shadowkeeper?

Post by CopperWater »

I like playing a half-orc and i have heard some stuff about Shadowkeeper. Can it make my character look like the orcs that you fight? What else can it do?

ShadowKeeper contains a database of all creatures, spells and items in the game. You can use it, by loading a savegame of yours, and then it lets you modify your characters in every way.. Also in appearence.

Yes you can make your character look like any other character in the game. Why don't you try it for yourself. ShadowKeeper

However, if you do it you won't have a picture for your character in the area where you equip them with items and say you equip your character with a longsword on the playing screen it won't show them with a longsword. Since orcs use axes it will just show that. So there're so downsides to it.

you know, I tried making an Elminster character the other day using shadowkeeper. I changed his appearance to look like Elm, but after I got in the game and started to play, it crashed my game. Any theories?

IIRC Changing the appearance to "non normal" icons can cause the game to crash. These are all the icons that aren't labelled like male elf thief or something. The other icons (monster and specific character) don't have options for two weapon attacks or other combat options, so if it's required to do so, it'll usually crash the game.

Hope this helps.
