Legilimens Starter
This is not affiliated with Legilimens or Hogwarts Legacy Save Tool
This program automates the process of decompressing save files with HLSaveTool before running Legilimens on them. It is a simple console program.
Why?
Decompressing the save files is necessary, but it detracts from the convenience that Legilimens aims to provide. Legilimens Starter streamlines the process to make it more convenient.
Setup
If you don't have them already, download Hogwarts Legacy Save Tool from Nexusmods, as well as Legilimens either from Nexusmods (use the executable version) or GitHub
For this to work, you need the following file structure:
For this to work, you need the following file structure:
📁 (Root Folder)
├── 📁 HLSaveTool
└── hlsaves.exe
├── Legilimens.exe
└── LegilimensStarter.exe (you can rename this)
Then, run LegilimensStarter and follow the instructions.
You can also download this program from GitHub
It says the file is suspicious?
Yes, because it's an .exe file. If you don't trust me, you can look at the source code yourself, to see that it is safe. It is written in C#.
It doesn't work
Make sure that you followed the file structure:
Legilimens.exe, and LegilimensStarter.exe, as well as the HLSaveTool folders should all be in the same folder. If you don't have the HLSaveTool folder, download it. If you don't havve Legilimens.exe, download it.
