This topic has discussion on how to add most things to your save file manually
wow, many thanks I just finished dark soul and now I want to star over with dark souls 2, this could be useful to speed things a little
Right. So I started modding it and then finished modding. I then went to save but it said "Cannot Replace Slot Info". I then relaunched it and it wouldn't let me load my character back up. Instead, it said "Buffer cannot be null
Parameter Name: Buffer"
What do I do?
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??
Need help stuck on an error after loading game save. error buffer cannot be null parameter name: buffer
Hey, Running into a problem after trying to load save file i get an error saying, Buffer cannot be null.
Parameter name: buffer. help ?
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 ;)
i've just updated the database (version 7) why can't i find dlc items?
wish i read here before trying the editor, wrecked my 360 save,failed to save :/
I've corrupted my save probably 20 times since post-patch. This fixes every time.

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:

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.
any idea as to when dlc items will be added ? sorry if this seems rude.
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 ;)
Happy days!
Would it be possible for you or someone else to provide a link to this particular thread? Sorry, I'm new around these parts. =)
Well I managed to find this http://www.360haven.com/forums/threa...x-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?
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.
But is this Xbox and PS3?
As you tell by the title it is for both....
OT: Jappi any certain time frame you're working on as to know when the next update might be?

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.

Nice to see the update roll out, thanks so much Jappi. I am having a problem however. I can't seem to set the DLC consumables to 99. It's acting as if it doesn't stack and it will just make 99 individual duplicates.
Oh and one more thing, I didn't see the quartz +3 as well as the bite +1 rings.
