What LCE Save Converter is

LCE Save Converter converts Minecraft Legacy Console Edition saves from Xbox 360 or PS3 into the Windows 64 LCE format. It accepts Xbox 360 .bin STFS CON containers and PS3 save folders containing GAMEDATA, then creates a saveData.ms file and a thumbnail. The project says conversion preserves terrain, chests, items, signs, maps, player inventories, and the Nether and End dimensions. Compatibility depends on the source save: Xbox 360 saves through TU19 are supported, while TU20 and newer are not; PS3 saves through version 1.12 are supported, while version 1.13 and newer are not. The free, open-source Windows tool documents a Python GUI and optional drag-and-drop support. The GUI requires Python 3.10 or newer, customtkinter, Pillow, and two included DLLs kept beside save_manager.py. Its latest listed release is v0.5.0-beta, a pre-release adding PS3 support. The project uses GNU GPLv3, with separate license terms for the DLLs.
