    1. download http://www.terra-arcanum.com/station/downloads/arcundat.zip
    2. undat c:gamesarcanumarcanum3.dat c:modding
    3. copy mesgamelevelname.mes and mes userlevelname.mes. to c:gamesarcanumdatames
    then copy rulesgamelevel.mes, rulesuserlevel.mes and xp_level.mes to c:gamesarcanumdatarules
    4. use wallpad to edit the files

    gamelevelname.mes = show all in game auto level schemes for you or NPC good to know who you edit.

    userlevelname.mes = here you can name all your owen schemes from 1 to 49

    gamelevel.mes = here you can edit all NPC and auto level schemes skills and status. exapt for level 1 that is always the same. don't know what will happen to higher level npc :sad:

    userlevel.mes = edit you own made auto level schemes

    xp_level.mes = change the xp to level up and add more levels I think I lower mine a lot so I can test the auto level schemes at the crash site at once save time so you know if you done some thing wrong
    ---

    here is my exampel for gamelevel.mes of Virgil
    ---

    {91}Virgil {in 15, heal 8, gun_smithy 5, pe 12, firearms 12, in 19, gun_smithy 7, st 12, heal 20, pe 15, firearms 16, pe 18, firearms 20, electric 7, chemistry 7, in 20, st 16}
    ---

    Have fun :smile: This took some time to me to figer out. I hope all like it.

    Hey Zewy,

    Mind if I take your post and turn it into an article in our "articles" section (with all the credit to you, of course)? I'm betting lots of people would like to know how this works.

    Mu-hah-hah... that scheme could be easier.

    "{91}Virgil {in 15, heal 8, gun_smithy 5, pe 12, firearms 12, in 19, gun_smithy 7, st 12, heal 20, pe 15, firearms 16, pe 18, firearms 20, electric 7, chemistry 7, in 20, st 16}"

    could easily be 'downgraded' to :
    "{91}Virgil {in 15, heal 8, gun_smithy 5, firearms 12, gun_smithy 7, st 12, heal 20, firearms 20, electric 7, chemistry 7, in 20, st 16}"

    Without ANY differences in CP's spent.

    'least, I think it worked that way. Been a while since I played around with those leveling schemes. (Not that I had any way of trying it out, ofcourse. But playing with such things in notepad was just too much fun.)

    Now why did I post this again ?

    -Gerko, who just got his copy today. (Yay!)

    --- IS Wrong you can only change xp numbers you can't add levels It is coded in level.c or some ting and I can't find that file or code in cc++ so it is dead end for me.

    I was experimenting with it and now I get how it works. When you meant heal 8, you increase your heal skill to level 2. The counting starts on level 4. I know there is a better explanation as to why by 4 but I haven't figure that out. Help would be nice.

    I told you in a other post that it is 4 then 8 then 12 then 16 then 20 for level 5 but you still need in of 18 to get heal 20 (level 5)
