Welcome back to another My Summer Car tutorial — in this guide, Victor walks us through how to install and use MSC Editor, one of the most powerful save-game editors for the game. This tool allows you to teleport lost items, repair your Satsuma instantly, manage keys, adjust in-game time, and so much more. If you want to master your My Summer Carexperience and fix bugs or experiment freely, MSC Editor is a must-have.
🧰 Step 1: Download MSC Editor
- Visit nexusmods.com (link usually found in the video description).
- On the MSC Editor mod page, go to the Files tab.
- Click Manual Download.
- Choose Slow Download unless you’re a premium Nexus user.
Once the .zip file is downloaded, extract it to a folder of your choice.
🛠️ Step 2: Launch MSC Editor
- Open the extracted folder.
- Choose between:
- x64 folder for 32-bit Windows
- x86 folder for 64-bit Windows
(Yes, it’s reversed from what you’d expect — double check!)
- Launch MSCEditor.exe.
- A prompt may offer a community guide — click “No Thanks” if you’re already familiar.
📂 Step 3: Load Your Save File
- Click Files > Open.
- Navigate through:
- C: > Users > YourUsername > AppData > LocalLow
- Select Amistech > My Summer Car
- Choose the file named defaultES2File — this is your main save file.
Once loaded, you’ll see a full editor menu with all save variables exposed.
🔧 Step 4: Editor Features Overview
✅ Basic Search
Type items like nitrous, worldTime, etc., to search and edit specific values.
🚗 Satsuma Report
- See if anything is broken.
- Use one-click repair tools like Fix Loose Bolts.
🧰 Maintenance Tab
- Fully repair the Satsuma with one click.
- Change gear ratios.
- Adjust tuning stats.
🗺️ Tools Tab
- Teleport Object: For example, teleport a missing antenna to your garage table.

🔑 Manage Keys

- Hayosuo Van
- Gifu Truck
- Your House
- Just click the checkbox and save to unlock.
🌤️ Time and Weather Tab

🧪 Example Use Case
Let’s say you want to change the day from Monday to Wednesday:
- Find worldDay, enter 3, press Enter.
- Go to Files > Save.
- Launch the game — you’ll now be playing on a Wednesday.
✅ Final Notes
