Hi!
I can take custom Classes (Dragon Shaman etc.) with my character but not Dark Flame Zealot PrC even though I met the pre-reqs.
Added the level 1 and ready to get to level 6 .bic. Here's all the infos I could gather:

-Playing SoU module.
-Tested the build leveling from 1 to 7 on a custom module leveler (Ravenloft, beyond the gates) and it worked (same bic used than with starting the SoU character).
-Tested importing my level 6 character meeting the pre-reqs for Zealot into the Ravenloft module to level up in it: could not take the Zealot PrC at level 6... neither 7.
- In both cases I could take the Assassin PrC (and could take Swift Wing PrC at level 7 on Ravenloft), telling me it's not an alignment or skill bug imo, neither a *unable to take PrC classes bug.

- All of this lead me to believe it might be the "Weapon proficiency: kukri" feat causing all the fuss since the pre-req states "Exotic weapon proficiency: kukri"... Maybe for some reason the feat does not register correctly as a pre-req only while on an official module..?

Well, I don't know what else I could say... Added the lvl 1 .bic made with the character creator and a .bic with the character ready to level up and take the PrC. 

If there is a way to get around this while editing the Zealot and removing the pre-req while keeping the game, would be nice (I'm just no modder so I don't know how... would need to tell me how or just zip back the modded PrC.)

I built this character specifically for this PrC and don't feel like restarting another :-(, any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks alot!

Just my 2 cents, but tried using some char editor to add the old exotic weapon proficiency (all weapons added) ?! like Leto.

It's probably one of the scripted requirements.

I tried to level your character in PGCC module. At first I couldn't selet BFZ (Black Flame Zealot), so I checked all scripted prereq's. Turned out that your character didn't meet domain requirement.

It's true that your character has fire and destruction domains. Both are feats with uses per day and since our script uses GetHasFeat() function, it will return FALSE (you don't have the feat) if you used up all uses for that day.

To fix this simply rest twice (the prereq script runs at rest start, and feat uses are restored when you finished resting - so 1 rest to restore feat uses - 2 to run prereq script when character has all feats). You should be able to take BFZ than.
