I have no idea how you would get large open caverns.

Lowering these numbers might net you a colder world... experiment with what lets your dwarfs live.
[TEMPERATURE:25:75:200:200]

Try messing with this...
[TEMPERATURE_FREQUENCY:1:1:1:1:1:1]
Something like 10:8:4:3:2:1

You can change this so you get more glaciers...
[REGION_COUNTS:GLACIER:0:0:0]
I'd swap this with the desert count. So desert would be 0:0:0

I would suppose changing these values might net you a bigger cavern...
[CAVERN_LAYER_COUNT:3]
[CAVERN_LAYER_OPENNESS_MIN:25]
[CAVERN_LAYER_OPENNESS_MAX:100]
[CAVERN_LAYER_PASSAGE_DENSITY_MIN:0]
[CAVERN_LAYER_PASSAGE_DENSITY_MAX:100]
[CAVERN_LAYER_WATER_MIN:100]
[CAVERN_LAYER_WATER_MAX:25]
Change the layer count to like 10. Openess 100 for min and max and see what happens. I'm not too sure what passage density would do for you.
Change the water one if you want water in your cavern at all.

3 layers is the max i always set it to 100 min openness 0 max passage density that way you get large open spaces with no little walls strewn throughout

This is what I use for my worlds. I get lots of glaciers and a decent number of volcanos, with huge open caverns. It's rather pretty down there.

Please take note of the number of titans and demons; you may wish to lower them.

i dont want more glaciers i just want a world where more of the tiles are cold but not freezing

Nonsapient · « **Reply #5 on:** May 10, 2010, 04:50:54 pm »

okay, so instead of using the temp values I did, use 25:40 or somesuch. Narrow it down to the range you want.

Zangi · « **Reply #6 on:** May 10, 2010, 04:57:25 pm »

[TEMPERATURE:35:65:200:200] (Tightened the temperature range. Higher minimum, less chance of too cold glaciers. Lower maximum temp, less chance of warmer climates. You can adjust it even more if you want.)
[TEMPERATURE_FREQUENCY:1:2:3:2:1:1] (Weighted toward the colder end of things.... the '3rd' slot might actually be the lower end of temperate. Might want to make the 2nd slot the dominant temperature with the above change?)

These 2 settings will have the most effect.

	[REGION_COUNTS:SWAMP:260:1:1]
	[REGION_COUNTS:DESERT:260:1:1]
	[REGION_COUNTS:FOREST:1040:3:3]
	[REGION_COUNTS:MOUNTAINS:2080:2:2]
	[REGION_COUNTS:OCEAN:0:0:0] (I always turn off Ocean)
	[REGION_COUNTS:GLACIER:0:0:0]
	[REGION_COUNTS:TUNDRA:2080:2:2]  (If more tundras are what you want?)  
	[REGION_COUNTS:GRASSLAND:2080:3:3]
	[REGION_COUNTS:HILLS:2080:3:3]

You can actually leave the region count alone if you just want the biomes to be generally colder. Though, you may need to do some testing? I'm pretty sure deserts can be pretty durn cold?

i can just stick it in there right?

You have to replace values?

Why would he have to name a profile on his own copy of DF after himself?

Please try to open a dictionary and use common words, there're a lot of non-native english speakers which won't be able to help you because of many reasons.

smjjames · « **Reply #12 on:** May 11, 2010, 10:39:04 pm »

I think that was sarcasm....

Shaostoul · « **Reply #13 on:** May 12, 2010, 01:43:04 am »

So it's proven that max cavern layer is 3?
