I am making another Angelic set...

I want Angelic Halo to be a part of it. Can I name it this or not? I know with unique items you add the name of the item in the UniqueItems.txt into your patchstrng.tbl.

Do you do this with sets as well? (I think so)

Now can you have two different Items with the same exact name, or will it cause the game to crash?

In my new set I want to make an Angelic Halo, that is a real Halo that floats above your head.

But I don't know if this will crash the game, because there is already the ring named angelic halo.

Just wondering. Of course now that I think about it, it doesn't matter what I put in the SetItems.txt. I can anme it whatever I want in the patchstring.tbl. So I can have it called Angelicsethalo, and in the patchstring.tbl have it say "Angelic Halo.

Still an interesting thing to find out. Could save me a few entries in the .tbl file

I don't think that a item that is a part of a exist set can be a part of a other set.

You can use two Halo's. But don't use in setitems.txt the same name for it. Use a tbl-file to realize the name.

If every modder would have worry about crashes than nobody will try something and we would not have any mod.

It's the life of a modder.

It depends for me. If it is something I think 30 people have already done before then I post... Although this is one of thoise odd questions that most people haven't even thought about. doh!

Anyway, I'll avoid doing this for ease of work. Why create problems if I don't have too

I wonder why I always think of things back @$$wards like this. I think like that all the time. Maybe I should get into .dll editing. lol. Then this backwards path of thinking might actually help the modding community.

You shoul name it something else in setitems.txt and then, in the .tbl name it what you really want (angelic halo). Be aware that you can't have two set items of the same type (I once created a new set with a scimitar and it had the same mods as the one from the angelic set) unless you want it to have the sane mods as the other.
