    Well, I've been hearing a lot about a Kit Maker, and I was wondering where I could find it. Anyone care to tell me please?

    There are two Kit Makers. The one is called "Kit Creator" and the other "Kit Editor" (I prefer "Kit Editor" myself). You can find them both in TeamBG .

    Now that I have the Good ole Kit Editor, how do I get it working? Where do I get the files it wants?

    When you first install the Kit Editor it wants some files in the override directory in order to work. This files are extracted with the WinBiff, which you can find here . Then with WinBiff you'll extract the files it wants (Weaponprof.2da, Alignment.2da etc.) from the Default.bif.

    Is it called the Deafult.bif?

    There is no file called chitin.bif.
    A file that holds indexes to all BIFF files is called chitin.key.

    And Sirdan is correct, 2DA game tables are stored inside default.bif.

    What is the KEY File it's looking for? Should I use Chittin.key? I'm also using the Advanced version of Winbiff, so any help?

    Oops, I forgot to read that last post. So, I'm looking for Default.bif inside Chittin.key?
