    I have a workable inventory hack that I've tested on Car Arcanum but before I try posting it, I would like to find out if anyone would be interested, even knowing that it has three problems.

    1) Does not work with games in progress. You will have to start a new game.

    2) It triggers the Helena Sent/lockpicking snafu.

    3) There is a random chance of timidity in one of your NPCs. i.e. Sogg, LV30, running from a sewer rat.

    Let me know.

    I dont like bugs in patches, it drives me barmy. I'd rather not have it and have a stable game than deal with unpredictablity.

    What kind of inventory hack? Maybe something with multiple boxes in the trunk, perhaps? Being able to sort your junk is a necessity in this game, for me anyways.

    In retrospect, I probably should have mentioned a few good things about this before I listed all the bad. Oh, well.

    No on the multiple boxes. It's just the regular Arcanum inventory hack that has gotten a generous reworking to include the new merchants, make the inventories more merchant specific, radically increase the availability of hard or impossible to find items, and REALLY! boost the amount of treasure that's available.

    Also - under construction - is a variant that will make the Hand more deadly. After Chris' dungeons, the Hand is a bunch of wimps.

    As this is a hack, and Car-Arcanum gets glitchy with anything in the rules folder, the problems listed are unavoidable. A DAT version of the final form of this is also underway but has so far been unworkable. The most popular version of this hack will be the one that's incorporated into the DAT.

    Hope this clarifies any confusion my initial post may have caused.

    I Like these kind of hacks because it allows you to see what is actually out there. I also like the sounds of Sogg running from sewer rats. That sounds quite funny.

    I would like to take a look at that hack. I think it sucks that our character can't carry infinite stuff, can you please send it to my mail?
    And can you tell again the pros and cons of the hack?
    Thanks

    Everyone in this thread is lucky I can't ban anyone. Including the people from two thousand goddamn six.
