Using Bannerlord modding tools is extremely easy
1) Navigate to the unit you want to edit.
2) Enter desired values in a skill box (from 0 to 999)
3) If you wish to add or replace items - choose equipment roster (some units only have one roster), choose a slot appropriate to your desired item type, and choose new item from a dropdown menu. Proceed to another slot, next equipment roster or to another unit.
4) When you are happy with your choices - click "submit and download XML" button.
5) This will download an XML file, named "spnpccharacters.xml", on your computer.
6) Navigate to \Mount & Blade II Bannerlord\ Modules\SandBoxCore\ ModuleData, and replace existing "spnpccharacters.xml" file with file produced by this app. I suggest backing up your original file, so that you can revert your changes.
Things to know:
- The file you get is fully compatible with original vanilla
Bannerlord.
- It was not tested with mods that heavily modify your original game
files.
- It should work in most scenarios, unless you have directly removed
some of the items or units, or changed id-s that are used in
"spnpccharacters.xml".
- XML structure of original file is preserved.
- The only side-effect is that during conversion, "comments" from the
original file are lost, but this does not affect your game whatsoever.
- Item0,1,2,3 - are slots for weapons and shields.
- All other have self-explaining names.
plans for the future:
As this purely frontend app is inherently limited by not being able to
access file system and by some performance limitations, I will not
update it with new features, instead I want to concentrate my efforts
on creating a desktop modding app.
Desktop version will have advanced features, ability to make
consecutive edits, modify items, party templates and some more.
