We can start with you telling us what type of error you get. Doesnt it appear in generation logs? If so, what error do you get?

I haven't tried it yet, because frankly, it is incomplete in my eyes, and I want to know if it is overpowered or underpowered, but as this is my first creature, I'm not quite sure. I just wanted to have someone's opinion on this before I try it out.

http://dwarf.lendemaindeveille.com/index.php/Main_Page seriously use the wiki.

But for the body use HUMANOID4ARMS, and youll have to make the 1 ear, and 4 eyes body part.

I did use the wiki to get this far but modding gets a little confusing, especially with how things are ordered. Plus it tells me that I can color the beast but dosn't tell me which number is equal to which color.

Would be the basic body but youd also have to make 1EAR, and HUMANIOD_3ARMS in body default, so copy paste this into body_default.

Code: [Select]
[BODY:1EAR]
[BP:EAR:ear][CONTYPE:HEAD][HEAR][SMALL]

Code: [Select]
[BODY:HUMANOID_3ARMS]
[BP:UB:upper body][UPPERBODY]
[BP:LB:lower body][CON:UB][LOWERBODY]
[BP:HD:head][CON:UB][HEAD]
[BP:RUA1:first right upper arm][CON:UB][LIMB][RIGHT]
[BP:LUA1:left upper arm][CON:UB][LIMB][LEFT]
[BP:RLA1:first right lower arm][CON:RUA1][LIMB][RIGHT]
[BP:LLA1:left lower arm][CON:LUA1][LIMB][LEFT]
[BP:RH1:first right hand][CON:RLA1][GRASP][RIGHT]
[BP:LH1:left hand][CON:LLA1][GRASP][LEFT]
[BP:RUA2:second right upper arm][CON:UB][LIMB][RIGHT]
[BP:RLA2:second right lower arm][CON:RUA2][LIMB][RIGHT]
[BP:RH2:second right hand][CON:RLA2][GRASP][RIGHT]
[BP:RUL:right upper leg][CON:LB][LIMB][RIGHT]
[BP:LUL:left upper leg][CON:LB][LIMB][LEFT]
[BP:RLL:right lower leg][CON:RUL][LIMB][RIGHT]
[BP:LLL:left lower leg][CON:LUL][LIMB][LEFT]
[BP:RF:right foot][CON:RLL][STANCE][RIGHT]
[BP:LF:left foot][CON:LLL][STANCE][LEFT]

I hope that works and I haven't embarassed myself :P

That's why theres a color section on the wiki.
