Paldeck v0.16.0 Beta

Paldeck v0.16.0 Beta

This is a beta release of the redesigned Palworld Pal Editor for Palworld 1.0.

Back up the complete save folder and stop the game or dedicated server before editing. The interface and preset features have been tested locally, but the save parser still uses the existing compatibility layer; the planned parser rewrite is not part of this beta.

Highlights

• Rebuilt the editor as the Paldeck workbench with direct Pal box, Player, and Technology navigation.
• Replaced the legacy entry screen with a focused local save picker and recent-save shortcut.
• Added a fuller Player overview with level, owned Pals, technology progress, server roster size, technology points, and container references.
• Added persistent passive-skill presets that can be reused across different Pals.
• Added persistent active-skill presets containing both equipped and learned attacks.
• Added preset management, rename, delete, JSON import, and JSON export controls.
• Kept preset files outside the installation folder so installing a later editor update does not remove them.
• Improved technology browsing through level 80 with search, filters, contained horizontal rows, and corrected narrow-screen behavior.
• Improved language switching and Windows font rendering.
• Fixed active preset application crashing before the loadout could be written.

Preset storage

On Windows, reusable presets are stored in:

• %LOCALAPPDATA%\Paldeck\passive-presets.json
• %LOCALAPPDATA%\Paldeck\active-skill-presets.json

These files are not included in the editor installation and are preserved across normal upgrades.

Beta notes

• Always verify edited Pals and player data in game before relying on the save.
• Keep an untouched backup until the edited world has loaded and saved successfully in Palworld.
• Very new, unusual, or partially corrupted save structures can still expose limitations in the existing parser.
• Report reproducible problems with the editor version, Palworld version, save type, and the complete error message.
