    [​IMG] Why does the game say that I've reached my summoning limit when I've only animated two dead? :confused:
    If it helps, I'm at Dragon's Eye level 1.

    Animate Dead is actually a summon spell. You can have only six summoned monsters at time (no more BG1 skeleton hordes)

    [​IMG] Also there is a bug descibed in some posts before.

    When you leave a area your animated dead comrades doesn't acompany you in your journey. But - if you then try to animate more meat, you can get the message you described. When you return to the are where they were, they are dissapeared. Just kill all animated dead before leaving an area.

    I think that when you go back and they are not there, their count is reset. So you could just go back and forth once so to speak and they should be gone. I think...

    That's the little back in v2.0
    i encountered it several times. I summoned 6 undead, leave the area, rested and i cannot summon anymore in the new area. So i always kill all the summons before leaving an area. If not, i will have to restart my pc and the game to get this problem sorted. i don't know if it exist in v2.01 as i already have an habit of killing my summons before leaving.
