it is strongly suggested to also have a backup of theses text files. You can use a subdirectory or simply make a copy I.E. classes.txt.org or the like.

Editing text

Please make sure you use a quality text editor. There are problems with notepad and wordpad. Yes, you can use them, but you'll run into problems such as overwritten file extensions, odd character sets as well as file encodings. Please see our Utilities suggestions in Utilities->Text Editing.

In most of the name.txt files ## is a comment marker. This means lines starting with ## are ignored.

Classes.txt

classes.txt contains information for races and classess applicable to PCs and creatures.

## of spells. Each level row can contain as many spells as you want/need.

##
## example: when false: DomainPrimary=Spell|Spell|Spell|Spell
##
## Example: when true: 
##
##     Primary1=Spell
##     Primary2=Spell

## need to insert a blank || entry between levels with granted spells.

DomainSpellRate=1

## OPTIONAL ## Set the minimum spell level for Domain Spells 
DomainMinSpellLevel=0

## OPTIONAL ## Set the maximum spell level for Domain Spells
