Ok, i have read that you can change what the quests give you, like the amount of exp and the other stuff. How do i go about doing this? Thanks!

Re: Quests
Search Threw the textblocks for the reward part of the quest that you want to change. For Example if you wanted to change the amount of exp the first neutral quest gave you would change the addexp interger, add new abilities etc.that are linked to the completion of the first quest.. I have never tried this but I am pretty sure how it is.

Re: Quests
the quest organizer in nightmare might be of some help... me and atma didn't have that luxury when we did it, so what *I* did, I dunno what he did when he modified my quests, but I started off lookin at the grey lord's greet text, went to that text block, and worked my way through until I found the one that gave the reward. same with the other alignments. pain in the ass... and the worst part about it was we did it with Mod8, so we couldn't just GOTO a text block. next, next, next, that sucks when you're at 1 and the text block you're lookin for is 500. :) but... enuff rambling. yeah check out the quest organizer in NMR, it should be a great help.

Re: Quests
if your using a new version of redux it's real simple for the alignment quests. just use the quest organizer and it lists links to all of the text blocks for the first 4 alignment quests.
And if you looking at changing a different quest .... lets say the meditate quest. you'd have to goto dhelaven in the monster dat and click on his greet text. you'll get a list of things that looks like this:
dragon:179|help:180|hope:9020|agree:9021|reward:9025|ready:9028|return:9050|
text block then links to his greet text at 178. to edit the quest you'd goto text block 9025 (which is what you ask him to give him the diamonds). 9025 then links to TB 9027 where the item check is made to see if you have 50 black diamonds. if you have all 50 it links to TB 9023 which is the text saying you should take a rest blah blah blah ask me return. so return is the command issued to recieve the exp linked to TB 9050. open up TB 9050 it links to 9046.. open TB 9046 up .... does a bunch of class checks which basicly is figuring out who gets meditate and who just gets the 5k exp. examine this TB to edit the amount of exp given and could also change what classes and at what lvl they learn meditate.
Although on some text blocks the list is really long so it might have a second part or even a third or forth part in the case of the 2nd evil quest when returning elf heads to Balthazzar.
Hope this helped or at least got you going in the right direction.
