Hello Everybody,

 

My problem is this - I'm using the "Remove Area Restriction for Dustman Robes" element of the TweakPack, but what bugs me is the "old" description of the item in question, when it was still limited to the Mortuary. Is there a way to edit the description of said item?

 

I'm a complete novice when it comes to tweaks, hacks etc., so please be as descriptive and clear as possible.

Yes, with weidu, you copy one of the setup-*modname*.exe's in the game directory and paste it in the same folder, you then rename the copy as "setup-DustRobes.exe", and then you create a new .txt file in the same folder and open it with Notepad, resave is with the "Save As" command and set the name to be exactly "setup-DustRobes.tp2" (so it doesn't have the .txt extension anymore), then you copy paste the following code text to it and resave again, and then you run the .exe:
BACKUP ~backup~

Yeah, you need to of course make up the two new strings.

Yep, Jarno Mikkola. my Mega Mod FAQ. Use of the BWS, and how to use it(scroll down that post a bit). 
OK, desert dweller, welcome to the sanity, you are free to search for the limit, it's out there, we drew it in the sand. Ouh, actually it was still snow then.. but anyways.

WRITE_LONG 0x0050 ~new unidentified description~

It's SAY, not WRITE_LONG.
