Making premade characters

Howdy, I was just wondering, I've been trying to make those pre-made characters you start off with, but I haven't been having much success. All I know what to do is how to make the character background things, and I've been playing around with that. So, (sorry if this is a stupid question, I've searched around but haven't found what I was looking for) how do you make those pre-made characters you start off with?

Welcome to the forum.

In the download section, there is a tutorial available called Create Backgrounds.

http://www.terra-arcanum.com/downloads/arcanum/doa/CreateBackgrounds.zip

This should get you off to a pretty good start.

 

Err thanks but

What I am wanting to do is now how to make the premade characters, like Merick Tumbleweed, stuff like that. Sorry if I am sounding too demanding or anything. Thanks though.

 

You want to add premade characters to Arcanum?

I just checked all of the dat files, and I'm starting to think that premade characters can't be added. The next best thing is what you've been doing;
Custom Backgrounds. The characters might be hard-coded into the game, so that means you can't put any new ones in, or change the existing characters, without first having the source code of Arcanum and then making a mod.

 

Ah thanks, guess I will just stick with the custom backgrounds then. Thanks for your help.
Cheers,
