My first mod attemot, Ego Draconis eyes-style Finally we are source hunters, should look not like usual person ))))))))))

Congrats, nice work.

amazing

Can you tell me which element corresponds to the companions or henchmen? I don't see anything resembling that in Character.xlsm.

I've run into a wall here- beyond that initial success with Jahan, nothing I change (like the AP cost or description of a spell, or a different character's stats, etc.) has had any effect.

But to answer your question, you'll find Jahan and Madera in the 'character.txt' file as entries Henchman_Jahan_Mage and Henchman_Madoc_Paladin respectively. I noticed when editing Jahan that his scores are all one less than the actual stats- so if you put a '4' in perception he will actually have 5. [Not the xlsm here; from the folder with all the xlsm files you can go to generated>data>characters]

There also appear to be a couple (like just two) other henchmen there, *possibly* vestigial bits of the other two companions that didn't make it into the game upon release. They're called Alfred the Fighter and Frank the Archer, anyways.

You can make the changes in the xlsm files, too, though. If you make your changes there, open the excel file called 'all' afterwards, which contains nothing but a big 'generate' button. Clicking the button will cause all the excel files to update their corresponding text files. I don't know if there's any reason to do that rather than edit the text files directly, though.

As for the actual henchmen you can recruit in the Hall of Heroes, they don't seem to be in that character file. I could swear I saw a list of them and their stats when browsing through some other file, but for the life of me can't remember which- and checking again now, can't find that list again (if I did see it in the first place).

how do you actually access those files you mention? I tried the toolset but I couldn't find them, nor I could import my customized assets, or understand how music and sfx work (especially their 3d placement in the world)

What exactly are you doing? I've messed with my 4 player mod a little bit trying to get Jahan to have 1 stats with stat poitns. I've managed to get him to all 1 stat points(and can change whatever else in characters.txt with no issue). All I've done is include the characters.txt into my mods folder. Here's where mine is.

Example: G:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Divinity - Original Sin\Data\Public\4Player_-_Test_1ddd6993-6d9b-4e71-a437-1195dd217cf6\Stats\Generated\Data\Character.txt

I still have no idea how to add free stat points to a character to spend though, same for traits. Any idea in that regard?

Did you copy the whole Characters.txt from the main mod, or did you create an empty one with just Jahan?
If we need all stat entries to be in Characters.txt to work then it'll conflict with other mods (and the main mod) so it'd be pretty useless

The whole thing, or at least that is what I did, I didn't try it with just him. I'd assume you would need the whole file though. This would certainly conflict with other mods using this file, but not the main mod. I mean it overwrites it, so how is that conflicting with it, if it uses it's data but modified?

It makes official patches ineffective, as it overrides anything the patches might change with an older version of the data.

I was excited to see an unpacker but the link seems to be dead - would it be possible to provide an updated link? Thanks!

Ah my bad, I was updating the tool with the FBX->GR2 exporter and forgot to upload the new version
The link should work now.

relase the mod please

This folder setup worked for me too, and poking around a little I found the the character creation stuff under ...\Divinity - Original Sin\Data\Mods\(mod name)\CharacterCreation

There's a properties.lsx file there that let's you modify starting stat points, although it seems to break the default classes and your characters start naked.

Henchmen are there too and again editing seems to work but there's some weird side effects where scrolling past a modded henchmen in the recruitment screen suddenly starts looping instead of going through all them.

All I really want to do though is find out how to make all my characters move faster (and maybe speed up combat animations too).
