JustABitAgroed 21 Posted July 26, 2018 (I have no modding experience so please forgive my ignorance.) (Hopefully, this is the right place to be asking. Sorry if it's not.) I was wondering how to take specific items out of the game. There was a mod that I tried recently and loved but it gave the player some really overpowered items that I wanted to get rid of. I deleted the mdl, mdx, tga, and txi files from my override folder, but the weapon would still show up in-game without a texture, so I tried deleting all mentions of the weapon from baseitems (with Notepad) and then the game wouldn't start. Any assistance rendered would be highly appreciated. Thank you for your time. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Quote I was wondering how to take specific items out of the game. I believe items are linked with .uti, and if they are equipped to PCs or NPCs, there would be an entry of them inside the .utc\inventory. Try deleting the .uti linked to the particular items, perhaps? 🤔 Quote Thank you for your time. Pleasure on my side! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I... have no words for this. Don't do that. If you want to remove an item from your inventory, the easiest way would be to use the KOTOR Savegame Editor. 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JustABitAgroed 21 Posted July 26, 2018 Never mind. Sorry. I wasn't understanding what you guys were saying. I think I've got it now. I'll give it a test run and find out. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JustABitAgroed 21 Posted July 26, 2018 That did work. Thank you for your help. If I could trouble you guys for one more thing, I opened the uti files with KotOR Tool and found out how to edit them (I'd prefer to balance the weapons rather than take them out entirely), but when I tried to save the file and stick it in my override, it crashed the game when I entered the area. What am I doing wrong? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kexikus 995 Posted July 26, 2018 You'd have to tell us what you're actually editing as that could be any number of things making your game crash. However, one thing to note is that editing the .uti will not change items you already have in your inventory. It might work if you remove them with the Save Game Editor, change the .uti and then add them back with the Save Editor, but I'm not sure. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm trying to change the stats of some ryyk blades that were added into the game. One of which spawns in the same locker as Zaalbar's Bowcaster, the other on Chuundar's person. (Sorry for the very late reply BTW, I've been working on other projects.) Edit: I may have found the problem actually. If baseitems isn't changed and just the uti files are, will it crash the game? Double edit: Yes! That did the trick. Thanks for your help guys. I really didn't want to give up on these. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JCarter426 1,215 Posted August 31, 2018 If you're only editing a few items, you shouldn't edit baseitems.2da. That will change every other item in the game of that item type. What exactly were the edits that you say crashed the game? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Basically what happened was I didn't realize the files I had were incomplete/I had a bad install order for them. Plus the weapons are unique and don't use a vanilla item type, so I think it should be fine. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JCarter426 1,215 Posted August 31, 2018 Ah, if it adds a new item type and that line is not in baseitems.2da, then it will indeed crash the game. Carry on. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
