Patching Base Game Class Errors
Posted: Fri Oct 05, 2018 4:49 am
Hi,
I just signed up as I was looking for some info and assistance.
When creating a character and answering the 12 questions, there are several errors and inconsistencies that give incorrect bonuses and items unsuitable for the class.
EG,
a class that is forbidden to wear Plate and Chain gets iron armour pieces,
Archers can get arrows but no bow,
a class with no short blade skill (EG Rogue and Barbarian) can get the ebony dagger,
These I can fix easily by editing the BIOGxxT0.TXT files for the Questionnaires and giving suitable, balanced items.
But is it possible to make changes to the actual classes themselves?
EG,
The Thief is Forbidden Blunt weapons, so cannot use a club, cosh, mace or staff? I find that offends my CRPG sensibilities! How do I change this?
The Burglar is forbidden Leather and Chain, but can wear full Plate armour? I'd like to change this to Forbidden Plate and Chain, and allow Leather armour. It's interesting to be in plain clothes while burgling but fighting in full Plate mail, but really...
Many Thanks!
