This editor is no longer being updated and does not support newer Borderlands patches.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.

I was wondering if you could link me to a partial or complete Weapons and Item list guide. You said earlier there is such lists, but i have been unlucky and found none. Thanks, and i to vote for the dropdown list, pictures could be nice too, but that might not be possible. Good job on this editor thus far.
the editor is awesome
Thank you, man. This helps me alot
Scribs: Thanks for the details mate! If you find any other flavors, please share them as well! 🙂 Maybe I can tweak that rifle into a cannon! 🙂
“I was wondering if you could link me to a partial or complete Weapons and Item list guide.”
I’d like that too, I’ve made some nice looking revolvers for myself, but their stats are kinda lacking. Just wondering what I can do to boost them without a hex editor.

I can’t give you the hellfire smg parts, cause I don’t have one yet! I’m playing hunter atm and only paying attention to prime snipers & pistols(and the alien weaponry). This gun is a basic edit: http://i874.photobucket.com/albums/ab304/scribs84/ItemCard00010.jpg
Stock that gun had about 890 DMG! I copied and pasted other parts from a Maliwan 4x corrosion revolver I had, and this is the outcome. TOXIC SHIT. Nice job on the editor Rick, I’m having a lot of fun using it.
what does the quality mean? the color and rarity?
And Hobo, if i wanted to edit your gun you listed the parts for, say make it corrosive is it as easy as changing the word in the sentence Incendiary4_Combustion ? thanks

This is probably one of the best rocket launchers I’ve found, the rockets break into 11 smaller rockets and it’s fire rate is amazing. If anyone has the sniper that shoots 6 bullets or a really nice revolver that are above 40+ would be awesome if you’d post it
what about the item grade for that rocket launcher? did u leave that out?
thnx hoboptimus for the hellfire smg
Nice editor Rick. I have been writing my own but it comes no where near this.
http://img38.imageshack.us/img38/6466/bordered.jpg
Its decent, and its my first jab at file editing. I am interested in any techniques to injecting new data into these files.
At this time I just have an offset and I copy the contents of the file afterwards into a Cstring, inject the new block of data with fwrite, then fwrite the Cstring on the end and repeat for every other new block. It works fine but I am sure there is a better way of injecting data into a file stream.
Anyway, thanks for the great app.
Anyone got a good high accuracy/damage sniper and/or a high damage 6 shot scoped revolver?
Sorry, Item grade for the launcher:

So Rick…still working on this? Love to hear an update. No rush progress wise, ever. Just curious as to what you’re working on.
Hey has anyone found a way to fix 5 or 6 weapon slot problem?Does anyone know how to create a character that has finished playthru 2?Or can anyone Post their save of any character that has finished playthru 2 and now the enemies are all 48-50?So i can remake my Roland with 4 weapon slots :D.
Also here is my Pestilient Equlizer Revolver (Always Corrosive Damage and Unlimited Ammo ) Its Awesome 😀 Also if anyone knows how to add the Masher to this thing please tell me so i can have a shotgun acid weapon with unlimited ammo 😀

Well I made a Twisted Bitch x4 Fire Smg. I think it was like 200 some x3, but I lost it with the save file and I cant get anywhere close to it because I cant change the Level Requirement.
scar3crow: (And anyone else) If you set your level without changing your experience, you’re gonna be boned because you’re at “negative” experience for your level. Look at your character info, it will say something like 1000/200,000 for your level progress. The bar is from 175k-200k (lvl 14-lvl15), and you have 1000 – so until you earn 175k XP nothing will show up there.
See how much you need for 16 (that second number), go back into the editor, set your level to 1 and your XP to something a bit less than what you need. When you reload you’ll level a bunch of times, get the correct number of skillpoints, and your level bar will show your progress towards 16 again.
Has anyone found a way to dump all possible prefixes? I’ve been playing around with my guns but I’d love to mod an editor to include all the possiblities.
If you get one of those screwy guns that shoots bullets in a spiral, take the _Twisted suffix off the barrel.
As a further aside, adding elemental damage to a weapon generally reduces it’s damage, but if you use the special elemental accessory from a red flavor text (Give Sick uses gd_weap_revolver_pistol.acc.acc3_Maliwan_Defiler_Corrosive, for example) it keeps the damage AND gives you a elemental damage and generally a special animation. Pele Demands Sacrifice is a fun one as well – incindiary sniper, no damage reduction, and it pops mushroom clouds wherever it hits. FUN!
Material 5 isn’t always better than Material 1 – I’m working on documenting what the different part names do exactly, but try lowering the number to get better results. Sometimes an over-powered scope reduces damage too much.
You get much better ROF by changing your sniper weapon to semiauto in the weapon type.
I keep getting an error about a > 1mb string in my main save. =(
Anyone know what the masher title is for the revolver? Also, like Harik stated above, it would be nice to know as many special elemental accessory strings as possible.
Great program!
Love this editor, saved me from having to redo my char when I lost it one night. Wish I could have gotten back some of my weapons. Nothing spectacular but I did find them 🙂
Would love to see a weapons editor as the hellfire up there was fun to play with on a hack char I made to mess around with.
Also any update on what you will be added to your next version?
skidz – My code doesn’t do any injecting, it completely breaks down the save into memory when loading and rebuilds the save file when saving.
XWolf – Haven’t been able to work on much, my LCD monitor died on me yesterday so I’m stuck with a shitty old CRT that’s limited to 1024×768.
negativeone – Please upload and post your save so I can take a look.
Tatersalad – Bugfixes and PS3 (and 360?) support, some additional fields are editable (like weapon slots).
Hi, i seem to have a problem with the weapon proficiencies, after i’ve edited them, they seem to not level up afterwards in-game.
Are you going to add combo boxes for the weapon slots so we can easily edit weapons?
“I’m stuck with a shitty old CRT that’s limited to 1024×768”
That’s a disturbing thought trying to code on that monitor… When did you start coding this program? I’m impressed with your speed; you must’ve been quite motivated. I can never get motivated after an 8hr work day to code anything 🙁
Hi, I was wondering how do you edit weapon proficiency with this program, is it even possible?
Nevermind, I figured it out =)

I posted the above at noon today, still says my post is awaiting moderation. So I figured I would try again.
Don’t you think a readme file would help a little? I can’t figure out a lot of this stuff. It’s an awesome program (considering I just had to wipe my hd and reinstall everything and now have to replay) but it can be overwhelming. How am I suppose to know what to do here?
Thanks
gir489 – Eventually I hope to have a decent weapon editor, yes.
Adam – A day or two, the hard part was working out the format of the entire save file.
Forty – It’s under the Skills tab.
Hey Rick, do you have a PS3 save file to examine, because I can upload one of mine.
Yeah, I’ve already fixed the editor for PS3 support, I just havn’t put out the new version yet.
Cool, can’t wait to see the next release!
For information Masher Revolvers are the ones that shoot 7 bullets at the same time aka Showgun revolver.And right now ppl arent creting new weapons etc Every one of the created guns can be found in chest or droped from a enemy.
Also can someone please upload their pc Save that has finished playthru 2?
yo so i met a guy in-game on-line using this messing round spewing these insane guns all over the map… whats the chances of being banned/some kind of actions taken. cuz i’d love to use this its jus… dont wana find my game no longer works online etc.
btw its awesome!!!:D good work brus..
Wow. Gotta give you credit Rick. I’d take the week off from this and buy a new monitor first.
Anyways, thanks a lot for the update. Looking forward to the next release. 8)
Anyone know of any good shields I can put into the XML file? Possibly ones that heal? My character has diesel guns, but he goes down pretty easily lol :\
The interesting part is to create perfect “legit” guns. That the game would also generate and you could find if you were incredibly lucky.
It is kinda dull to create a weapon with 3-5 legendary parts.
Finding the parts that interact within the game mechanics, thats where the fun is at.
Can anyone give me a good shotguns data
im wondering in the weapon edit part..
what changes what
can someone please tell me
When will the new version be released?
Hoboptimus, what’s the clip size of that SMG?
