    Well, i'm not sure of any in-game mod. However, if you'd like something like this for your character dowload Shadowkeeper from this site's lovely archieves. Run it, and it allows you to tweak the class of the loaded character. Say for example, your char is an elven fighter-mage. Well, you can chose a kit for the class, say kensai, and, if the level you give is high, impliment the appropriate special abilities that the character should have.

    Use SK to kit your regular F/M. Then set all xp and levels to 0, once you load your game your PC will level up to become a proper lvl 1 KENSAI/mage. Save, and use SK again to give XP back, remember to adjust HP to lvl 1 K/M, once you reload you will level up again, to your normal lvl, have fun!

    When testing this stuff I started a new game with a fighter mage. Then I sk'ed him to a kensai mage and added the kai ability appropriate to his level. I went back to the game, and saw he had 0 experience in the new class. So I used the ingame experience cheat, and everything sorted itself out. He got new kais as he leveled up, and his thaco and damage increased too.

    I tried the same with a wizard slayer / thief, but it didnt work. I checked the character record and he had no magic resistance. So I started a new game with a wizard slayer, then changed his class to fighter thief. He got the magic resistance. Because I was only running around in irenicus' dungeon, I was unable to test whether his cumulative spell casting failure thingy was working, but I think it would.

    Oh, you must start a game first. Dont create a character, mod it, then attempt to import it, the game will crash. Start a new game then edit the game.

    This is because the magic resistance is added when the Wizardslayer levels up. If you just use SK to add the kit, then he hasn't actually levelled up in that kit and so won't recieve all the bonuses.

    Ah. so if I did the same thing it probably would have worked after all?

    If you want to start from level 0 I'd probably recommend following silverstars method.

    You could probably also use the ingame cheat to lower your experience to 0 as soon as you start the game, change your kit, then level back up again. I suppose it amounts to the same thing.

    I was hoping to be able to create kensai/sorcerors, but alas this is impossible. Is there any way to add a new multiclass combo?

    It's possible, but a lot more involved. The king of cheese, Userunfriendly (not sure if he ever visited SP or not) had posted a few times on using SK to tweak a f/m/t into a kensai/sorcerer/assassin. It was definitely beyond the standard 'open SK and change your class' though.

    This post was the closest I could find with a quick search.

    Its amazing what you can do!
