[Tool] GD Defiler

[Skyron]

This should be resolved now, please let me know if it isn’t.

It works just fine now, thank you so much for looking into this, it updated my old install in 2 seconds. Much appreciated.

How can I reset all skill points, so that I can reskill? Do I have to delete every skill and than I have to set the available skill points to (what??!) Thanks for awnsering

I am sure this will rank very high on the stupid question list, but I don’t see any characters I’ve created in the expansion, nor are any of my old characters correct, they show lowers levels than they are now that I’ve played the expansion, etc.?

In the screenshot below there are two ‘Remove’ buttons, when clicked you’ll be given the option to remove all associated skills for that mastery effectively allowing you to choose another mastery and skills.

[SoulSeekkor]

Same, even with exception through Firewall.

Are you still having trouble? Please let me know!

I can’t get the skill points modifier to save anymore.

EDIT: Apparently you have to hit “enter” after you put in the number of skills you want added or something. Not sure, weird UI thing going on there.

You mean when updating the skill level for a particular skill? I’ve done away with the ‘Update’ button that was there, it now tracks it as it’s changed.

Edit: nevermind, using the Install button from your website worked !
but I’am still curious what causes the exeption when using the other method ?

I’d need a log to tell for sure, I haven’t seen the deployment zone exception that seems to be occurring before, I’ll most likely do away with the publish very soon anyway so this will no longer be an issue.

[SoulSeekkor]

That worked, thanks a lot! But the application cannot save (this error happens whenever I click the save button). It only happens if I try to save an existing player.gdc file, “Save As” works (but then the game doesn’t recognize my new character and I don’t get an option to select it in the main menu).

I’m using Steam cloud saves if that’s relevant.

Unfortunately I’m not getting an exception when testing with a cloud save myself. Can you let me know what the path is out of curiousity for the save you are editing? The location can be found in the attached screenshot. If you can, could you test a non-cloud save and see if it happens as well? Thank you!!

The location can be found in the attached screenshot.

Note that the first numbered folder, after userdata, will be different for each person. I suspect that number is the user’s Steam ID.

I just downloaded GD Defiler for the first time. It initially started, but I tried adding the Grim Dawn file location(I have it on steam) in the settings. I closed the app accidentally, now it won’t load. I keep getting the cannot start application error.

Is there any fix for this? I looked to try and uninstall/reinstall, but it isn’t in the list of uninstallable apps

update

Apparently AVG wasn’t allowing me to open it again. Fixed.

Thanks for the update, glad you were able to get it worked out!

@SoulSeekkor Well the website works now but while trying to run setup.exe generates the known error

An error occurred trying to download ‘http://www.soulseekkor.com/apps/gddefiler/publicpublish/GDDefiler.application’.

See the setup log file located at ‘C:\Users\sn00p\AppData\Local\Temp\VSD61C2.tmp\install.log’ for more information.

Hmm, can you disable any Antivirus you have installed before running the setup? It looks like it’s getting blocked.

i can also confirm this soul. for some reason your newest up date to the program seems to be getting it flagged and moved to my virus chest by Avast.

hopefully you can get this patched soon.

Working on this! Remember there are now backups of your character made each time you’ve clicked ‘Save’ to save changes made in GD Defiler.

You can find them in the same folder as the save you modified (typically character’s save folder) with a “gddbak” extension.

Hey Soulseekkor, so my character got wiped using GD Defiler but I managed to get him back from one of the gddbak extensions.

But the quest line has completely reset now. Is there a way to get the quest line back to normal?

Unfortunately there isn’t really anything I can do, AV detects applications such as mine as a false positive sometimes (has going back to the early TQ Defiler days). This may be due to the portion of the GD Defiler that is the “modification engine” for applying mods, after all changing a DLL file would normally be suspicious.

Really about the only thing that can be done is switch to an AV with fewer false positives (debatable) or if possible submit the file that gets flagged as a false positive (better if it can be done).

Wish I had a better answer. On the bright side, when I update next it very well may not flag it.

Is there any problem using this? Do I get cheat flagged in steam or anything Else negative?

No. Grim Dawn was made explicitly for modding and third party tools.

Hmm, weird Windows Defender is disabled and I don’t use any AV softwares, common sense works best, and I let the setup.exe through the firewall tho.

[Dem0lition]

It works now, thanks a bunch.

An additional note to this, I’ll be looking into testing an avenue that may help alleviate the issue with AV and false positives. Once I get a chance to try this in an update, I’ll also note it in that release here and the forums and ask for feedback!

I’ve created an installer using Advanced Installer:
http://www.soulseekkor.com/apps/gddefiler/GDDefiler.msi

Please let me know how this works for you guys! This is a test, if things work okay with the MSI I’d like to switch to using this going forward, eventually I’ll need to get the Professional version which supports automatic updating, but I don’t have $400 to blow right now lol.

Please let me know, thank you!!
