Urghhhh Bad inventory error

[Knight_B6]

I just made a set for a simple mod I'm working on (N00B ALERT *sirens*) when I open up my char file and add in the set, and try to get into a single player game, I can't join becuase of Bad Inventory Data someone, anyone plz help

Don't use a character editor to test your sets. What I did is I made a cube formula that changes a magic item into a set item. If there are multiple set items of the same type you may have to try it a few times to get the right one.

Here is my formula, add it to cubemain.txt

1 magic item + 1 identify scroll -> set item

numinputs......2
input1............any,mag
input2............isc
output............usetype,set
lvl..................100

You can usually get the magic item by gambling.

voltage, use mpqview and extract the data/global/excel directory. those are the txt files.

ok where is globel//data// thing? like i said i need a teacher i downloaded mpq file thiny from phrozenkeep wheres goble//data?

[NewbieModder]

Ok, I'll recommend something. get WinMPQ, it's much easier to work with.

[WarMage]

Voltage, its GLOBAL, data/global
you can get the most used txt files in your patch_d2.mpq, extracting them with some tool like mpqviewer
the usual path is data/global/excel/

[WarMage]

oh, and i really think mpqviewer totally sux
the tool i use is CV, if you would like to know where reply this

Theres plenty of good tutorials at the keep, try the idiots guide to mod making for starters and go from there. theres also a bunch of easy changes for beginers at the keep under resources I think the link is.
