How do I edit weapon descriptions in DX?

Post by GamerX51 »

I just reinstalled shifter again for my next play through of DX. Shifter is one of the most awesome mods ever, but Yukichigai's weapon descriptions need some work.

After some consideration, I decided to try and fix this myself rather than pester Yuki about it. But I've run into something of a brick wall in my efforts; I've got all the weapon descriptions fixed the way I want them now, but I can't seem to get my changes to show up in-game. :/

How can I get my changes to show up in the game?

You need to recompile Shifter's DeusEx.u with your altered classes. Do you have the entire uncompiled package?

Well, I've got Hexy's extractor and decompiler, but How do I use it to do what I'm trying to do?

<Edit>Never mind Jonas, I figured it out on my own. It turns out I wasn't altering Yuki's modified DeusEx.int file, and that was causing the item descriptions to default back to the originals. :oops: <EDIT>
