I'm running a very large fort, and need to get rid of all possible pauses..births, moods,claiming of workshops, artifact creation, and naming of military equipment.

Are there any of those I can't get rid of?
And will it mess up my save?

I'm 560 adults into a 1000 dwarf fort attempt, and will NOT be restarting it.

  Thanks

Editing the effects within announcements.ext does not mess things up, it just controls how the info is presented. I don't remove anything in the file, just editing it so the announcements still occur, but the pausing and zooming does not. I don't know what would happen if you removed lines, but wouldn't recommend it.

No I wont remove lines, just the r, p.

My main concern is with 2 annoncements. Artifact, military naming equipment.
I need to draft 150-200 dwarfs soon, and then all new migrant waves.
At 2 pauses per draftee (shield,weapon) that alone will 1400 pauses.
Wich is about 1375 too many.

Have you considered using DFHack's "nopause" script?

Link for more info.

No I'm perfectly happy with the changes, without masterwork announcements i can finally see the important stuff!! I also left the caravan pause in, cuz I gotta get rid of all those x*socks*x
