I'm planning to make a mod for DD, but I need to enter the DD editor. I have sent an email to Lynn about it. Here is what I and Larian wrote:

Hi all the great people at Larian Studios!
We are the biggest group in Denmark who makes mods. We call us "Danish Mod Corporation". We are two undergroups, which names is "The Mod Creating Group"/TMCG and "Murder Incorporated"/MInc. Everyone loves the Divine Divinity game, and all of us has bought it the first day it came out in DK =)
But now we have completed the game a few times, and it's getting borring. Can we get a DD editor (like an editor to make maps and such)? Because we want to make a cool mod to it (and ofcourse not making money on it). Please ansvar us as soon as possible <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />


- Danish Mod Corporations' head leaders, Kasper Færch Mikelsen and Martin Wulff.

Hi Kasper and all the people at the Danish Mod Corporation!

Many thanks for your interest in our company and our games.
Your nice words are very heartwarming for all the people who participated in the development of the Divinity games.

But I am afraid we won't be able to help you...
We would like to, very much, but the build environment is way too complicated for this.
Hope you understand us.

Still, we think it's great that you suggest this, if only we could help you... :-\

Warm regards and have a nice weekend,
Lynn

Then I sent another email to them:

Hi Lynn...

I looked at almost all the files on the 3 cds and all the game files, but I can't find anything I can use, but I found something very strange..
It's a file called: "divinityevent.dat" and it contains some very interesting things (you can find the file in the \Run directory) It says something about "Drop Console", "StartEditor", "Switch Editor" and such of things. I think they are the missing commands in: "keylist.txt" because there miss some menu numbers in that file. Then I tried to place some of the things from "divinityevent.dat" into "keylist.txt" but i't won't work, because the game overwrite the file every time I try run the game <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/disagree.gif" alt="" />
Can you help me with this??

- The DMC team

And I have not got any ansvars yet, but I hope I'll get it soon.

But does any of you know how I can find a good editor for DD?

I don't hope so!
But do there exist an alternative editor or some tools I can use?
Or maybe I could get something from Larian?

If you read this thread. You see why they can't release an editor.


Not in the mood for cheese?
That excuse has more holes than a slice this fine Gorgombert!
