I once read on the DFWiki that it was possible to mod your game so you start at the capital city. Is this true? If so, how? Really tired of getting beat down by beasties...

Is not possible without editting the game itself, which the program "Just embark" will do for you. You will still get batted around by beasties as the capital does not actually exist ATM.

There's a subforum for this, you know.

I have no idea where anything is. I have no idea what anything does. This is not merely a madhouse designed by a madman, but a madhouse designed by many madmen, each with an intense hatred for the previous madman's unique flavour of madness.

Shhhhhhh. That is for the people who are seriously modding the game, this forum (I have found) is mostly for those who are just curious about the game and its mechanics, not anything specifically.

You do not understand the ways of Toady One. He is not a business, he's just a guy trying to make a fun game. He's invited people to come along and experience the journey with him (and help him test it out as he goes along). At the end of the day, I don't think his main goal is to sell Dwarf Fortress, its just to create the best game possible.

Well what about DF general? I mean, there are people asking questions there, that should be either here or in Questions, and this should be there or in questions.

Questions should field "game and its mechanics". That and General.

Cool story bro.
Anyway, I tried to use the DFusion Embark Anywhere, and it crashed my game.
STUPID QUESTION INCOMING: How in the world do I use it?
