I downloaded the SMAUG server and I'm enjoy it alone, at home. I know this is selfish, but I have dial-up connection, and phone bill... you can guess the rest.
Anyway, how can I increase the level limit? Level 65 is way too little for my taste. Let's say... level 150? Same question for ROM.
Ah, and if is possibile, I'd like to make this modification using the Area Editor, not some C++ or VB stuff, coz I know nothin' about them.
Thank you,

SMAUG and ROM are written in C (not C++), and the level limit is hard-coded. From memory it is only a one-line change, however you need to recompile. If you are not familiar with using C compilers this will slow you down a bit. You can download and install Cygwin to do it, there are quite a few posts on the forum about that, and the problems people have doing it. :)

Also, you would need to update the appropriate classes (which you could do with a text editor) as they have descriptions for each level. For instance for Warriors:

Title
Man~
Woman~
Title
Swordpupil~
Swordpupil~
Title
Recruit~
Recruit~
Title
Sentry~
Sentress~


... and so on.
