Save Editor/Converter? (Solved)

[(C)FatheredPuma81]

UPDATE: Apparently DISE has a "experimental" version on their Discord that works with DIDE. You can find a link to their Discord on their website.

Anyone know a save editor or a converter to convert Original DI saves over to DIDE?

Don't want to play the game 2-3 times to get my items back tbh but do occasionally want to play the game with hopefully better options and graphics.

I'm afraid that's impossible without hacking the game. The game is heavily remade, at the moment it can not be done legally.

How is it impossible without hacking the game vs the original? Is the save file heavily encrypted or something with the code and item ID's buried deep inside?

Some game parameters and inventory of heroes have been changed. For example, throwing weapons such as grenades, Molotov cocktails, a can of meat, as well as first aid kits and alcohol in the Definitive Edition no longer occupy a slot in the inventory of heroes.

Just items in the inventory in the Definitive Edition are divided into categories, not collected together as before. And when buying an item from a merchant will now be written in the crafting of what weapons he participates, before this was not.

Also your hero on rage in Definitive Edition does not Shine bright blue light now. This is probably the main disadvantage of the new version, now you can not be sure that the ally uses rage. It may happen that you will use rage at the same time, which is unprofitable.

These and other global changes have been made to the game. I'm afraid now it's two different games and saving can not be transferred painlessly.

Honestly don't know where to start with this... Your reasons are just bad on so many different levels honestly. I'm actually dumbfounded.
None of them even apply to a Save Editor to begin with since that wouldn't even touch old files and would be built for the new game and even if it did it's literally just different item ID's or at worst a different Save Format...

Is that trolling? I don't know how you're gonna handle saving, but good luck. Goodbye.

Nope not trolling. Your reasons were proven absolutely false as soon as I found DISE which does what you say is impossible lol. r
It even allows you to SAVE your Inventory, skills, collectibles, and game progress albeit pretty poorly and import them into your new save.
Doesn't save mission completion (don't care), money (manually entered + DIDE is like Riptide with loadsamoney), level (manually entered), and time played (RIP).
