Help Need assistance with client editing. [H5]

Hello everyone,

I could really use some of your knowledge regarding client-side editing.

I'm not trying to do anything crazy, just a few small modifications here and there, like adding custom items or modifying how the glow effect appears on lower grade items. The issue is, I'm having a hard time navigating the file edits and figuring out exactly where each line needs to go. I tried using the Notepad++ method, but either it doesn't work for me, or I’m simply doing something wrong.

To sum it up: when I import .txt files, the file editor doesn’t allow me to save and encrypt them. And even when I try making changes via the DAT editor, the client refuses to open afterward or it still doesn't save.

If anyone has any experience or insight on this, I’d really appreciate your help.

Thanks in advance!

If you want to edit a large amount of entries in the L2 File-edit I recommend using excel, since both work with columns you can copy the entire file or just a few lines and paste it in excel and it will copy without problems, after you're done with editing you just select the cells and paste them in the .dat file making sure you're formatting correctly. I'm currently doing a massive edit on all gear and that's how i'm handling the .dat work
