[Tool] GD save file editor

Grim Dawn Utilities and Resources
1084

Hi there @Odie,

An interesting error that I hope you can help me fix.

When attempting to run gd-edit.exe, the window containing the command prompt opens, and then closes a few seconds later. I do not have a chance to enter anything at the prompt.

Here’s some info on my system that might be helpful:

Java version: 8 (Update 261)
Windows 10 Home
Grim Dawn version 1.1.7.2 (Steam version, running in x64 mode)

Here is what I have tried so far:

  1. Running gd-edit.exe as administrator - problem persisted.
  2. Running gd-edit.exe in various Windows compatibility modes - problem persisted.

Hoping you can help me. If you need any more info on my system then just pm me :slightly_smiling_face:

1085

Hi there!

Can you run the editor directly from the command line and see if it outputs anything before exiting?

1086

Hi @Odie - many thanks for your quick reply :slightly_smiling_face:

I ran gd-edit from the command line - turned out I needed the 64-bit version of Java. The editor is now running correctly :grinning:

One more quick question: can the editor change the values of character resistances?

1087

Sorry! All your resistances comes from the gear and/or skills you have. There is no way to directly change those stats.

1088

Ok no problem - thanks again for the quick reply. Having a lot of fun with the editor so far - great job! :smiley:

1089

Thanks bud! Lemme know if you run into more problems. :slight_smile:

Keeps happening when I try to add an item. I have tried multiple different items, same error. Seems to not like the 2nd word in whatever arg I put in.

Maybe the new version of GD broke something? Maybe I am doing something wrong?

1091

The command is close but not quite the right syntax you need. You don’t need to specify the item is a Blueprint, just it’s name will do. Either of the following will work (tested both). You need the quotes around the item you are trying to create.

set inv/1/items “Mistborn Talisman” OR
set inv/1/item “Mistborn Talisman”

1092

You were on the right track. I was just missing quotes. The blueprint worked with the quotes. I am just dumb.

1093

hmmm… can u post new link download pls??
and i dont know why it doesn’t running @@ it always shutdown the program after few second

1094

The download link is in the very first post. It’s always up to date. If the program is shutting down on start, the most likely solution is to grab a 64 bit version of Java.

:slight_smile:

1096

OMG !! After i remove old java to install new java ( same version ) then it’s working now :smiley:

1097

hi i installed this tool and was able to change a characters lvl to 85 so it works however im having trouble using it to add items im trying to give my character a killrians skullbreaker with the prefix void touched and the suffix of conflagration how would i go about dooing this?

1098

Howdy!

Try
set inv/1/item “void touched killrians skullbreaker of conflagration”

The editor ought to be able to give you most items just by naming them this way. =)

1099

this gives me an exception null i have also noticed that when i do: level 85 and then load the game my character has not updated im not sure how to fix this

1100

What does the exception look like? Can you cut the paste the text here?

Usually, you need to issue the write command after your edits to save the file to disk. But, since the item creation didn’t work quite right, it should have left your character untouched.

this is the whole thing i hope this helps

Looks like it had trouble accessing your inventory. The character probably have not received its first inventory bag yet.

Try this instead.

set inv/0/items “void touched killrians skullbreaker of conflagration”

If the format of this command doesn’t quite make sense, please see https://odie.github.io/gd-edit-docs/faq/#how-do-i-add-an-item-to-my-inventorysack for an explanation.

which to me looks right however upon loading the game it does not show up in my inventory do i need to save changes before exiting the program or something?

1104

Yep, that’s what it is supposed to look like when it’s working correctly.

After editing your character, you have to write the file to disk before the game can have access to it. You can either just do “w” (as per the prompt) or use the “write” command, which is always available.

Also, if you have cloud save enabled, you’ll need to first quit the game so the file changes become available to the game. Alternatively, you can disable cloud save, for newly saved character files to become immediately available for loading.
