Hi all,
I have refactored the Rune Changer mod in a way that it does not require the KBMaster framework anymore.
Be sure to check the readme (included); there is a trade-off to getting rid of the KBMaster framework(!):
Code:
Rune Exchange (aka. Rune Changer) Mod u1
========================================

A rune exchange. It allows you to exchange runes to another type. The exchange ratio is 2:1.

It is based on the mod_17_Master_102_rune_changer.kfs, however this has been re-factored not to require the KBMaster (compatibility mod).
Read the update notes for additional changes.

The trade-off by using this one instead of the KBMaster version is this: since some files have been directly modified, there may be conflict(s) with other mods.
These files are:
 - items.txt
 - itextures.dat
 - logic_hero.lua

Credits are due to SayNt for the original mod.

Updates
=======
u0 - Improved the text in the dialog (and, consequently the Russian language files have been completely removed). Made minor tweaking to the code.
u1 - Several changes
 - Fixed a localization issue - the name of the runes were not displayed correctly in the last two exchange options (Magic rune).
 - Fixed a bug - exchanging a Magic rune would not not give you the expected Might rune.
 - The name of the mod has been changed to "Rune Exchange" - I think it's more appropriate.
 - It is no longer necessary to use the item anymore; the runes are exchanged instantly once you made your choice.
 - It is no longer necessary to open the dialog over and over again - after an exchange, you are taken back to the dialog where you were.
 - Merged the two script files into one.
 - Refactored repeated code sections into re-usable functions.
 - Moved code that is commonly usable (by other mods) into a separate script file (new_scripts.lua)

Usage
=====
 1. Start a new game or load an existing game.
 2. Wait for a short while (10 secs or so), and the rune changer item will be added to your inventory.
 3. Right-click on the item and select "talk". This allows you to review the offers and make a selection.
 4. Once you make a selection, the appropriate runes will be exchanged.
 5. Enjoy.

Installation
============
Put the mod_17_rune_changer_refactor.kfs file in the <King's Bounty>\DATA\MODS directory (if the directory does not exist, you need to create it).

Uninstallation
==============
Delete the file(s) you added during the installation.

This is for the 1.7 English version.

Note: if you wish to use this with the any of the other "refactored" mods, you need to make changes to a few files (I made it easy though)!

***Edit
The package has been updated. See the note(s) about u1.
