They don't work because you already patches something else in, and by doing so you altered the code and the line numbers that the patch searches for. Simple as that. You get .rej files when you patch, just open those up and put in the stuff that didn't go through in the patch. Simple as pie. Or handpatch, which is what I always do, even with the CircleMUD bpl patches. You might actually learn something that way too, and that's not bad. > after patching in dg scripts everything compiles well, except now i've got a > whole bunch of non-existant mobs...

How can you have non-existant mobs that call non-existant specprocs? Think long and hard about that. I'll give you a day or so to think about it. If you on the other hand have -existing- mobs that call non-existant specprocs, then I suppose you can either remove the specproc assignment from that mob, or maybe you're running the mud in mini mode (-m)?
