      In the plug that I'm making, I'm trying to have four genders. Really, it's two versions of male, and two versions of female. I edited the MENU resource and added my stuff. I created a desc using the format that EVN bible provided, except only one of the genders was represented, no matter which gender I had originally selected.

      Anyone know what's going on?

      The preset genders are hard-coded into the game. I doubt it's possible for anyone other than Matt Burch to add more.

      Try just using the R(<op1> <op2> ) command to randomize a ncb from the start of the game, effectively creating a new gender, when you combine it with a "real" gender (thus doubling possible genders).

      Thanks anyway, guys, but we've come up with an alternate solution to our problem. If any of the moderators read this, you can delete this post. I was wondering, though. Would it be possible if the member who originated a post be able to erase it himself when he feels that he's received the information that he needs? It could help clear the clutter of topics that have reached their end.

      That ability was once free to all members.

      Unfortunately, spiteful people found a way to abuse it (specifically, by deleting a topic they started while it was in full swing, thus wiping out lively discussion), and so now finished topics are allowed to slowly fall off the first board page, to where they linger, awaiting any one who searches them out...
