One of the domain names I don't plan to use anymore (sldayo.com) has just expired, and DISE can't display news.

Finally, this update brings FULL support for modding PlayStation 3 saves! Game Genie is NOT required!

I hereby proudly present you with great news for you and your PS3 console.

I've cracked the extra security layer for Dead Island: Riptide saves! This means good-bye to Game Genie, and you will be able to mod PS3 saves as much as you want to, for free!

I could fix this quickly in DISE, but it will become a problem again after some time when the IDs change again. Will first need to figure out how they change so that DISE always knows the right IDs.

Please see the previous posts for more details.

Please see the post for the previous release for more details. Thank you for reporting issues! :)

I'm currently in need of some help with testing DISE. Any problems you meet (crashes, strange/unexpected behavior, etc.) can be reported via e-mail.

I had planned to release the update any day now, but it seems to be a bit difficult.

Here's pretty much how it'll work in the next release of DISE.

I decided to make much effort to support PS3, and I'll let you know the progress I've made the recent days.

An anonymous user [broken comment link removed] commented here and suggested Game Genie in addition to DISE.

This is a big language update, and has other fixes as well. :)

I've written and uploaded a simple tool and short guide that aims to make it really easy for people to mod DI saves. Please note that it doesn't magically fix the issues we're having.

A crash report is not needed this time. Instead, please install DISE manually [broken link removed] if updating crashes. After starting the new version, cancel the old update and delete it.

An update a lot of people have waited for. Since I haven't yet tested everything, feedback is most welcome! :)

For some reason, some things can take space in the inventory when they shouldn't (medkits and alcohol).

I can understand if some people have been annoyed with how DISE didn't sync (Steam) Riptide saves, and didn't even find the game-saves if you used not-strictly-legal versions of the game (please buy the game). This update will hopefully make you more at ease. :)

More ammo types are supported, but special ammo can actually only be modified by changing the quantity in your inventory (add the items if needed).

This is a pretty good update if you need to edit your skill trees.

Here are a few "skill tweaks" you can try to make manually. They should work pretty much the same way as they did for Dead Island. :)

This is a rather large update, mostly featuring the new skill trees.

The fix will be available in the next update (very soon).

This is because it tries to save something related to Riptide that doesn't exist in DI. I've fixed this already and the next version will not crash for the same reason when saving regular DI saves.

There is also a separate list of inventory items.

If you were affected by the Xbox save bug in the previous release, you can easily fix it

Due to great demand, this small update fixes the sniper rifle not showing up in DISE.

Some people requested a list of items, so here you go. You can add the items using "Add custom item".

There is also a separate list of collectibles.

Hello, and thank you for the continued support! Because the majority of you probably don't read my few tweets, here you go...

After coding too much without sleep, I've somehow managed to injure my secondary arm. Needless to say, I need to take it easy for a bit and not type so much. This means means I probably will not be on the public/private chat much, but will try to respond to e-mails and comments on the blog (but not for chit-chatting).

I'll be working as much as I can, behind the scenes. :)

You may try to delete a registry key, or you can run DISE with the "-deletepref" argument. Alternatively, you can begin (un)installing DISE, then tick "Delete preferences" to delete user preferences.

Dual release this time! v0.1.2 is the stable build, like before, without Riptide support. v0.1.2.1 has limited Riptide support.

I'm so excited about improving DISE, and of course supporting Riptide. With all of your cooperation and heartfelt donations, you have my big and warm THANK YOU SO MUCH! :D

Yes, I'm still working on it, and I've added hero level data and such into DISE. This is all that is needed for DISE to not crash while loading saves, but there's one problem I need to sort out before I can release this early build.

I've received lots of questions about Riptide, and I've done my best to not answer them officially. Now, I can finally confirm that I'll be working on supporting Riptide in DISE itself.

This is just a heads-up just in case you find that the blog and/or Contribution Center is inaccessible, or there are other web server-related troubles, while I migrate data over to the new server. :)

Since someone asked me recently, I'll share this with everyone. DISE can edit PS3 saves with a little effort. I have however not been able to make the modded save work on the PS3. If any of you get it working, please do let me know the right way to do it! :)

DISE has so far been more convenient for users of the PC game. Xbox support came 2nd, but I didn't forget you. Development of STFS support has just been slow and difficult, so what you got was very basic.

While I continue (slowly but surely) working to finish the new auto-updating system for DISE, the next version will provide more security for you all. DISE will use secure, encrypted connections to the server, using CyaSSL.
