From Dragon Age Toolset Wiki
Jump to: navigation, search

The background_names 2da defines the default creature template for each race and class combination.

The background_names 2da file is not listed in the M2DA_base 2da and has not been assigned a TABLE_* constant.

Structure

Column Type Description
ID int A number that uniquely identifies the entry (unless creating an M2DA override). ID numbers are listed from smallest to highest within a given file but do not need to be consecutive.
Template string Creature resource (i.e. including extension)

Remarks

The ID for each row is calculated using this formula (defined in the Chargen_GetEquipIndex function):

nRace * 1000 + nClass * 100 + nBackground

Where nRace, nClass and nBackground are the value of the corresponding ID from the race, class and background 2da files.
