On a search on these forums I’ve seen reference to a patch that disabled skills for one class to work for another. The example given was + to fire bolt on staffs giving the skill to other classes. Does anyone know either what patch did that, or better what they changed so that I might be able to reverse it? If some one could help me I would be very grateful. ------------------ Speak Softly and carry a big sword (or two)

Ok, it appears it was patch 1.09 that changed this, does anyone know if it was only bins that were modified or could .dll’s be modified in a patch? For what little I know I would guess that, only patch_d2 would be modified, is that right? If so then you could change back whatever bin file was changed? Thus no hex editing (I’m hoping).------------------ Speak Softly and carry a big sword (or two)

No this would need DLL editing, it was a change of the *effect* of a magic code. And it only affected amazon skills. And I don't think anyone has any idea how to do this (although if they found the right spot it could be as simple as skipping a jmp)

Thanks for your reply; well if it only affected Amazon skills then this is not what I was really looking for anyway so you saved me countless hours and possible trip to the hospital. Although, you have opened another question, if one was able to find this thingy (shows my lack of knowledge) and jump it, would you then be able to jump other classes? ------------------ Speak Softly and carry a big sword (or two)
