If you have a hex-editor, such as UGE, which I use, you can change a byte in the item code to make the mystery oil (and any other "essential" item non-essential, at which point you can sell or drop it.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

Lost Sheep (Guest) (1 posts) Oct-26-04, 02:23 AM (Pacific) 2. "RE: Only by hex-editing" Thanks for reply could you tell me how to do this ie which byte in item code?   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

Scary (286 posts) Oct-26-04, 07:24 AM (Pacific) 3. "The last one" The last byte: change it to 0. Specifically, each item occupies eight bytes in a character's inventory. All "essential" items (i.e., undroppable) have a value of 64+ in the last byte, which makes them undroppable. It's been a long time since digital electronics in high school, but if I understand correctly, the designers used the second highest bit (value of 64) in that byte to indicate whether an item was essential. If that bit is positive, the item cannot be dropped or given away.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

Scary (286 posts) Oct-29-04, 03:29 AM (Pacific) 5. "RE: The last one" LAST EDITED ON Oct-29-04 AT 03:30 AM (Pacific) Look for this series: 83 01 02 00 0F 23 03 40 Change the 40 to 00 (Note that the second to last - 03 - is actually probably 01 by now, as you have only one key left.)   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

Scary (286 posts) Oct-30-04, 05:52 AM (Pacific) 7. "My bad" Oops! Somehow I conflated this post with the chrome key post in my mind. That's the hazard of not re-reading the entire post each time I make a comment. For mystery oil, look for this sequence: 92 01 05 00 0C 65 01 40 Again, change the "40" to "00" and it should become droppable/salable. Incidentally, as it should be apparent from the "0C" these are hexidecimal numbers, so they may display differently if your hex-editor uses base-10. In that case, the sequence would be (doing the conversion in my head): 146 1 5 0 12 101 1 64   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top
