I think you'll have more luck getting someone to transfer him to their lab account and then switch his gender using the lab ray scientist; I myself would volunteer my lab for the task but at the moment I don't have any spots free...
Sorry to bump such an old topic, but the other cape of the sun topics were locked, and I know it's preferential not to duplicate threads. I was testing this theory on my lab rat before getting a draik egg.. The peophin is Brilliant and i still can't seem to get his gender to swap.
Cape of the Sun no longer works to change gender. According to a programmer who posted on the boards, it was never meant to change genders in the first place. That was simply a glitch that was eventually fixed.
Bummer. I suppose I'm going to have to abandon that whim of hatching a draik then and just get a MP. this character is definitely going to have to be female, and with the pound dead, I don't' have room on any of my lab accounts.
