Hm, quote from Toady:
Quote
Yeah, it should re-enable invasions in every save.  You still need to hit the typical triggers, but it doesn't think that goblins are reptile men cowering in unirritated features anymore.

I have seen that PC versions come with an update-batch-file... Linux versions don't. May that be the problem?

Where is this batch file updater of which you speak? I've got a v14 generated fort and i've just copied the save into v16, will I get sieges? Will running the batch file make a difference?

It's in the main df folder.  The updater will only update the raws in your savegame, so it's not strictly necessary.  You should get gobs regardless.

The only bat file I've ever seen in the bitmap compression one. I've always downloaded the Windows version from the first link. Changes are usually minor and a diff program will show you what. Or just copy over all of the new raws.

What I did:

copied the raw-folder that is in the df-folder into my savegame-region folder, overwriting the old stuff
then started the game, immediately had a kobold thief, but don't think that is important
two years or more later I had my first siege.

But still I don't have any candy nor clowns nor circus. :(

Sometimes you just get really unlucky and there isn't a single candy cane.

Which also means no circus/clowns? Or is there any way through the SMR?

Unless you have a demon fortress you forgot to mention, I'm pretty sure you're out of luck.

Damnit. Tried my way through the SMR with cave-ins but that didn't work. Now I am trying to dig my way through the magma sea with the help of a lot of water... Perhaps it is idiotic, but at least it is something to do. ;)

Raw updating won't affect clowns or FBs. Those are random anyways.
