Hello
I've got 1.5 CE version of Dungeon Lords
I've used that beta editor to add me some money , skills and some armor + weapons .
Now when i kill npc's ingame , i'd say that everything i pickup was that an armor or weapon has ??? in his description..
I wonder why is that so?

You have to identify any weapons found in the world (as opposed to in shops). You also have to identify shields, armor, rings, and trinkets.

I've never played Dungeon Lords so feel free to disregard this, but if the answer to that question isn't in the manual I'll eat my socks.

When you add items with the editor, you'll notice at the bottom of the window there is a section that says "Item Stats", and then there is a box labeled "ID'd". If that box is checked, you won't have to identify it.

You don't necessarily have to go to shops to identify items. To attempt to identify an item yourself, go to the inventory screen and make sure the item is not equipped. Right click on the item, and another window will pop up on the left. There will be an option on that window to identify the item, and a percentage that shows what chance you have to successfully identify it.

If you fail to identify the item, the percentage will change to a red 0%, and you will have to wait for a while before attempting to identify anything. As long as you see the 0%, you cannot identify anything (except for in shops). The advantage to identifying things yourself is that once you identify an item, all identical items will be identified as well, but the shop will make you pay to identify each item.

A little more to it

there is a little bit more to it you can still identify items even with the red 0% showing they are usually items you would have a 100% chance of identifying anyway or items u pay no money to identify in a shop such as daggers. I noticed this a little while back.

However, if you sell all of that item (from your junk and equipment) you will have to re-identify it the next time you get it.
