custom level up packages

pscythe

How does one define custom level up packages so that we can use them with Henchmans? Specifically I wanted a henchman that would go from being a level 1 fighter to a Fighter 13/Weapon Master (Dwarven Axe) 7/Dwarven Defender 20.

Thanks!

The class levels can be set using LevelUpHenchman.

That will use the default packages unless told otherwise. You can define new packages in pack*.2da files and reference them in packages.2da.

Yes but what exactly goes into the pack*.2da files? Take the packFTfight1.2da file for instance, it is suppose to list the feats for the default Fighter package, but it have 177 entries, including Sap and Deflect Arrows in the first 10. Are we to just to assume that the LevelUpHenchman would just pick those feats listed in order as long as the requirements are met and ignore them otherwise?

Single or duo class looks fine so far but once you add a 3rd class, things start looking weird.

You or anyone got an example scripts on leveling up a henchman to have 30 levels of their 3rd class? I am trying to create a Fighter 9/ Wizard 1/ Arcane Archer 30 henchman, that worked as far as character level 20 with it being at a Fighter 9/Wizard 1/Arcane Archer 10, but once into epic levels it won't level up in Arcane archer without as taking levels in Fighter. Also it will only level up with the master every 2nd level, despite calls to LevelUpHenchman being made for every level in the OnPlayerLevelUp event script.

HI...
Im working about it, for creating some simples personalized heachmen :

an archer and spear
an hammer warrior,
an double short sword rogue

If you wish, we can share the way to do it.., because of im losing doing it, with the feats & levels
