Hey guys! I need help!
I always get the message "Error: Attempt to add nonexistant file misc.txt to archive" when I try to run my batch file to add misc.txt to the patch. What could be wrong?
I already have the subfolder "data\global\excel" in my Diablo II folder. Did I leave out something?

Do you have your misc.txt file, your Patch_D2.mpq file, and the MPQ 2k program all in the same folder?

Thanks. Now I know that I always have to keep track of the subdirectories that I use.

Another question for Axalon: I used the morphing gems plugin and they are very nice. But now the graphics simply say "Perfect Amethyst Right click to make Perfect Topaz". The attributes of the gems are no longer listed. Is there a way for me to "hide" the morphing message and then show the gems' stats?

Hi Chineseman I'm glad that some of your problems are being solved ... I have never used the morphing gems plugin, so I can't answer your question about it until I check it out for myself, if I do, I'll let you know ... maybe someone else 'here' already knows the answer *hint hint* and can help you out more quickly later, bro ....

This is the biggest problem with morphing gems...and I don't know of any way to overcome it. But I'm going to move this thread to Expansion Mod Making in case some can help you fix this.

If you get comfortable enough with modding, though, it would be a relatively simple piece of work to create cube recipes that will allow you to morph one kind of gem into another kind of gem. That would, of course, get around your problem.

Anyway, moving this to the Mod Making forum...

For my latest mod (for LoD/expansion), download Version 1.1 of Sanctuary in Chaos

- Or for old stuff (for classic D2), visit my orignal mod site at www.planetdiablo.com/sanctuary

Well, jbouley, I think I can just take your advice and modify cubemain.txt to get my gems morphing with a different cube recipe.
Is there a limit to the number of recipes I can add?
I've noticed that in most expansion .txt's, there is sometimes a line that says "Expansion" in the first column. Of course, this has nothing more in the following columns, so I guess adding my own "separator", like "New Recipes" won't affect cubemain.txt, right?
In line with my first question, is there a limit to the number of armors, weapons, itemtypes, strings, etc. that I can add to the MPQ file?
Thanks a lot you guys!
