"BaneEdit bug?"
I started a new game and gave my group two Ruby Eyeballs (there are two listed in the editor's item list, so I got one of each). I edited the charges for each item to "one" (default is zero on version 1.1, which keeps the item in your inventory after you use it). Rushed to the basement (level two), and tried to insert both. The first one worked fine, giving me the message that one eye socket was filled, the other empty. However, using the second ruby eyeball gave me the exact same message as using the first one. Is there anyway around this?

1. "you found the prize"
it is a bug! i just replicated it. it seems i was using the item's name in the logic, so items with the same name always default to the item with the lowest item ID.

fix:

using a hex editor (i reccommend http://www.ultraedit.com, full working 30 day demo), open up your savegame.dbs file and go Search->Find. type in the name of the person who has your ruby eyeball and make sure "Find ASCII" is checked, and then hit "Find Next". then do Search->Find again, and this time enter in "A301" without the quotes. UNcheck "Find ASCII" and hit "Find Next". change "A301" to read "A401". save the changes. the next time you play bane you will have the secondary ruby eyeball.

hope this helps, enjoy your game.

Willow

2. "RE: you found the prize"
Thanks for your help. I've beaten Bane several times, and was just messing around with the editor. (Just so people don't get the impression that I'm a cheating low-life! ; ))
