[Linux] OC campaigns (WD, SoU, HotU) and max class amount limits

Was wondering a bit... In the OC campaigns, is the amount of classes you can take hardcoded or is there an way to increase it? I know Bioware designed it around 3 classes max but I was wondering if you can increase that or is that solely for certain premium content and for community content?

Also, if the OCs allow the increase of the cap - how do you do that? I noticed on the Steam forums (I've got the EE on Steam) that the .2da Override no longer exists, as I already figured when I had checked that location, but others who've attempted to change it not always got suggestions by others to work.

    There should be no problem increasing the cap for the OC.

    All you need to do is extract ruleset.2da from your installation using a tool called nwnexplorer, then edit the line MULTICLASS_LIMIT at the bottom from 3 to 8 with a notepad (I use Notepad++, but Windows' Notepad is fine) and put it in your override folder (my documents/Neverwinter Nights/override).

    If you'd rather not use nwnexplorer, download the already extracted vanilla .2da from the vault and do the changes.

    Thanks, that worked :smiley:
