How can I put skill 11 or 12 to a guard?

[robert]

As roomshaker doesn't allow you to put skills 11 and 12 to a guard, and this is the only level editor I always use, I would like to know how can I make a guard have skill 11 or 12.

I can think of the following ways:
- Ask Brendon James (author of RoomShaker) to add them to the Guard skill dialog.
- Modifying Apoplexy. It would be easier to add only a keyboard shortcut (in ChangePos() ).
- Use Princed V2.5 Extension 1 (it's a command-line tool!)
- Hex-edit levels.dat
- POPMAP supports skills from 0 to 15 (press E), but it's hard to use.

I modified my copy of Apoplexy so that guard skills can be modified with "+" and "-".
What would be the best way to post it? All files or only the modified ones?

Is he registered in the forum? What's his user name?

I don't know anything about the hex code of POP, that's why I usually ask for specific changes in the forum

All the files, but the problem is that I don't use Apoplexy... Anyway, I can learn.

Thanks for answering

He's registered here as "Brendon James" (his full name) and his profile is here.
You could send him a private message (link), post on the RoomShaker board or contact him via e-mail (mentioned on his site).
Lots of options to poke him.

I sent him a PM, and a mail in case he doesn't login the forum. Thanks Norbert

I've attached the modified Apoplexy to this post.
Note that Apoplexy numbers skills differently then RoomShaker. Apoplexy's skill 9 is RoomShaker's skill 10.
To set the "extra" skills, first set skill 9, then press "+" once or twice. (You won't see the selection, though.)
