Reading your monster.dat

Following on the itemtype.dat file reader. Here is the monster.dat file reader.

The program is written in Visual Basic 6. It shows you in CSV what the monster.dat contains. This basic edition works for the latest patch. The change size option is disabled for this edition. Those who wants it, please PM me so that I know who is asking for it.

Refer to "Reading your item type" for installation requirements.

Instructions:
1. Put the EXE file into any folder
2. Copy your monster.dat into the same folder
3. Run the EXE and click on CSV. This will generate the CSV.
4. Open the CSV file in Excel or any spreadsheet reader for easy viewing.
5. The columns for the CSV file are in order Length Of Name, Name of Monster, Size Add, Zoom Percent, Max HP, Level of Monster

Have fun :cool:

Maybe you want to read the post again? I didn't say you can convert it back to monster.dat using this basic application

The other version allows you to set the size of the monsters, but that's another thing altogether :rolleyes:
