Hi guys, I created a creature just to test and see if I could. But as I try to add it to the map, it says wrong format? Can anyone see anything wrong with this?

Code: 
<item id="2213" chance="12000">
should be
Code: 
<item id="2213" chance="12000"/>

The /> at the end of the tag lets you know that this node has no sub-nodes associated with it.

If it did, lets us item as an example (since its the one with the error)
If item had sub nodes it would need a closing tag at the very least
Code: 
<item id="2213" chance="12000">
</item>

If it doesn't have sub-nodes then we use just use the forward slash ( / ) just before the ( > ) sign
Code: 
<item id="2213" chance="12000"/>
