Hi Lusia,

I don't have D:OS installed at the moment so I can't check what value you'd need. The easiest way I can think of is checking the the UUID of the item template in the Divinty Engine, and replace the root template of one of your items with that UUID. Adding new items via xml modification is quite hard as you'll have to generate item handles yourself and update the item factory, so it's easier to just repurpose an useless item in the inventory.

Hi Tree,

In general the tampered/corrupted message occurs if a hash check in the PAK footers failed. There are several possible causes:
1) the file really is corrupted
2) it was edited with an old version of the exporter; versions before v1.8.3 did not recompute the archive hash, so after the editing the tampered/corrupted error was always there (at least in D:OS 2)
3) the savegame was modified previously, and the sanity check flag in meta.lsx was not cleared
4) I remember D:OS and D:OS EE having a different tamper check scheme than D:OS 2, so I'm not sure if v1.8.3 fixed it for the original as well, or only for D:OS 2

Is there a possibility that Larian might treat this issue differently in the future and block my saves?


They'll not prevent you from playing tampered savegames, as this kind of savegame modification worked for the last 3 years with no issues, and continues to work in D:OS 2 as well. They'll be unlikely to help though if you get stuck or encounter a bug with a modified savegame.
