  1. Steven says:

    Hey, thanks for the post, it’s a working wonder. Everything is working great for me except one thing: it doesn’t save any of the changes I make in the “Character” tab. Every other change that I make carries over to my game except that. Am I doing something wrong, is the client broken? Please help me out, I’m somewhat new to all of this stuff.

    • Steven says:

      On another note concerning the above post: I simply want to change my lvl 45 psycho into a lvl 45 siren. I want to be able to keep all of my mission progress, weapons, money, etc. Is this possible? I’ve been trying to use the import buttons and everything, but like I’ve said above, none of these changes save over. Thanks in advance for any help.

        Heya Steven,

        I’m sorry to hear that it’s not working for you, as it should normally. Have you tried the following:

        – Extracting the Editor into a separate directory
        – Running it as an Administrator

        If the answer is yes, then you might want to run it as an Administrator and follow these steps:

        1.) Open up Gibbed Save Editor – close the game before
        2.) Click Open and select a Saved Game – example: Save0001.sav
        3.) Customize the loaded Save Game file – in your case, switch from Psycho to Siren*
        4.) Click on Save, then save it as Save0002.sav

        *Okay, first things first, if it didn’t work like that, then proceed through Step 3.) like this:
        – Generate a Random “Save GUID” (General Tab;Uppermost Line)
        – Set “Save Slot” below “Save GUID” to match the name of the number in the Save000X.sav file.
        – So in case this will be your 2nd save, set it to 2, instead of leaving it on 1.
        – Set the Class – for you it’s obviously Psycho now that you want to set to Siren. (Character Tab)
        – Give it a unique name.
        – Proceed through Step 4.)

        I hope I was able to help Steven!

        Best regards,
        Popper

        P.S.#1: I just made it before I wrote this little guide to aid you, so this should be perfectly fine. Also, I followed the steps I wrote down above. If you can’t get it working anyhow, try using an older Gibbed – especially in the case you are not using BL2 1.8.2 unlike me, as for me this function works with this BL2 and Gibbed version combination.
        P.S.#2: Sorry for the messy P.S.#1, sometimes my brain derps and then my English is meh. *sadface*

  2. Row says:

    When i paste a modded weapon onto the save editor it shows up on the save but when i save rehash and redesign put the save back on my xbox its not there πŸ™ can any help me it would be greatly appreciated.

  3. Corey Zawaski says:

    Qorks Awesome but i wish there was a way to change your Health and shield

    • DOMIN8 says:

      There is but, that information isn’t stored in the save files so it can’t be edited by Gibbed. If you are on Xbox or PC you can easily modify your Profile.

  4. Corey Zawaski says:

    and your Badass Rank

  5. thank you says:

    I love you!!!

  6. Lucas says:

    That’s amazing!

    Gibb that’s a great work my friend, BL2 would not be so fun without this mode.

    Can I know if we’ll have the same thing for BL The Pre Sequel ? Would be amazing πŸ™‚

  7. Hi says:

    Not opening with windows 8…help me please

  8. James says:

    I am trying to move super rare weapons from an older save to a newer one because I lost them due to a game crash. But I cant figure out how to transfer them with the editor.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  9. Andrew says:

    When I try to put the extracted game save onto the app it says- Failed to load save: cannot load XBOX 360 CON files, extract using Modio or equivalent
    Please help I have Modio downloaded but I am not understanding what I am supposed to do

  10. David says:

    I want to reset the mission “Safe and Sound” where you must give lewd pics either moxxi or marcus but everytime i reset it. i can only give the pics marcus but i want to give they to moxxi.
    maybe you know about that problem please help. sorry if there where grammaer mistakes.

  11. Row says:

    Anyone miss hybrid weapons? I do… Basically what I want to say is if enough people try maybe we could try and find a way around the sanity check. Like what if Gibbed save editor made an update to where you can put items idk in Marcus’ inventory and change the price of them to whatever you like say 0$ for a modded weapon you put in there just a thought. But if no modders could come together to make such a way around the sanity check then the rest of the borderlands community should come together to FIND away around it. So spread the word to people who still upload Borderlands 2 content about finding or making away around this horrible thing that has happened to Borderlands 2 ! (:

  12. jaideep says:

  15. hiddenghost556 says:

  16. Anthrbadcoolkid says:

    Can someone tell me exactly what I have to do so I can edit my x360 character so I can have fun offline

  17. Jamieprov says:

    Hey, I’m trying to convert ps3 saves to PC saves, but I can’t seem to open them in the Save Editor. I get the error “Failed to load save: invalid SHA1 hash”. Any advice?

  18. dazedandconfuzed says:

    Hey I’m trying to get this new 237 working for my ps3 save but it doesnt seem to carry any weapons and anything in the backpack over to my game. The first revision I have ever had a problem with. Someone please help.

    • DOMIN8 says:

      This version works just fine for PS3 saves. Are you trying to add modded gear?

      • dazedandconfuzed says:

        I just tried adding gear to my character but it disappears as soon as I load up my game after modding it and reloading it on my system.

        • dazedandconfuzed says:

          I noticed it is affected due to the game update cause when it was not updated my gear shows up but when I update it to play the dlcs it empties my backpack/gear completely. Someone please help

          • DOMIN8 says:

            What are you trying to add to your character?

          • dazedandconfuzed says:

            Dom I’m trying to add the infinity gun and tried to level up the current guns I already had in inventory to my current level, not a whole lot that was special and it still erasing all my inventory. Sorry it wouldn’t let me reply to yours so I’m replying under mine again.

          • DOMIN8 says:

            As long as you are using a non-modded item and its under OP8 then there’s no reason it should be getting deleted.

          • dazedandconfuzed says:

            Ok thanks Dom, I’ll give it a try.

  19. hi says:

  22. j03y says:

  23. Giovanny says:

    Everytime I click Download and try to open it after it keeps saying application not found. Plz Help

  24. corrosivefrost says:

    After editing a single PC save and multiple xbox 360 saves and then loading them on PC, all loot drops (guns, grenade mods, shields, class mods, etc.) as well as health drops now have a large black rectangle underneath them.
    The edits done were simply changing the platform from x360 to pc and checking the characters save slot # to make sure none overlapped.
    I’m assuming this was caused by opening and saving from the save editor as prior to this, my PC mechromancer did NOT have this problem…

    Is this a known issue? If so, is there a fix?

    • DOMIN8 says:

      Never had that issue before and I’ve edited thousands of save files across all systems.

      • corrosivefrost says:

        I’ve tried verifying the game cache via the properties for the steam entry as well as deleting and reinstalling the game. When the delete and reinstall didn’t work, I figured it had to have come from the edit of the save files as everything was fine before that.

  25. HoverGamer says:

    I is not possible to mod the inventory size can you fix that in Revisions 238 or 239 ? please

  26. peanutbuttawolf says:

    so everytime ive modded and i load it on my xbox i lose all of my items in my (equipped, inventory, bank) and it wont change the OP level in the game… what am i doing wrong?

    How do i reset badass points?

  29. Jonathan says:

    Hey, I downloaded this file but I can’t seem to get it to open. I have even tried running it as administrator and just won’t open. I’ve tried it with my firewall both enabled and disabled as well. The only thing I can think of is that it is because I have windows 8. Does anyone know if that is why or is it something else?

  30. JackaJacka says:

    .exe works, though I know that need Horizon for this too work. Can anyone supply a correct link (xboxmb.com/horizon doesn’t exist anymore.)

  31. Jason says:

    After I used gib editor my borderlands 2 has been screen tearing a lot especially in combat. I was wondering if there’s any fix for this.

  32. apharris says:

    horizonmb.com jacka works

  33. Joshua says:

    Whenever I start this after I hover my mouse over the tabs the client crashes and I just don’t understand, I really wanna use this tool

  34. Drew442 says:

    I tend to use this tool as a way to archive my purple / legendary weapons. Is it possible to get some kind of decoding key to tell what kind of weapon it is? So I could put the codes in a spreadsheet & see what they are at a glance? Thanks for making this tool, it’s very nice.

  35. atomic says:

    i have the game of the year edition cant edit skill points

    everything else is edited fine but the skill points never sticks

  36. Zomb1eK111er 25 says:

    It keeps saying invalid or unsupported version I have 360 selected in the drop down mean before i open I’v tried re download and nothing works PLEASE HELP!!!!!!

  37. Jeeeean says:

    Hi. Before anything else, thank you so much for continuing to update this. Anyway, I used to play vanilla BL2 about a year ago. I remember using this tool and it works like a charm. Now that I have the GOTY edition, I got this again but I have this problem of needing to completely close my BL2->save the changes on my save->executing my BL2. Is it like that now? I remember that I only need to be in the main menu of BL2->alt tab->use this editor->load my game and see the changes.

  38. ffc Squall says:

    For whatever reason, I can’t put my modded save back into Horizon. I get the error message “object reference not set to an instance of an object” every time I try. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

  39. 2happy says:

    Everything works fine – whith one exeption: I cant level any more, I dont gain any more XP! Means, the XP bar does not fill up, my level is freezed at 10.
    Did I made any mistake, that prevents leveling?

  40. 2happy says:

    it worked, thx ,

  41. NotSoHappy :( says:

    i play on xbox and i use horizon i extract it to a savegame but when i load it in gibbed it says “invalid or unsupported version”and if i try with a save0000 file it says “failed to load save cannot load xbox 360 con files exract using modio or equivalent” and i dont know what that means. pls help

    • ffc Squall says:

      You need to extract the “SaveGame.sav” file. To do this, double-click on your game save in Horizon and click on the “Contents” tab. After that, right-click on the “SaveGame.sav” file and click “Extract.” That file is the one you need to load into the editor.

  42. Meiring says:

    I’m currently playing on PC and I have used this save editor before but I think I deleted it, it was an old version. I just recently downloaded the latest one (Revision 237) and when i extracted it, it doesn’t even let me open the .exe file. I tried running it as the administrator but that didn’t do anything.

    Please Help, Thanks.

  43. Drez says:

    My Golden Keys will not change no matter how many times I try to change them. Is there anything that can be done?

    • DOMIN8 says:

      If you are on Xbox or PC you can use the GPD or Profile editor. Golden Key information isn’t stored in your character saves.

  44. Kevin says:

    I just created a game save, and extracted it with Horizon; and when I try and open the game file in Gibbed it gives me:
    “Failed to load save; invalid or unsupported version”

    I have used Gibbed before (last year) and had no problems, am I doing something wrong?
    I also tried just creating a save and replacing it, with Horizons and still no luck.

  45. Walwin says:

    Hi, it might be stupid, but i seriously don’t find the download link. Could anyone tell me the exact position

  46. Steve says:

    I downloaded an OP8 gunzerker save from Rleeson85, and followed his instructions to a T on using brute force and gibbed editor to create a new gunzerker but it keeps telling me the file is corrupted. His instructions seemed pretty straightforward but maybe im doing something wrong?

  47. zaki says:

    can this program used in windows 8.1?

  48. Taylor says:

    This tool is working so far for me, but with a couple problems. First there is the problem of putting in the program 999 Eridium and in-game ending up with only 500. The second problem I’m seeing is that the General Skill Points don’t seem to be adding to game and the Specialist Skill Points don’t seem to affect anything. Other than that everything else seems fine , this is for Revision 237 7-16-14, and thanks for this tool and for your continuing support and loyalty to gamers around the world.

  49. rqc2 says:

    Hey I’ve noticed there are a couple of uniques that you can’t add in, such as the sandhawk and the cobra. Also, the item list is very cluttered, and it might be better if you could sort it or add in a search bar maybe? Thansk!

  50. undyingnerd says:

    The tool works fine but none of the changes I make carry over at all.
