MoM Modding: Hero Special Abilities

[I like Serena]

Fixed in Eljay's files (missed this before).

Bit of trivia I just figured out: in the hero save structure, byte 5 sometimes has bit 0x40 set; this bit is not described in Eljay's files. I just figured out what it is: it indicates a female hero.

Very cool!

Sincerely,
Eljay

I would like to move the skill Prayer Master to the Both list, instead of the Mage list.
Where can i find the three lists (or there is a tristate flag for every skill where can I put W,M or B)?
How can I change the assignment?

This lists is inside procedure in the magic.exe. the changing the length of lists is very hard. If someone decide to do so, it must have a full list of changes before. this work must be done all and completely. So, i need a full list of changes.

I see. Thank you anyway.

Not exactly. The list is:

• Both: Charmed, Luck, Noble.
  
• Fighter: Agility, Arms Master, Blade Master, Constitution, Leadership, Legendary, Might.
  
• Mage: Arcane Power, Prayer Master, Sage, +2.5 magic per level.
  

Note that that's only for randoms, it's perfectly possible for fixed abilities to ignore this; a number of heroes have fighter abilities and magic points, and Roland has prayermaster despite an utter lack of magic abilities.

Fine, thank you.

Can we mod the list where the skill belong?

I.E. I would like to have Prayer Master to the Both list, instead of the Mage list. Can be done?

Hello FrancoK

I just stumbled over this very old thread, and I have a solution for your 13 years old request on my hard drive. I myself have modded the Leadership skill to be available for all types of heroes and after a quick look in magic.exe I figured out how to do the same for Prayermaster hero ability. I have started three games and checked with the Tweaker all heroes which were random generated and now also the Fighter Heroes got Prayermaster ability.

Since you are a modder on your own, only the hex edits I made for both skills. 


; Apply to MAGIC:EXE with FILESET or a Hex editor
; All Hero Types (Warrior;Mage[new!] and Any Type) can get Leadership as a Random Skill

Nice dude! I hope he sees your reply.

Crazy to think that a question that old can be answered by the mad lads on this forum : )

I really hope he notice it, because his last visit was a few month ago.
