The "out of place" thing sounds like a mutation. It probably tries to use the sprite of a breed you do not have installed. The engine can substitute the missing sprites with ones you do have installed, but the body data fails.

The protective tub thing.... No idea. Do you have errors or anything? My first guess would be misplaced catalogue files.

Protective tub is an autonamer and not a magic words agent. It pulls names from a catalogue file and if that file is missing or didn't install correctly, then the autonamer won't work. Try out this agent here and see if your game installs catalogue files correctly. If it doesn't install them correctly, then your catalogue files are probably in the "My Documents" folder. Just locate the catalogue folder in your documents, and copy it into your docking station folder.

Protective Tub's error is that it doesn't give unnamed creatures random names. And I DO have the breed sprites my Norn needs.
Edit: Didn't see KittyTikara's post. I'll go try the thing out.
Edit2: Thing said I should reinstall the game in the My Documents folder but it didn't work.
Edit3: I fixed the problem myself. Thank you anyway.
