i have added 70 new gems to my mod with their own original gfx but i have encountered some problems with them

First and most irritating problem i have is that the properties that i gave my new gems continually increase every time i start up the game. So say i put a new gem that gives +3 to fire dmg ....the next time i load up the game it shows up as +6 fire dmg ...then next time +9 fire dmg etc...

has n e 1 else encountered this problem and has a solution to my problem

i have another problem ...though not as important and i guess i could figure it out myself though it would require a lot of time .. i was wondering if ne 1 knows which properties gems can and cannot have ..because i found out that some of the properties i gave my gems did not show up at all ...if no one knows what properties they can/cannot have i might as well write up a reference sheet ...but i thought i would ask b4 doing so ..to save myself a lot of time and agony :P

thx in advance

I once believed.
Others looked to me for strength, for my faith was a pillar in the house of the Elders. I once believed in something greater than myself; I believed that the faithful would be rewarded and the evil would be punished.

I believed the Prophecies of the Final Day to be mere superstitions-and that even if they had any credence at all, as our ancestors believed, the events they spoke of would never come to fruition in out time

I was a fool.

For the first problem, put a 1 in the compactsave column of misc.txt for all your new gems.

For the other, I've no idea. What didn't work?

LoL its a wonder that my mod actually worked .... i followed ur adive to put 1 in the column ...i looked in my misc ...no existing column ....so i thought maybe u got it wrong and it was in another txt file ...searched other files relating to gems ...no such column ...so i loaded up my original misc file ....and there it was ...looked back to the one i edit ...and it appears i must have deleted this column some how ....amazing that it didnt crash the game

thx 4 the info will test it out and see if it works now

if ne 1 has info about what properties gems can and cannot have i would be very pleased ...if not ..ill go through all the properties and write down which ones work
