Is enough of the save file format understood to be able to pull out metadata like world/fortress/group names or year/season? Or should I mostly count on the folder name itself for year/season and give up on the names?

I have couple of question regarding a creature editing. im not very skilled on that part yet.

1. How does it work to create a skeletal creature. im making a megabeast that is automatically a skeleton. does it work if i just remove all the tissue layers?

2. How can i make that creature have same equipment (for example, robe, scythe and a sword) every time i gen a world. Do i need to edit bodyfile and replace it's arms with scythe and a sword?

damnit. i forgot that last question

ummm quick question. when you make the body txt and a creature txt for your animal where do you put the txt files inside the rars?

1. You can use NONE:NONE:NONE:BONE:CARTILAGE in place of the usual arguments for tissue layers.
2. FORCED is an acceptable availability token.

In the same folder as all the other text files, [DF folder]/raw/objects.

alright but what about inside the objects? do you place them in a pre-made txt i.e. body_default or do you just place the plain txt file of your creature in there all by itself as it's own txt?
