Hi Fairchild. I think that Trendy updated something because dd.exe no longer works for my May 26 & 28 save games but I can decompress May 23 and prior with no problems. Is your compression toolkit still working for you? I noticed that everyone uses your compression toolkit in their modding tuts. Thanks for your work on it. I had a blast while it still worked for me (the last 67 days).

Just loaded my game up(haven't played in a while) and did a mission then saved. Then used Fairchild's program and it worked fine for me. Must be something on your end.

That was a quick assumption Skullkeeper, were you running the most recent title update?
Tinkerbell I have same situation, more or less, here it is:

I can confirm that the decompression tool frooze on me (FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER) today when redoing a game save from scratch (more or less). Been making a save to release to the public again that'll be better then the last with cool stuff but I needed to do some changes via playing the game, after extracting the save after a couple days of work and running dd.exe from command line and GUI (not that it would make a difference but decided to test to be thorough) it froze when trying to decompress my game save. Now the save is not normal as it's a full tavern (60 items, the current max) and a full item box (255 items, the current max) and full characters (6. the current max). This is the first time I needed to decompress a save that's been altered by the new title update. Now Fairchild's decompression tool still works with all my older game saves without an issue, and I moved the new game save and dd.exe into drive root to see if that would help, no go. When looking at hex of a new title update game save (compressed) compared to a pre-title update(same exact save, simply loaded into game with new title update then exit).. they are definitely different!
Example:
Pre - update:

0000001C00005F500003D7DF9E2A83C100020000000046160003D7DF00001C3400020000000029E20001D7DF0A382010000000002332503400005F00767776EDDFD6B5B656ABEAB6A9D65D6DDF7FD46CFFB6C9B6FA76CDDE90ACCE92F5DA9DDB76DB6D7BC2ADD6D65ABF3FA84804813F50148B844808E5B32011044A0022C68A5240562CC628240314599816

and after update:

0000001C00005F500003D7DF9E2A83C100020000000046180003D7DF00001C3600020000000029E20001D7DF0A382010000000002332503400005F00767776EDDFD6B5B656ABEAB6ABD65D6DD7769AFDDF96D9F6DF2ED95B92B569125EDB73BB6EBB6DCFB8B5DA5AEBD7075589E0F007CA27911009617C1624A24009408458110AC88A4518C564C0228BD382

I think the developers pulled either a Gears of War on us and/or they changed the crc/compression method.

Any thoughts? Idle what you think?
(btw I have all 3 DLCs but that should make a difference in the save being re-rendered as it is, I believe this only has to do with the title update)

[chadmiller]

The file dd.exe is corrupt every time i download it any suggestions please

[Skullkeeper]

That was a quick assumption Skullkeeper, were you running the most recent title update?

Yes I just went online again and finished a level and let is save. I went through the whole modding process manually and with Cybersam's editor. No problems here. I understand you and others are having a problem. I was just letting it be known that I have the title updates and DLC as well and I am not having any problems.

[XboxRainbowMods]

That's just the thing.. you're using Eternia crystal to mod... I do things that, from what I heard, that editor does not... but does it uncompress a file and save it locally? If so I may just use it to decompress/recompress.

I still mod this game the old fashion way:
