    And I thought it was self-explanatory...
    Sigh.
    1. Download maxhp.zip.
    2. Unzip maxhp.exe anywhere (but if you unzip it to ToEE game folder, it will be a bit easier in step.3)
    3. Run maxhp.exe. Three buttons:
    "Patch" - injects this hack into temple.dll. Push da button. FileOpen dialog pops up, locate temple.dll (if you put maxhp.exe in game dir you should see temple.dll right away), select it and push "Open". If everything went ok, you'll get messagebox saying - "Patch successful!".
    "Restore" - removes hack from temple.dll. Same steps as above.
    "Exit" - closes maxhp.exe.

    Good stuff, Drifter.

    Just one question: Which version of the temple.dll does this patch? The official one, or moebius' modified file?

    The only requirement is dll from patch#2.
    This little patch doesn't overlap with moebius' changes, nor does it require them. Which means, it works on both official and moebius' (since they both are from patch#2).

    This is such a time saver!

    So far this patch is working great and with no discernable bad effects. Thanks Drifter.

    this should be made into core co8 stuff.... its tiny, its useful, and it can be used to activate and deactivate the change safely and easily.

    Ya know...

    ...it strikes me that Drifter is so knowledgeable in these matters. I wonder if he's a nomad, or simply a wanderer, or perhaps a little bit of both?

    That is NOT true. Monsters do not get max rolls. In fact NPCs have a variable for their 1st level as well. So while you always get max hit points on level 1 all NPCs with multiple class levels have to roll for their hit points for the level 1.

    yap... it just sometimes seem like they are getting very good rolls because sometimes you fight extremely tough monsters for their CR... and the ones that get bad rolls, they are forgotten.

    Drifter-- It's great that your able to hack the .dll, but I won't be using this hack (I will use the 16+ cha bard spells fix though) I don't believe that you should be able to cheat the game - fix it by all means.

    BTW were you just on the irc? If so come back please, (I have some questions for you)
