Re: DM2 editors
Hey, so, I know this post is seventeen years old, but I figure this is a good place to ask about the editors, right? (I've just found out they exist! 
)
I've done some trial-and-error with the graphics.dat editor and I've successfully altered the properties of some items, but not all of them. (I find a lot of the loot seriously underwhelming and that's sad.) For instance, I thought I worked out how to make items add class levels (like the fire armour gives +1 fighter level) but it looks like only some types of items can hold some types of properties? I've managed to have the Jewel of Symal add both a mage level and a priest level, and the Ra-Sar armour add a ninja level, but not a priest or wizard level. And clothes (robe, skirt etc.) seem unable to hold any properties at all (which is super sad, I'd love to modify them to have them actually relevant). I also tried to have all the tech set pieces add magic immunity, but it doesn't seem to work.
Anyone got any pointers on this?

Hi, I believe you should be able to set up any bonus/ability you want on clothes. I don't remember any static coded ability on clothes nor restrictions, but I should have a look at the code to be sure.
You can check the proper stats ID to set from this list (around line 780):

About the magic immunity, how are you trying to set it up ? are you boosting anti-magic stat ?
