I'm having some trouble getting some unusual animals to show up in the game as domestic animals, i.e. those you can embark with or request in trade from the mountain homes. I want unicorn cheese and hair clothes!

What tags need to be added/removed from a RAW to get this to work?

[Black_Legion]

add [COMMON_DOMESTIC][TRAINABLE][PET]

This will make them, in order: able to be purchased from embark, war and hunting trainable, and allow them to be pets for dwarves. For wool look at sheep or alpaca.

Since it appears I can't sleep and lack delicious alcohol to aid in this problem (as in fixing it... and its tuesd-... Wednesday morning)
here's what you need:

Teal text should be what you need to get -unicorn wool trousers-

[miauw62]

Or, you can add this to the end:
[SELECT_MATERIAL:ALL]
 [YARN]

And then you can have *unicorn bone trousers* \o/

[Fishybang]

Or, you can add this to the end:
[SELECT_MATERIAL:ALL]
 [YARN]

And then you can have *unicorn bone trousers* \o/

Would that give you a boner?

add [COMMON_DOMESTIC][TRAINABLE][PET]

This will make them, in order: able to be purchased from embark, war and hunting trainable, and allow them to be pets for dwarves.

I think this information is outdated. I did a blanket replacing of all "[PET_EXOTIC] with [PET] in the creature_subterranean and also added [TRAINABLE] but never added [COMMON DOMESTIC] and my current raws do not have them. Yet, I could buy cavern-critters on embark, I've got a pair of giant rats and a pair of Cave Crocs bought from the caravan and also have a stray war GCS who showed up along with a string of migrants. There is not a single instance of [COMMON_DOMESTIC] in my entire Creature_subterranean file.

My guess is then that the new [PET] system interferes with the [COMMON_DOMESTIC]. I could try setting up some other beastie with [PET] and see if I can buy it from embark though.

Although, oddly, Elephants (who are also pets) do not show up in embark or liaison screens. But I wager that that is due to biome.

[Loud Whispers]

...Or it could be down to entity raws, and if they are allowed to take subterranean creatures.

I think this is because of your civ's training. If you go through legends you'll likely find mention of so-and-so dwarf going into the caverns and taming [ANIMAL]. When this happens, your civ gets that creature for embark and trade. Doesn't happen if you leave [PET_EXOTIC] in their raws though.

I found interestingly that I couldn't get Unicorns on embark unless I removed their [GOOD] tag. I assume this is because mountain homes can't be founded in good or evil regions, hence the dwarves don't encounter the unicorns?

[GhostDwemer]

You will have better luck asking such questions in the modding forum, but the tokens you are looking for are these:

USE_GOOD_ANIMALS
USE_GOOD_PLANTS       
USE_GOOD_WOOD

Without them, a civilization will never use good aligned animals and plants.

Yep this is why, dwarves lack the tags to use GOOD creatures or wood, either remove the tag or add USE_GOOD_ANIMALS to their entity file.
