Can someone tell me the algorithm which chooses the prefix/suffix of a
magic item in Diablo from the seed value? Or can someone point me at
the right assembler instructions?

G'day,

Unfortunantly, i'd be inclined to think that _most_ people that could
explain the answer to you have moved on. Jalruf, however, lives on.
http://www.lurkerlounge.com/content/view/751/110/ is, for my money, the
most comprehensive D1 guide around.. All your questions are answered there..

Yes, I thought so. Thanks for answering.

Yes, I know that guide, but it doesn't contain any references to
code or anything, It only describes what can happen in the
game, but no internal technical details.

I'd like to know the exact algorithm that computes the item's
stats from its seed number.
