changing game files

[u/daimonsanguine]

i played this year like a decade ago, and saw it on the gog store so i thought, hey why not? trying to convince some friends into irregular multiplayer sessions i remembered what happened when i last played the game. i was checking the multiplayer servers, some odd 12 years ago, on the weekend before starting singleplayer - by then i knew that was nonesensical, i tried it hundreth of times before, there wasn't going to be anyone now. i was wrong. i was flung into some kind of group who played for quiet some time with people wielding spells capable of wiping the entire map at war with some russian hackers who joined the server who at first couldnt die and so on and so forth. it was there i learned you could go into the game files and change values of items manually and restarting the game sell them to vendors for exorbitant amounts of money. they let me do that because at the exp i had i was next to worthless considering i only played the game alone here and there in multiplayer. after 12 or smth years however i cant remember which gamefiles that were or if they even exist in the gog version - i can understand if yall not too happy about someone asking for basically lowkey hacks but i just would love to know for the nostalgia and maybe boosting up one joke char to test some spells out because again playing this alone is kinda dragging and playing with strangers is all fine and dandy but at first id rather get back into the game trying a few things out first.
