About LSV files

LSV files are often associated with game saves, particularly in titles like Larian Studios' "Divinity: Original Sin 2." These files store crucial game progress data, making it possible to resume gameplay from specific points. Despite their utility in gaming, LSV files pose challenges when it comes to conversion due to their specialized structure.

Converting LSV files into more common formats such as .txt, .xml, or even .json can be complicated. The primary hurdle is the proprietary nature of LSV files, which are not intended for frequent modification outside their native applications. However, conversion might be necessary for backup purposes or to analyze game data.

For those looking to convert LSV files, tools like Wine (when running on Linux or macOS) with the game editor, or Windows-based software like Microsoft Excel for data manipulation, could be explored. However, be aware that using Excel requires prior conversion to a compatible format first, such as CSV.

Important considerations include ensuring data integrity during conversion, as improper handling may corrupt the file. Users should be cautious of the potential loss of metadata or functional elements that are crucial for the file's original purpose.

Despite these challenges, Wikipedia articles on the game or game modding communities might provide insights or tools for those determined to work with LSV files.

Given the complexity, utilizing a reliable service like Convert.Guru can simplify the process. We recommend dragging and dropping your LSV files onto the Convert.Guru webpage for a seamless conversion experience, allowing you to convert LSV files to various formats easily and free of charge, without the headaches typically associated with these tasks.

The LSV Converter Story

The history of Convert.Guru began more than 25 years ago in California, when Tom Simondi published the most comprehensive database of file formats on his website. Before that, Tom had worked on Space Shuttle development at the Air Force Systems Command’s Space Division in Los Angeles. He is known as one of the top programmers of the late 1980s.

When Microsoft integrated Tom’s Filext database into Windows XP, it became the leading platform for analyzing and processing file types and formats.

Today, we use the latest technologies to analyze, process, and convert one of the world's largest collections of file formats. We are committed to developing the best LSV converter by continuously improving quality, usability, and reliability.
