    The original files anre inside the game already. To activate them again, just delete those 3rd party files from your override folder and all will be set as it should. ;)

    Actually, now I'm unsure. It is possible that ToB installs the new XPcap files in override folder instead of completely new BIF file. But that would be lame IMHO.

    Wait till someone posts if he has those two files in override folder. If there are no those files there without the XPcap remover, then you can safely delete them.

    Ex, are you refering to the TOB XPcap? If so, then it completely overrrhgts the SOA XPcap.

    But if your refering to the XPcapremover, Im not totally sure, but I think it does overright the SOA XPcap.

    Wait, my post is based on my logic that Bioware packed whole new BIF files for tables, animations and etc.

    Now, will someone check if XPCAP.2DA and XPLEVEL.2DA exist in override folder? If they do exist there, then I'm totally disappointed with Bioware.
    And there is a possibility they did it that way as Kitrax noted. In that case he'll really need to reinstall ToB or someone's files mentioned above.


    [EDIT]
    Tal, mail him those files then! ;) :p

    [​IMG] Both files are in my override, and I'm pretty sure I didn't install any XP cap removers. The values for all classes are at 8 million.

    Just open XCAP.2DA with Notepad and replace the "-1" values with "8000000".

    The game won't be fine if he deletes the files or just replace the values in the XPCAP.2DA. I am emailing you the files.

    And a friendly advice:
    Before installing everything in the override folder just keep a copy of it.
