How to replace an existing creature?

I made a cool creature, Stickman:



How to replace Dracolich (it is a bit overpowered, too god, I think) with my stickman?

If someone told me I would be grateful

I have no idea(I'm an ERM n00b), but to rename creatures do this:
ZVSE
!#VRz[random number that isn't already used]:S^[name]^;
!#VRz[other random number that isn't already used]:S^[plural name]^
!!UN:G1/[creature code for renamed creature]/0/[R.N. 1];
!!UN:G1/[creature code for renamed creature]/1/[R.N. 2];
R.N.=random number

Hope this helps if you ever need to rename cretures. As for the replacing units I have no idea. Sorry for the off-topic.

You need the h3sprite.exe program and you need to find out the DEF file name of the creature you want to replace.

Name your new creature with this name and put it into the Data folder.

Then do the following in a DOS box or else put it into a batch file.

e.g., if you DEF file name is ZV162G.DEF, do this:

h3sprite.exe @ZM162G.def

(You can delete the DEF file from the Data folder afterwards if you like.)
