What property do i need for -fatigue on armor

[aladarxp]

I created a nice set of armor but I was wondering what property or what i need to change so that the armor gives - to fatigue

In order to add the property, you must have the Blood Dragon Armor DLC installed. It does not exist outside the BDA DLC.

 

The property id# is either 90001 or 90002. Whichever is not - fatigue is + hp (5 hp per power level).

 

Also, in order to add the property, you have to edit the item uti file or edit the item in the savegame inventory.

 

How did I get this info? From the Black Templar Armor mod by Krayzie. He figured out the id numbers for his mod, all I did was open it up and look at them.

how do i go about editing the uti in the save game file? or adding that property cuz i do have the blood dragon armor

Here's a fairly easy way to do this:

Ok, let's say you want to make a new armor based off of the Legion of the Dead armor, and you want the property on it. Start off by starting a new module (or opening an already existing one. DO NOT modify the core game!)

 

1. Open up the toolset and select the Legion of the Dead armor from the items menu. Right-click on it and select "duplicate". Name the new item whatever you want.

2. Add whatever normal properties you want the armor to have, and then add 1 property that you will replace with the -fatigue. Make sure it is the last property on the list.

3. Export the armor.

4. Now select file->open file and select the armor you just exported. It will be a uti file, and the toolset will have told you where it saved the file. You will note that the opened uti file looks different than the item editor in the tool set.

5. Go down to propertylist and click the + beside it. now go down to the last property and click the + beside it. There should be 2 entries under it now: PropertyID and PropertyPower. Change the value of PropertyID to 90001 (or 90002, still don't know which is the right value), and the PropertyPower value to whatever -fatigue you want. Save the uti file.

 

Now all you need to do is the get item into the game. There are TONS of tutorials on that, so I'm not going to repeat the info.

 

Alternately, you can try to edit an item in your savegame using the toolset. Start by making a new save that you will be editing. That way, if you mess up, you won't ruin things. Next, run the toolset.

 

1. Open a save game. The saves are located in documents/bioware/dragonage/character/<your character name>. The file you are looking for is savegame.das. It will take a few seconds to load the savegame.

2. Look for the entry that reads SAVEGAME_PLAYERCHAR. Open that selection by clicking the + next to it.

3. Now open SAVEGAME_PLAYERCHAR_CHAR, and then SAVEGAME_EQUIPMENT_ITEMS. You will see a list running from 0 up to 12 or higher, depending on how much gear you have equipped.

4. Open each one until you find the item you want to edit. How do you tell which items are which? You should be able to figure it out from the fist line of each entry.

5. When you find the item you want to edit, open ITEM_PROPERTIES. Now the EASIEST way to add -fatigue is to replace an existing property with the -fatique. You do this by changing the value of one of the properties to 90001 or 90002. Then open ITEM_PROPERTY_POWERS and change the coresponding value to whatever you want the -fatigue to be.

6. You can add new properties instead, but I leave that for you to figure out.

7. The way to tell which properties do what is to open the itemprps.gda or itemprps.xml file. The property id's are listed there, with the property names. You will note that -fatigue is not in there. It is added in teh Blood Dragon Armor dlc, and is not listed in the core game resources.
