is this only for boarderlands on the pc? and if its not how do you do it on a xbox 360
Yes, this is PC only. Don’t buy loot lust games on a console if you want to edit your saves.
I find it actually easier to edit console games for xbox 360 simply use modio and a usb drive to get the files onto your computer. After playing around with several editors this one and willow tree are great to use and the easiest both are awsome.
I’m sure that makes sense in your head, but save editing through the PC is plenty easier, don’t fool yourself.
Very constructive reply… it’s 6 and two 3′s really, though a PC game is already there for the editing, consoles games are becoming easier to modify as the days pass by, so he’s not all wrong, though modio is simply another tool a PC user could conjure up, save editing is general is always done on a computer of some sort, so it’s not really a case of it being easier on PC when there both done there to begin with ? i’m guessing you didn’t really think your sarcastic reply through, but hey i wouldn’t of expected much more from another of the many trolls on the net these days.
I’ve been into blogging for quite some time and this is definitely a effective and well written post. You should definitely check out the Xbox Stealth ebook on how to mod your 360 and burn an unlimited number of games for Free!
Anyways, good luck on your blog, and feel free to check out : Xbox Stealth
Thanks so much!
All the best,

i cannot find my save data for the pc
thank you!
i skipped to one of the dlc missions when i was only level10 and got stuck at a roadblock, which i got killed continuously because the respawn location is right next to the roadblock, and all the soldiers are like lvl45.

how do i fix this? please respond with help

Hi excellent program but I dont need it for stats editing I only need it for storyline , cause I play with my friend coop and I want to be on his mission , is this any way possible? Thanks
is there a way to set how many equipped weapon slots you have unlocked? I typed “suicide” in console, and my 4 weapon slots went back to 2. and I can’t see how to possibly fix this without editing my .sav file.
dude this sucks. this is only for the pc. u should consider making a mod this easy for the xbox.
STFU and dont flame
Get out mate, if you want to mod shit do it on the PC and quit whining just because nobody can be arsed helping shitty consoles out.
SargeantShizzle speaks for both of us. Consoles are lame.

dl willow’s tree for that
question for author :
could you please make level editor for weapons , thanks
does it work on ps3
No it’s for PC only.
Why cant u get to level 61?
Probably because he hasn’t worked it out for the General Knoxx Expansion yet. I know that if you set the experience to “9999999″ and finish editing and then load it up the game instantly makes you level 61 without even having to gain 1 xp point. Then the next time you exit the game it will save you as level 61.
So, whenever I try to run the program, it gives me a “The program failed to initialize properly”
What you need to do is download the latest .NET Framework. Fixed everything for me.
umm i need some help…. my character wont load on my ps3 anymore and i think its because of this program cuz i have the 1.30 patch and i accidentally opened my saved file in the program and yeah…. how can i fix it?
@soldier4snin
I really hope that is a sarcastic comment. If you extracted your PS3 saves to PC and used a PC editor for console games without reading any post, or a read me, then you deserve to have saves wiped.
Thanks, Good proggy for BL saves. I like it.
Hi, I used this to change my backpack size from 45 to 100, when I load up borderlands and select my level 43 character, it starts it from scratch, so im back at level 1 with nothing done and the default backpack size.
any help would be appreciated, thanks.
Did you save to a new filename? You need to update the Save Slot number to the correct value if you did that.
I saved it as birck, it was save0001, so when i change something do I just save it as the same name as the old unaltered file?, sorry im useless at things like this, hence why i havent touched willowtree.
just changed it save0001 and remove the original to a backup folder just incase, but it works, thanks Rick your god send.
hey man how (or where) would I get my hands on the list of gun codes and gun addon codes etc.
your all basterd WANKERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WHY CANT PYOU JUST DOWNLOADWILLOW TREE
Hi, I’m confused about how this program works. I was a level 25 hunter before I had format my hard drive. My biggest question are these.
1) I started Borderlands from scratch and once again selected my Character to be the hunter Mordecai. At the new-u station I changed my name from “Mordecai” to “banyanbraid” once I started the game. I understand how to change values in your program, except in the new-u tab. what do I do here because I’m lost for this tab. Do I have have the same name in the new-u tab as I do on my saved profile in the game?
2)Once I save my settings on this program, how do I incorporate this save file into the game?
Thanks
OMG i lust got my ps3 back from fixing it. first game i get borderlands. beat it. downloaded this and willotree. neither work. when it loads it says this saved game could not be loaded. HOW DO I MOD IT AND BE ABLE TO PLAY IT. plz help thx
P.S. i got a ps3
read. pc only.
hi, where or how do i get guns codes or addons?
When I install your program, Kaspersky AV tells me that your program is trying to access my DNS cache, and trying to send UDP packets to a remote server.
Also, after trying to open a save file, Kaspersky AV tells me that your program is trying to change its’ security zone settings by editing my registry.
Care to explain?
I’m sure there is a logical explanation, but programming is not my forte… (Am a hardware geek, not a software geek…)
PS
I also get the UDP and DNS messages when installing Willowtree.
Thanks so much! All I wanted to do was re-add 3 storage slots after I accidentally sold a SDU and this solved my problem.
Does this work on 1.3x patched games? My previously edited files no longer have the custom weapons I made before 1.3 and I want to put them back in. I miss my scoped Shep’s Elephant Gun that does 1600 damage =(
i tried editing a sniper rifle and upon loading into the game, i find out it has disappeared.
thank god for backups, but now i need to find something that actually works.
Hey. Sry for my bad english here..
But I used willowtree for my savefile, I forgot to make a backup so now Iam stuck… The savefile will not work after I changed the backpack size… Borderlands just turns off when I klicks at singel player, without the savefile borderlands works fine, when I use the savefile it says general protection fault. And I have tried to test this program, but how can you fix so you are at a certain quest? I was at new haven at the second playthrough level 45…. Someone help me? I think the version of willow tree was for 360, really dont know… If you can make a copy of my savefile so I is at the same quest as before, please tell me…
Thanks Robin.
everytime i try to open the editor it tells me borderlaands save editor has stopped working. can u help me on what to do about that. it does the same for willowtree to

Anyone know how to edit the guns to level 61 and why do the pearl guns not register in here?
Wow man, this is GREAT. Only one little problem though. To fully max out the skill point board, you need 90 points to fill out all the main skills, 15 to fill out all 3 super skills at the bottom, and 1 more, the most important, to activate it. So this is my little gripe, I was hoping to get my Roland to have a fully maxed Scorpio turret, but with a max of 100 points in the editor when 106 is needed is a little turn down.
In the mean time, keep up the great work!
Thaaaaaaaaank you so much for making this! I’m not actually using it for stats (honest!), I just needed a way to change the save slots so my two characters would stop overlapping each other (and erasing them! D: )
…Not to say I won’t try it out for the occasional bit of fun (like I totally am now with a character named “RAGEHAAAX!”, hehe), but nonetheless, thank you for saving me a crapton of stress.
Hi quick question, ive got a mac, and wondering if its possible to run this through wine? Ive played the beginning of this games like 10 times but never ben able to finish it, any thoughts?

k, I’m totally f’ing lost… can someone please tell me specifics of how to mod a 360 save? I’ve been trying, but I’m not that technologically inclined… :p
if anyone can help, email me 2 greedydemon@gmail.com
ive downloaded this editor and willow tree and both added a icon to my desktop. if i click on that or the exe file in the zip file they both crash and i get the microsoft report error window. do some of the files in the zip need to be extracted to some borderlands/etc file i havent seen mentioned anywhere? old man noob @ modding here.
i tried to use this since i had a computer crash and wanted to rebuild my character to where he was but now it won’t let me load the character, do you know how to fix this?
Srsly? PC only. >.> Make a console version pls.
Um, games are made on the PC. That is why consoles will always suck a$$ compared to the PC. Notice how they don’t include a keyboard with your console? Reason: consoles = the suck.
How do I use it? Whenever I edit my weapons, they don’t appear, and if I have it as my only weapon I have no weps.
To the people who want a console version, I’m pretty sure it’s harder to do it for consoles, grow up and become a real Gamer
hey..does this work on windows 7?
