Well, the game crashed when I tried to create a new game with the mod enabled. Didn't even print out a stderr file. O_o

Tried a 2nd time and now it works, odd.

heh might I suggest asking a mod to merge this thread with the .90 one which has significantly more replies?

This looks really nice! I'm gonna start up a SP game this weekend to try it out.

Haruspex seems to be untouched. Was that intentional?

Because of the changes you made to raise skeletons, my casters tried to use raise dead and since there were no corpses, nothing happened. I think if you want to weaken the skelespam, you should leave the spell at death 2 and maybe lower the number of effects from 5 to 4. Making changes to the path screws up the battle AI.

Missing haruspex was a bug.

That's a good point about raise dead, as long as that bugginess remains a different solution is needed.

Crude shortbows don't display arrow animations, they just deal damage.

I've been testing more and I think it's more a problem with raise dead than raising the cost of skeletons. Even in the vanilla game, mages will cast it when there are no corpses to animate. Perhaps it should be removed until it's fixed.

Ah, seems I forgot to set the arrow sprite for the bows.

I'll report the raise skeletons issue to illwinter, I think they heard it before but sometimes bugs get buried and forgotten.

Thanks for the testing and issue finding, this was the reason I released the early mod version in the first pace.
