Why not use Angurdaval +4?
Or switch to the plain Answerer +4

Lord · 06-25-2003, 11:38 AM

Answerer is too slow, and I would like my fighter to use the +5 since it deals more damage. You gotta remember, every point of damage counts

Of course, everything goes wrong for me, lol. I installed it and get an error during initialization that COMDLG32.0CX cannot be loaded or is out of date. I did a search for COMDLG32.0CX and found 3 files by that name. I don't understand what I'm doing wrong. Am I missing something?

You mean IEEP? Well there was a patch there IIRC.

Lord · 06-25-2003, 07:20 PM

I am completely lost on this. I selected ToB and got the choices:
Spell Maker
Item Maker
Store Make
NPC TBG Maker
Infinity Addon Patcher
Dialog Fixer
Dialog.tlk Editor.

Where do I go to edit the Angurvadal +5? I don't see a file for a readme, so I'm not sure what to do, although my guess would be the item maker.

I don't know if this is safe, but at http://www.idi.ntnu.no/~joh/ni/download.html
there is a program called Near Infinity that seems to do the same things as IEEP, and it might even be IEEP for all I know, but it's got a different name. Is this a 'safe' program to use?

LennonCook · 06-26-2003, 02:28 AM

Near Infinity is, in my opinion, better than IEEP. The interface is actually useable... it takes a little while to figure out how to edit Items with NI, but it isn't too hard once you get the hand of it. [img]smile.gif[/img]
IEEP is wierd. Everything about it is wierd - I would recomend not getting it, when NI is easier to use to do the same things. And the extra package you need to use it works with alot of other things, aswell.
So, yes NI is safe. Very much so.

Here's the thing, I downloaded Near Infinity and Java since it says that it's required to run NI, and then I burned it onto a CD and then opened it on my computer that has BG2 installed on it. However, I still cannot open the NearInfinity.jar file, so is there just another way to edit the weapon using IEEP? I seem to hit more using my Sword of Balduran than using Angurvadal+5 since my 'to hit' adjustment is 2 or 3 higher than if I use Angurvadal+5. But then again, the Sword of Balduran affects less creatures than Angurvadal+5. Can someone give me instructions on how to edit Angurvadal+5 using IEEP?

LennonCook · 06-28-2003, 08:06 PM

Run the Java2 Runtime Environment first to install it. Then run NearInfinity.JAR, it should work... you may have to point it to the key file if you have more than one Infinity Engine game installed.
You will only have to install the J2 Runtime once, it will work after that so long as you don't uninstall it.
