I believe new creatures can be upgraded. They just need a script for that.
I also use ERM Hooker with Amethyst but for me it works. Are you sure you placed files where it should? Creatures folder need to be in main data folder, not the mod datafolder. Amethyst.cfg I believe is enough in mod data folder.
Hill Fort work just good for me, but I heard it stops working if you enable some old script from WoG, I believe "Universal Unit Upgrade".
I believe it would be good to give all new units for towns a script line that it has upgrade.
I noticed, you don't use baterry.dll? Are you sure it works well enough for you? (it adds CA receiver)
I think I have newest Amethyst Plugin in my "Amethyst Upgrades", you can copy it and compare to yours copy, anyway it's OxFEA who created the plugin.

2. I used the amethyst.dll to create creatures from 198-213. The problems I encountered are:
...
the main problem IS you didn't prepared creature 197.
Dracolich is Creature 196. Also you need modify DEF files which has frames for creatures also you need traits and anim txt.
Thanks for trying to help anyway. If you have question - ask, perhaps I may know.
aah and ERM_HOOKER is about hooking erm code onto executable code, and Amethyst relocates DATA to another DATA adress - it seems unrelated

I put everything under the mod folder. The dll is in the ERAPlugins folder and everything else in the data folder. The same as what the Oxfea's original post says.
197 is the demo creature that comes with the download. I just added 198-213.
The author of script 97 told me that the memory address used in script 97 and/or 98 would be wrong if the amethyst plugin was used.
So I took his advise not to use the new creature plugin.
Maybe I will try it again. Sometimes strange errors will disappear after restarting computer.
Added:
Haha, your amethyst.dll is larger and newer than mine.
When I replaced my old one, it worked!!!
I am so excited!!!
I will try to see whether it is compatible with script 97 and 98 now.
Thanks a lot, dude!!!!

And about the CA : D, I am not using it since I only need standard recruitment window. I guess this command is only for dwellings with 3 or 4 creatures?

It is for giving creatures per town instead per town type, and I believe it can be used for any dwelling from 1 to 4 creatures, but I never used this... it needs baterry.dll ...
And yes some functions from chinese 97 and 98 would work wrong with amethyst. but you can add them in creature config files. another perhaps should work. I mean codes which changes creature itself could not work, but ones which change creature's battle behaviour should work.
Version of Amethyst I downloaded had a guide or perhaps part of source code, that helped to fill these creature config files (I don't remember).
And for missing audio files: you must provide them - each set of sounds per creature. I prepared archive with silence sounds, it is in my mod folder, you may use it.

Baronus - You may try, but I believe you would have a bit of problem when AI build the UPGRADER. It won't crash, but may glitch. Also ZL replaces some creatures - I don't checked which, but some of them I may use. Once ZL would be switched to Amethyst it would be not compatible with Amethyst Upgrades (there may be only one mod with Amethyst.dll at once).
So long story short - they glitch or are incompatible. But this points Amethyst Upgrades, rest of the mods from Knightmare Mods should be compatible.

Bar,
try to download my newest version updated today. I have fixed some bugs as well.
I had the sound problem before, saying resource manager cannot find file '', which shouldnt be '' at all. Or it might be wrong with the z variables. Anyway, now I dont have this problem already.
I used those text files for my creatures. If you run other mods that also use those creature text files, the creature stats might be wrong. If they change the icon files, the icons might be wrong.
If you know about those files, you can try to merge them into one mod.
Maja,
do you know how to add new creature dwellings on the adv map?

here is amethyst with sources
it seems a new one despite name old_amethyst
old_amethyst
from sources you know how to fill cfg files, so if you switch to Amethyst plugin, you may set there things like poison or vampire bloodsuck.

I tested it. Amethyst version works perfectly with new units 206 or more numbers. Better than first. No problems with monkey. Thanks for new city! If you want you can work to add new elements. Maybe town screen? Buildings? Maybe another faction and we can choice betwen two? All good! Fantastic option.

The building graphics are not done yet. I am working on it.
The current mod contains anything but building graphics.
Edit：
Mostly Done.
Version 3 ready for download.
