A lot of people are demanding for a guide on how to change a weapon's damage. Well, here it is, the Do-It-Yourself-Noob-Proof-5 step-All that and a bag of chips- Guide.

First things first, you need Fable Explorer, related link in the Wiki. Install it, browse it a little, scratch your head and let's begin.


Step ONE Open Fable Explorer, and look for OBJECTS in the scrollbar to your left, as seen HERE.

Step TWO Double-click OBJECT and scroll down until you find the weapon of choice. In our guide I'll be using a Steel Katana as an example, as seen HERE.

Step THREE Ok, after selecting the "OBJECT" item in the scrollbar to the right, you should see a list with tables and some other mambo-jambo. What you are LOOKING for it called "CWeaponDef", so scroll around until you find it. Now, right under that, there is a refference to CDefDataEntry followed by a number. HERE is an example.

Step FOUR Click the blue link right under it (called "Links to (GameBINEntryID)") and another panel emerges. Scroll down and find the Damage Entry. A number should be under it. THAT'S the weapon's current damage, divided by 10.
So for example if you want the weapon you are editing to havea damage of 500, change this value to 50. Example is shown HERE.

Step FIVE After you changed the value, click the "Apply changes" button and than either save the game.bin manually (right click, Save As), or in the FE Menu, click Action / Save Mods and Run Fable.



VOILA. You can experiment with other changes also, you can basically modify anything, from the weapons Augments to Augment slots,it's name and description, to swapping it's MESH (a bit trickier) and what-not. Hope this helps.



Quote:


If what you want to do is increase the damage of Skorm's bow, or any ranged weapon, then you need
to change the Shot entry.
In FE, scroll down past the Object list to the Shot list.
Click the + sign, open SHOT_ARROW_SINGLE_LEGENDARY, click + sign again,
Open HitThingDamage(may be different if you have an old defxml, but the number in it will be 24),
Change the 24 to a higher number:30 for 300 damage, 40 for 400 damage, etc.
Apply Change, then Save and Run.

Ok, Explain this error message.

Unhandled exception has occurred in your application. If you click Continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue. APPLICATION NOT FOUND.

When I try modifying the weapon damage, this beauty pops up. Explain Please.

Okay, when specifically does the message pop up? When you click on the text box, when you try to edit the contents, when you click apply changes, or when you click Save mods and run Fable.

Read the site rules, as well as individual thread rules, stickies and announcements, and use search, or you will have smartassy or exasperated ownage rained down upon you by the site's crack team of mods and admins. Also, you can find all you need to get started on modding here.

Well then I have no clue, unless you put in some horrendously incomprehensible number, or you're running a different directory, but then you shouldn't even be able to see the files on the upper left corner. What value did you put in?

Is there anything I should do with the original .bin files for the game before I start screwing with the mods?

Btw, all files for fable are installed in program files/microsoft games. FE, is installed in it's own folder, INSIDE the initial "Fable" folder that of which is in the microsoft games directory.

Back them up and keep it somewhere you won't forget.

That has already been established. All original .bin files are backed up on a completely separate hard drive, on a completely separate tower.

Then there's nothing else to do with the original .bin files before screwing with mods Razz

It happens to me all the time, just go ahead and play. It doesn't do anything.

Once upon a time, there lived a jolly old guildmaster...yeah I killed him.

APPLICATION NOT FOUND.

Is a phrase associated with application association problems. There may be some external application call being made and no application available or registered to deal with it. Like a call to Wscript not working if the Windows Script Host is disabled? Is java needed to run this? or C++?

Not sure if it helps but, this same thing happens to me, however after roughly 5 seconds it runs anyway.
