How awful are the mini-games for professions in this game?

[Lampros]

I've seen quite a few threads on the mini-games for the professions being irritating - especially in regard to the Bard. How bad is it really? This is one of the main things that's making me hesitate in terms of buying.

I looked a bit into it before replying, but sadly the basic classes only have Willpower 10 without any obvious modifiers to it and there are no helpful results when searching for (crtl + f) recruits, merc, recr and Willpower has like 380 entries thanks to the tavern dlc xD

ROFL! ;) THanks anyways - the forging change, if I can get it to work, is already a huge bonus.

For the recruits, I guess I can wait till the Impatience mod is updated and turn it off the minute I get the recruits I want (most of the rest of the cheats in that mod don't appeal to me at all).

Oh, wait. So you did find where the Willpower is said to be at 10? Maybe I can find the right entry and add 15?

So change Willpower from 10 to 15 below [the last line, that is]?

You could set it to 15 and see what happens.
"id": "Swordman"
..
"baseSkills": [...
near the end you'll find
{
"value": 10,
"attribute": "Willpower"
}

that# there for every class

Can you please help me with this? I have been at this for over an hour but still can't get it to work. Basically, I am stuck in this extraction step - nothing extracts:

"To do so, go to the "Quickbms" folder and in the file explorer console type:

quickbms.exe Shiro_Games_PAK_script.bms ../res.pak ../Extracted



This will extract the data contained in res.pak to the “Extracted" folder"

I opened the file explorer console (the black screen), and it kept saying some sort of error?

1) So in your wartales game folder you should have copied the Quickbms folder to
2) Into the Quickbms folder you should've copied the "Shiro_Games_PAK_script.bms" from the other link.
3) Create a new folder "Extracted" (in your wartales game folder)

4) Double click the quickbms.exe
5) Select the Shiro_Games_PAK_scripts.bms
6) Select res.pak
7) Select the Extracted folder (open it/double click) and press save

Edit: To reimport the changes it seems you got to
1) Quickbms folder and open reimport2.bat
2) select the res.pak in the wartales folder
3) select your Extracted folder

(maybe it requires the reimport.bat you'll have to try it out)

Okay, my edited, but cannot reimport the changes.

When I open reimport2.bat I cannot find the res.pak in the Wartales folder?

1) Try to start Wartales.
If the game starts, the file exists

2)I messed something up in the steps.

i think after step 1 you have to select the Shiro_Games_PAK.bms, then the res.pack, then the folder/data.cdb in the folder

Okay, I will try that way.

Hmm, something went through but now it just crashes, saying "uncaught exception" ;(

I think this stuff is beyond me... :(

Try just changing the smithing stuff and set the willpower things back to 10.
The smithing stuff worked for me without crashes.

I am reinstalling. Maybe later. I guess I will wait for that guy's mod to update :(

Reinstalling was a bit quick. you could've just verfied the files :/
(or if needed deleted the res.pak and then verified)
if you want to try out things in the future make a backup of the "res.pak" that's the only file you modify with all the modding.

Can you try and see if the 15 Willpower thing works? Perhaps my system doesn't reimport properly?
