About this mod

Save that includes nearly all of War's equipment right from the beginning of the game

Hello!

Since Darksiders 4 has been announced I thought now would be a good time to dust off my old collection and play some of the older titles. However, one issue that always bothered me was that War's journey in Darksiders 1 never had a New Game+ option like his siblings did.

So I decided to use the good ol' save editor and add most of War's equipment into the game right from the start. I also included a text file on how to install the save file.

Since he has so many cool options I decided to make saves for his base armor and sword (Chaos Eater) and other ones for players who wish to use the Abyssal armor and Armageddon Blade.


Compact upload:
The mod folder contains two different versions, one is for those who want max health/wrath stats and the other is to start the game with base health/wrath. Each version includes two normal saves and two apocalyptic saves. Why? Because each difficulty has 1 save where War wears his base equipment and the other includes his Abyssal+Armageddon Blade. This upload is called the "compact" upload.

Separate Files upload:

I made another upload however, in case people have issues with all the saves being corrupted (even after adding their UserID). This one is called "separate files", be sure to use this if you face corruption on all 4 saves in the compact version. It is organized with various .sav files, simply select which stats/equipment .sav file you want to add to your game.


Some more notes:

-You will start off with 1,000,000 souls but all your skills will be level 1, speak to Vulgrim and all of the abilities will be purchasable.

-You will need to change the .sav file and include your steam UserID, otherwise the save will be corrupted when you play it. Read the: 'How to install the save.txt' file for more info.
(note: this also involves having to use the save editor I linked below and opening up the .sav file and converting it to a .json file)

-I couldn't get all the weapon enhancements besides the legendary ones working, I faced some issues when repackaging the .json file using the editor

-Ruin is hardly (if ever) able to be used until his appointed time in the story. I tried to make him available early but it severely breaks the game's story progress.

-Certain sub weapons in the shortcut menu don't actually appear when you add them, you may have to fiddle around a bit to make it work. I've noticed if I first add voidwalker into one of the slots I am then able to replace and add any other sub weapon in that same slot and have it load up accurately.

-While having these weapons early can lead to finishing dungeons more quicker, be advised that doing so can lead to unexpected bugs and issues with the dungeon you try to shortcut.

Here is the save editor you need to make this work, read the instructions in the link carefully and also read my included text file:
