Not A Bug Necromancy / Skinning issue

[Anthar]

Hello,
Simply to say on some corpses when you first raise a dead you can no longer skin them for hides.
On majority of others you can do this without any issues ... or you could do this before without issues.
You also get this message that points to some corpses having no flag for "sinkable" after necro.


Using harvester blade, but tried also with other bladed items.

I can skin a corpse and then raise undead from it.
When i first raise undead and then try to skin a creature i get information visible in popup and get no skins.

What he is saying Dan, is that creatures that are supposed to be 'skinnable' for hides/leather are NOT able to be skinned if you cast the 'animate dead' spell on them. I've noticed this as well just never thought it was a bug/thought you made it this way intentionally. With that, i always skinned first before animating the dead. (if i were actually taking the time to farm leather.
IDK if you can animate dead & THEN skin on OSI or not.

On UO, once you animate a creature you have never been able to skin them. It has been this way for at least 15 years.

I did go on and confirm it though also. Still the way it's always been.
