Here are today's updates:

(Sorry, new classes not ready yet)
  • XP for Endless Maze spawns increased
  • Male Pixie now gets Pixie feats (no rebuild should be required)
  • Undead should no longer be affected by FleshToStone (petrification effects).
  • Appearance changer should no longer cause auto-sort items to be put in bags. In general changed script so any items which has been in the hands of any owner should not be auto-sorted. So if someone drops something on the ground and you pick it up, it shouldn't be auto-sorted.
  • Lycanthropes and Natural spell - changed their effect to a wildshape polymorph. No idea if this will help, didn't test. Feedback required.
  • Bard songs recompiled and Song of requiem edited in order to see if this helps with inspirations dispelling when bard songs used. Feedback required
  • Secondary Blue Slaad appearance added (for toolset only)
  • Red Slaad model added (for toolset only)
  • DMFI languages chat box now resizable
  • Quest items in containers should now be properly removed Feedback required
  • Fix for show faction badge publically. Now uses SpeakString instead of FloatingTextOnCreature

My druid with natural spell can now cast while in full wolf form so I guess it works!

It looks like werewolves in full wolf form are now only getting 5/silver DR, rather than the full 10. They get 5/silver in both full and humanoid form currently.

Male pixie alt reporting in, logged on but I still don't seem to have my racial spell-likes. Do I need to do a rebuild or something?

Nothing should have changed there. I seem to recall it was like that before (regardless of what description says) - can you confirm it was different?

I know they *should* get 10DR in full wolf form.

Damn, it should have been automatic.


Looks like full rebuild will be required. Sorry.

EDIT: Or you could try gaining a level, that might kick it.

I can't. I've not played around with the wolves yet, so this is my first attempt.

...I'm not sure if this is relevant, but I've noticed that
Brynn's Dark Aspect form seems to have gotten this
same Wild Shape treatment. Now, when she reveals
her true nature as a vampire, I get an active effect on
the character sheet called Wild Shape -- but I didn't
before the update.

Does this mean that, if she multiclasses a little in Druid,
she could take Natural Spell and throw Eldritch Blasts
all over the place in her vampire form?

I would also like to point out that, while in Dark Aspect
form, Brynn cannot use any of her vampire abilities,
namely, the bite or the gaze. I can understand if they
won't work as a wolf or a bat, and they definitely can't
work while gaseous, but shouldn't the Dark Aspect form
come equipped with Vampiric Gaze and Blood Drain?

Part of that might be polymorph limitations. I have a vamp and they've never been able to use those while in the dark aspect form. Honestly after awhile you won't use that form for anything other than rp.
