I'm trying to mod a creature but I'm having trouble with talons and attacks. Any advice? Here are the related parts of the RAWs.

Define "trouble"

[Urist Mc Dwarf]

Attack SCRATCH seems to have correct format but could not find proper BPs in any caste, so not added
Tissue layer not added because no BP found: BY_CATEGORY:TOE:TALON
nrecognized Creature Caste Body Token: 5FEET
Body Token Recognized But Could Not Connect: 3TOES_FQ_REG

That trouble.

The problem is likely related to where you declared the body parts for the creature - could you post the entire creature RAW entry instead of just an excerpt?

I think the problem is that for HUMANOID type bodies, you need to use 3TOES rather than 3TOES_FQ_REG and 3TOES_RQ_REG - FQ_REG toes attach to "front feet", RQ_REG to "rear feet", and TOES themselves attach to "feet". They're different categories of body parts.

Thanks.
