custom item help!!!

this is kinda noobie question but hey im a noob =D, how do u give an item the ability to cast a spell?

All you have to do to make it cast a ability/spell is set the ability that you want it to cast, and set stats - charged, set number of charges, and make it actively used. i.e Red drake egg = abilities - abilities summon red drake, actively used - true, number of charges - 1, perishable - true, stats-class - charged.

if you want it to not have charges and have cooldown instead, you have to set it as stats permanent, actively used false, set ability, perishable - false, ect.. i.e amulet of spell shield: stats - permanent, actively used - false, perisable - false, stalk maximum - 1, stalk replenishment intereger - 120.

i think thats it.. if it doesnt work just post again saying it doesnt work and ill find out.

thx ill try that

wtf it's not working =?

To give an item the ability to cast a spell make a spell, look at the spell and under stats youll find an option to make the ability classified as an item ability; then give the item the ability.

Look at the different types of abilities for good examples first. All item abilities are under Special in the abilities section of the Object Editor btw.

oh yes i forgot to say that you have to set the ability to item ability.. sorry about that. i will remember next time tho.
