Just a couple tips for anyone reading.

To get more skill points, respec and then save/quit. When you open your SaveGame.sav file, you should see the amount of skill points on the main player page and RAW page. Edit to your content (i changed the number to the same on both pages, to be safe)
Axton needs 87 extra skill points to max out the trees at level 50, Salvador needs 88, Maya and Zero need 81.

Second thing is about ammo and backpack space. I changed the BlackMarketUpgrades Values to 25 (could prob use more, but I am ok with this), except the LAST TWO. Those I changed to 1 (0 would probably work, but I did 1 and am not home to test 0). This allows you to purchase more SDUs from the black market dealer. I am not sure which is which, but the bank caps out at 16 for me. The backpack, however, seems to keep going. I am up to 63 slots. Just change those numbers and add eridium if you need, inject the sav file, load your game, purchase SDUs, rinse, repeat. Kind of a long process, but it gets the job done!

From what I can tell, the bank space works just like the ammo. Only difference is, in Raw data there's a line that says "Max Bank Slots" I think. Once you increase that, your bank will increase just like the ammo. It worked like that for me anyway. I set the black market upgrade to 15 & set the max bank slots to 30 & I had 30 slots in the bank. I'm sure I could go higher on the max bank slots & it will continue to increase.

Thanks for the tip, I completely forgot about that setting. I will try that later tonight

Didn't work for me.
EDIT 1: Tried something else that did work, just going to retest to see if it works again.
TEST 1: Failed
TEST 2: Failed
TEST 3: Failed

I couldn't recreate whatever I did but I have 39/16 in my bank. Also, simply buying more bank SDUs don't work. This is very perplexing.

Quick Question: Lets say I start a new game with a new Level 1 character. I want to level him/her up to 20. How would I go about doing this correctly using the save editor without messing up the game or character?

Ok I figured something out with backpack space. My character already had 27 slots so I went into the raw data & set the 8th value back to 0 because those stats measure how many items have been purchased from the black market. When I loaded up the game, I was able to purchase all the backpack upgrades again. Now I have 42 slots! I haven't tried it but it might work for bank space as well.

UPDATE: This can be repeated. I'm up to 57 backpack slots now. Just be sure you have 60 eridium on hand each time you do it.

Upgrading backpack worked for me, I had changed the first 7 numbers to 12 (which more-or-less doubled ammo capacity?), then changed the last two numbers to 0 (this was after I had previously purchased full backpack upgrades and ammo etc), and it appered that I had not purchased the backpack upgardes, they are now at 42.
Good job Danny:smile:

I levelled my character from 43 to 50 like this:
Find out what the next exp increase will be (from the game player menu) and change the exp to 1 less in the player screen of the editor, then save, rehash etc. When you load the game, kill an enemy, you will level up straight-away, then find out again when the next exp increase will be, and do the same again.
It will take a long time though. Another way would be to guess what exp you will need to get to level 20 (it is 3,429,728 to level 50), and do it in one go OR just change the level to 20, and load the game, then kill someone (only thing is I do not believe the exp will change, which will be inconsistant)
I did it the slow way as the other methods might highlight 'things' with MS or gearbox? (doubt it though......)

Anyone come across any "RAW Data" for EQUIPMENT slots? I need to unlock slots 3 and 4 again, they glitched on me and got re-locked!

Which line in BlackMarketUpgrades, 8 or 9? Or all of them?

I've tried a combination of 3 things - Changing those numbers in the BlackMarketUpgrades, changing the value of MaxBankSlots, and also physically adding the Bank Slots in that one section that has the 'Add' button (cannot recall right now as I don't have the editor in front of me), and changing 1, 2 or all 3 with higher numbers didn't work at all.

I think we may have to settle with changing backpack/bank values with Python for now until maybe gibbed's tool can somehow make it work with a later revision.

You can try and make the equipment slot SDU in backpack section, I noticed it was there in the files.

Where did you exactly see the files to make up the item, that would be GREAT!

Backpack section, go to add items, and search for the backpack SDU file in the drop down bar.

I found it and created 2 Equipment Slot SDU's and......ITS FIXED!!! It automatically opened the last 2 slots, I didnt have to "use" the SDU. THANKS A MILL BRO!

I was able to increase my bank by setting the BlackMarketUpgrades to 15 and MaxBankSlots to 36 (15x2+6).

I'm gonna try it with some other numbers as well.

Does this program have the ability to edit PS3 files? If so, what would be required to do so? Like what file exactly and how would someone go about getting that file if even possible? Thanks.

Hm, maybe I'll try it again. It could be I missed something somewhere... did you mess with that one part where you physically add Bank Slots?

First I want to say that this editor is the best (and only) I've seen so far :biggrin: . Second, for all those having the problem with your money, skill points, guns, ect try using horizon instead of modio. This has happened to me plenty of times.

No, every time I did that and the BlackMarketUpgrades it reset back to 14 (the number of items I had in my bank), so loss of 2 slots.
After looking into it more, the default BankSlots for me has 14 entries, so that might be the number of items in the bank.

Just tried BlackMarketUpgrades = 20 and MaxBankSlots = 46, didn't work, dropped me back to 14, and removing an item from the bank reduces the size of the bank, doesn't give me an empty space.

Gonna try some more values.

Yeah, you may be on to something. For me it either reset, or went back down to default when I messed with that part of it as well. The solution may be something so simple and everyone is just missing it somehow. >_<
