Custom Kits

    Could somebody please help a newbie in need!

    I am trying to install the Death Knight custom kit and running into a few problems.

    Its really where you use Infinity Engine Editor to give your kit a name and description. I have managed to install my kit and followed what the Installation Guide told me to do (a little vague truth be told) yet my kit has no name or description! :o

    Could somebody please provide me with a Step-by-Step guide through this?.

    What I did was...

    - Load the Engine Editor
    - Go through Edit - Dialog.tlk
    - Then I wrote Death Knight in the 'String' box.
    - I then clicked Add. A 5 digit number appeared in the 'StrRef' box.
    - I Copied this into the first 2 column numbers in the Kitlist.2da file (as per the instructions)
    - I then copied the Kit Description into the String box.
    - Then clicked Add. A second number was spat out, this got copied into the 3rd number column in the Kitlist.2da file.
    - I then hit Save in the IE editor and exited.
    - I then saved the Kitlist.2da file with my changes and exited.
    - I loaded the game. In Fighters was a new 'box' where a kit name should be, with no name or description.

    I can play the game with this charater and it has all the abilities that the Kit should have (as far as I can tell) but without a name or description it isn't quite the same :(

    Has anyone got experience with this? Have I dont this wrong or is something else up?

    (btw: i realise the above might sound a little vague and hard to follow, but this post is rushed, heh.)

    If you need any specs or further information in order to help, just let me know :D

    Cheers guys!
