There's some things clearly wrong, like [CREATURE_TILE] specified many times when you probably want caste tiles. And those vanilla-style appearance modifiers aren't all compatible with my body parts at all. But let's try to make it run first.

You're missing the creature's name. That's why it's called "nothing". That wouldn't make it crash though, the reason for the crash would probably be in errorlog. Suggest wipe it, remove all the cosmetic stuff for now, re-try and post new log.

It didn't actually crash, just became a loop of being unconscious and I was unable to exit back to arena mode/use escape to turn the damn thing off, right now the issue is it being called "Nothing"

And where am I missing the creatures name? I specified Caste names for all of them.
Also thanks on the Caste tiles.

K. Unless I'm missing it, the treelord creature should have a [NAME:] token in addition to caste names.

So where would that go? At the top?

[Halfling]

Anywhere. It's the creature's name, used in many places in addition to the caste names. I personally tend to collect creature tags at the top.

[BFEL]

Ok tried that and couldn't get it to work.

Could you put it in where its supposed to go?

Heres the updated raws:

etc.

[BFEL]

Oh....I put in [CREATURE_NAME:]....woops

[Crustypeanut]

Ah yeah I didn't spot that.. thats probably it.

[BFEL]

Ok so they are no longer called "nothing"
Now they are all called "TREELORD" in all caps.
So do Caste names actually do....well....ANY GODDAMN THING?

[Halfling]

Yes, they do. Both are used for stuff. But usually, for example in arena, you see the caste only if the name is different for it.

No idea about the allcaps. You must have a CASTE_NAME or NAME in all caps or a missing bracket or typo somewhere.

[BFEL]

Ok so in arena it will always show the [NAME] for all castes, but in the normal game it should show the caste names?
Because really this is the only issue left before I get back to adding more things instead of fixing old mistakes.

[Halfling]

No, even in arena it should show by caste. I don't know what's up with that, but if castes are working as usual... for example in arena, mallards are called mallard duck or mallard drake, not "mallard".

If wondering how it all looks like in real game, can gen a world, first view legends, and then start as adventurer of that species and look around.

[BFEL]

Well I'll have to figure that out tomorrow, cuz I am tired and need sleep time.

EDIT: Ok did not need quite as much sleep time as thought, got the Entity file for the elves done, but want Halfling to tell me if the default weapon/armor/misc items stuff needs to go, if so will replace with the Halfling item stuff (with some slight modification naturally)

[Halfling]

Well, you can't even use the vanilla stuff without having an items file defining them, so that would just fail. They're not hard coded. Using my stuff would probably be pretty ridiculous too as then elves would only have small cudgels, hatchets and short bows too, like halflings. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Suggest you make a few weapons and equipment pieces for them. Not particularly time-consuming, plus you can make your own like longbows, sickles, sabers, hippie dresses, etc. that elves should have.
