Cave Story+ save converter to Linux format

Two days ago Linux version of Cave Story+ became available in Steam. I tried to use Profile.dat from windows version, but found that saves format of windows version of CaveStory+ is incompatible with linux version.

So i wrote a python script that convert saves to format of linux version.



You can download it here



It can work in gui mode if it launched without parameters, in which it will ask for original file and ask where save converted file.


Or it can work in command-line mode:

./cavestoryplus_save_converter.py (original_file) (destination_file)

I tested it only on some my saves. Also maybe it will work with drm-free humble bundle version of CaveStory+, but i didn't tested it.


If you found a bug, feel free to write me here or at kravich[at]gmail.com



PS. Thanks [member='Celtic Minstrel'] for his win<->mac convert script and [member='andwhyisit'] for some explanations about linux saves format

 

Very nice script, simple but effective.

 

May I add it to the site?
