There's always an edit button when you post, but it only stays for 30 minutes.

Well that certainly explains things. I'm just slow. Hrmph.

Anyway, I have a question. Somewhat unrelated, but I'm doing it in the context of this mod, so.. I want to change the Great Eyes around a bit. I'm not a fan of the whole shapeshanging deal the Earth/Water and Fire/Air eyes have going on. Removing the shapechangings shouldn't be too difficult, and changing the spellboosts since they're no longer necessary.

But no matter what, I can't seem to get the Water or Air eye(s) to show up as pretenders. Obviously this is what is originally intended, since those are meant to be shapes of the Fire and Earth eyes respectively. I am missing something really obvious here and the modding manual doesn't want to help me either.

Anyone feel like grabbing a laser pointer and showing me what I'm doing wrong?

Alright, I solved it.
Then I noticed that all the "eyes" appeared a bit "flat" on the top, instead of entirely round.

Then I noticed that none of them had a secondary "animation". This isn't really relevant, since they can't attack - but they can still cast spells, dammit!

So I threw a wrench in it. Then another one. Then I decided to merge it with some of my own mods. Suddenly, I've been stuck for hours doing a whole slew of minor stuff.

Since Psientist seems to have gone AWOL, I felt that there's no harm in sharing.

Read the top of the mytheology4.dm for a full disclaimer on my part.

Changes: Renamed, changed descriptions of and diversified all Great Eyes. Only The Earthen Eye (Earth) is now a natural shapeshifter (into The Aether Eye (Air). Added secondary images for all Great Eyes and made them "rounder". Added my own Ecclesiarch, Spider King, God-King and Sunwell pretenders. Changed the descriptions of Grim Reaper & Wraith King pretenders. Changed all instances of Cuthulu to Cthulhu, including the name of the pretender. Numerous small changes to most of Machaka.

Just thought I'd share. Smack me on the fingers in case there's any complaints.
