Youve removed the maxage of the dwarf.  Are you sure you even need the remove_maxage tag and cant just overwrite the old with the new maxage?


P:  a good test is to set maxage to 1 year and gen a couple years

 With the new with the way graphics are handled in the new update I've noticed that when I put dwarven beards on a goblin they don't work right anymore has anyone messed with this yet and know what's going on there....
 Nevermind I figured it out, graphic raws are setup differently now lol

Hi I’m quite new to modding and was wondering if anyone knew which tokens for making a playable race were 100% needed, and which ones were optional? I’ve looked through the list on the wiki but it’s a lot of info and I figured I could try and take a shortcut and ask people? Also, how would one make multiple appearances for a race? Like how the dwarves have different beards and hair?

Beyond the usual of needing a NAME, a CASTE_NAME, a BODY with materials and tissues assigned, and so on, to be viable as a creature, really you only need INTELLIGENT. CANOPENDOORS and EQUIPS are fairly useful, so are hands and eyes in your body, while MALE and FEMALE castes allow your civilization to propagate.

You should look at the raws of dwarves, and work from there (data/vanilla/vanilla_creatures/creature_standard or the wiki page), this should also be a good example of how to create a fully-featured humanoid creature with different appearance descriptions.

INTELLIGENT = CAN_SPEAK + CAN_LEARN. I kind of think only the CAN_LEARN part of INTELLIGENT is important.

Dikbutdagrate figured out a way to do it without either, but that’s probably with a custom DFHack script.

So I’m working on a info text file for the main stuff, and I’ll also need an info text for the graphics, but is there anything else that needs to be a seperate file? I don’t plan on trying to add any special stuff yet (I’m more of an artist than a coder) so it should only be those two files…right? I might be missing something, so please tell me if I am

A mod should only need one info.txt, in the mod's root folder rather than in /objects/ or /graphics/.

Oh shoot my apologies I meant the text files containing the info for the mod, not the info text itself, I don’t know why I said info text file I am sorry!

Graphics usually need two types of text files: tile pages (to load images) and graphics (to display tile pages), unless you're re-using vanilla graphics.

Not sure if this is the most appropriate place to ask this, but I'm having a small issue with a mod that I put on the Steam Workshop that makes all clothes available to dwarven civs.

For some reason, however, only braies are still counted as foreign and can not be crafted.

I have forced access on the dwarven civ entity (last entry in the list:)

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I have not changed the vanilla game BRAIES pants object whatsoever, so I'm not sure why braies are not being given to dwarven civs. Am I missing something?
