This worked well when I decided to merge a bunch of my class mods into one mod pack and the game refused to let me play my characters from those individual class mods. Thank you. This still works well in 2025.

What I am trying to do is copy the vanilla save game and paste to the mod save game, I installed a mod to respec skills and stats and now I am trying to use this mod to unbind any mods to that character, then I copy the mod save file and paste to the vanilla save game folder.

I do not see any "continue and unbind" button. All I see is "resume" then "singleplayer" "lan" "multiplayer".

I enabled the mod and disabled the unwanted mod

Then I load the vanilla game and my character is not there. I have the original character files backed up though, but would be nice to be able transfer my fully respec character back to vanilla.

Any tips?

Im trying to unbind mod from my game but it crashes every time I run it. I use the spanish tranlation and synergies mod. Can you fix it? :winter2019coolyul:

For those having trouble using this because the button doesn't show up, just remember to move this mod to the top of the load order.
Works great, thanks for the mod!

@lyravega Hi, I have been working on a new mod and would like to include this one with mine. Would that be ok? You will get credit of course.

Thanks.

How to unbind a steamless game version? German retail for example...
SquarelyCircle 16 Apr, 2015 @ 9:27am 
So, I've got a personal merged mod that I've been using. I attempted to upload it to steam (privately) to share with friends, but it changed the mod ID. Now, when I start the game, it tells me I'll lose items when I start. Using mod unbinder allows me to start, but the items do actually disappear. I restored my save, and I'm wondering if anyone has any insight that could help me avoid losing the items. It's the same mod, it just has a different ID... I don't even see why it should remove my items.

Doh!
Leoland 2 Apr, 2015 @ 1:43pm 
Also, that silly bigger inventory mod dev owes me a beer now ;)
Leoland 2 Apr, 2015 @ 1:41pm 
I know, There was just a toon i wanted to move to vanilla to play with the wife. Looks like ill have to make a fresh one and catch up... Your mod is great and the whole binding issue is silly anyway. steps should have been taken to prevent it.
lyravega  [author] 2 Apr, 2015 @ 11:37am 
Keep Mod Unbinder active Leoland. It'll allow you to keep playing at least.
Leoland 2 Apr, 2015 @ 9:19am 
I cant seem to unbind bigger inventory or massive weapons.
Hitsngiggles 3 Mar, 2015 @ 1:52am 
Holy crap dude! This just saved some of my gear and toons from 250+ hrs of play :) Thankyou so much :)
Orcrion 10 Feb, 2015 @ 9:55pm 
Thank you so much!

Great mod. Helped me a lot
Gabe Puratekuta 18 May, 2014 @ 6:24am 
I did. And now several mods aren't working
lyravega  [author] 17 May, 2014 @ 5:32am 
@Gabe, there must be a conflict between mods as it never happened to me. Anyway, just deactivate the Bigger Inventory, and keep this mod enabled, and this mod will allow you to keep playing.
Gabe Puratekuta 5 May, 2014 @ 6:46pm 
Bigger Inventory is the one I want to get rid of because it makes any embers I try to pick up disappear. Especially after using the transmuter
DarkStar 28 Feb, 2014 @ 3:34pm 
Dude, you have no idea how many hours of grinding you saved me. I'm a modder myself and Synergies stuck to my mod so I couldn't test it properly in a vanilla environment. Also after publishing the mod steam changed the guid so it was not recognized by the game even though it had the same classes, skills etc. With your mod I was able to fix two characters in less than 10 minutes. A toast to you!

Btw, my mod is just released, so if you want to take a look...

Those who are still subscribed to this mod, thank you for staying subscribed. If the developers make another Torchlight, I hope they'll take these numbers into account if they will give modding support again. Nothing better than a mod sticking to your save, right? :)

Thanks bro merci beucoup
1shot1kill 19 Jan, 2014 @ 2:28pm 
great mod bro, theres been some annoying mods and mods that slightly conflict eachother even though the game is still playable. like for example the fishing and pet overhaul conflicts the humans as pets mod because if i feed my human pet a fish with both mods active my pet will lose its weapon and i cannot give it a new one

Bummer. I was rather hoping Unbinder would let me do that. Got five points in a skill I wish I could get back.
lyravega  [author] 18 Jan, 2014 @ 3:35pm 
Getting no pop-up means that the mod doesn't bind to the save. However I'm not sure if you can move a mod-save to the vanilla-save folder and play with it.
Dahlia 18 Jan, 2014 @ 2:54pm 
Hi! I have tried using this mod for adding respec potions to the game. I enabled that mod, bought and used the potion, then saved and exited. Restarted T2, disabling the repsec mod but enabling your Unbinder mod. I get no popup, and when I copy the modsave folder back to the unmodded save folder, the character does not show up. Am I doing something wrong, or will the Unbinder not make my character vanilla-capable again?
lyravega  [author] 14 Jan, 2014 @ 6:46am 
Sometimes it is permanent, sometimes it needs to be stay enabled unfortunately.
Slutt Ballion 13 Jan, 2014 @ 8:26am 
Is this supposed to be permanent or does it only work when it is enabled? I can only seem to unbind the mod when it is enabled - even after saving.
lyravega  [author] 13 Jan, 2014 @ 12:08am 
@Shy Guy, I think so. Try running your save with mod unbinder. If it asks just once, but never again, copying your modded save to the vanilla save folder might work. No promises though, never tried it. Back everything up before trying so.

Hi, I would like to bring my mod-enabled character into vanilla. Is it possible to do with MU?
lyravega  [author] 13 Dec, 2013 @ 10:43am 
Ahh, I see... Sorry to hear that. Remember to take back-ups regularly in the future, for any game that you play, and thanks :)
sidewinder_G 13 Dec, 2013 @ 9:24am 
No, I copied the modded save file into the unmodded save file so I am pretty much done with multiplayer :( My characters do not appear in vanilla and won't appear since the modded file is the same with the unmodded one. Again, my thanks and awesome profile pic !
lyravega  [author] 13 Dec, 2013 @ 2:41am 
Copy them back to modsave :P
sidewinder_G 12 Dec, 2013 @ 11:15am 
Thanks but I did the mistake of copying the modded into the save file so I am royally screwed :) Thanks again anyway.
lyravega  [author] 12 Dec, 2013 @ 5:08am 
I don't know if you can use your "modded" characters back in vanilla. Modded characters have their own separate folder, if you are launching vanilla, you will not see those characters, neither can use this mod. If you are doing so (launching vanilla), instead launch with mods, just with this mod, and you should get the pop-up.
sidewinder_G 12 Dec, 2013 @ 2:35am 
I tried this and from comments I gather that I don't need this but my two strongest characters are still nowhere to be seen in vanilla. Like I said, I don't get a pop-up. Am I doing something wrong ?
WaterFalcon 3 Dec, 2013 @ 7:04pm 
I tested this with "More pet skins" it doesn't seem to completly remove the mod dependancy but you can play your game without the mod active.
KuroiNeko666 2 Dec, 2013 @ 6:08pm 
I love too, damned required mod! HaHaHA. and I have instaled a compile with the same mod wich is required. I don't understand the reason for(sorry for my bad english); but now with your help I can load my save. Great Thanks...
