IN LEVEL IT WILL NOT WORK U NEED TO MAKE A NEW ACCOUNT
I am a different anonymous than the one above.
I am stuck at 13 it does not ask to replace a file. It places it in there and it is as a txt file. I am doing this on a new account so the levels dont play into it. Any help would be appreciated. email at lauter20@yahoo.com
You say to email you for file but i can not find an email to send a request.
how do i make a dummy account? :s
I am getting stuck at 13 also. It's showing as a txt and does not ask to replace the file. Am I missing something? Please get back to me.

have a doubt in the last part. plz mail me back gamer686@onewaymail.com
where to I paste the txt file, I have my computer open only :S do i paste it there?
Having a problem where my farm will not load after replacing the file. If you need it my email is bigkratveg@gmail.com
to make a another farm just make another face book account ? simple. this works for me only on low level accounts . if it doesnt ask to to replace file then you are not loading your farm correctly or not clearing your cache before you load your farm or not opening the correct cache folder in the address bar, or renaming the file to the correct number it tells you to . you paste it in the cache folder u copy the url from where the nummber you name your file from.
C:\Users\*****\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\*******.default\Cache
it wouldn't ask me to replace because the old file is not .txt file, so now i have 2 files with the same name...that's wrong right?? please help!!! where did i do wrong???
this will expose your account to hackers. beware! if you still want to proceed, you had been warned!
It doesn't expose your account! LOL!
The file is ready for download. I've added it in the link at the top of this post. Thanks!

Farm wouldn't load? Did Zynga fixed it?

Damn! It was working last week when I set everything up but it took me some time to get all the codes needed... and now my farm won't load! Ohhhhh, I'm pissed!
Are we able to do this yet? I got stuck at where its supost to ask you to replace a file but it didnt. What can i do to be able to do this.
thanks

i dont get the step 12 and 13..
the file is all text
ugh i got it working but the farm wont load :\
It holds my farm up at like 75 % and i did The Thing Right I replaced the fire D:
Hi.. this has been patched I assume because the farm doesn;t load.. just wondering because I know people who are able to access old items as of yesterday but they wont share the secret!..lol
i used it up to a few days ago i found it would only work for me on accounts under level 20. i found my account that i was sending too would not load it but the others would under level 20.
6 june 2010
Any news on if this has been patched or if anyone has it working as of today?
Ok I just gonna post that the gamesettings file wasn't there, but i went into a diff acc and it was there and I did everything but it got stuck at the loading page and never loaded :( So maybe it's fixed now?
Today was my first try, I did everything right, And my farm just pauses at 75%.
When you are saving the file just save it as the letter/number combo as stated...no extension on the end...just the number, leave out ".txt" yeesh some ppl j/k ;)
no longer works It has been fixed.
Is this going to be fixed so we can use it again?
everytime there is a market update the file needs to be updated to reflect the new market items
