Sorry, perhaps it's my procedure, by I actually can't find the directory you noticed me... In my MPQ Viewer, the only files that are located in a similar directory are data\local\cmd\eng\default.key data\local\cmd\eng\defaultdebug.key  Perhaps is there a method that I haven't find to explore the patch_D2.mpq with MPQ Viewer...Excuse, I'm not sure for the words I used... ------------------ "Ne sois pas si défaitiste, comme tant de jeunes démons.

Tu es intelligent, astucieux, tu as des principes, de l'initiative. Secoues-toi un peu! Tu pourrais réellement avoir une chance."

No, this file is only relationned to the english version of the game... Does the 1.09d version of the game modify anything in the tbl files system?------------------ "Ne sois pas si défaitiste, comme tant de jeunes démons.

Thx a lot for your mail KieferHub, but I can't download the file you sent me cause it's too heavy for my poor connection  Well, I'll try the other way, but I don't unterstand how I can use MPQ2K to extract patchstring.tbl And the tutorials don't seem to explain the method, but I'm gonna look better!------------------ "Ne sois pas si défaitiste, comme tant de jeunes démons.

Thx all of you for your help! I'm glad that skilly moders like you (almost skillier than me) are helping beginners so quickly! I guess that as I will encounter problems doing my own mod, I'll often went on these forums!  ------------------ "Ne sois pas si défaitiste, comme tant de jeunes démons.

I can't find a tutorial that explain me how to extract a file with MPQ2K?  Perhaps is it noticed "Inside MoPaQ(at)", but I can't find it in the tutorials...------------------ "Ne sois pas si défaitiste, comme tant de jeunes démons.

hmm normaly the mail i have send to you should be about 6X KB large ...but well try this to get the file out of the patch_d2.mpq download mpq2k then copy the patch_d2.mpq to the folder of mpq2k. Open up a dosbox. Goto the folder of mpq2k. Then write the folowing: mpq2k e patch_d2.mpq data\local\lng\fra\patchstring.tbl now there should be an file called "patchstring.tbl" within the mpq2k folder.

Hello guys, it's me again. Sorry KieferHub, I made a mistake and thought the file you sent me was 4,5Mo  I finally succeed in downloading it, but when I opened it, I thought it was complete (unique items, runewords and many other things was lacking...). So I try the method you gave me with MPQ2K (that I couldn't find in the tutorials ). I works correctly, but my patchstring.tbl is still the same! Why? With such a patchstring.tbl, I can't train in doing mod with "The Idiots Guide to Modmaking" coz it's necessary in it to rename Manald Heal...------------------ "Ne sois pas si défaitiste, comme tant de jeunes démons.

There are three string files to look at.Patchstring.tbl is in patch_d2.mpq (v1.09+) Expansionstring.tbl is in d2exp.mpq (v1.07) String.tbl is in d2data.mpq (v1.00?) If you can't find your string in patchstring.tbl, look in the other two. Information in patchstring.tbl will always supersede earlier versions in the other two files. Most strings in expansionstring.tbl are for LoD of course, but there are a few strings in there that replace earlier versions from D2 Classic.

Ok, so that's why... Thx for help! Is the path to extract these files the same that for patchstring.tbl (*.mpq data\local\lng\fra\*.tbl)?------------------ "Ne sois pas si défaitiste, comme tant de jeunes démons.
