                            DIABLO 2 ITEM CREATOR

                            Basic DOS Application


  This is not an item editor. Instead, it creates items in your MAIN Inventory.




  Place the item creator in your Diablo 2 SAVE directory. You can then make

a shortcut to it by left click and hold, and dragging to your desktop and

selecting 'Create Shortcut'.  Then select the shortcuts properties, select

program, and check the box "Close on Exit".



To use, your main inventory must be empty. You may have equipped items, weapons,

armor, potions, etc.  You may also have items in your stash or in the Horadric

Cube. The Cube must be in your stash.


First off, you will see a current list of your charactors, up to a maximum of 20.

Select the one that you want, a backup "(name).BAK" will be created.  If it already

exists, you will be asked if you wish to replace it.


Next, there is a short list of questions about the attributes of the items that

you wish to create. You can do a lot of experimenting here as the possible comb-

inations exceed serveral thousand.

You only have to answer the question once if you elect to save the value for all

items that you plan on creating.

The skills attribute gives you one additional choice, to increment the value for

each new item.


Once you have answered all of the questions, a scrolling list of all items that

can be created will be presented.

Select an item and press 'Enter' to create it.  You will be asked if you wish to

create another.  If you selected 'no' to any of the start up questions, the

question will be asked again for the next item.

You can continue adding items to your inventory until it has no more space.

I suggest that you create the larger items first, and the smaller ones will

fill in the empty slots as space permits.

When there is no more space, or the space is too small for the item that you

want, the Item Creator will tell you.

If you select 'no' when asked if you wish to create another item, the items

will be saved and the program will terminate.

If for some reason, the save game becomes corrupted, you can restore it by

deleting the '(name).d2s' file, copy the '(name).bak' and rename it to

'(name).d2s'.

As with all programs of this type, you use at your own risk.

Enjoy!!
