Trying to make weapons

[Nonsico]

Hey everyone ive been trying to make matching +5 scimitars for my drow since ive beat the game a few times i got bord and decided to cheat. I exported Twinkle drizzts defender and just motified the to hit, damage, name and what alingment can use it (now only evil) but every time i load up the game with the weapons imorted on my guy as soon as the loading bar goes to full the screen goes black and i have to restart my computer any ideas, the name is only 7 letters long on each so i dont think thats the problem

Sorry Mate, could be that there are errors thaat you have entered, try making the item from scratch. where did you get the editor from? plz tell me

Sounds like some fairly simple changes?
I always use the console method to import items because i seem to have less crashes that way.

Try using another sword as the base of modification, and import via console command. Make sure the item is in the "override folder".

ya its in the override file ill try another sword and get back to you i got the editer from www.teambg.com my second favorate bg web site from back in the day but it seems they changed the format from how it used to be and its not as good as it used to be now kinda confusing actualy but anyhow its under a link on the left hand side that says programs for devolpers its called item studio you may need some other programs to go along with it, i hope it works better for you than it did for me

Do you have the visual basics components? I would assume you do since you can run IEEP.

Try baseing your Scimitar on the Scimitar +3 'Waters Edge' I know there are no problems with that, but I have never tried basing a weapon on Drizzt's blades so I couldn't rightly say weather there are or arn't, although I can see no reason why there would be problems.

I wonder what trigger his "friend" to show up in later chapter if you have his item? And will his "friend" show up if your character is holding a modified version of Drizzt's items?

I think it's atatched to the name of the scimitar in some way, probably a script when you reach a specific place in the game and it triggers of the name of the item. I have found that Drizzt's mithril chainmail seems to be unchangable as I have tried many times to base items on it and even if I so much as change the descriptions just slightly it crashes the game. Thats why I'm fer thinkin that his scimitars could cause the same problem.
