Checksum Fixers

Dark Souls Remastered Checksum Fixer

Rebuild only per-entry MD5 fields in a verified Dark Souls Remastered PC BND4 save.

Dark Souls Remastered PC

01 / Tool workbench

Use the runtime only when it is actually ready.

The application shell fails closed. An input interface is not enabled merely because a WordPress Tool record exists; the declared engine must be registered in the current build.

Dark Souls Remastered Checksum Fixer
BROWSER LOCAL

Checking whether the declared runtime module is loaded. No input has been processed.

Session change summary

No output has been built in this session.

What this checksum tool changes

Rebuild only per-entry MD5 fields in a verified Dark Souls Remastered PC BND4 save.

Verified input boundary

The file must parse as a bounded non-overlapping 11-entry BND4, carry the documented zeroed Remastered discriminator at header bytes 24-31, and successfully decrypt at least one character entry with the documented DSR AES key to a bounded save-format version. Existing MD5 mismatches are allowed as repair targets.

What is deliberately not claimed

No Prepare to Die Edition promotion, Steam account transfer, character/stat/inventory editing, decrypted export, payload recovery, console format, or arbitrary BND4 support is claimed.

Output

A separate .sl2 copy with each entry's first 16 bytes replaced by MD5(IV + encrypted payload); encrypted payload and BND4 structure remain unchanged.

How to use it safely

Close the game, back up the PC .sl2 save, select it locally, inspect the invalid-MD5 count, run repair, and keep the original until the repaired copy loads.

Troubleshooting

A PtDE-style nonzero header discriminator, malformed/overlapping entry table, wrong key fingerprint, or wrong extension fails closed. This tool does not reconstruct damaged encrypted payload.

Verification evidence

Verified with clean and checksum-damaged deterministic AES/BND4 fixtures, independent parser/hash/decryption checks, PtDE/wrong-key/overlap negatives, exact-byte repair, immutable-original checks, and post-write reopen.

02 / Compatibility

Know the supported input before opening a file.

Compatibility fields are intentionally explicit. Missing values stay unclaimed rather than being filled with generic assumptions.

Supported versions / editions

Dark Souls Remastered PC 11-entry encrypted BND4 family.

Input constraints

The file must parse as a bounded non-overlapping 11-entry BND4, carry the documented zeroed Remastered discriminator at header bytes 24-31, and successfully decrypt at least one character entry with the documented DSR AES key to a bounded save-format version. Existing MD5 mismatches are allowed as repair targets.

Known limitations

No Prepare to Die Edition promotion, Steam account transfer, character/stat/inventory editing, decrypted export, payload recovery, console format, or arbitrary BND4 support is claimed.

Output / result

A separate .sl2 copy with each entry's first 16 bytes replaced by MD5(IV + encrypted payload); encrypted payload and BND4 structure remain unchanged.

03 / Instructions

Use a reversible workflow.

File-oriented workflows start with an untouched original. Tool-specific instructions add only details documented for this utility.

  1. 01Keep the original

    Preserve an untouched copy before creating or transforming binary output.

  2. 02Confirm scope

    Match the file size, format, platform, and version to the support information on this page.

  3. 03Process locally

    Use the runtime only when the page reports that its declared engine is loaded.

  4. 04Validate output

    Compare or test the result before replacing any working source file.

Tool-specific steps

Close the game, back up the PC .sl2 save, select it locally, inspect the invalid-MD5 count, run repair, and keep the original until the repaired copy loads.

04 / Privacy and processing

The processing mode is part of the product contract.

SaveEditor.com should state local processing only when the implementation truly keeps file contents in the browser. Server or hybrid processing must be disclosed just as clearly.

Declared mode

Browser local

Runtime state

Operational

Tool-specific privacy notes

The selected save is processed entirely in the browser after explicit selection. Phase 39 checksum profiles and codec scripts contain no fetch, XMLHttpRequest, WebSocket, or sendBeacon calls. The original bytes stay immutable; repair produces a separate copy only after game-specific structural identification, and that copy must reopen under the same verified profile.

05 / Troubleshooting

When a file is rejected, do not force it.

A rejection can indicate an unsupported size, format, version, platform, or byte sequence. Preserve the original and correct the input instead of bypassing validation.

Wrong file or size

Re-check the documented input type and browser size limit before retrying.

Unsupported format

A generic converter does not imply support for every game-specific container, signing scheme, or serialization format.

Source was modified

Return to the untouched source instead of repeatedly processing a damaged or partially transformed file.

Known Tool issues

A PtDE-style nonzero header discriminator, malformed/overlapping entry table, wrong key fingerprint, or wrong extension fails closed. This tool does not reconstruct damaged encrypted payload.

06 / Verification

Support claims should be traceable.

The verification date, method notes, and public references are kept separate from marketing language so compatibility can be reviewed over time.

07 / FAQ

Questions to answer before editing.

These answers are generated from the Tool record and current runtime state rather than generic compatibility promises.

Is Dark Souls Remastered Checksum Fixer ready to use?
The Tool record is verified and declares an operational runtime. The page enables its input controls only when the declared engine module is loaded in the current build.
Does processing stay in the browser?
Yes for this declared mode. The loaded runtime processes the explicit input in the browser; Tool-specific privacy notes describe the exact scope and limits.
Should I keep the original file?
Yes. Keep an untouched source file until any generated output has been validated.
What if my version is not listed?
Treat unlisted versions as unverified. Do not assume two releases use identical save layouts, checksums, signing, or serialization.
