You can’t judge an enemy by the creature file, just as you can’t judge a kit by the amount of powers amassed

I read its script

@Bruce: I haven't tried it, but it looks like a standard WeiDU mod. Unzip in SoA folder, and all

hhehehhehehheheh!!!!!!!!!!!!

if you read the cre file, you will note that it is level 8...so a fireseed or arrow of detonation and g deathblow will insta kill it...

I am so EVIL!!!

now the author of the mod might have gotten cute....making it immune to +2 weapons or lower...

but here is another trick I've discovered about g deathblow and area effect weapons...

Do not fire at the magic weapon protected creature...fire at its neighbors, like mindflayers or umber hulks...i noticed this little trick when taking out some vampires using g deathblow...vampires are immune to +1 weapons, i think, but are NOT immune to area effect...if you hit a creature near an enemy that is immune to +1 weapons, with a +1 area effect weapon, the enemy will still die, cause area effect ignores magic weapon immunity...hehehhehehhehehhhe!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Could it be a problem that I have level 50 rules installed? I unzipped it and ran the setup but it didn't work. Got loads of error messages.

This is what it says:

Any thoughts?

sounds like a corrupted download...

redownload, and unzip or un rar using winrar...

I've seen a few rar files get corrupted by winace...

if i recall correctly, morituri is a winrar file...

are you using winace???

[Littiz]

Hmm, seems like he didn’t include the empty folder for backup, or maybe it’s set to read only so WeiDU can’t create the log file to uninstall.
Did you unzip everything?

Should be something like that...

EDIT: a step back... did you unzip preserving directories' structure?

[Bruce Lee]

I am using winzip. There was no option to preserve directory structure but it did create directories when unzipping. I unzipped the lot, the readme said the main exe file. Is that the problem? Can't be cause I have tried both. Hmm weird. Could it be winzip...

[UserUnfriendly]

download latest version of winzip, and redownload the file from the website.

if winzip doesn't give you the option of preserving dir structure, I think you have an older version...

or download winrar...latest version...
