Is the vanishing cabinet still around?

I've no idea about the Durmstrang curriculum, but if I had to guess, I'm assuming it's getting canned, or put into a pile of something akin to library adventures. And on the topic of those, there are certainly some still available: The Chamber of Secrets should still be there, although I'm not sure whether the spiders are still available. The Philosopher's Stone adventure is presumably still in the mod, but inaccessible to players. Which just leaves The Shrieking Shack, which most certainly is there, and does work.

Of course, you have TerrorTours which offer something akin to library adventures, and there's China, even if there isn't much of anything to do there.

As for the forest: Creatures will, at some point, be re-added, but they're not going to be quite as simple as they were. The forest is a dangerous place, it's not a place just any first year should (or should be able to) go and kill things for fun.

I think Yendys and Calan are the ones currently best qualified to answer this, or clear up anything I've misunderstood.

Several of the scripts were broken when the curric changed, but I haven't gone through each one and found all of the broken parts. If anyone wants to try out the adventures and let me know where things are broken, we can try to correct the broken parts. At the same time, the starting point will be changed to begin with a book in the library. But that's not in yet, so just RP it.

Chamber of Secrets is, as far as I could see, broken, because Myrtle wouldn't tell me anything whether I was nice or mean to her.

She didn't give you a book? She can either give it to you following a correct conversation line, or I believe she drops it if you 'kill' her. I'm uncertain of the latter.

The third floor's transition isn't there, because it wasn't there in the original mod. But I assume there was a Fluffy... I actually never played that plot even once, so I don't know.
