    ...there are two sets of very similar jars, the Lich Jars and the Soul Jars. The bug strikes in the v1.0 game if you complete the quest for the Soul Jars before you complete the Lich Jar quest, which, as you know, is the quest essential for promotion from Wizard to Lich. TTBOMK, you can retrieve the Soul Jars safely before getting your Lich promotion, but you must NOT hand them over to Maximus until your wizard(s) is/are promoted. This applies if you want to stay with the v1.0 game.

    The official patch to MM7 converts the game from v1.0 to v1.1. It will prevent this bug but not cure it. In other words, it won't help if the bug has already hit your game, but if you patch your game before the bug bites, then you can do the two quests safely in any order you like. It also cures some other, minor bugs, which I don't know off-hand. There's something about trying to recharge a wand with zero charges - don't do it!

    You can get a copy of the official MM7 patch from the link below.

    There is one way round the Lich Jar bug. That is to download a character editor, and give each character a Lich Jar. Just make sure they're empty Lich Jars, not full ones! There are various editors available; MM7Che.exe comes highly recommended, but I used St0rmcat's MM7 view when I needed one. There's a list of editors at

    HTH!
