char models and the _chr.txt file

[Neiv]

Bingo! The file was in the folder, but I thought it strange that it was modified on 9/30/08 and only 1kb in size. So I looked at the original and found it much larger. I overwrote that file and now have elephants stampeding across South Karana. : )

Thanks for the help, Sak. My remaining question is whether anyone can get an elephant to spawn in a different zone, such as East Karana. I have been unable to do that, even though there is an entry for mam,southkarana_chr in the _chr.txt file (and yes, Eastkarana has the original .s3d file intact).

Have you tried since fixing that file? with that file fubared you wouldn't be able to get them anywhere.

I did try it since fixing the file, and it did not work. But then I tried switching out the mam,southkarana_chr entry for your proposed entry (mam,mam_chr), and it still did not work. Then I tried including both, and that did the trick.

Someone should probably update that entry here and here to ensure both entries are included.

Thanks for your tip on the #fix cmd, Trev.
