You seem to have removed the WardType line instead of commenting it out. If you put it back, the error goes away. You're also close to the tag limit so can can just add the line
tag WardType
with nothing after it.

Really that's it?!? Thank you so much! :D

I'm glad you both got it to work without the nuclear option! R Soul, you're right, the AI→Utility→Sound Value property doesn't come from the schema files either. It's also a quite unfortunate mishmash as actually applied. I'm somewhat motivated to try to clean up the schema categorizations to avoid the excess instantiations of the property...

Actually, for the record I did opt for the nuclear option :)
I'm not sure if there's a limit to the number of archtype ID's you can have, but I just got back hundreds of them by doing away with all the uneeded T2 schemas.

Well that was fun. I've created a (
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0ByHIWrQkQY-gVFFnZ0lRcDNrMEE/view) modified set of T2 schemas that are designed for easy total-purging and reloading. The readme file in the ZIP indicates what property values have to be manually applied after the purge (assuming stock T2 voices/schemas/etc.). (The schemas themselves are based on the version in AntiMatter_16's "Thief2 Fixed" package.)
IMPORTANT: After purging and reloading, you must reload the schemas a second time (without purging again). Otherwise, all voice schemas will be associated with the wrong voices. Funny, but not very practical. :joke:
NOTE: If you are doing this for a campaign, you should open each mission in the campaign with the revised gamesys and run the purge_missing_objs command.

In that case, I hope my notes on properties in the readme are useful for you (for any schema archetypes you haven't gotten rid of).

That's controlled by a combination of obj_min (just archetypes) and max_refs (shared with concretes) in dark.cfg. The NewDark modders' notes don't mention a hard engine limit on archetypes, only concretes.

I'm really glad you pointed that out. That's exactly the problem I was experiencing, and although I eventually figured out how to make it stop, I still had that nagging feeling something wasn't right. :sweat:
