Zoran custom egg sprite doesn't work

It seems like the custom egg sprite doesn't work, at least for me. I've installed everything correctly, including the appropriate cos files and the Zoran Norn females still lay plain vanilla eggs. Is there something I missed? I used the CAOS Tool and checked, the appropriate scripts are active in the world.

Do use no seasonal gender bias or other cos files that modify the egg laying script?

If you do, they're probably overwriting it.

You know...wait...nevermind... wait...no...umm...maybe later...

I was but I did overwrite the "DS creatureBreeding.cos" and "creatureBreeding.cos" and re-injected them with the "WaterEggs" ones from the Zoran pack. I can see that it appears to be relying on a doif statement about chemical 50 not equaling zero.

This is a direct copy&paste from the scriptorium of the world I'm using for the scrip in question (4,0,0,65):

Looking at the zip files that has Zoran norns, it seems they have a file that replaces the original eggs.c16

If you've installed this, replace "ZoranEggs" with "eggs" and the va03 in the same line with the number 136.

That did the trick! Works now, thank you very much! So it appears that the included cos files need to be changed to work properly or has anyone gotten them work right out of the package, no alterations required?
