Attached is the files need to be able to increase Player Expertise on your server. Credit goes to Broji for making this mod available.

Installation Instructions:

  1. Extract files to folder of your choice.

  2. Within the files you will see two folders. The "Compile Tab to IFF single" contains the program "DataTableTool.exe" that you will need to convert a .tab file to .iff that your server will be able to read. You can place whatever .tab file you want to convert to .iff in this folder.

  3. The folder "Increase Expertise by 45" contains two files "player_level.iff" and "player_level.tab". "player_level.iff" has already been modified to allow you 45 extra expertise points. So no need to convert this .tab to .iff its already done for you.

  4. I have included an admin command prompt windows registery hack. With this registery hack you can right click on a folder and it will add the context "Elevated Cmd prompt here". This is handy if you want to go into a folder with a command prompt quick. Install it by right clicking "Admin Command Prompt Here" and hit merge. This will add it perm to the registery so you will always have this ability. Probably old news for some.

  5. If you wish to increase or decrease the amount of expertise. Copy player_level.tab out of "increase Expertise by 45" and place it in the "Compile Tab to IFF single" folder. Download a program so you can edit the .tab file. I use Notepad ++ https://notepad-plus-plus.org/ to edit them. Once you install notepad open "player_level.tab" in it and edit line 90. You will see "90 18066900 2000 46" (ill insert a pic later) Change 46 back to 1 to give you the default 45 at level 90. Change 46 to say 91 to give you 90 expertise points more at 90. etc. Once you make those changes you want. Save the .tab file.

  6. Right click "Compile Tab to IFF singe" folder and run Elevated command prompt. Enter datatabletool -i player_level.tab -o player_level.iff This will convert the modified .tab into an .iff file. Now lets install the mod. Place "player_level.iff" in following folders and overwrite the default on your server. /data/sku.0/sys.shared/compiled/game/datatables/player /data/sku.0/sys.client/compile/game/datatables/player

On your client. Simply make a folder in root directory of your client. "datatables/player" and place "player_level.iff in it. That way the client will see the changes as well.

  1. Start your server and login with your client to see the new changes to player expertise.

Have fun!

Its essentially the same as win32. You just need to download WinSCP so you can connect to your VM. and be able to move files from windows to Linux. https://winscp.net/eng/download.php Connect to your VM with WinSCP. Enter IP and login "root" password "swg".

  1. Navigate to /home/swgserver/data/sku.0/sys.shared/compiled/game/datatables/player/ and replace player_level.iff for 45 extra just use that one already made.

  2. Navigate to /home/swgserver/data/sku.0/sys.client/compiled/game/datatables/player/ and replace the player_level.iff there.

  3. Make a folder in your NGE client /datatables/player/ and place player_level.iff in there so your client will see the changes.

  4. Start your NGE server. You will see you have a total of 45 extra at level 90. For a total of 90 instead of 45 expertise points.

  5. If you wish to mod more expertise points just follow instructions above for that.
