How is the value determined? Would someone mind answering my other questions?

[iNViSiGOD]

Ill assume your using nightmare correct?

[crucifytoascend]

Yeah, but even so I never really messed with anything that had spellcasting when I used to use a hex editor.

[MrBlack]

First off, what value are you talking about?

Secondly, what other question do you want answered?

[crucifytoascend]

I'm adding a spell casting stat to an item. I looked at the obsidian runestaff for assistance and see that it has +5SC, but in Nightmare, it has 115. Explain?

[MrBlack]

Bleh, Nightmare...no NO NO NO...Get it away!!! EEEEKKK!!!

No, really...I haven't used nightmare since Donut was in charge, and that was only to help debug

POS Software IMO

I'm not really sure about the 115, off the top of my head, I'm thinkin it might be the flag number that your talking about. But, after looking it up, 115 is a flag for a DescMsg. This is the message you see when you type 'stat'.

So, I'm not sure what your looking at. Maybe someone that uses nm a little more can help ya out better...

Do you know anything anymore?

grin

[MrBlack]

Heh, I know about hexing...I used NM so long ago I can't even remember...and to refresh my memory, I'd have to open nm, which I have at home on my comp...but my power got shut off a couple days ago, so that's kinda outta the question

But, you got a point...I'm gettin out dated...I need to get back into mud...

[Tristian]

It's like I'm talking to an old man or something. hahah

grin.

[MrBlack]

Heh, I feel old...
