Hello,
Just a quick question, I was wondering why there are no WoTL exclusive items available on the patcher?
I wanted to place some WoTL move-find item stuff in my patch.
Cheers Argy
The WotL exclusive item IDs require more than two hex digits (one byte) but there are only two hex digits (one byte) available in the Move-Find Item section. That limitation comes from the binary file that stores the data, BATTLE.BIN.
Thank you Glain, therefore I take it that we will never see the WoTL exclusive items in the Patcher (being able to place WoTL items on generics) then? :(
Oh well!!
You will not. At least unless someone does some serious patching updates.
However, I accomplished this feat for my patch, but I had to edit over several less interesting items to make it work. You can take a regular sword, for example, and copy over all of the attributes of your favorite rendezvous weapon and it will work. The only exceptions are items flagged as onion knight or female only. I haven't tested it, but I would not be surprised if editing a female-only item would still make that item female only, but that's about it.
