I downloaded the editor the other day and am yet to get it to work. I am trying to load my characters through the usb option from my 360. I am brand new to all of this and haven no idea what I am doing wrong but I cannot get it to work. Can someone give me some very specific instructions on what to do please?

Edit: or would the dlc check kick in? i'm on Ps3

You need to wait for the editor to be updated since a new update came out with the dlc.

Just adding the item to access the new area wouldn't work because you'd be missing the actual dlc files, maybe with a modded console, but not on retail.

Actually as long as you have the compatibility pack which I'm pretty sure is required to play online, you are able to get the DLC items.

Yes, you can get all of the DLC items but you can't actually get into the DLC itself (even if you have the key items required). I haven't been able to find a way, at least.

Another problem I have been facing. I put 40pts into vitality (health) . When I load the mod on my xbox it shows 40. In the start the life bar is huge. But when I equip the life ring+2 it says my stat is 40. But my life bar is as small as when we make a new character. This also happens without the life ring on. After a while the huge life bar becomes tiny. And I should have about 2000hp or more. But its only 980 hp. Please help.

It's ~100MB, probably so players can be invaded by people with the dlc items, not unlike fable 2.

Hey Jappi. Could you fix the editor where it literally only adds one of a item. For example items that you uncheck in the items database that you don't want to have more than one of ex.) white soap stone, etc... Because when you click add all items it does what it suppose to do and adds only one of those items but then you click add all items again and it re adds all the items you have it set to only have one of. So if you hit the add all items multiply times you will have the items you can only have one of get added each time you hit the button. So if you tried to add x9999 items in your item box you will have numerous copies of the items that you can only have one of there as well. So in truth it doesn't fully prevent you from getting more than one of those items if that make sense.

the "CanHaveMoreThenOne" propertie is ment only for items that u can multiply the ammount without adding the same item over again.
Unchecking that propertie will take out the effect, and adds the item as new instance without increasing the ammount value.

i can do one thing though, i can make it ask for overwrite over whatever when the item already exist, then you can choose wether you want it added or not.

It is mainly for the stuff like white soap stone and other items that game only let's you have one of. The editor just adds a stack of one of the onlyhaveoneof items each time you click add all items. I mean it's not a big issue but for some reason the editor starts to lag out when I start deleting the duplicates.

So I used the save editor today & now I'm getting the message Failed to save game Returning to title menu. I added some tseldora pieces.
I even tried adding the pieces using hxd then using Idles checksum fixer. Also is there a better program for rehash/resigning than Horizon because after this update I am getting an error.

I made backups so it's not a big issue.

The editor does it for you but I use modio to rehash and save other peoples saves.
Also try using the STFS fixer to fix the save issue

I've been having issues with the STFS fixer as well. I added DLC items, after which my save was corrupted & would not load. STFS Fixer resolved the problem & I could load successfully, items were there, however I would get 'Failed to Save Game' & get booted to the main menu. I tried STFS fixing again & now I get an error in the editor. I'm going to try from square one with a brand new character & see if it was just the way I did things.

In the event that I can't sort this out, would anyone be kind enough to create a save from the beginning with just the DLC weapons & armor in the inventory? If it's not too much trouble it would be greatly appreciated. Either that or I'll patiently wait for the editor to be updated & hope that bypasses all of my problems.

Guessing STFS post patch is the real problem then?

My saves have not been corrupted on the PS3 even with DLC items manually added in. One of the big issues dealing with PS3 save files is that they are all sourced from someone. I've heard a lot of people having issues with megamule but I don't use it personally so I can't confirm that. I use SourceKnight's saves as a base and have not had any problems.

Hello, I just discovered your editor. It looks fantastic. I hope it will soon work again. Ine question, is it risky to move my save from xbox to a USB to edit or should I just start a new character and play offline? The idea if I use the editor is to access the NG+(+) stuff and not to edit my stats. I would still get banned right? I paid for the game and the dlc and I love it but as I can't find summons to help get through NG+(+) hence I would like to be a bit lazy.

Wait, I'm confused. Does the editor somewhat work now? Because people are talking about adding DLC items (of which I'm not really concerned, as I have the DLC and most of the new items already), but when I go in the editor I don't see any of them. I redownloaded it, too. All I want to do is add some souls, but I'm afraid that if I do, even if the save does load and function properly, that I'll lose my DLC items.

Always make a backup. You don't even have to use the editor to do it. Just make a duplicate copy of your game save somewhere on your desktop to be save and then play with your save as much as you like. Also many of us are adding in the DLC manually with a hex editor but you can also add items to the database

I will, I was just confused about the DLC situation. I'll test things out and see what happens.

But to be safe, should I be adding in items to the database so I don't lose them? If so, how?

EDIT: All right, tested it, and indeed my DLC items were lost. On top of that, it still had the "Failed to save" issue for whenever it tried to save. So I'll put my backup in and just keep waiting.

Dont worry about the dlc items, i have updated my db with every new items...even the unused ones.

I did some test on the ps3 version of the game using the updated tool and all dlc items...everything worked great and there where no conflicts at all...

The xbox360 failed to save isseu comes from the Stfs file and hard to pinpoint...im working on remaking the stfs lib , but that may take a while to finish.

So the last few times I've tried to use the SE, it just messed up the save. (I'm on PS3 btw) I would just open it and after closing it, it would be completely unusable. I couldn't even open it in the SE anymore. It did that 5 times in a row...

I'm not really sure what's up with that but there's another issue. The "news" or whatever that shows up in-game when you load up your game now says that save files that are not aligned with version 1.06 will be automatically deleted. I guess this is their way to combat mules and Save Editors because on the PS3 platform, you have to get a mule from when the game first came out, edit it how you want, plug it in and the save would be updated once uploaded. It's not doing that anymore and those files are way before version 1.06 so we have no way to get files anymore without jail breaking. What are we going to do now??

Hi admire the work uve made jappi awesome. Works with dlc aswell confirmed by myself at least. But one thing i use horizon to transfer save rehash etc and the thing is the original save the game makea is 15mb, but after i save the file on the usb again after modding its only 8mb. Now the aave works really well but at times right after adding items the game will say failed to save and puts me back on title screen. Is there an explanation to this maybe? Or am i doing something wrong? But all in all great work m8, saved me alotta time, specially with family and all. Dlc compatible asqell btw ;)

Found a strange thing

When extracting the X360 save with Xtaf and do the editing from HDD instead of directly from USB the failed to save error does not occur.
One thing tho, when trying to inject the save back into USB it gives a "file already exist" even when deleted.
So delete the folder and add 465307E4->00000001 and inject the file

Maybe something to look into Jappi?

Works fine for me.....but:

How to fix Corrupt Xbox 360 Saves!
Here is a tutorial on how to restore your corrupted save (possibly might not work in all cases).

I only know this process for Xbox 360, If anyone has a suggestion for PS3 or PC other than back-ups be sure to let me know and I’ll update the post with that info.

Things you’ll need:

* Flash Drive/USB Stick with at least 1gb of space
* A Computer
* Horizon https://www.horizonmb.com/download

The Process:

1. Plug your Flash Drive/USB Stick with at least 1gb of space into your Xbox and navigate to System Settings > Storage > Your Flash Drive. Then format it for Xbox 360 storage.

2. Next MOVE your save onto the flash drive and then plug it into your computer.

3. Install Horizon

4. Once Installed and launched your screen will look like this:
http://imgur.com/jp8LcCv
5. Next click on Games then Dark Souls II. You should then see this:
http://imgur.com/XXjKGj8


6. Drag SAVE DATA onto your desktop (This is your Back-Up save incase anything goes wrong), Then delete the save in Horizon by right-clicking and selecting Delete
7. Go back to your Xbox with the Flash Drive and create a new save of Dark Souls 2 and then create as many new characters that you had on your backup that you want to keep (this character needs only to start the game nothing else)
8. Back to the Computer, navigate the same path as before but instead of dragging it to the desktop double-click on it and a window will pop up in the center like this and move this window to the right:
http://imgur.com/Nk3V8Au
9. Click on Contents if any of the of USER_DATA01 to USER_DATA0a files have way less than 108.70 KB in the size column then that character can not be saved
10. Now drag the file from the desktop into Horizon then move that window to the left:
http://imgur.com/fCIUGW9
11. Click on “Contents” of the backup and you will see a list of USER_DATA files (Your save depending on the slot will be one of these)
12. If the save you want to recover is in Slot One (as in the first save when you select Continue) you need to right-click and extract USER_DATA01 and USER_DATA0b to somewhere you can remember. Do this for any other characters you may want to keep going up a number and letter for each character.
a. USER_DATA02 and USER_DATA0c for Slot Two and so on
13. Click on “Contents” of the Double-clicked save and you will see a list of USER_DATA files. You need to replace the files of the Double-clicked save with the Back-Up save files.
14. For Slot One right-click on USER_DATA01 and replace it with the one from the back up. Do the same with the USER_DATA0b file and any other files you may have extracted.
15. Once finished click on Save, Rehash, and Resign of the Double-clicked save
16. Unplug your Flash Drive, and plug it into the Xbox load up Dark Souls 2 select the flash drive then the slot you want to load. Don’t worry that it shows no name and a Level 1 character once loaded, if it worked those things will reappear.

Confirmed using horizon to transfer works! Everything works online and all is heaven. Note that i used a save before starting the dlc. When i loaded the new moded save i recieved the dragon talon so i can start the dlc. (I bought the dlc - not added via SE). Also u will get the cant save msg once but after that all is well. I trnsfered the save on the xbox hdd now and all is perfect. Thanks all and ofc great work jappi

Also just make sure horizon transfers the file as 14.something megs so it would stae 15megs save file in the dashboard then ur set. Reason for this, i think, is that the oficial save is 15megs ;)

Sadly, if you edit the file at all at this point you'll lose any dlc items you have, so be wary of that.

The editor wouldn't save the database after entering the codes but you can hex edit your save and the dlc items into the save using their hex id. There is a whole other thread talking about this.

Well I managed to find this http://www.360haven.com/forums/threads/37835-Dark-Souls-2-DLC-Hex-Codes/page10

But it's three days old and nothing definite was gathered in terms of whether or not we can access the DLC through hexing.

Are there any other threads that figure it out that you know of or no? Is it absolutely not possible?

You can only play the DLC if you have bought it. But you can hex edit the items in or get summon to someone's world and play it that way.

So even if you downloaded someones save you still wouldn't be able to use it to play the DLC? Interesting, thank you.

I'm not sure about xbox, but in PS3 the very game update itself is the DLC data.
meaning everyone has the DLC data downloaded and ready but those who buy it get the key needed to open the way to the new area.
so it shouldn't matter how you get the key. though whether the key itself is like DLC weapons and has separate item data or not, I don't know.

Having a TON of problems. First, when ever I try to save I get an error can not save slots or something. Second, even after completely removing all dark souls 2 content from my USB I can't even make it one step after I make my character due to an error messages telling me it can't save the game and boots me to the title screen. Maybe you can provide some answers or what not.

I'm having the same problem kinda, it lets me create new characters but i get maybe to the character creation screen before it says failed to save and kicks me out of the game. Its kinda frustrating but i'm sure someone here knows how to fix this problem. at least i hope so

Ok so I'm really confused by what's going on because it really doesn't seem to be an issue with the editor. Let me explain, when I first used the editor, all I had was a PS3 save that had one slot. I used a simple method copy and pasted that slot over the others so I could get all 10 and edit them as well. It worked perfectly and right around when the DLC came out, I wanted to create another 10 slot save to prepare. But using the same method didn't work. I can open 1 slot in the SE and edit it like usual but as soon as I try to copy and paste like before, it corrupts. The SE won't read it and neither will the game. I don't get it, I didn't change how I did anything at all, what's so different that I can't copy one save over another regardless of me using the SE??

This is correct, you cannot access the DLC just by downloading someone's save as Redemption has already pointed out. We've tested it pretty thoroughly on that front and it does check to see whether you have bought it, not just for the items themselves. The only thing that hasn't been tried, to my knowledge, is setting the last bonfire to the DLC content and then warping in however the PC version has a periodic check and I can only imagine the console version doing the same

That is correct, on console you can NOT access the DLC unless its purchased on the console even if your save was previously IN the DLC, it will not allow you to start that character at all until the DLC is active again.
Source is personal usage a my roommate has DLC and I license transferred it after downloading patch so it didn't fully download the license, so I can't load up DLC on any character without her account signed in.

Ok, never mind. It's the SE lol you can't edit a save that has more than two slots. It's doing something weird where it's opening the 3rd slot and breaking it in some weird way, even if you don't have 3 saves. So that's why I couldn't copy and paste over it like usual. It corrupted the third slot so I can't use anymore that 2 characters at all. I worked my way around it though haha if you want to know how to still be able to edit more than 2 slots without it corrupting, just PM me. It'll take a bit of typing and I don't feel like putting it in here, making this comment 10x longer than it already is.

By the way, I'm on PS3 so I don't know if I can be too much help to all you 360 users.

There are no items missing...the items you guys think are missing are placed inside the trashcan , because they did not appear during testing...
You can move them out of the trashcan and start adding them whenever you like. (At your own risk offcource).

On the side note : Im working on the errors you guys are having, The stfs manager is new, and bugs where aspected.
Sending me saves when error accur would help me fix the issues.

Other mods will be added when the tool is stable enough.

error number 1. index was out of bounds

error number 2. could not access file as file is in use

error number 3. when loaded game it said something about being unable to calibrate even though i could see that it was calibrating and it said it was putting me in offline mode.

i have updated the save editor and these problems are still happening. i would appreciate a fix soon,

Yeah jappi, I can confirm that the editor is messing up when it saves. Everytime I open a file to edit it, I can never reopen it in the editor. If I want to use the slot I edited, I have to extract it out of the file and paste it into a file that has never been opened by the editor. So basically I have to start from scratch each time I want to edit a save. It's odd. It still works this way but it will corrupt whatever file I'm editing for some weird reason. The one slot that I edit is fine, I can copy it over all 10 slots in another save and use it that way.

HERE IS WHAT I DID STEP BY STEP!!

At first the save loads great in the editor!! (shows all my 6 characters)
Then i for example add 999 Divine Blessings to one of my characters a very minimal thing to change (I only edited that)
Save all the changes!! Says the changes have been made correctly
I then transfer the safe to my USB using Horizon.
Inster The Usb to the xbox and start the game
I start Dark Souls 2 and says the save cannot be loaded retry?
I remove the usb from the xbox and inster it back to the laptop
Open horizon and move the save to my desktop
Open the program and Load my save.
It says STFS: Reference to illegal block number and thats all it does not show anything nor my 6 characters

Oh and one more thing, for all of the people who don't have the DLC that try to add the key, it From Software has made it to where you cannot play the game when you have the Key without the DLC purchased. I tried today to test it and that's what happened, I only tried because I am getting the DLC tomorrow morning and wanted to see if it would work.

it seems like you can't select the amount of DLC usable items, all of them are set to be like "Aged Feather", in which only one can exist in inventory.

Go to the database and scroll to where you see the DLC consumables. Click on them and on the right side you'll see it's information. Click the box next to "CanHaveMoreThanOne" and then save. There ya go.

Oh yeah and guys, just be patient. Jappi is working hard on the editor. Don't get mad if you lose your save file, you are the one who decided to risk it by using a BETA save editor. Oh and you're a dumb ass for not making a backup.

most of us do make back ups i mean how can you not? it asks you to make one! except even if you do make a back up ya cant fix the save because the editor had problems even loading in the backup or even saving it so its nobodys fault, and yeah most of us do make risks to use the beta because jappi is someone who we all can rely on to fix the editor, hes good at what he does.

Hey guys, I'm aware of the downloadlink being down...in fact, im the one who removed it..
Version 1.0.1.5 is broken, it will do more harm then good.
The errors caused by it are fixed in the meantime, and a few other things have changed...
i think you guys going to like the next update.

Anyway, before i release the next version, i need to do as much tests as possible, to ensure stability.
So i'm asking you guys yet again to post as much saves as possible, because it always works on my side, and yet there are always people with errors...
If you guys can post you working saves, then it will definitly work on your side after editing.

I lost my saves today. :( I only want to play offline because the random invasions are horse sh***t

I downloaded the new version with excitement that it was finally here. This release is worse than the last... I get the message of "corrupt save, no to re-check, or yes to re-do/initialize save. If I load the program and I select to replace the save, it messes it all up.
Even the (warning) backup saves the program makes are defective!!!! and cant be re-loaded. "STFS reference to illegal block number" is what I get after doing anything with this program.

I have resorted to an earlier save with a different editor... To which I donated to because it worked!

Save editors are free, I've never seen one where you have to pay before you get it. So don't being that BS "To which I donated to because it worked!".
I sure Jappi tries their best to make this work, but maybe they got shit to do in real life. So back off, shut up, and it'll all be worked out.

freezing at loading screen mostly indicates something that should not be there...
did you updated your database ? and did you also add all dlc items ?
Did you add items from the ignored area(trash can)?
Do you have unknown items in your inventory?
try removing every item, and keep adding until it freezes.

Let me know if you find anything out, i'm unable to play the game atm....

The only thing I brought out of my trashcan was the estus flask. I did it on 1.0.1.2 so I could have 9999 estus flasks and never have had this problem. I added everything like I normally did.
--- I did check the can have more than one of feature for the dlc items.(NEW)

-x99 inventory consumables (+dlc)(inv.)
-x9999 inv. Cons. Items (+dlc)(item box)
-x1 all apparel,+10 (item box) (+ dlc)
-x3 all rings (item box) (+dlc)
-x9999 arrows (inv.)
-x3 all weapons , +10. (+dlc) (item box)
-x4 all spells (+dlc) (inv.)
-x2 all bows ,+10 (+dlc) (item box)
- all key items, without odd ember. (+dlc)

I pretty much made a mega mule inventory save for xbox.
Only thing I changed was maxed out the covenants and torch time.
I then use the tool feature to add the Inventory I just created to the other 8 characters as well as the build to the 8.
This save contains 9 characters before character creation. They are meant to be my base file characters so I can start a new game and create my character and play with only a modded inventory.
I have done this countless times on 1.0.1.2. And this was the save I used to fix a good many people corrupted saves to.

Okay Jappi. I was able to narrow it down some to what is possibly causing the freezing.
Whats not causing the freezing:
--The consumables Items i put in my invemtory as x99 and item box consumables at x9999
--The estus flask i dragged out of the trash.
--Having x99 and x9999 of dlc consumables.
--Gestures
--Covenants max out
--torch time max
These is what i individually tested together without any weapons, rings, etc... they worked right when i loaded up.

When i added everything else like weapons, bows, spells, keys, apparel. It started to freeze.

Here is the inevtory file if you want to check it out.

The program said it was making a backup for me, which is also corrupt now. Other programs will not even recognize the save now.

Even if I start a new game and put the usb of the save into the computer. As soon as I hit save, it corrupts the file, and now I can't even "replace" the save with a working one because that option now corrupts the file as well. Oh well, Modio works at least.... simple, but it works.

If you only add 99 of items in your Inventory and 99 in your item box your game is infinitely less likely to freeze and you won't have the chance of getting "soft-banned".

Don't add more of certain files like Estus Flasks than the game would regularly allow.

Don't add a ton of things at once. If you just change the numbers of the item to 99 and a couple items it's safer than adding everything at once.

Don't delete too many things at once.

Don't add special items like soapstones, ashen mist heart, kings ring, etc.

Load your save offline after every modification, travel somewhere and save/quit before you connect online fixes some issues as well.

IF YOU FOLLOW THOSE GUIDELINES.... You're save is a lot more likely to work and you are infinitely less likely to get banned.


Jappi, one suggestion for future updates..... Allow the loading of just USER_DATA files. I've found when you edit them and reinsert into the save you face a lot fewer issues. I was doing that with the latest FROM patch, I'd modify and old save then extract the USER_DATA and inject into my current save. It gets around STFS issues and is more likely to work online after patches. Also add an option to not add more than 99 of items (except arrows of course) as this will almost completely people from getting banned.

Thanks as always for the awesome work.

I have challenged and done all of that since day 1 of the editor and I haven't been banned. And I was and been able to do all that on 1.0.1.2. It's just now on 1.0.1.6 the dlc items are messing it up. And I am close to finding what is causing it.

99 of every item in inventory and box
2 of every weapon/armor to the max
all covenant to the max
souls, stats, etc
All work perfect on ps3 :038:

Not true, it's how you play that determines if you'll get banned. If you're a SL 838 invading with 100K SM, then you'll get banned. Items don't do anything. My saves have 65K of each consumable in the item box, like c'mon.

That's what I am saying. I have been using this editor since day 1 and I pretty learned every way the editor can be used to break every things in th3 gane like weapons to give them boost they shouldn't have and etc... only the dumba$$es get banned because they aren't smart.

I'm going off emails written directly from FROM software that mention having more than the legit max if the item, there are several of these emails to be found.

You're right about playing at max level with almost no SM though, it can lead to a ban.

We aren't trying to bash you or anything haha we are just going off of experience. I have been making saves for people with item counts above normal and I have been doing since the first actually way to mod dark souls 2 came out. Most of that is scares to try and stop you. Just play smart and your fine.

There are people who've been playing burnt games on the Xbox 360 for years without a ban and people who've been banned 4-5 times. It's not guaranteed.

These emails weren't sent as a threat, they emailed FROM to see why they got soft-banned and I've seen 3 different emails giving that same response in different wording that it has to do with having items outside the games maximum Parameters.

It's not going to happen to everyone. I've been online with more than 99 of an item, but I dropped the extras and picked them up later just to be safe.

Just because you haven't been banned doesn't mean you can't get banned for it, that is just flawed logic. I know you CAN get banned for it, but I'm not saying everyone will. I'm saying if you want to be safe, it can happen.

I've never seen an email saying that someone got banned for having a max level character with almost no SM, but I'm sure it CAN happen so I'd advise people to avoid that as well. It ruins the game experience anyway.

I've had issues with saves being corrupted and since I followed the things I outlined in my post (including injecting USER_DATA when possible) and haven't had any since. Am I saying you won't have any issues? Nope. Am I saying you will have issues or get banned? Nope. I'm saying these steps worked for me and are a safer way of save editing.

Hey guys I already informed Jappi but just to make sure it isn't just me, I cannot use the Dragon Torso Stone. In the Save Editor it seems to be logged under keys, which is more than likely the problem. So yeah, is it just me?

You sir are correct :) I do know when items arnt in the right spot when added things get screwy and freeze. I am positive this was what was causing my freezing. Jappi was rushing to try and please us and accidently added it to keys. You sir get a like and a thumbs up haha

Not sure if these have been found yet...but I ran into a few little issues when playing around with the editor. I'm unable to pull the saves off of my PS3...so I've been reduced down to downloading blank profile starters lol

1) With a BLANK profile save, if I rebuild it to my profile in Bruteforce, it makes the save load in the editor without any saves. A message comes up saying that I need to have a started save in order to use it...which there is a save on there. However, if I don't rebuild...it works just fine, loads perfectly into the editor, and then works on the console.

2) There's a certain save I have that can't be modified. I can load it into the editor, change as much as I want, and it won't be changed on the console. The editor will show that things have been changed if I reload the save back into the editor...but it will never reflect on the PS3 end. Whether it's items or stats...nothing will be changed and it stays the exact same way it was before I even edited it.

3) I have one save that has 10 characters on it...and when I load the save into the editor only 2 characters get loaded. Haven't really found a way around this...mainly because it doesn't really bother me that much.

Again, sorry if these have already been posted. I'll keep an eye out for any fixes though.

the editor looks for saves based on the time played...every slot with atleast a milisecond played will get loaded...
you can try to load the save first on your ps3, play with every character for atleast a second , then reload back in tool and all slots should be loaded.

if it gets loaded but no changes are made means probebly that your save directory contains filenames that i have not seen yet...

please send me your save directory that does not get modifief after using this tool, i'l check it out and fix the issue.

I am also having an issue with the dragon items. I do not have them in my inventory, but for some reason when I join that covenant and go to get the items, it says my inventory bag is full? Yet I can pic up anything from anywhere else. I have tried discarding items as well and it still says it is full, only for those items?

It goes with the consumables items. Where it has the dragon head stone. And also got rid of it say thing that the dragon torso stone was a dlc item as well.

08-05-2014, 01:14 AM
Just for reference... Dragon talon, dull ember, ashen mist heart, small ladder, and all gestures go in with the keys. Everything else goes in with the inventory (spells, equipment, consumables, king's ring as well). Sometimes having large gaps between inventory sections will cause games to freeze at times (I've noticed the editor does this by design? Accident?). Putting any key items in the inventory will cause bad things to happen. The best inventory solution would be to write all items to inventory in the same group and write keys in another group as I've had problems several times with the large gaps inbetween items.

On the PS3, adding DLC items (keys, dragon talon, whatever) works fine even if you don't have the DLC content. However, you can't use it to access the DLC without paying

Buuut i really dont want to because im in NG++ and almost into NG+++. I'd really like to not lose my progress or my character if anyone can help me that would be sweet.

The editor writes the items just like ingame, or else it would be a total mess...
the gap between some items is intended due the nature of the structure.
there is nothing wrong with items or key/gesture writing.

That happened to me as well. I was playing the game fine for 3 hrs straight, then quit and came back the next day to this error. I was unable to fix the save. Did you make a copy of the say by chance? Luckily I had an earlier backup of the save, but it was approx 6 hrs playtime behind! :( That was all with earlier versions of the editor, this new one seems to work.

Well i have a backup of that save but every time i load it and then quit it does this. Should i maybe try and edit this save with the most current save editor version and save it and see if it fixes itself via that way maybe?

This is what you can try :
extract the corrupted save from your usb to your desktop.
create a new savegame, quit and transfer the new fresh savegame to your desktop.
its better to rename the currupted file first to prevent overwriting the corrupted one with the new savegame.

next load up my tool, and press 'Fix STFS'
Choose the corrupted file in the first box.
choose the new savegame in the second box.
press Start!

When the operation is complete, most if not all gamedata will be transfered from the corrupted file to the new savegame.

it might not work for sure, but its definitly worth trying.

good luck!

Ok i will try that tomorrow thank you for the suggestion! But umm before i do this, do i need to make an exact replica of the save like i have like 5 or 6 different characters do i need to make that many characters for this to work or can i just make one on the new save? if this doesnt work could i just extract the character stats, build, progress, etc. to somewhere and then with a new save replace them on the new character? or would i run into the same issue iim having now? Sorry im not a programming genius so im not sure how all of this works (yet) haha.

Update: so i did this it says it worked successfully i had to eat so i havnt had the chance to load it into my xbox yet but thanks for this i have a good feeling that this worked. Thank you for this suggestion Jappi :D WOOT WOOT!!! It fixed it thank you everyone and anyone that helped me but thank you most of all to Jappi for making this amazing program that has the ability to do a fix like this as well as edit our saves! :D

Everything in the trashcan is not used.
It may cause the console to freeze, or they just dont show up.

All the dlc items with the name "no text" are items are will probebly be added with a later TU, or never...

if you really want to use them , then do that with caution.
