I get a 'Java Heap Space' error. What should I do ?
-
Make sure you use a 64 bit Java Virtual Machine (this requires a 64 bit OS).
-
If you still have the issue with the 64 bit JVM, increase its heap size
To do so, create a batch file with the following content (adjusted for the directory your JVM is in) in the GD Stash directory and run the batch file rather than double-clicking the .jar file
"C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_101\bin\java.exe" -Xms1024m -Xmx1024m -jar GDStash.jar
A sample batch file is included, open it with the text editor of your choice and adjust the path of the java.exe in it (and possibly the heap size, if the specified size is not enough).
Does this tool work with Steam cloud save files ?
No, only with local save files.
You can store items from cloud saves in GD Stash, but I have not found a reliable way to get them back into the cloud save
(which is not to say that it never works, only that it is not reliable).
Can I edit the shared stash while I am playing in game ?
Yes, provided the shared stash is not open in game.
Can I edit a character I am currently playing in game ?
No, never change a character that is currently loaded in game.
While editing my shared stash, it got corrupted. What can I do ?
The tool always creates a backup of the previous stash first. transfer.t00 for SC, transfer.h00 for HC.
By renaming that file back to .gst / .gsh you can recover it.
The tool also keeps older versions with ascending numbers (.t00, .t01, .t02, ...) so if you did multiple edits
before you noticed the corruption, try the older files.

The tool always creates a backup of the previous character first. player.g00.
By renaming that file back to .gdc you can recover it.
The tool also keeps older versions with ascending numbers (.g00, .g01, .g02, ...) so if you did multiple edits

After importing the DB, I get a list of messages. What should I do ?
Unless that list contains error messages, ignore it.
Most messages are inconsistencies in Grim Dawn's data but of no consequence (only for items that do not drop).
If you use a localization zip and get a lot of 'missing tag' warnings, please check if the localization file is for the current
Grim Dawn version and use a newer one if necessary / available.
You added support for Spears and Staffs from the Grim Quest mod. My mod also has new item types, will you add them ?
The short answer is no.
I added the Grim Quest items because Grim Dawn is the spiritual successor to Titan Quest.
Being its spiritual successor, Grim Dawn actually still had some unused tags for these item types, which I am now using to support them.
No other item type has such unused tags, so no other item type has this kind of support within Grim Dawn itself, so it cannot be supported
like that in GD Stash either.
