The "profile" option is just for unlocking chapters so far? Would love if you could use it to reset the achievements... i really hate starting a new game with friends.. and then having those "level jump" experiences for completing step 4 achievments cause you played it before already
Anonymous: I have looked more into the thing you mentioned. Did you mean achievements or did you mean challenges? I was able to reset challenges (and personal stats). You may not be able to reset achievements since they are tracked by Steam and stored online.
Thanks for letting me know. I wonder what makes AV software trigger warnings. :S Maybe I should try to get in touch and ask why they give false positives.
I meant the challenges, those "ingame" ones that give you the XP rewards, the ones that make you actually "level jump". Nothing sucks more than starting a new game with friends, and within the first 5 steps you take, one of them jumps to lvl 21 cause the zombie he killed was the one that triggered the challenge for tons of XP.
Anon: I can do that! :) You can also do it manually if you would like to do so. Just e-mail me if you're interested. The only problem is that without spending some time trying to figure out how it works, both challenges *and* personal statistics will be cleared.
Then again, there's a hash keeping track of changes made to the data. I don't know if it matters, though. If it does matter, you'll at least be able to clear both challenges and personal statistics.
anything may be better than what i did so far... i deleted the complete default file, losing everything in it... it resetted the challenges... but lots more on top of that ;)
Would you care to share your default.pro file with me? I haven't played online before in this game, so it would be easier for me to figure it out if I could look at your profile.
Steffen, it works like a charm - pretty much a plug and chug - can not thank you enough! i beat the game twice but was too lazy to restart at 0 and get all the mods again so thank you for this wondrous gift! lol very much appreciated :)
Fantastic Save Editor, being able to copy over my best weapons, mods, etc to another character & starting a new game allowed me to stop worrying about finding all that crap again & let me enjoy the game.
Losing everything because of DISE itself sounds a bit unlikely, so I think there's a good reason to investigate it carefully. DISE also makes backups every time before you save, so you should be safe even if something went wrong. I would however like to test this myself if you don't mind. Please feel free to e-mail me: http://deadislandsaveeditor.blogspot.com/p/contact.html
Also, I would not suggest using DISE alpha 50 because it's pretty old. Get the latest one hat is 0.0.55.31 at time of writing. :)
hello steffen are you steffenL in chat box?
ReplyDeleteThat's right :)
ReplyDeleteDid this work on dead island 1.3 ? I can't sync and I'm using 1.3 or because of another problem ?
ReplyDeleteIt should work unless Steam has been updated again. Please e-mail me and tell me how you can't sync. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteWelcome again to the chatanago chat box Steffen. I just made an announcement on our wiki.
ReplyDeletehttp://deadislandwiki.com/wiki/Special:AWCforum/st/id55/#post_298
You have encouraged me to ask more sites to add the chatanago chat box.
It can be added with this code:
http://deadislandwiki.chatango.com/clonegroup?ts=1293824399167
I am assuming the attributes section is still largely unknown? Or made some progress in finding out more?
ReplyDeleteI'm afraid there's still no actual progress on that. :(
ReplyDeleteI may never figure that one out alone, so I welcome anyone who can help.

ReplyDeleteSo far, yes. I will have a look at resetting achievements! :)

ReplyDeleteWhy don't you just use Steam Achievement Manager?
FYI Had a Malware warning from Comodo on the file received from the auto update now option.

ReplyDeleteBest Save Editor for Dead Island. Thank you so much for this :)

ReplyDeleteThank you!
That's great, Ranma! I'm glad! :D
DeleteI had lost Zed's Demise and my second best weapon in my 2nd run due to some stupid bug. I could restore them with your tool, thank you so much!
ReplyDeleteWonderful! :D
DeleteIs something wrong with the download link?
ReplyDeleteIt says "Downloading" and it just sits there forever.
I've tried it on IE, Firefox, Chrome and Opera.
