Recently tried out the mod with the new release and got a crash when trying to view the inventory of new hands recruited with the mod. After I finished producing the items to recruit the new hands (1 freak, 1 hero, and some gnomes) and those hands arrived, the game would crash upon either viewing the inventory of those hands from the HANDS menu, or through adding them to a vessel and then trying to view their inventory in that way. The only mods I have active are the main mod, city lore, and the alternative start.
The Popup for the crash referenced a missing image in BIGOBS.PCK for ST_GNOME_GUIDE. I've included a save file below. Seems like a simple fix, but maybe the other image for the other race guides is missing too.
