Re: Making mods for Dominions II. [Basic editing/modding discussion.]
Editing a spell's stats would achieve the same goal as being able to remove them. Don't like Summer Lions? Change the cost to 500 gems. Mind Duel? Change it to 100 gems, and I suspect it will never again be cast in combat.

Re: Making mods for Dominions II. [Basic editing/modding discussion.]
As for weapon editors and such, I've one question related more to Dominions-PPP than DomII: Is there a comprehensive master list of all weapons and armor available in Dom-PPP somewhere, because the list given in the mon_edit.pdf was more of a guideline than a really comprehensive one. Would be nice to know.

Yes, "spell editing" would be a neat feature.
((If we can disable spells only, that is all good as well.)) |

Re: Making mods for Dominions II. [Basic editing/modding discussion.]
I know Im a party pooper but I think editing spells would be too far. I want people to enjoy the game but I dont want everyone playing different games.
Maybe a switch or a game-setting in the menu that would allow for a general raising of spell costs that use gems. That I would like.

Yes editing spells is a bit too much. But disabling spells is a must have if we talk about spells.
If we cannot disable spells, we cannot make good scenarios. |

Why not? If somebody would enjoy the game more with mind duel costing 1 gem instead of just fatigue, how does that bother you? |

Re: Making mods for Dominions II. [Basic editing/modding discussion.]
Disabling spells sounds good. I dont want to jinx Dom 2 before its even out but there were some spells which caused alot of discussion in Dom 1. I think we might have been happy with an option to just remove the use of certain spells that caused imbalance arguments. It would be a way to agree on a "temp fix" until a patch arrives.

I agree too. Disabling spells is the best what we can get and yes it is a must have as youve said. Editing spells is pointless, because if you want to make a mod, you just choose out the spells what you will need, and simply disable the rest. There is a huge spell arsenal in Doms II. so it won't be a problem.
