H -- glad you're still here. I saw the ShipBuild function is used to turn off debug functions in the k_inc_debug.nss script. Maybe Bioware decided to go one step further and integrate that function into the debug functions themselves. So we have the...  [Read More]

Here's my first impressions of what would be necessary... The first thing you would need to do is open up spells.2da. You said you want Force Lightning to the ultimate power so you'll need to make it 3rd in the line of Shock powers rather than 2nd....  [Read More]

Probably everything in the Events section of NWN Lexicon is suitable in KotOR though not all events will occur with .uti files. It's a good place to look too. [Edit] And it doesn't appear that .uti files can receive Events. Only creatures, placeable...  [Read More]

gameunlimited - You are absolutely right -- that is exactly how spells.2da should be handled. And yes it is easier to manage spells.2da that way. Plus you can 'decompress' spell.2da from V2.b to V2.0 file format and work with it in a simple text edit...  [Read More]

Hi T7 -- Let me clarify my meaning by providing an example. Let's say you're creating a new .uti -- and you want that item to have property 10 "Cast Spell" when it is activated. Now you run into the problem of "what spell?" If you...  [Read More]

I'd like to address an elephant in the room. A lot of people want items that invoke spells or special force powers. To do this, it seems to me that we're always going to have tweak spells.2da and/or some pre-existing script file -- making it very di...  [Read More]
