Devil's Reef Agents

I am trying to install Devil's Reef, and I got a little stuck. I know the agents go in the agents file, but where do I put the .mng file? i am thinking images, but I am not sure.

On a related note, the Breeder's Beware website says that the instructions on injecting Devil's Reef into a world were in the readme... They aren't. Can someone give me a run-down so I can write down how to do it?

Much appreciated!

The .mng files contain background music for rooms. It goes into the sound folder.
Not sure on the readme, sorry...

A while ago, I wrote: File Types in the Creatures Series, which may be generally helpful as a spotter's guide. :)

I use Devils Reef a lot! I can't remember if anything special had to be done the very first time aside from the *.mng, but the agent-files should be clearly numbered in the order that you'll need to inject them to make the room run :)
(The very last injection will create a portal, which looks like a nautilus shell, in the Capillata that you'll need to click to get there).

Hi, I'm also having trouble with Devil's Reef and a few other metarooms. I have Exodus and some rooms have injected successfully, but others such as Devil's Reef and the Grendel Meso are not showing up in the machine used for injections in-game. Other Metarooms like the Norngardens, Chione, Aquanornia, and Deep Abyss injected just fine so I'm not sure what's going on. I've tried putting the agent files under both C3 and DS.

Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

Plan9Channel7, it sounds like you're having an issue where the game is unpacking stuff to your My Documents folder instead of the game's directory. Have you tried copying the contents of your My Documents\Creatures\Creatures Exodus folder to the location where C3 and DS are installed?

Lollipop Lord,

I'll try that when I get home tonight! I have no idea why it started doing that because it was working fine at first...I think I also broke a few other things (I had to take a few egg agents out, like the expressive norns, because they were causing the egg machine to completely disappear) so maybe something I did when installing other mods triggered it. I'll post later and let you know if this fixes it. haha

I figured it out! Man, it's been a while since I last played these games. Apparently the installer only installed C3 and I didn't have DS at all! That would also explain why I couldn't load a lot of the norns I'd downloaded. I thought the controls were different than I remembered!

Thanks for your help. Everything is installed perfectly now.
