If so how would I go about doing this? raptor Sun, 3rd Apr '05, 1:17pm I do not know of any mods, if there are none listed in Sorcerers.net's page about IWD2 i doubt there are any noteworthy at least. I know it is posible to add or at least change feats in the game, so it is posible. But many of the feats are hardcoded (aka they are not posible to alter, like powerattack, cleave, expertice), so only those that gives you generic stuff like skill bonuses, ac bonuses and similar is posible to alter. In other words, it would be a rather boring list of feats.

I believe it's pretty much impossible because the core executable would have to be modified to add new ones (or fix existing ones, like Improved Initiative - otherwise Ex would have fixed it). madcaddie Sun, 3rd Apr '05, 2:49pm What about adding something like "innate spell" that gives you innate abilities? Shrikant Sun, 3rd Apr '05, 7:04pm What exactly do you want to do? You mean the F12 button from where you activate feats like Power Attack? You can always use DK2 to add various innate spells. raptor Sun, 3rd Apr '05, 10:26pm Most "combat feats" like powerattack and expertice already adds just a "spell-like ability" to your "special" button. Example is Expertice, you find it in SPIN276.SPL if using a program such as winbiff or nearinfinity. I do not recal exactlly where i found the normal skill feats. I will be looking. On a similar note, it always anoyed me that they didnt just make *one* feat in D&D for picking any 2 skills and gain +2 bonus to each, or any one savingthrow +1 and one skill at +2 bonus. Instead of having a multitude of feats just for adding that. Akin to Skill Focus, wich gives +3 in any one skill. they could have made a similar for two skills with +2 each. As such It should also be posible to just replace most of the "skill bonus feats" with other feats giving "inate abilities" but not that interesting for me, since most of the existing "inate's" are hardcoded, so its almost imposible to add any interesting new feats from teh rule books. madcaddie Mon, 4th Apr '05, 5:53pm thanx for the replies yep I can add innate spells with DK2 but they disappear after I use them and don't recharge with rests is it possible to mod the class and kits so they get some more innate abilities? if so how would I go about doing this thanx for your help. raptor Tue, 5th Apr '05, 9:35pm Easiest might be to craft an item that gives you the wanted abilities. A ring or potentionally a potion or such that gave you the listed abilities permanentlly. If you want to get more adventuring, you might want to try to replace some of the feats that give skill bonuses. I do not remember how to do that. madcaddie Wed, 6th Apr '05, 8:06am Thanx for the help is their any links tuturials on modding items/kits I've looked but can't find anything. raptor Wed, 6th Apr '05, 5:49pm http://www.forgottenwars.net/?page=tutorials&PHPSESSID=350a86bec31ee8a815ae3b0b0168a69a Theres a few of them there. Been a few years since last time i looked for tutorials. Someone else would probablly know of more of them than i do. |
