 3. You need to make sure the newest version of Exult Studio is installed properly onto your computer as well. Exult Studio should be installed in the same folder as the Exult snapshot.
 4. The patch folder needs to be in folder which you are allowed to write, so Exult Studio can save any changes to existing games. See 2.4. What you can do at the moment on how to change exult.cfg accordingly.
 5. In order for Exult Studio to work properly, you need to have Exult running in windowed mode. If you can see your desktop while playing, then you're doing it right.

 6.5. Placing a monster spawning egg
 
 The first thing you want to consider before placing monster spawn is some of the basic egg attributes. What probability do you want? What distance? Will it be a nocturnal creature? Next you have to set the monster specific egg attributes. The first question is probably what type of monster you want to place. You can now switch to the main Exult Studio window, select shapes.vga and choose a shape. Drag and drop this on the "Exult Egg" window. Frame # isn't overly important when placing a monster, but for placing an object it can be very important. Enter these attributes into their respective form. You next have to set the monster's schedule. The various schedules that are important for a monster spawn are discussed next.
- You also have to set the spawned monster's alignment. Any creature set to a Neutral alignment will ignore the Avatar and friends, following their schedule until attacked. Any creature set to Evil will immediately attack the Avatar if you get too close. A Good creature will help the avatar in fights, but will also attack the Avatar if he is caught stealing or killing "good" NPCs. It will also attack evil Monsters or NPCs regardless of the Avatar. And finally Chaotic creatures or monsters will attack anyone, regardless of their alignement
