I downloaded the elementals that Neldelas has created, and experimented with the scripts. After a while I had created a creature that looked like the spell Weird! This is not a hak-pak, which means you can for example play a module with this creature over the net without the other players having to download this creature. The stats I have made for this creature, that I have called the void aberration, are extremely high, because I thought that was fair. However, you are free to change its stats if you wish to do so. Thanks for creating the scripts, Neldelas. Hrun the barbarian
This is a compilation of the old system into a single score. There were 2 that made this score of 7.00 then rounded to 7.

have to say...
the idea was great but it's to much of a lag hog... and the
monster doesn't look good when there's some odd 20 of them
ontop of eachother

How to, DeathMouse? As with the post on the bottom, I am
not going to create a larger bundle of creatures, but
posted the script on NwVault so that other people could
use it and create creatures themselves...

I had a look at your scripting, and fiddled with it a bit
(well actually I almost completely re-wrote it) and I
found that it takes up much less resources if you remove
the old effects before adding the new ones. The way it is
at the moment it will lag the game out before the player
has time to kill it. Or at least that's what happened on
my machine (grrr). Anyway thanks.

It's ok, just wanted my much deserved props! :P
Anyways, I personally don't like the way (with current
engine limitations) these have to be done through scripting
and visual effects. Having many of these things running
around only feeds the Lagbeast, and I'm just not ready to
do the hakpak thing and lose half of my playerbase.
It will be a great day when BW finally gets that multiple-
hakpak auto-dloader available, until then we are stuck.

I would love to add a screenshot, but i dont have the right
software. Anyway, the creature looks like the spell weird.
If you really want to know how it looks, play a high level
wizard! Anyway, it is a very small file and downloading
wont take long. Just give it a try!

Do the world a favour and add a screenshot.

Um, soory Invizible420. I didn't know that you created the
script first. Well thanks, anyway. I will be creating a
larger creature-collection soon, and the banshee will be
included.

Umm that's based on my script, btw!
Just to set you straight!

Great job, Hrun. And yes, you can do the same thing with
the banshee, but I'll leave that to Hrun.

Holy +blocked+! When I saw this creature I nearly craped myself!
Great work. Could you do something like this with wail of
the banshee?
