Essential improvements
Import characters
Use CD music in English version
- These steps change the German CD version to use English text. This requires the German CD version (GOG.com has both).
- The intro and some minor game text will still be in German.
- To have German speech with English subtitles copy only
STAR.DAT
from the English folder.
- NPCs will have 50x their normal XP value when you recruit them, as the English version uses has a multiplier for all XP gained or required. This can be fixed by hex-editing STAR.DAT, but must be done from a save from before the NPC is recruited to prevent excessive stat increases.
Game data
Save game data location
- Generated characters are stored in
<path-to-game>\GAMES\CHARS1.DAT
; this file is not needed for loading save games (characters are stored in each save).
- In-game settings are stored in each save rather than shared.
- Exported diary and character sheet files are saved in
<path-to-game>
- Diary and character sheet data is saved to file when Print to is set to File in Game Options (F3). To print from within the game see printer support.
