I can't wait to play it. Only then will I start on my kits. It may be a while, because I haven't yet played every 'legal' kit in BGII, and I do like to be thorough... ------------------ Time is an illusion. Lunchtime doubly so. Epona of The Laughing Hyenas |

LOL, I hadn't even played a 3rd of them before I started using custom kits. The in-game ones are mostly crap. I mean berserker? Wow, so he has 1 advantage and 1 disadvantage. And the wizard slayer has 2 advantages and 1 disadvantage. If u want a REAL kit u gotta have at least 5 or 6 of each IMHO. There's no point in waiting for ToB if u wanna make kits. I don't think ToB will overwrite many 2da files, certainly not the ones to do with the kits because there is only 1 new kit- the Wild Mage and that is already included in the 2da files. The 2da files that will be updated are XPCap.2da and maybe a few others, but as I say I think the majority will be left alone. Besides, u can always make a copy of the 2das u edited and then copy/paste the extra info for your kits into the ToB ones after insallation. The Final reason there is no point in waiting cos of the 2das is that, the 2da editing is only about 5% of the kit making process. Most of it will be making spell effects to apply resistances, special abilities and bonuses etc. The dialog.tlk file will be overwritten, sure, but there are only 2 entries to be made for each kit- one for the kit name and 1 for the description. And then u put the reference numbers into kitlist.2da. This is a 30-second process. [This message has been edited by Vaskez (edited 05-27-2001).] |

It would be nice if someone made an easy-to-use editor for making kits, it would allow everyone to make kits, however it might also flood the web with crap kits.

Nah, there's no point... that is basicly what u do anyway.. u just type in the stat modifications and what abilities the kit gains at what level, except that u do it in a text editor instead of some fancy-ass utility. And there is already IEEP for editing spells. Some people are never satisfied. Everyone should just be happy that they don't have to hex-edit .spl and .itm files just to make items and spells! Has anyone actually bothered to go to teambg and thank TL for developing and constantly updating IEEP for example? Instead ppl just say "someone should make this, someone should make that...". I'm not having a go at anyone in particular, just pointing out a few home-truths .
Neb u are right, hehe the net would get flooded with crap kits and remember, the more there is of something.. the lower its value.... |
