Smile Helpful hints for novice modders

1. all files can be placed in a folder called mods placed in KB data folder. Before modding make your life easy and any files that you wish to mess with should just be dragged from the KB folder to the mods folder. Anything in the mods folder will take preference over the main KB folder. If anything goes very wrong then you can just delete it from the mods folder.

2. *.kfs can be modified with winzip 12, *.atom, *.lng *, *.ui & *.txt can all be viewed and modified with notepad

3. *.ui exstension files are for modding your user interface

4. the file hero.txt can be modified to give your hero more stats and runes when you start a new game

5. *.atom, *.ui files are stored in the kb\data folder, *.txt files are stored in kb\sessions\base\ses folder and *.lng files are stored in kb\sessions\base\loc_ses folder

6. take a bit of time to look at these folders and do not be afraid to mess around with the mods folder. This game is actually fun and easy to code.

7. to mod the interface just find the name of the item you are looking for in the *.ui files and rename your new texture or picture to the exact same name and drop it in the mods folder and the game will start with whatever you put there.

8. to modify font sizes yon need to copy the fonts.cfg folder from the data folder to the mods folder and increase and decreas font sizes

Hope this helps
