Just wanted to let everyone know that the U6 Project is still looking for people to build dungeons. We'd love to have a couple of good 3d modelers as well, but our main need right now is people to build creepy-crawly things underground. Please contact me via our forums if you're willing and able.

I've done a few mods to add playable characters for DS1/LoA - Naja, Succubus Queen, etc. - and they're easy to add for SP because the game will offer any template based on "hero" as an SP-usable character. This means that a new character just needs a NEW template file with the right content. However for MP use, it's necessary to REPLACE an existing gas file (or several) because there is only the one list and you have to change it.

I got bored quickly of Dungeon Siege, despite liking most of its features. The reason is that multiclass characters are much too weak compared to their pure-class counterparts. When you level up a secondary skill, the skill itself rises plenty fast, but the STAT rises extremely slow, since stat growth is tied to your character's total experience, not the experience in that particular skill.

Silly question perhaps, but what is a skrev?
In swedish it means croutch, ^^ but what does it mean when it pertains to DS modding?

I saw the term in this screenshot: siege.yanksandbrits.net/index.php?n=Main.EditingASkrev

I re-zipped the versions of Lance's gmax import scripts that I'm currently using and put a copy up on my web site.
