Hello guys!


How can I change the +1 LOS radius bonus of the Speculum artifact to +2?

The spyglass have the same +1 bonus, which makes the other artifact pointless.

(The Speculum stands on 3 legs, it is bigger, heavier than a Spyglass. It really should give +2 radius in stead of just 1.)

Speculum (0x0E43C6) and Spyglass (0x0E438A) are both coded using an EBX+1 (43). You would have to get some empty space to change it for 43 43 (shortest +2 possible).



Second Post:

I managed to remove Ring of the Magi as a combination arti and replace it with Armageddon's Blade:
0x4c857 -> 6a 0b 6a 11 6a 1d 8d4dec 6a 03
0x4c875 -> 80.

But I don't know how to make the new Armageddon's Blade require 4 items instead of 3. When I try to replace the code above with a jump to free space, the game crashes on startup. BTB2's method (replacing b9 06 00 00 00 with 6a 06 59 6a 17) also didn't work when I tried it. Does anyone know how to add an extra item to a combination artifact's requirements?

Update: I got it working. There's 8 nop (90) bytes at 0x4c8c8, so I used that as empty space for a short jump:

0x4c85b 6a 06 -> eb 6d (jump 109), 8d4dec 6a 04
0x4c8c8 90 90… -> eb 06 6a 17 6a 1d eb 8d (jump -115)

Everything marked bold applies only to my case (Arma blade, 4 elements with these arti IDs) and everything marked in Italics is brand new code.

Okay, so I have Eagle Eye learn level 3/4/5 spells and 85% chance at all levels. (Not 100% to leave a little for Eagle Eye specialists and artifacts.)
Are there any other ways to improve Eagle Eye though?
Making it learn spells DURING combat, not after?, or learn spells from creatures?

Alternatively Eagle Eye could always be 100%, but then Eagle Eye artifacts needs to be removed and 7 Eagle Eye specialists need new specials...

You could make it give hero extra knowledge, work as a spell damper, magic channel, etc.


Second post:
I figured out how to edit Interference % of Plate of Dying Light: 0x1d40c8 in Hota.dll.


Third post:

Out of all Factory buildings, only Mana Geneartor's cost is not defined in Hota.dat. Does anyone know where the cost is stated (most likely in Hota.dll)? I want to change it to 4 gems, to mirror Brimstone Stormcloud's cost.
