Dragon Age Origins Save Editor

  • So I just completed my annual Dragon Age binge, starting with DA:O and ending with a replay of my favorite canon Inquisitor, and it has once again hit me why no other game (other than the Mass Effect trilogy) holds up in the same way. Despite hundreds of hours spent on each game, it genuinely feels as though I took a trip home to see old friends.
  • IMPORTANT: 0.4.9b fixed what is probably a severe bug with the handling of strings in Dragon Age 2 save files. So upgrade if you're at version 0.4.9a or earlier. An editor for GFF files, without any documentation. Included is also a simple DA:O savegame editor.

Dragon Age II Save Editing Though the save files are very similar you will not be able to open them in the toolset. Instead you must use 'pyGFF 0.4.9b Saved Game Editor' or higher (for now) to edit save games.

The GFF editor is a tool for opening and editing GFF files, such as savegames. See GFF for information about the GFF file format.

Out of memory error

The GFF editor that comes with the toolset is not very efficiently programmed, unfortunately. When opening GFF files as small as 7 megabytes or so (which savegames can easily reach) the editor's memory usage can skyrocket above 3 gigabytes and potentially cause the editor to crash.

While the memory usage itself can't be worked around presently (it's an inherent flaw in the editor), it is possible to make the editor less prone to crashing when it reaches such large memory sizes using a trick developed by Krayzie_3334.[1]

  1. Download CFF Explorer,
  2. Open Dragonagetoolset.exe with CFF (make a backup first)
  3. In the Left-Hand Pane, Left Click ( Highlight ) 'File Header'
  4. In the Right-Hand Pane Click on the 'Click here' box.
  5. In the 'Characteristics Window' Check the 'App can handle >2GB address space' box.
  6. Click OK
  7. File -> Save & Exit.
