Hi folks,

It's looking like I'm going to have to try rebuilding my computer in the near future. This means a re-install of Creatures, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. However, does anyone know how this is going to affect the norns? If I back up the world files (C3DS), and copy them back after re-installing, will the norns be unaffected? Or will Creatures realise that it's a fresh installation and clone an imported creature, even if the world file is the same?

You can backup the world files & copy them back into the game without affecting the norns,(I've done it before) but if you do that, you NEED to make sure you have ALL of the agents that had been in that world installed before you try to open that world. It would also probably be a good idea to open an empty world first & inject all of your agents to make sure all the sprites, sounds & everything else are in the right folders, for your backup world to find. Otherwise if it can't find the files for the stuff that is in it, it will give you all sorts of errors & refuse to open.
