WH3 Save Editor

⚠ DOWNLOAD TEMPORARILY UNAVAILABLE HERE ⚠

The file is currently held in Nexus Mods' automated quarantine. A few antivirus engines on VirusTotal (McAfee and similar) flag the .exe as suspicious — this is a well-known false positive that affects virtually every Python app packaged with PyInstaller, not anything this tool actually does.

👉 In the meantime, you can always download the .exe from GitHub:

github.com/davehornik/WH3SaveEditor/releases

The GitHub release is also the most up-to-date version — a new update is coming within a few days (working multiplayer → singleplayer campaign conversion, readable character/faction names and more), and it will land on GitHub first.

Sorry for the inconvenience — I'm working on getting the quarantine lifted, but Nexusmods' support take ages to reply.

WH3 Save Editor is a free savegame editor for Total War: WARHAMMER III — the spiritual successor to the old SaveParser, which never supported WH3. It works with both singleplayer (.save) and co-op/multiplayer (.save_multiplayer) campaign saves. Everything below is verified in game on patch 8. 1.x — edited values survive loading and re-saving.

WHAT IT CAN EDIT

• []Money — any faction's treasury (quick edit for player factions right on the overview page)[/]

  []Characters — rank, XP and unspent skill points; includes the recruitment pool, so you can hire pre-leveled lords; role detection (army / hero / caravan / garrison / recruit)[/]

  []Units — strength (instant heal), max size, rank, experience; grouped and filterable by army[/]

  []Diplomacy — war / peace / alliances between any two factions via a color-coded picker, treaties (non-aggression pact, trade rights, military access), experimental vassal/master editing[/]

  []Save management — rename saves, quick-open list of recent saves, see which mods a save requires (with Steam Workshop links)[/]

  []RAW data view — full tree of the entire save structure for advanced edits[/]

  []English & Czech interface[/]

GETTING STARTED

No installation needed:

• []Download WH3SaveEditor.exe and run it — pick your language; the app finds your save folders automatically.[/]

  []Open a save, edit, hit "Save as…", then load it in the game.[/]

  []Standalone Windows 10/11 executable — no Python or other runtime required.[/]

⚠ ALWAYS back up your original save before editing. ⚠

PLANNED NEXT

• []Territory & buildings editing[/]

  []A "save doctor" that diagnoses and repairs corrupted saves (missing mods, version mismatch, structural damage)[/]

  []Real character names instead of internal keys[/]

  []Character respec (refund spent skill points)[/]

  []Save diff — compare two saves[/]
