This editor is no longer being updated and does not support newer Borderlands patches. It is highly recommended that you use WillowTree# instead.
Newer build of my Borderlands save editor, fixes the problem with editing Roland (Soldier) saves, as well as several other minor changes and fixes.
If you encounter any problems (crashes, etc), feel free to comment this post.

is there any way to have regenerating grenades? or make a gun shoot them to be picked up
Compared to some of the guns being posted here, grenades suck.
@ Rick
You don’t think that ‘B’ prefix is a UTF16 BYTE-ORDER preamble, and on PS3 non-english locales would be reversed, and all UTF-16 chars also reversed? 😛
@ negativeone
Is your operating system locale not in the UK or US?
In Control Panel, in Region and Language…
What is in the Keyboards and Languages tab, in Change Keyboards (Text Services and Input Languages) menu, under Default input language? (all of them in the drop-down selection, not just the default)
What is in the Administrative tab (may be diff for diff windows versions), under ‘Current language for non-Unicode programs:’ ?
@lowstrife
I know they do but i like to use them to grenade jump to get out of the map and past barriers.. i had seen som1 post a pic on the gearbox forums they made a shotgun that shot out grenades on the ground and he could just pick them up. kinda lookin for sumptin like that.
@ Rick
nvm, not byte order preamble.. gonna decode it to character value and find what exactly that character is supposed to be…
How exactly do you edit your weapon proficiency

Did you have a parts list for this man? Thanks.
Quoted… I still want to see parts list on this!
Updates and junk… Revision 14, with patchedness and other goodies.

@ juan lopez,
the weapon proficiency is in the skills tab, somnewhere near the top.
If you want maxed proficiency, enter lv 50, and 200 000 xp and your bar will e full and not able to rise more =)
@Rick or JackQW
Are we allowed to export SVN Trunk?
It needs a password when i try, i guess it’s just for looksies?
@ Trish
It asks for a password when you try to checkout?
Be sure to have the address correct: http://svn.gib.me/public/borderlands/trunk/
Requires a user/pass for commit, but public appears to be readable.
er, s/public appears to be readable/checkout appears to be public/
Thanks jack, copy+paste was exactly the same but it worked.
@ Trish
That’s usually how it works when you think something is broken or what not, it only works when someone is standing over you watching you do it pretty much =P annoying isn’t it? Lol!
Thanks a lot Rick!
@JackQW
Can you post a complete changelog for your unofficial release?
So I go to the skills tab, type in level 50 experience 200,000 but what do i put under name and artifact mode?
I was trying this editor out last night.
I took a purple Steel Anarchy and tried to add a few legendary attributes to it, like Hellfire, Savior etc. At first the gun was missing parts due to me substituting certain parts with duplicates of different traits. So I then tried to make a complete gun. I had a few nice results but then after one edit the gun lost its level even though quality was set at 3. After that I couldn’t get the level to come back. Anyone know why that happened and how to fix it? Also during the entire process the gun stayed purple, I’m under the assumption that once enough rare parts are added it should change colors, to orange or pearl. Any help would be appreciated.
Request for Rick: for us non-coders it would be nice if there was some directions as to how to build a gun. I’m also trying to find out the rules that limit what a gun can or can’t have, ie. when you have 2 barrel pieces but no stock you’ll end up with a gun that has no stock etc.
Thank you.
So I still can’t get the level to come back. Currently I have these parts.

you probably have the wrong manufacturer listed.

Pretty much designed this for Brick players. Counts as an explosive weapon for Bricks skills, has infinite ammo, and also has chimera properties so will proc elemental effects.

i keep making weapons but they end up with no level even though i put the quality at 5. what am i doing wrong?
pepperjack some weapons manufacturers are already a high quality so if u have them at 5 it might make them over level 50 which comes up as a blank level…
now for my problem im trying to make a hunter mod with +4 rare item or better if some1 has somethign like +20 team find rare items that would be epic post the code for me if u got it! thanks!
I found this gun today , It is basic and pretty sweet first assault shotgun I have scored since I got the save editor. I am trying to make a high damage shotgun with a high rate of fire, and for the heck of it drop in a 40 round smg mag. I was trying sledges shotty, and various hunter shotties, but then i found THIS, pretty sweet base stats to steal and add to, BUT, something is wrong with the accuracy, UNMODIFIED the accuracy # does not match the spread. I will say again the following PIC and build info is UNMODIFIED.

‘Drop the hammer’ means the the pellets will always shoot in a hammer pattern.
This is like the ‘have a nice day’ text that shoots smiley faces, or the cross one, or the one that shoots a horizontal line.

So anybody get a working gun using these parts????

@shanlan & pepperjack
If the gun loses it’s damage and level, that usually means an incompatible Manufacturer. Try changing it to a compatible manufacturer. Materials are fine but not manufacturer.
Oh, thank you very much. It worked once I tested a few of the manufacturers. Does the manufacturer effect the weapon? Or is it only the manufacturer of the material and the grade of that material?
Material & grade will still give their bonuses, but only the Manufacturer field can break your gun. It only affects the display, as far as I can tell.
In the skills tab (the weapon proficiency tab i’m assuming) It has 4 options…Name, Level, Experience, and Artifact number. What information do I put in those 4 slots to max each weapon proficiency?
I m having an error the applacation failed to intiaze properly click on to terminate the appication.
HOW CAN YOU MAKE GUNS HAVE INFINITE AMMO BECAUSE IVE BEEN TRYING TO DO IT ALL DAY AND I STILL CANT FIND IT SO PLEASE IF ANYONE CAN TELL ME MESSAGE ME PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
DUDE!!! CHILLAX!!!
If you want help you dun have to have everything in caps lol…
Stick this in your barrel slot for inf ammo

I’m accidentally erased my save data so I’m trying to re-create the guns I had before;
Anyway, I’m trying to re-make my Pestilent Defiler Revolver, but I can’t seem to add the accessory.
Another problem is that (without the accessory) the Prefix “Pestilent” doesn’t work.
If anyone could fix my code, it would be greatly appreciated;

is there a way to edit the stats of the starting gun to do like 283289372873 damage?
Why would you do that?
Don’t tell me that you want to speed through the game ‘for the great story’ – it’ll be over soon 😛
Also : no, it aint possible (atleast something GBX did right :P)
Thank god for pages <3
yes its much better now..
Has anybody found a x4 shock elemental besides the orion accessory? I have a nice shotgun that I am using hellfire and defiler corrosive accessories on and want to make a third with shock, or possibly explosive if that’s any easier. I do NOT want to change the material to maliwan, as the shotguns are hyperion and super accurate. If anyone likes, I can post it here. Maybe I’ll add it to the weapon and item database.
For explosive, the best I found to add x4 is the following line and sorry..I don’t like shock so I’ve never looked into it
gd_weap_support_machinegun.acc.acc5_Atlas_Ogre_Explosive
This works on any gun type or grade, I love explosive damage =D
Has anybody heard of Pearl weapons? They come before the gold and orange colored weapons and have high damage and stuff. Some people claim to have them.
Also, has anybody noticed the lime green Claptrap at Fyrestone, hidden in the mountains?
Pearl weapons are generally made by the altas corporation and dont have their own color. The one i have is a dark orange however, and is pretty darn good for a legit item.
does this work on PS3?
i found a machine shotgun! it shoots 1.5 but has 45 ammo
Rev 14 worked perfectly, thanks for restoring my lvl 50 Mord!!! you rock!
1.01 patch was released… those on pirated copies don’t patch yet until a new crack is released..
Here are the Borderlands 1.01 Patch Notes, If you’re using Steam or Direct2Drive you should auto-update soon.

* Clients will no longer lose proficiency progress upon leaving a co-op game
* Item cards now display the intended five lines of detail text
* Lilith’s Phase strike and melee attacks from Phase Walk now function as intended
* Voicechat: users can now control volume and individually mute players
* Fixed a bug that sometimes caused CL4P-TP to stop progressing during the introduction
* Server browser population times have been improved
* Server information should now always display the correct plot mission
* Benchmarking feature now works as intended
* Nvidia 3D Vision visuals now render shadows correctly (requires minimum 195.28 drivers, available from nVidia)
You can’t use patch with a pirate copy anyway.
Your opinion, or did you make the attempt? Guilty, I say!
… You can patch with a pirate copy, if it has the same binary content as a real copy.
Just don’t leave town.
this site would be a whole lot better if it had memberships and PM’s
ether that can happen or ill just make a fourms that has differnt sections for weapons class mods and ect
I will love you forever if you can make a save editor one for PS3 version.
people made a friggin patch that works with PS3
i cant seem to open the file
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=borderlands+1.01+reloaded&aq=f&oq=&aqi=
^_~
I used the first result, and I found a link to hotfile.com, and I am downloading it now. I’ll keep you guys updated 😀
OH btw, in case you did not already click that link, it is a search result for the 1.01 patch that Reloaded released. PATCH YOUR GAMES, PEOPLE! Phase Strike ftw ^_^
@ NEET :
He already did, however it’s a newer revision than 12.
Grab an updated unofficial build here; http://drop.io/borderlands_save_game_editor
Thank you, I apologize not doing a more thorough reading, thought there was only 1 page of comments lol.
Heya! The “New Character” for me isn’t working. It lists all 4 but only Brick is available, the other three are greyed out so I can’t create a new Hunter unless I want the Hunter to start with a shotgun instead of a sniper rifle. 😛
I need an AWSOME ASS sniper for my hunter can some one like tell me how to make one PLZ!!!
Go through the previous pages.
The RELOADED release of the 1.01 patch will work, it includes the update + patch.
I tested it a few hours ago and it worked just fine.
ya, its works 100% cept i had to create a new gamespy id. wouldn’t let me login…
Could anyone with a retail borderlands exe tell me the size of it?
It shouldn’t matter if it’s patched or not.
I have a copy purchased from Steam – 31584 kb
My installer is 3gig but the whole folder is 8gig.
From where i can learn how to make my own weapons? ( Level requirement, Dmg, effect, etc)
P.S. Thanks for the answers if there are any ;P
a tutorial by me is in the working
If you’ve got the editor and 14 pages worth of information and discussion about weapon editing and still can’t figure it out for yourself then there’s nothing we can do to help you.
