Rick's Game Stuff
Games, mods & modding.
-
Found something useful? Like the stuff I've made? Think I'm awesome? Want to support me by giving me money for some reason?
By supporting me you'll ensure that I can continue developing interesting stuff.
AWESOME!!!
Thank You for the great work you are doing. I had no errors opening up my .sav now. 🙂
Still got the problem of going back to 27 slots in backpack after buying new ones. Even with this version. Am i doing something wrong?
The game is probably sanity checking backpack size now.
Ok then, bummer. thanx for the awesome programming tho. only wanted the backpack bigger because i’m a hoarder.. nothing to do then but to sell stuff to get more stuff that u have to sell 🙁
My game says im lvl 150 but under start multiplayer bars it says 50? Did this update incoup sanity chk on lvl now too? Also built new saves an the program now pops up with some code… wtf ive been using this prgm since r113…udated everytime … wat the fuzz is going on?
Awesome program Rick, but one little issue. I can’t create Mechromancer class mods. Not sure what the actual issue is but selecting any of the mechromancer’s class mods results in a red line around the name and nothing else selectable.
See the “Set ID” value? it needs to have a value of 2 for Mechromancer items. Duplicate an existing Mechromancer item and use that as a base for your new item (currently the UI does not let you specify a set ID for new weapons and items).
Theres one thing i’ve noticed so far, not sure if it’s the save editor or what the heck it is. I’ve tried making four weapons; smg, sniper, shotgun and a pistol. Only the shotgun and the sniper appears ingame but they’re gone the next time i load the game.
Help would be greatly appreaciated.
I read this up before, if im not wrong you need to put it in the safe box. I dont know why.
I do..
Seems to work if i put them directly in the backpack actually… lol…
Well for some guns atleast, mostly hyperion guns oddly enough.
Ok… Just tried making a jakobs pistol, nothing fancy, just a regular pistol. And it works fine ingame except for that the body is invisible.
Mine is all guns reload animation is gone
Did you edit it in the bank? When you take it out of the bank the name should get fixed by the game.
it is not even letting me download the file
Also, I just noticed in addition to the not saving the backpack size, it will not allow any extra Skill Points either.
Yeah, noticed that skills points aren’t working either…
While I have not been able to fix the backpack size, I have been able to manually redo my skills now.
Hopefully it is something that may be addressed in the next revision.
Thank You Rick!! 🙂
With the newest revision, 133, I have found that trying to add skill points, or remove them, results in only having one (1) to spend once I get back in game. Regardless of level. But that if I use an older version of Gibbed, 113, which is the last one I had before this, I can edit the skill points as I wish. Hopefully this will help in the debgging of the issue as well as rescue those that are having issues with skill points in the meantime.
Nothing has changed in regards to skill points between revisions 113 and 133.
Another patch today to version 1.2.1…
Imposible to keep the backpack exploit since the game check every time it loads, but still can edit the contents of the backpack and add weapons from the save editor…
It seems that we are going to choose between less than 27 items to keep if we want to pick stuff or buy stuff inside the game.
Works perfectly again. Thanks for the quick fix! 😀
Doesn´t work for me to get the settings like they were -.-
I had a level 50 character and all regions/enemies at level 50 as well as quests level 50, with TVHM activated.
Now, whenever i load my game the regions/enemies aren´t level 50 anymore and they quests aren´t neither. Tried changing playthroughs and other stuff, just like i did after i created my character a few weeks ago, nothing helps.
Help would be much appreciated.
Savegame: http://files.mail.ru/HMHYZN
Greetings,
DK.
I can’t do anything about the game sanity checking save data.
According to your save file all your level 50 regions are for playthrough 0 (the first one) but you’ve set your current playthrough to 1 (the second one).
Thanks for takeing a look at it. I´ve tried many setups so far, changing playthroughs and all kinds of stuff, even the file i backed up from the beginning after i just set everything to 50 after i started to play BL2. Even this save (which worked back then for many many hours, doesn´t work anymore. Guess they added some sanity checking just like Rick mentioned.
Reading of other players having same problem in several forums as well.
hey i have a problem with save edit when i try to get more (general skill point) and i save it and go in game then it not working so i go out and check there all saves are and i have got a save that says save0001.sav and a save that says save0001.sav.bak.. any one that have this problem??. pleas can i get some help?
Hey man, I extract the file from horizon and edit it and than I cannot put the file back onto the USB.
It keeps saying”Invalid signature type detected for the loading package. Halting reading. Please make sure that the file is a valid Xbox 360 xcontent package.
What Can I do?
Hi there!
Can anyone tell me what does it mean the option “Game Stage” in backpack tab when you create a weapon? its the last option from weapon’s field, prefix, title and the last one Game Stage. What it does? i searched all over the net like 2 hours and i couldn’t find….
Thank you.
Hey gib,
very nice tool u created, since borderlands 2 update the skill points setting in your tool doesnt work 🙁 it only shows the normal skill points for your level.
is this possible to fix ???
awesome tool !!!!!
iam very thankful for that !
I am having the same problem but I’m playing on PC using r133. I even earned a skill point with a character I added some points too before the update and it’s point was deleted on reset. But! other then a skill points everything else is FANTASTIC!.
Sorry if I’ve missed something completely obvious, but the readme suggests that the source code is avaialable somewhere but I can’t for the life of me find it. I’ve checked your SVN and Git repos and nada.
Is the source in fact publicly available and if so would you kindly provide a link.
Thanks.

Will you release the source code? Github alike?
Jusupov says:
November 7, 2012 at 9:48 am
Source has been up on http://svn.gib.me/public/borderlands2/trunk/ for months.
Did you even read what Jusupov said?
@Rick,
Not sure if that question was directed at me but if it was – I’ve only just come back to check, I did read Jusupov’s post, and I’ve checked out the code – many thanks for open sourcing it.
Steve
Hello Rick,
First of all, thanks for all the single player modding tools you’ve made over the years. Much appreciated!
I wanted to ask about a minor bug when duplicating saves in Borderlands 2. At character selection the model doesn’t update when switching between the 2 (original and duplicate) saves. I’m guessing saves might be tagged by GUID or something similar, and that’s why the main menu doesn’t recognise the character swap. Technically it does, since you load in to the game with the correct character, but it just doesn’t reload the model on display in the menu for some reason. Rather trivial I know, but I was just wondering if you knew how to correct that with your editor (or any other way).
Thanks in advance.
Have you tried selecting a different save before picking the same save again? That forces it to reload for me, but I will do tests with the GUID thing.
Yes, that’s the only work around I managed to find.
Either way, thanks for looking into it : )
Whenever I’m modding anything (mostly weapons), the Prefix and Title combobox fields don’t display values for selection, they instead require manual entry.
Leave them as None, the game will fix them for you when equipping or unequipping automatically.
Huh, okay, everything seems to work, but I can’t seem to overwrite my save?
It seems to be getting my save file from a place other than “\Borderlands 2\WillowGame\SaveData\[random numbers]”
I literally just deleted the .sav file in there, and it was replaced when I started the game up. This is on PC, not the steam version, so it can’t be cloud syncing. Any ideas?
Sorry, I won’t support pirates.
I keep getting this error when trying to save/open a save file. It will show up in game as corrupt and ask if you want it deleted. I have attempted to copy my own saves, a downloaded save, and a new save, all with the same result.

I don’t know if I am doing something wrong or what is going on. I am on the Steam version for PC, Windows 7. Any thoughts would be much appreciated. I’ve tried the previous build with the same results.
Wow, I have never seen this one before. Are you a government worker?

Hey even Government workers love to play games too I guess!!
Thanks for the giggle!! 🙂
That worked, Thanks Rick. And yeah, Census. Thanks 😀
Hello, (and sorry for my bad English) i have a problem with loading my PS3 Save games
I´ve lost the Bonus Drop Item and want to add them in my Save but every time I try to open it
there is an Error “Failed to Load save: invalid SHA1 hash”
How can I fix it
Pretty much the same thing here.
im not able to load any of my savegames. Newly created one are maked as corrupt files on the ps3.
any ideas?
Hey uh Rick. I’ve been having issues using Horizon transferring over my Mechromancer to Gibbed Borderlands 2 save editor. I’m getting this as a response.

OK
How do I fix this man? Do you know? Please respond to my email.
Also just wanted to post that adding skill points does not work.
Been trying to find way around the ps3 invalid sha1.hash issue but no luck. i was able to re assign a modded ps3 game save to my profile and works perfectly with maxed skill trees, 127 back pack space level 125 siren with about 400000000 health and orange guns and items. there is obviously a way to mod ps3 saves but cant find it. anyone have any ideas how to decrypt savegame.sav so it can be modded and re encrypted for ps3?
There is no public way to decrypt saves, however, people are working on this and we could see something released for PS3 save encryption/decryption around the end of the month.
Excellent! Thanks for the reply Rick. just got to hang in there a little longer
Thanks for this great tool!
One question, is it possible to figure out the autosave location/waypoint where you last ‘ran by’ and the game autosaved?
Following that, is it possible to modify the savegame so you will respawn at that autosave location instead of the fast travel location of that map?
I’m asking because like so many others I experience frequent game freezes and have to replay the ‘fast travel to last autosave location’ part over and over again. Especially inside of buildings where there is one fast travel location at the very beginning and then 4 or 5 autosave locations before you reach the end of the map, it would be awesome if I could modify the savegame so that after a game freeze just past autosave location 4 I can restart the game and continue from there instead of starting over all the way back at the fast travel location….
Thanks!
I’m sure you have been getting a lot of e-mails about this but i need to know a few things.
In the savefile class under the Deserialize function in need to input raw data after the reading of the sha-1 hash and Before the LZO decompression.
I was thinking about making them 2 separate non public functions but this wont work out.
E-mail me when you get a Chance
I’m not entirely sure what you’re asking about here.
Awesome tool. Stick with whats in the selection boxes and everything works great. I have a level 43 commando but wanted to try a Siren at that level. Changed the player type and skins and saved over my old siren save. All weapons, skill points and missions transferred. The only thing that didnt was the class mod. Created the class mod and it started me off with a fresh blank skill tree and 39 points to spend right where I left off with commando. Can’t beat that.
There’s no update? Rev133 was released before the Carnage DLC, i was wondering if there’s some fixes to it.
Is there something broken that he needs to fix?
Rev133 included Torgue DLC stuff mined from the compatibility pack released last week.
Works perfect. Can you add a “quests” section? So I can chose whatever mission I want pls. Thanks
That’s on my TODO list.
Thanks.
Thanks a million for this. 🙂
I do have one question:
Lately I havent been able to add mod skill points, is this a known problem or am I just missing some changes..?
Thanks, C
Game is sanity checking it now.
Ok, thanks 🙂
Is there anything that can be done about that eventually with the next update?
I am not able to create any items from either of the 2 DLC’s in Gibbed.. I just get a red border around the “Balance” drop down and i am not able to edit any of the other fields..
I am on the steam version of the game, but should that matter at all ?
Any way to fix this ?
hey rick, i have 1 question and 1 problem

Yes, it’s called updating to revision 133 (which is the page you just replied to).
how do i update it?
forget it
ok, how about this gear calculator thing with save editor?
What about it?
also, can this support patch 1.2.2?
cannot open my save files in the new save editor, help?
Hey Guys, thanks for the great tool.
As of yesterday though I cannot add skill points pass the max lvl of my charcter
Anyone else have this problem?
Thanks
never mind, just read the ‘sanity” repl….:(
Hey, im really glad that u guys are keeping up the great work and there is only one thing that i am having a problem with. The general and specialist skills dont work for me. when i try alter them the dont appear to have changed in game.
Ok, for those who don’t read…here is a sum up of what people have asked…
-The latest patch is sanity checking backpack size, so that exploit doesn’t really work.
– skill point levels so you can’t have more than 50, that is now being sanity checked.
– “black” guns in backpack are also being checked but banks aren’t so to get around that…Use banks.
– ps3 still doesn’t really work or at least lots of people still don’t know how. (no real idea there…)
-lots of people saying thanks for the work….ditto
Hello
I have strange problem with your editor, from the beginning, editor worked pretty well but now I can’t even start your program because somehow it crashes, even if I have updated my framework.
This is error signature from my windows XP:

Well, you are very talented person and I hope you can help me to solve this problem.

I’m getting a similar error whenever I use the editor; there is a difference in the next-to-last line of the error report. I’ve been using the Save Editor without problems but recently started on the Torgue DLC, which has a new form of currency, the Torgue Tokens.

Ignore my posting. Thought I was on version 133 but was running version 125. I am not seeing a problem with 133.
Hello, does this program let you edit the quest because, cloud sync screw up my save file and i want to go back to my level 29 mission instead of my level 26 is there a way to do so in this program?
Is it possible to complete individual bad ass challenges with this?
Badass rank are saved in profile.bin. This editor (to-date) is not supported that kind of editing. You can go and earn the rank yourself.
can ducanfogg who created the gear calculator mod add a export code for the save editor?
How can i create a legendary weapon? I can’t change the name of the weapon or the comment that those have
No, part name and descriptions are scripted. You are only allowed to construct the gun by combining the parts.
Great work!
Any idea when approximately to expect a release with quest editing stuff? (Santa… cough… cough… cough…)
skill points doesnt work 🙁
great tool !!!!
Hey, just upgraded to Mr. Torgues blah blah and now can’t open the save games.
I get the “An Exception was thrown…”
Picture here : http://imgur.com/rFAD5
I’m assuming it doesn’t support the new stuff in the save file?
Hey,Rick.
I tried to mod my Ps3 savegame several times,but it didn’t work…..
I always got “invalid SHA1 hash”.After that,i tried to download a PC savegame from a website and opened it with the editor.I changed the Save Slot number and the endian and saved it into my original savegame on my USB flashdrive.But when i connect it to my Ps3,there is only my old savegame,it did not change anything.So,is there any way I could send u my savegame,so u could mod it?
hey rick.
They released the encrytion code for ps3 game saves.
Any idea you could use it.
Link below contains the codes.
http://www.thetechgame.com/Forums/t=4395828/update-borderlands-2-mod-tool-update.html
That has nothing to do with PS3 saves.
Out of curiosity, is there any chance that this could come to OS X? Or at least be compiled on it?
Just wondering.
Hey Rick.
How’s the progess in modding ps3 saves?
Is it close to success?
Hey, I reposting the error message because is very important for me, can you help me?
It worked when I downloaded it but a few days ago editor crashes at launch. I have Windows XP with SP3 with Framework 4.0.
