Issues with editing entities

[Dirty Harry]

Hey there folks I am trying to fool around with entity editing using the FT tools program, I have my entities extracted (weapons) and am able to bring them up in the editor. I make the appropriate changes on the item, Update, then i save the ent file but when i load the game up, the weapon does not reflect the changes i have made. I am saving my ents to \fallout tactics\core\entities\weapons and then the specified weapon type. I will add i already have the specific weapon im editing in my inventory, does this effect editing?

Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thanks!.

OK i figured this, because entities that are withing a chars inventory, they are saved to a seperate save file, So I can just sell and rebuy the weapon from the QM and the values and stats should reflect what i have edited it too!, Ill update and see if this solution works!.


Thanks to two eyed yum, If all you are editing are items and weapons, Keep in mind that items within your characters inventory are saved to a seperate file beyond the .ent file, So changing the stats will not reflect unless you sell to the QM, save and reload, theb rebuy the items to reflect the change, unless you havent encountered the item yet, at which point you could just pick it up into your inventory as expected and you will find the changes you have made!.

Once the game has loaded a map, item or script, the game adds it to your save, this can be seen by HeX.
