TL:DR
I’m using the X-Mod from Grim UI merged with my own edits to the game. Simple things like
Stacksize 9999
157 Devotioncap
More Championspawns
Less Maxresist
etc.
So I just did some simple .dbr editing. Do I need to update something specific when I edited everything with 1.1.6.0 files, and 1.1.6.1 hits, or do I not need to care?
When a patch releases, I always update the X-Mod’s gameengine.dbr just to be safe.
I’d personally recommend that you keep track of the changes you’ve made and compare them with the patch notes. This will give you an idea of what files you’d need to update, if any.
