Looking like black isn't enough... it should be as black as possbile! I don't remember which end it was (0,0,0) or (255,255,255), but other is white and other black. You should use *that* black.

Black is 0 each of RGB. That's the colour I'm using. ^^; Believe me, that was the first thing I checked.

Try to flatten the image or check if there is an alpha channel or something. Otherwise (0,0,0) should do it.

While we're on it, what can cause a mod to crash the game with a "bad armor for new monster" error?

If you mistyped the armor name when modding it, I would presume. Some of the armors don't have capitalization of every word (mostly some of the rusty armors, Rusty Ring mail Hauberk, Rusty Scale mail Hauberk and Rusty Chain mail Hauberk). They should have the word "mail" capitalized, but don't, so if you're using one of them, it's probably the problem.

I'm actually going to have to fix that for my W&A database, because I apparently have made an error here, typing everything capitalized.

I'm also not sure if you need to add _ in place of spaces, but I do not expect that to be the case.

Woah!
Finally, I managed to sort out my mod (which got messed up in my attempts to fix it ).
Your tip did help and now is a good time to thank you for making me notice capitalization =P

Good to hear you've got things in order.

I tend to be something of a grammar nazi, misspellings and inconsistencies annoy me out of all proportion to their actual significance. It might have something to do with the way I learnt English, I started reading books in English at 7th grade and basically from then on I've had rather little use for school English classes. Learning by reading with a dictionary absolutely hammers spelling into your brain and brands it there with runes of fire, which is why I notice these things so easily.

Add to that the W&A DB, where I went through everything, and the unit DB where I put every unit and their equipment, it helps remember these particular details.

By the way, is my assumption that you're the same Agrajag as the one on SDnet correct?
