Question.

Can all captured animals be tamed?  If not, is there a way to make it so they can be?  Thanks.

In vanilla DF, in one word, no. You can train the following animals though: http://df.magmawiki.com/index.php/DF2010:Animal_trainer

You can always make any animal you've caught into a pet by looking into your raw folder in your save file of the region you're playing, looking up the animal in question and either add the [PET] tag or change the [PET_EXOTIC] into [PET]...

[Girlinhat]

In vanilla, there's a Dungeon Master, required to train exotic captures, which is most everything.  However, the Dungeon Master doesn't appear most times, and is broken even when he does, or is modded in.  Pretty much everyone who cares about taming will change animals from [PET_EXOTIC] to [PET] to enable them to be tamed easily.  There's even a utility out there that goes in and changes them all for you!

Is that why I have been unable to tame my cage trapped giant eagles?

[Seriyu]

Yep. If you're gonna change the raws to tame them, be sure to update the raws in your world folder, they won't apply to your current game otherwise.

Hmmm. Guess I better figure all this out.

Anyone have a link to the previously mentioned utility that does this for me? I'm afraid I'll try modding and end up with fire breathing eagles or something.






Actually maybe I should do it anyways...

But seriously, about that utility?

Search for the No_Exotics or something like that in the modding section. It's great in that it works with all versions, but it removes all exotic tags from your raws.

If you could do that by accident while removing Pet_Exotic, I would ask you to mod my raws...

Just download notepad++ and replace all [PET_EXOTIC] with [PET] in your save/regionX/data/raw or something like that folder.
