Adding limbs to dwarves based on gender
« on: July 29, 2012, 11:30:36 pm »

I've never modded anything so...

Lets say, hypothetically, one wished to create more anatomically correct creatures, so that, hypothetically, battles and whatnot would have more entertaining injuries. Lets say, hypothetically, male humanoids had an extra arm, while female humanoids had two extra arms. Where in the raws would one enter these limbs, and how? I'm assuming it would have something to do with these 'castes'?..

It's surprisingly simple (And FYI, has been done. Check out Genesis).

Basicall, you know that tag that adds parts to a creature? ([BODY:])
Put that into the caste, and then the new parts.
Ex:
[CASTE:FOUR_ARMS]
              [BODY:4ARMS]
[CASTE:SIX_ARMS]
              [BODY:6ARMS]
Each caste will get the new parts independent of the other castes.
Easy.

This is a side-effect of dwarven animal training (hit animal with hammer until it forgets that it hates you, then lovingly cuddle it).

I'm not your average Bay12er. I care about my drunken midgets.

Do note that trousers, greaves, leggings, and the like to do not include codpieces.
