I have a problem. I've done a book for someone and everything works smoothly except for the equipping effects selected: +1 wis +2 int.

When it hadn't worked and everything I tried failed, I even copied the effect directly from other 100% working Bioware items and it still didn't work. All the data entered are obviously the same except for which stat to change and how much. I don't see any possible reason for it not to function properly. There are no additional effects to interfere with. I've been doing various customs for some time, but I've nevered experience such a thing.

I hope someone knows the case, but should you wish to look at it and try it yourself I'll send it to you via email.

I'll be most thankful for any help.
In the year of Our Lord two thousand and second at the seventh day of December the saint Ganeo did from heaven descend and unto the noble lord Lucas such he spoke words, lowering the holy arm in which he held the chalice: 'Pious paladin and beloved son of mine. Take ye the very chalice and upon his flowing streams found ye this noble order'. This said, the saint extended the holy arm in which he held the chalice and bade him drink. When the noble lord Lucas received the last drop, the saint raised the holy arm in which he held the chalice and blessed the order.

How do you equip a book? I guess items in one of the quickslots donīt count as equiped items.

Right. Even when I defined it as a wand or a scroll it still didn't count. Any possible way to set this straight without scripting?

I think for an item to give 'equipped effects' it has to be (held) in a weapon slot or one of the clothing slots. You could make it a ring; that should work.

Right. I hoped to avoid this vause the man wanted it as a book, but I think he'll swallow the pill and accept a cloak or ring :) Thanks :)

The pen is mightier than the sword, they say, so make a book that can be equipped as a weapon. +1 to hit/1-2+1 crushing damage, 10% chance of inflicting terminal boredom on victim.

Shall I write memoires then? :D

I was thinking more a Tome of Roman Legal Logic. But then I'd have to raise the chance of terminal boredom, I guess.

Roman Legal Logic isn't that bad......
Medieval legal logic is much more of a brain-waster

If this is to be used by a mage alike, then why not make it a shield?
Or you could make it a secondary weapon (but then no more slings/darts) with a +8 thaco off-hand bonus to compensate.

Mediaeval is quite nice as compared to modern one. Esp. legal. Designed solely to prove white is black and black is white...

"...solely to prove white is black and black is white... "

And thus man was run over at the next zebra crossing. I prefer the legal logic used during the Salem Witch Trials myself, "these bored girls say she's a witch, so we'll throw her in a lake, and if she drowns, she is innocent!"
