I finally figured it out. Whoever is in charge of the3rdage.net should add this to their tutorial on adding a new faction.

One vital part was left out of the tutorial when in the playertemplate.ini was specified the new faction's spell book would be "ElvesSpellBook", for example, and the commandset was defined, but never was it mentioned that in system.ini that the following code should be added:

Code:

; In system.ini
ChildObject ElvesSpellBook GoodSpellBook
	CommandSet	    = ElvesSpellBookCommandSet
End

I believe that without this segment, the engine seems to stop reading the playertemplate.ini and just ignores anything else specified about that faction (and no error messages either, silent errors are a plague!).

Someone please amend the tutorial to include the change in system.ini
