I'm a casual player and only have about 3 hrs each day to play DF. I've tried looking up some mods but am having a hard time finding the right ones / installing them. I'd like a little assistance please.
(I have the DF Starter pack installed.)

Here's are the specifications for mods I'd like:

Other races, particularly Goblin, playable in Fortress mode. I'd like this mod to be available with one of the updated graphics mods (example: Phoebus)

Something to update the world generation map to another graphic (Phoebus or Spacefox, w/e, I can't understand the vanilla graphics very well)

Any other worth-while mods that won't interfere with the vanilla feel of the game are welcomed.

Thanks in advance.

EDIT: I've been on the "Community Created Mods and Utilities" part of the forum but have trouble understanding the installation for most of them. Beyond that I haven't looked up any mods.

The mod forum is probably the place where you'll get the most responses.  There is an All Races Playable mod that looks to be compatible with the recent versions that might be what you're looking for.

I've never played but it sounds like what you want.

If you need help installing post in the mod specific thread, installing is easy but not standardized.  All Races Playable has pretty explicit instructions about where to drag and drop the files in the first post, for example.  Total conversion mods tend to be self contained with their own copy of DF executable etc., no installation needed, just unpack the files anywhere.

I actually found that mod shortly before your reply. It is exactly what I'm looking for but I ran in to some issues with it.

Here's a link to my post on the Mod section of the forum regarding the issue to any interested: http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=145678.0

Thanks again in advance.
