  2. horog says:

    it still dosent like xbox 360saves

  3. tombestofbest1 says:

    hi rick thanks for the editor works fine can u help me with somet i kno this isnt a problem its more of a favor but could you make a high damidge wepon that has unlimited am like a really high damidge explosive infinity thanks

  4. Adam says:

    I don’t know how to get a save into the actual game, as there is no “Import Save” button. Also, I can’t get my weapon pre fix and name to not have a red box around it. Please help me, I’m new to this!

    • takahash1 says:

      if u r choosing dlc weapon u need to choose the dlc title . u cant use base game n create the weapon .

  5. Oopsie says:

    Once you play the game Sav files are created in your Documents, My Games, then the game name folder.
    Gibb has a common File system you use to open those Sav files.
    If you get a red box for anything click and select another proper option from the list, if there isn’t one select None.

    • takahash1 says:

      just to clarify about the red box . the reason why ppl got a red box is becoz its mostly not from the base game . as someone from youtube explains b4 , u can only mod dlc weapon through dlc itself . which means u need to get the weapon from the dlc n mod it from gib . u cant create or make it into a dlc weapon . like those gemstone or pearlescent weapon . as it hasnt detect the availability of such weapon in ur save yet . for triangle exclamation mark means the part doesnt match . when u want to mod a weapon just choose the proper matching parts . it is very easy to use gib unless u wanna make ur own raw code . which is hard of coz or u can just rip off from the internet ppl provides . as for rick can u pls reply why the bank sometimes reduce in size without me medding around other than modding the weapon itself . i didnt even add weapon or create weapon . was just modding the weapon i got from the game to lvl 72 . was it becoz u need to save outside sanctuary so u will get autosave b4 u get to ur bank ? is it thats how it works ?

  6. Chris says:

    Im using this to mod bl2 saves on the 360 .It will no longer take any updates such as skill and money or anything else .Just wondering if its a bug when using themod tool on 360 or if it needs to be updated .Using the current version

    • takahash1 says:

      patch 1.15 on ver 256 works just fine . its probably the steps that u r going through r wrong . rebuild save , decrypt all files , apply cheat for input sha1 , open save file , choose xbox 360 extension , mod it , save file , apply cheat for input sha1 , encrypt all files , verify pfd , done .

      • chris says:

        That is exactly what I’m doing been using for years now .The update fixed recode error but any mods done to a 360 save will not take anymore . I can make the changes in the tool but when loaded on the 360 in a active game they are not taking .Just to be sure I took the same save out and it wipes the modded save everytime.

        • takahash1 says:

          lolz i guess have to wait for rick to reply for this case which he has not been attending to replies for sometimes . some ppl has been complaining about xbox too .

          • chris says:

            Seems like it’s only on xbox it worked before they put out the last bl2 update then after the mods won’t take .

          • Chris says:

            Just figured it out this morning .The title update needs to be removed then all updates done offline then when ready re download title update and modded save will work.

    • horog says:

      deleted it still did not work

  7. Weeky says:

    Why some weapon i cant get?

    • takahash1 says:

      its all in the editor . try using raw code from the internet ppl provide n copy then paste code into editor then edit all u want from the column provided , search for se7en sins gaming community n blackwidowstang weapon codes .

  8. sweetjones says:

    getting invalid or unsupported version??? when opening in app??? any help??

  9. sweetjones says:

    • keep crying says:

    • takahash1 says:

      keep crying faggot with ur shit loot of weapon

      • rampo says:

        It’s not his/her fault for making the gibbed save editor, it’s the fault of everyone who is using it.

    • xavier says:

      if you don’t like it don’t use it. just grow up and play by yourself you crybaby

  14. Chris says:

    For anyone having issues using gibbed to mod bl2 saves on 360 the new title update and needs to be deleted then mod the save offline .Once you have done whatever you want to it then download title update and modded save will be usable.

  15. Vincent says:

    after im done modding the save, i save it, and when i try to inject it into my bl2 with horizon it says Invalid STFS Package. if you know how to fix it i would like to know.

  16. Graham says:

    All works fine until I click onto the RAW tab and then it crashes my PC, my PC then shuts down and restarts. Am I missing a critical program?
    I have .net frameworks 2.0 sp2, 3.0 sp2, 3.5 and 4.0 (Windows XP SP3).
    Any help appreciated.

    PS the pre-sequel editor does exactly the same so I know its my PC.

  17. takahash1 says:

    rick can u pls reply

  18. b says:

    help cant get it to run

  19. edward says:

    thanks rick for your years of great work, but there seems to be a problem with the paste code for the backpack and bank space. the problem is when i highlighted and right clicked the weapon of my choice. the weapon code will not work, when i want to paste it to my backpack or bank it does not work.

    • takahash1 says:

      highlight the code from the website or whereever u get it . then copy code . it should look like this BL2[xxxxxxxxxxxx] . then click paste code on the gib save editor . there is no need to copy code from the existing backpack or bank . u just right click duplicate if u wanna dupe it . unless u wanna copy code from ur existing bank n show it to ur friend which i dont think its neccessary since urs is not a super weapon . just dupe it n give ur friend if thats the case . note that for xbox there is a certain trick to do it . means to bypass some security reason . read the above post by chris . ps3 n pc have absolutely no error in using it .

  20. luke says:

    my gibbed isn’t starting, I click on it and It dosent do anything. please help

  21. Luke says:

    Hey, I’m having problems importing the missions. No matter what, the characters I create are on the “my first gun” mission as if they’re a new character. Is this a bug? If not, can someone help me with how to do this correctly? Thanks in advance.

    • Joures says:

      THIS! Have tried almost everything, is it even possible to complete missions on all difficulties through Gibbed? Also, the travel station options that are checked does nothing, don’t have any of the ones i’ve checked.

  22. Jackson says:

    Can someone please help, i downloaded the file but have no clue where to put it.
    i have the folder “saveedit_r246” but there is no individual file whereas the only download here is the individual file “saveedit_r256”.

    I am awful at the game normally and I can’t find another solution, thanks.

    • takahash1 says:

      put it anywhere that is convinient for u . then extract it to the folder u want . after that run gib.exe . its that ez .

  23. VaultHunter says:

    Got me a Maliwan sniper from Butt Stallion, it’s an Aquamarine Rakehell w/ Hyperion grip, Jakobs stock & sight + damage accessory. Was trying to modify it up through you editor but i get a warning next to most parts that says “Unsupported value, weapon will probably be deleted.” Can someone tell me if it’s a game bug or am i doing something wrong ?

    • takahash1 says:

      how on earth do u get unsupported value . u r suppose to just choose the appropriate parts next to the right , if there is none means u cant choose it . its usually on the right with a few options to choose . unless u r changing to a dlc weapon n still on a base game . u have to either make a new dlc weapon with dlc stated on top . or u can get the weapon from game then mod it through the backpack or bank . not sure if there is any other way to mod it . u cant choose the accuracy n damage n etc . u can only choose parts . fit the best parts available . like saying a hyperion weapon will get the best effect n stats if equipped with all hyperion parts except for sight n stock which u can choose whatever u want or depending on the bonus u get u want . there is no value or whatsoever . u cant edit the stats itself . its through the parts that u get/gain value .

      • VaultHunter says:

        So to add to my initial post, i continued to farm Butt Stallion and ended up with a couple Aquamarine Sniders (a fire & a corrosive w/ various parts). Tried to edit them through GBSE and they behave exactly as the first one, unallowing modifications since all drop down menus variable is “None” (plus the “Unsupported value, weapon will probably be deleted.” warning box next to them). So there is something messed up about Gemstone Maliwan Snipers ATM, the issue sitting between the editor *or* the game.

        • Rick says:

          It’s an issue with the editor; my code that datamines the game for weapon information isn’t finding the corrected data for Aquamarine Sniders so it doesn’t know what it is.

  24. kyleshing says:

    Why is the Tediore launcher can’t be made. It just disappear.There’s no error in the options and the other weapons are perfectly fine.By the way, I am a Chinese fan of yours, my english is not that good.I just hope that you can give a reply, please?

  25. CovLeader says:

    Thanks a lot man all these save editors are fun and easy to use, please keep going. 🙂

  26. HowAmI says:

    When I press open on the editor it crashes

  27. WaveHog5 says:

    Same here…cannot open .exe without ‘stopped working’ message. Help please.

  28. Ailuros says:

    The import function doesn’t seem to work anymore. I open a save, click one of the import options, then choose a different save of the same type (PC, etc.) to import from, but then nothing changes. It says “Import successful” but nothing in the open file changes. I used these functions once before to import a character I’d beaten the game with into the PC version (Steam sales are awesome). I even used said function a month or two ago before the game update to import another X360 save for a friend.

    Now, however, the import function no longer seems to work.

  29. Grant says:

    I am having problems with the fact that it won’t even open. I used to be able to use it perfectly fine and now i can’t get it to start up.
    any solutions??

  30. Stefano says:

    How do i create dlc itens on gibbebed, casue when i try to create the box highligt on red n the itens don go to my inventory. in borderlands 2 i mean

    • Stefano says:

      i have all dlc’s but i can figure out how i “show” the program i have the dlc’s

      • Rick says:

        You need to create the weapon or item for the DLC you want; next to the regular “New Weapon” or “New Item” is a button with an arrow symbol. Click that to create for a DLC.

  31. Finley says:

    When i try to add skill points to my gunzerker it just dosent add, ive tried multiple times but it just wont work, any way of resolving this?

    • Takahash1 says:

      use raw data to mod it . go to skill data n input every skill by grade 5 . the game has a sanity check to make all the points back to default again . so i guess by adding the grade u will level up the skill automatically . then when u r not convinced that it is actually added on the skill tree u can reset it at the customization npc . then add up again n dont wait for auto save to appear again . it will delete ur points . just go to raw tab skill data click on skill data that u want to mod , the skill should read from right to left then down right to left accordingly , so see which skill u want to mod , at most 5 , so u need to know which one is 1 or 5 , just read it this way right to left then move down right to left repeat same thing , n on the right there is a skill description name .

    • Takahash1 says:

      so sorry . i mean left to right then down left to right repeat .

    • Takahash1 says:

      so sorry . i meant left to right then down left to right repeat same thing .

    I’ve never had this problem before. I’m trying to edit a PS3 save & I’m using Bruteforce v4.7.3. I haven’t checked if it happens with TPS saves too, but still. Any help would be appreciated

    • Steve says:

      Not sure if this is relevant, but I just tried re-downloading 4.7.3 & got this:
