Help Forum Norn Importing Problems    CreatureComfort   7/30/2021 Hi everyone! I'm Jeremy, just joined up and so happy to be here. I'm noticing some weird stuff with downloading norns off the adoption page here and importing into Albia on C1. The main issue is I imported some dragon norns and the game crashed and now many norns I try to inject (either from breeds or adoptions on forum) come out mostly as dragon norns instead of the sprites they're supposed to be. Any ideas? Thanks ^_^ Jeremy   Lodestar Doringo     7/30/2021  1 Welcome to Creatures Caves, Jeremy! The standard question I have to ask here is what specific edition of Creatures you are playing on. Did you obtain it from GOG or is this from any old CDs of yours? This is important, because the GOG versions of the games install and run a bit differently when it comes to where the files are saved and read from. Basically, the GOG version has another set of folders in your My Documents/Creatures/Creatures 1. I'm not entirely sure on whether the game reads for norn sprites there or in the Program Files directory, but you can always try putting the norn sprites in there if you're stuck. I do believe it is the latter though, so if you installed those sprites into the My Documents Creatures folder, you may want to consider installing them to the Program Files/Creatures Images folder instead. Another thing, it might sound like an obvious question but did you install the breeds before importing norns of them? If you don't install the breeds and their images, the import files will not install them for you, unlike how agents and egg agents work in DS with inline files, where upon injecting/laying the agent it automatically unpacks sprites.   CreatureComfort   7/31/2021  2 Thank you for your detailed reply! I found the program files creature folder instead of whatever else I was doing and it worked like a charm! Best, Jeremy
