So I am trying to figure out how to modify the games ui to add additional information on the scroll over popup window of items. I am pretty sure that mod would be a client side mod and not server side. But looking through the .tre's, I was unable to find what was needed. If anyone could help guide me into the right direction, so I don't spend the next 2 months chasing my tail that would be awesome.

You're most likely not going to be able to neatly do that beyond actual client injection and grabbing the variables from memory, as .inc files are predominantly purely visual, backed up by predefined code inside the exe itself.

What kind of variables would you like to have displayed, out of curiosity?

Phoenix has done more work on .inc files to better answer the .inc file question though, there might potentially be a way if these variables already have getters, as shown in the examine, but I have too little experience with them.

Something like max damage of the item, or other useful information. Here is an example I discovered that shows what i am talking about. But I have been unable to reproduce. I am only assuming that it is client side, because searching the code has yielded me no results.

That's client side, I feel like the CU executable shows that information on weapon objects, I had seen that in a specific video from the CU but unfortunately it's no longer a public vid.

Actually, it's a combo. I'll get back to you but you can do more specific stuff server side that does show certain things. MAX damage though, no.

It's ok max damage was just an example of something neat to put in there. I really just want to mod it to add more useful stuff. So any info you have would be appreciated. Thanks for all the replies

Great, thanks for any assistance on this :) I know in vanilla Core3 it does not show it though.

EDIT: The video in question is Belkor solo'ing NK Necrosis as TKM in the CU, he briefly mouses over his Knuckes of the Katarn in the toolbar and I thought it showed more than just the condition.

Yeah I was messing with it a bit, you can return just about anything for the tooltip on something server side BUT big but here, you have to see what. Like I did titles, condition, sockets, but when I tried damage from the weapon itself it crashed. So again, it can be done but on a limited scale.
