Necromancers in the Arena?
« on: March 26, 2012, 01:11:24 am »

I have read quite an old post about an arena fight involving one necromancer and I was wondering how can I add necromancers in the arena? Do I have to edit the RAWs? (never did that before)

Also, I think you can add titans, forgotten beasts and other randomly generated creatures in a similar fashion, right?

Please help the little noob!

Necromancy is one of the many interactions you can flag a creature as having when you spawn them in arena mode. Check the bottom right of the creature-selection screen; it should say "u:No effect." Press "u" to change the effect; you can have necromancers, animated corpses, disturbed dead, "cursed," werebeast, or vampire specimens of whatever creature you choose to spawn.

You can't.

Unless you decompress the world save, find your local Titan raws and ctrl c + ctrl v -> arena

Don't know how though ^-^

There's a script somewhere that will get the raws out; after that, you just put them into a new file, put it in your main raw directory, and it should show up in the arena.
