UW2E23.EXE Readme file.

UW2E23.EXE is a character editor for the Ultima Underworld II game.

Please send your feedback to me through compuserv 71140,633 Terry Orr.

HOW  TO USE IT:

Put the file UW2E23.EXE in the sub-directory where you have the PLAYER.DAT 
file you want to edit (NOT THE DATA SUBDIRECTORY BUT RATHER THE SAVE1 OR 
SAVE2 ETC). Run the program. That's it. Now run the game and your character 
should be as you edited it. Always make a backup of you player.dat prior 
to editing just for safety sake.

I sugest that you keep values down to a reasonable level since I don't 
know what the game does if it sees super high values.

Items 68, 69 and 70 represent the Runes of Magic available in your Rune bag.
These are 8 bit bytes which each bit representing a particulay Rune as the 
following example for Item 68 (Runes A thru H):

Bit     Rune    Value

7       A       128
6       B       64
5       C       32
4       D       16
3       E       8
2       F       4
1       G       2
0       H       1

So, if you want only the A Rune you would set the value to 128. All Runes 
would be 255 (just add up the value for the Runes you want). Therefor, if
you want all Runes (A thru Y) you would set rows 68 thru 70 to value 255.

Let me know if you figure out the "unknown" bytes so I can update the 
editor.
