This is a very simple program for changing two pieces of information within .mod (module) and .erf (export) files: The program can change the expansion pack(s) required as well as the minimum required game version.
IMPORTANT: It is very easy to break the .mod / .erf file if it uses resources that don't exist in the version / expansion you change it to. No checks are made that, for instance, if you alter a 'HotU + SoU' module to 'plain NWN', you haven't used any SoU or HotU specific resources. Checking this is entirely up to you - please read the disclaimer in the enclosed readme file.
Please read the enclosed readme file for more information.
Very little is new in version 1.0 - the functionality hasn't changed at all. A few changes has been made to the interface to make it more apparent when a file is open and when it isn't. But other than that, since I received no bug reports in more than 6 months, I decided it was time for the program to leave beta.

Nice program. Not that useful anymore. Turning off backup copy option causes it to fail. _________________________ The road to Ravenloft is paved with good intentions.

That's correct, providing that the module doesn't use any HotU/SoU specific content, in which case it may be broken. However, if you host it online, from a machine with HotU/SoU, your players will still need those expansions.

..maybe a stupid question.. maybe im not reading it right..
so if i build a module with HoTU+SoU content on it, and use this info changer, anyone can connect to it? whether they have SoU/HoTU?

OK, I didn't say anything. I've tried to download it from another machine and now I got it right. Sorry.

Hey, people! When I download this thing I get the message saying it's not a valid file (the downloaded file is 170 KB, and it should be about 211 KB big). Please, correct this, I think this could be the program I need to update my old NWN module to HotU, with its new spells, creatures, scripts...
Any way to check for expansion requirements before stripping them? Not really necessary when adding stuff to an existing mod and re-saving, but for builders, it'd be nice to be able to check and see if you used stuff from SoU or HotU.
Anyway, this is a NICE tool!!!

Woah Lilac...
Does this mean your getting close to that front end? Or are you going to leave it at that for changing individual mods and erfs w/ out having to use a gff editor?
