    Hi all. Got a fairly annoying problem with my Blade, in that when I activate Offensive Spin it grants him a THAC0 "bonus" of -127. Yes, that's right. He can't hit a lousy peasant or cow except on a crit. I'm aware this is probably a compatibility issue between some of the plethora of mods I've installed lately.

    All I'm wondering is if anybody knows what to modify in the spell's effects, using e.g. Near Infinity. The file is SPCL521.spl (assuming a mod hasn't renamed it for me). I can find the THAC0 bonus effect, and it says its value is set at 2 (which is the correct value). I have almost no idea what the rest of the stuff displayed by NI actually means. Can anybody lend me a hand, and tell me how to change the file to fix the THAC0 bonus, or give me an idea of what's wrong with the way the game's software is interpreting the file? As I said, the bonus should be a flat +2.

    Thanks!

    It's much easier if you use the Team BG IEEP program. It will actually explain most of the effects.
