    Ha - it was meant as a compliment to both.

    In other news, I bought Achtung - I will try and get something together for FG Con

    I thought someone was working on an "official conversion" of all things Acthung Chtulhu (which is why I didn't go near the conversion project myself) ?
    Former SW ruleset / Deadlands extension author. Now I just wanna play a few games. And maybe hack. A little.

    Hope it turns up as an official mod sometime.

    I messed about with Ikael's 'Realms of Cthulhu' sanity extension and with help from mask of winter's you tube vid on themes (and after a lot of angry DING noises from my computer), it now appears to do sanity achtung style with a dementia box.

    I got the wild wars 2 mod to use as a template. I will try and cthulhu up the theme a bit to make it more achtungy and I will start building up the library.

    Anyway, here's the sanity extension if anyone wants it

    Glad to be helpful. Your extension looks rockin' solid to me. You could however, remove extension.xml file's line 16 (<icon name="indicator_penalty_madness" file="indicator_penalty_madness.png" />) since that icons is not provided or used within the extension (you get nasty warning on loadup otherwise). Also I recommend changing extension.xml file's line 15 to <script name="Achtung_CthulhuLauncher" file="launcher.lua"/> ie. all special characters and whitespaces are removed. Names of resources and scripts should be as systematic as possible for future references

    Right, so the theme is looking good now. I was trying to change some of the wording on the character sheet (Race to nationality, and setting to occupation). Does anyone know where there is an extension that does something similar that I could adapt?

    Hopefully, I will post an Achtung one shot for FG Con soon

    A lot of these labels are in the strings_XXXX.xml files where they can be easily modified for translations etc.

    That's looking really cool. I can't really claim any credit, I just messed about with things done by other people.

    Here's my theme so far. I have just changed the weird wars theme a bit
