A chance to add more premade chars?

[Mr.Wolna]

Hey I know that the vaulue is hardcoded, but I looked into the f2.exe with a Hex Editor.
I made an Image from the Section:

I found the directory + filename in ASCII. Eg: premade\combat
The file changing work great
Between the directory Lines are the old F1 VID. I delete the vid btw. I change it to 00...
And it work great, no errors or else. I think the VID have no function.
Next I found 3 Hex Vaulues: From top to bottom C9, CA, CB. In decimal this is 201-203. This are exact the frm IDs for the character Portraits. Changing is no problem.

Now the Problem:
I found at adress 10AED4 the character counter. I change the value to 4 and add a complet character set. With path,name,id,....
My problem is that the F2.exe, crash when I change ingame to the fourth character.
I am not very good in Hex, but I wrote the same struktur like the original, but the engine cannot find my char.

So what you think about it, is it possibly to change this?

Greetings
Mr.Wolna

Maybe you should post this in Timeslips sfall thread as a feature request. If anyone can do it, it would be timeslip.

It would be an interesting idea to have more than 3 premade characters

 

[Mr.Wolna]

Yeah i thing this, too. But Timeslip never answer to my posts

More work than it´s worth because everybody wants to built his own caracter.

 

[Wild_qwerty]

Yes and no, yes everyone wants to build their own character but the premade characters description fields can be useful for telling part of the back story behind a mod.

It can also be good eye candy.

I*m shure there is a possibility to add a 4th or 5th, char my only poblem is, that i am not very good with HEX.

As i wrote, you have to edit counter, and add new chars!

You could create a patcher that rewrites the game's memory.

Why not just replace the old ones with the new?

 

[Mr.Wolna]

because i will make new ones not replace an odl char,

@Per the problem is that it can't get it to work because i am not good with hex as i said. So i found out that is possible to add new chars, and i found out the place of the counter and the frm ids but for the the rest i need help!

I think timeslip can be do this easily but as i said he never answer to me xd^^

 

[Mr.Wolna]
