Hi there, I am new here. I already read so many FAQs and help pages but C2 is confusing enough that there are a few Questions left, so i hope someone can help me... 1. C2 crashes when i try to import some intelligent norns i downloaded from here. I picked some with loads of neutrons, lobes and such. For most of these very intelligent norns the game however crashes when i import them. Is there and patch/update/addon that I am missing? 2. Is there any patch or tool to make norns just eat when they are hungry? I always get very annoyed when they starve with a piece of cheese in front of them. 3. What addons/tools do you need to cross Norns and Grendels? Thanks in advance for any comment! |

1. If you're using 'Creatures: The Albian Years' version of Creatures 2, have you tried installing the Creatures Remastered Patch? It's designed to support official and third party installers and development tools. Try deleting the Norns you downloaded, run the patch and then install and import the Norns again. 2. I'm not sure if there's a specific COB which forces your Norns to eat, but I'd see about tempting them with different foods; my Norns always find the Rainbow Bell Pepper Plants and Popping Mushrooms particularly appetising! Try wiggling one of the peppers in front of your Norn's nose and see if it'll eat it. 3. To my knowledge, the only way you can "crossbreed" Grendels and Ettins is if you use the Gene Splicer. I hope I've been some help; welcome to Creatures Caves!  Let us know if you have anymore questions. |

I know there is a set of COBs that can be used to force your creatures to eat something, I still have the set somewhere in my collection of Creature 2 COBs. I don't remember what they are called though since there were several different attempts at COBs like that. Since my collection is a horrible mess at the moment, it would take a while for me to find the right one. Just from a quick glance through my collection showed these two, but I'm not sure if they are the right ones or not. Eat Sleep Better.cob Eat Meat.cob I know there was a cob or set of cobs that covered eating fruit, roots, food & a few others I think, but like I said, I'm not sure what cob they are hiding in. |

I do have that one you talk about,I belive it's Freyas cobs thats about the different food category,but I may be wrong thought.. I will chek the wiki and see if I can find any info about that - other then that,perhaps i could offer my copy if nothing else.. I also found another thats fro Lis Morris over at Don's site: http://www.webpetz.com/creatures/toolsc2.php?page=2 I still belive it's Freyas version having the more food categoires expanded - such as root,fruit etc Yep,I was right,here ya go: http://ottolander.se/creaturesjungle/c2cobs.html Hope that will help :3 EDIT: I don't think there is any existing perfect patch/update or force eat cob for C2,as I do use all of the different "Eat Food" cobs there is,and some of mine still have a war with me XD But they do help a bit better then nothing at all ;3 I might have a go at the pepper bells again as well the popping mushrooms Laura suggested ^^ Also, that with Creatures crash during importing do happen me sometime too,but it's sort of random and depend on the creature ,still never found a cure for that. Perhaps thats not the same issue as mine -_- Beside splicing,you could also make one via C2 Genetic Kit by playing with the apperance and genus genoms. |

Thanks so much to all of you for your very helpful answers. I will try that remastered patch as I am indeed using the Albian Years edition from GOG. I thought it came with all updates and stuff, but that is not completely true. For example I also had to download that genetic engineering kit for C2 seperately. I now use Akamai Canny norns which are more intelligent than standard norns and tend to be less stupid. At least I have not had them starve in front of a piece of cheese so far. Another issue is that one of my norns got into loads of fighting and it seems it has beaten another (otherwise healthy) norn to death. I mean come on - it's normal that kids have a fight, but that they beat each other to death should not happen. That is nearly as annoying as the "Starve in front of food" thing. One intelligent norn i could import was Zelda Fantasta and Loretta look promising but they make my game crash when trying to import. I will post again after having tried the remastered patch. Another weird issue - As i have the GOG version of the albian years i thought it should run better than all other editions as GOG normally takes much care that their games run on modern windows too. However, while Creatures 2 works fine on all my computers I always have creatures 1 crash on Windows XP. Amazingly it runs fine on windows 7. Normally i have more problems with older games on win 7, but this time it's vice versa. I tried compatibility mode for win95, running as administrator and such, but nothing helps. |

Thanks so much for the help everyone. Turns out i was lacking some sprites, so I just downloaded loads of packs and that did it. I could now import all the creatures i wanted. With the more intelligent norns starving isn't really a problem any more. Beating to death can be one rarely, but normally i don't raise them unattended and save them to file often, so I am really okay now. |
