Hello everyone! I am wanting to start moddifying my BL2 games saves, has anyone figured out any strings of code in hex editor for weapons, sheilds, money, anything? Naturally when I load up my game save into hex editor I can find some words or code that relate to something I want to mod. Just glancing through a few game saves I dont see anything. Is there a program or something that can translate the code in hex editor so that its English? lol. Maybe I am doing the process wrong or may have to do something to the save before I load it into Hex editor. Any advice or help would be great. I did download the resign and hash programs posted in other threads but Im unsure of the process to use them. Im assuming I rehash and import the save once I make changes but who knows. I know it's a lot to throw out here but I thank you all for the help.

You have to decompress the save before you can hex edit it.

How do I decompress it? What program? I have unzipped the ones I have downloaded but my game save is not compressed.

I had no luck even after decompressing. I will write a quick program to decompress later today, unless someone else does it first.

Hey thanks Seth! I hate to be "that" guy asking. I just read the thread about decompressing so I'm a little behind. If you need anything just ask or send me a private message.

These boards are on fire with Borderlands 2 posts! I'm trying to patiently wait myself. My son and I usually do the first playthrough together without any mods just to beat it and then do the second playthrough with fun mods. I hope it is as fun as the first one. The game and the mods! Thanks to all those who work on this stuff. You guys are quite talented.

Does anyone know if WillowTree will be updated for Borderlands 2?

I do not know if the original creators of WillowTree are planning on developing a version for BL2. I had planned to make a modding program. But, I need to figure out what is what in the Game save first. I have heard rumors of the save being compressed, but I am not sure that is entirely true as you can read some data without decompressing. I am trying to research anything people have learned thus far so I can have a better grasp on the save before diving in. Meanwhile, I am enjoying playing till I decide to start modding. Any information that is discovered would be great if you could pass it my way. Perhaps I should start a thread for WT2 development information...

When I used the new LZO decompress tool, all I did was drop a weapon and compare for the one missing, and it was an almost completely different decompressed file. I did it 3 times to make sure, and it was different every save. I don't think it decompresses very well...

NOW MY QUESTIONS IS:

why there is someone i searched on google from another forum that he actually sell his service for this game ( i think everyone already knows him) and he does mod money, eridium, skills etc with just requesting a save data of your game and a donation and why he can do that and at least us need this compresion??? is really a mistery or he is a master on what is he's or she's doing

I was wondering if it'd be possible to get skill points and Eridium modded into my save? I don't want skill points maxed...I think I have 29 now, and I only want about 39-40 so I still have a reason to level up.

Has anyone figured out increasing inventory space yet or just adding a bunch of guns to it? The only thing that ended up saving BL1 for me was adding more space since as a huge packrat the limits just wouldn't cut it.

iKing
09-27-2012, 07:57 PM
yeah but you need to have your Xbox jtagged or some other way more than hex because they haven't completed the compression tool yet

I have a JTAG. I know in BL1 it was hexing and really easy.

iKing
09-27-2012, 11:43 PM
then it must be more easy to mod eridiums and all stuff with it there is a modding tut for jtaggers

@legitmod, would you be willing to add skill points to my bl2 save? I used to mod my own stuff in bl1 w/ a hex editor but i'm not sure how to edit my bl2 save, keep reading about it being "compressed" - beyond me. thank you for any help.
