    Sorry if this has been asked before, but is there an NPC editor, a tool that works well to edit NPCs, or an NPC Editting tutorial? I'd like to try an all-NPCs game, but I'd prefer to be able to tweak their starting stats, skills and feats myself.

    I'm not sure how you could start a game, open doors, etc without one PC, but you can change their stats, class, feats etc in the protos.tab just find the NPC by name that you want to edit and give them the things you want (you'll need a protos editer for this found in downloads forum) If you're not sure how just copy stuff from other NPCs from what ever stat you're changing into the one you're editing, or just post here again.

    Thanks. I actually meant one PC, then recruiting the rest of the party from the NPCs. I'll look for the protos editor.

    As you'll doubtless find, the NPCs are numbers 14000+ in the Protos.tab, while the stats are columns 101 on.

    By the way be carful adding extra feats, because some classes need the extra yellow feat at level up but if you've already given them everything from go then... :flamed:

    Thanks for all advice. :)

    What I hope to do is set them to Level 1, set all Primary stats to 16 or so, give them each two logical feats, and that's about it. I'd like to advance them from there using the NPCs LU as PCs part of Liv's mod.

    I really don't like their current designs.

    Well if thats all your planing to do then you'll be sweet as, I changed Spugnor (or whatever his name is) to have spell focus feats and changed/gave Zert weapon focus longsword and that was about it. Just make sure to back up you protos first in case of spelling mistakes or :tombstone
