[QUOTE="Cleon, post: 5969256, member: 57383"] Yes, I was thinking that was all it needs, but you'd have to recompile all the fields into a new database to make that change, which seems a lot more trouble than it's worth. The current format has the advantage that, theoretically at least, we can do all manner of field-comparisons if we wanted to (and had the coding skills to do so!. Anyhow, with the templates I added I didn't bother with the fields, I just put text in the CR, description, creation, sample creature and credit fields. That's what the Mystaran Gargantua and Weremouse templates have in them. I might try doing it with the "proper" fields the next time I do a template, just to see what it looks like. Incidentally, when you do the Jagwere, remember to add a line that its been renamed. Something like: [I]Note:[/I] The jagwere originally appeared as "Lycanthrope, Werejaguar" in [I]Ravenloft Monstrous Compendium Appendix III: Creatures of Darkness (1994)[/I], but has been renamed to distinguish it from a standard Werejaguar (see [B][URL="http://creaturecatalog.enworld.org/cc/converted/view_t.php?TemplateID=76"]here[/URL][/B]). Which reminds me, once we finish the Great Cats conversion I intend to add a link to the Jaguar to the Werejaguar entry. [/QUOTE]
