The trade skill is used when calculating the prices you get when buying/selling at traders.

Here's the link:

But you can also extract and pack it manually in the command prompt, but that's a hassle and win commander is a lovely and easy tool to use. Check the mod kit for instructions and syntax if you choose to do it manually.

The *.act files are inside those AZP archives.

EarlJameson "3600" //Earp

ManchuChung "2500" //Cobra

MazzyLiklik "4400" //Ali)
But changing those didn't seem to have any effect, and I can't open the files in the outsourcedconfig mod.

You need to activate the new price system, edit the PriceSystem "1" to PriceSystem "2" and your changes should take effect.

Here's a link to the mod-kit and source code. It's in russian so you need to use google translate if you wanna use it. The English source code has never been released, so you have to make due with this.

It can be done by applying a CGL check in their source code files and have a multiplier that increases that value. I'm not very good at programming and have some expert help in these matters. If you know coding it shouldn't be that difficult to figure out.
