I decided to try my hand at a bit of modding and have had some limited success so far. I have made a couple of minor tweaks to some of the masteries, but now I am having problems with adding a new skill.
I created the skill (which is basically a dual wield/ranged weapon booster for demolition tree), added it to the Demolition tab for learning, and everything looks right on the surface at least to me.
I created a an tags_skills.txt file in the sources folder with the skill description and tied it to the new skill description/name.
As far as I can tell, just by looking everything appears to be set up correctly, however when I go to the mastery tab in game and mouse over the skill, the game freezes and then crashes to desktop.
My best guess at this point is that something is missing in the skill that is causing the tool tip to not show up when moused over, leading to a game crash.
I have an altered tags_skills.txt file in the Text_EN folder in sources with the new skill added.
I have the skill in /database/records/skills/playerclass02 folder
I have the skill in /database/records/ui/skills/class02/ folder
I have the skill referenced in the /database/records/ui/skills/class02/classtraining.dbr file and the /database/records/skills/playerclass02/_classtree_class02.dbr file
not sure what I am missing that could be causing the skill to crash when I do a mouse over in the mastery tab on screen. Anyone have any thoughts?
Thanks.
