Can't get Leto to work

[Wide And Nerdy]

I just want to change the Pre-gen character's name from Wrathful Berserker to another name. But the changes don't save. It looks like they save but they don't actually save. Any tips on how to get it to work?

You need to save it as a new guy, those preset guys are hard wired into the game

Actually the solution in case anybody finds this in search of the same problem.

Menu > File > Open >

Under Files of Type select "From List in file"

That will make the xxxxxx,sav file visible select that one and click "Open"

Then scroll to the bottom of the list to Module IFO. and select that.

Then select the name of the player you want to edit and click OK.

Make whatever edits you want to

Menu > File > Save As >

Under Files of Type select "From List in file"

That will make the xxxxxx,sav file visible select that one and click "Save"

Then scroll to the bottom of the list to Module IFO. and select that.

Then select the name of the player and click OK.

And you've successfully edited a player record.

Sorry, I find these instructions confusing.

I open a save-file "000005 - Edit" and there is a "player.bic" file which Leto can edit.

But your instruction of how to 'save new' file is the problem, the "From List in file" part.

Screen shots would help.

Tried again and got "Out of memory while expanding memory stream" error message at step "Then select the name of the player and click OK."

What's wrong?

I'm sorry, I don't remember. Its been 18 months since I posted this and I was never an expert on this I was just fiddling around and figured it out. If the instructions aren't working for you, I don't know what to tell you. I don't have the game or Leto installed to be able to produce screenshots.

When using Leto, it is important to know and understand the exact steps.

1. Go to Menu > File > Open >
(This will give you a File Explorer interface.)

2. Navigate to your saved game folder (e.g. Neverwinter/saves/savedgamename).

3. Opening the saved game folder, you will see "player.bic." This is a BIC file, but not the file you want to edit. Going to the bottom of the interface, you will change the "Files of type:" field from "ITP files" to "From List in file." When you do that, you will see a xxxxxx,sav file. Select that file and click on "Open."

4. You should now see an interface to "Select resource." Scroll down to the bottom to find the resource "Module" of type "IFO." (It is probably the last item in the list.) Select it.

5. You will now see a branching list which includes the name of your character, and underneath it is your henchman. Since you are editing your character, select your character and click on OK.

6. You are now looking at your character's information. Make whatever edits you desire.

7. To save your editing, return to Menu > File > Save As >
For the "Files of type" field, you are going to select "Into List from file." Once again, the xxxxxx,sav file will now be visible. Select it and click on "Save." You will be given a warning prompt (that you might bork your save file). Click "Yes" to continue saving if you have faith in your editing skills.

9. You will see the "Select Resources" dialog, again. Scroll to the bottom of the list to find the "Module" resource of type "IFO." Select it and click "OK."

10. Here is that branching interface, again. Select the character you just recently edited and click on "OK." It will take a short amount of time for Leto to save the data back into the list.

Side Note: Leto apparently no longer allow the editing of items/inventory using the default editor. That may be due to Beamdog using a different method to track items. The Advanced Editor still allows you to dig deep into game variables, but it is unsurprisingly complicated and not recommended for the average person.

I hear that Pretty Good Character Creator[neverwintervault.org] can help.
