What tags do I need to place/replace to make races playable in adventure mode (and where)? Also, I'd like to be able to give dwarves, elves and goblins towns. This has almost definitely been asked before, I know people have done it before, sorry in advance. I did have a look myself in the raws, and on the forums, but my searches seemed fruitless. Please help a first time raws modder! Actually, that's not true, I found toys in the raws and invented a few of my own.
 

Edit:
Wait, is [CIV_CONTROLLABLE] part of what I'm after?

Well, to make a race (goblins) playable as an adventurer, go into Entity_Default and add the tag [ADVENTURER_TIER:4]. Since there are 3 adventure-playable races in Vanilla, we'll make goblins number 4; as you add more playable races just increase the number by one each time.
Now, to give them towns, you need to find the tags like '[LIKES_SITE:DARK_FORTRESS]' and '[DEFAULT_SITE:DARK_FORTRESS]' and add(or replace the latter with) '[DEFAULT_SITE:CITY]'.
This can no doubt cause a boatload of strange occurences, given the differences between races and especially how detailed the new cities and towns are, but it should more-or-less work.
I'm not sure if there's any difference between leaving the original [DEFAULT_SITE] or [LIKES_SITE] tags in as well, I'm not much of a modder myself.

Hope I've helped some, someone with more experience could go into more detail. Oh, and '[CIV_CONTROLLABLE]' simply makes a race playable in Dwarf mode. Which can lead to all sorts of hijinks like when goblins don't have the appropriate noble positions and you cannot appoint a militia commander, or when you receive kidnapped members of other races as migrants and cannot assign labours to them... Endless Fun, eh?

Very nice, thank you very much! Works a treat, exactly what I was after. One thing that I figured out, your post should read [ADVENTURE_TIER4], not [ADVENTURER_TIER4], or it doesn't work. Thanks heaps!
