I have two question/help requests 1. I have tried to add custom portraits several times but I am unable to get them to work correctly. If I try to follow the directions I found on this board I get CTD every time I get to the choose a portrait step in char creation. I used the portrait wiz to add portraits and they never show up on the portrait screen. Can someone give me and idea of how I can get this to work? 2. I would like to alter or control the NPC level progression. I have Meleny in my party and would like her to take Craft Wonder so she can make Amulets of Natural Armor. Her feats so far are not real effective and seem to be missing one feat (as a 3rd level human she should have 3 feats and only has 2 that I can find) also it would be great if she had a higher wisdom and enough strength to carry her loot. I would be thankful for any input that would get me going in the right direction on these things. Also, yes I am a non-programmer, non-editor, non-computer geek, but I know D&D and enjoy this game a lot so keep it simple if possible ( I probably need cheating for dummies) Thanks Steve
