I've always wanted to try out different races in adventure mode and I had found out how to do so a long time ago and I've now forgotten, does anyone know how I can play as (for example) a Minotaur in adventure mode?

Create an entity_minotaur file in the raws that targets the creature_minotaur file. Sadly, I have no idea how to customize an entity. I just know that it has to have a [ADVENTURER TIER] token to be able to play as them.

[Crabs]

Go to your DF folder:
raw/objects/entity_default
And scroll down to the bottom and make a line of ******** and write something like "edited from here" (That's the way I did it to remain orientation in the files).
then write

[ENTITY:x] (For the "x" just anything, doesn't really matter what.)
[INDIV_CONTROLLABLE]
[CREATURE:MINOTAUR]
[ADVENTURE_TIER:6]

Please note: If you use this way, you will only be able to play a minotaur outsider i.e. your adventurer will only be able to get skill points on knifeuser and spearuser during character creation.
And: It may be that the MINOTAUR has tokens that make him hostile against normal citizens which would prevent you from taking quests.

Why would anybody want to play as a minotaur? Cave crocodiles is where it's at.

I imagine the [SEMIMEGABEAST] token could give some problems, not sure.

That just reminded me of this

Once, I was playing as a walrus (I maded it so that I can play them, cuz I wuv them so) and was wandering around a goblin tower, sneaking about.

A goblin accosts me, swinging a sword at me, and i bodyslam him, breaking his leg. Next, I pierce his skull with a tusk. I take his crown, and wear it.

I continue searching for golbins to harm bodily, when an arrow pierces my torso, doing minimal damage. I grasp the arrow in my maw, and huck it back at the goblin, gouging out both of his eyes, afterwards he collapses from pain, and I tusk him to death. Smothered in blood, vomit, and water (it is now raining) i continue up to the top of the tower.
A bolt flys past my head, and I fall to the ground and crawl at the goblin, however it pierces my heart, and with my last, dying breaths, I throw myself at the goblin, knocking him backwards, startling him. I fall off the tower and explode, spraying walrus bits across the goblins below.
Awesome.

Does this work for any creature? Do I just change the creature name from [CREATURE:MINOTAUR] to [CREATURE:DRAGON] or something like that?

Yes. At least that's how I try out different creatures in Adv. Mode.

Creating a new creature and race from scratch using new materials and new body schematics is very troublesome, if you just started out. This I learned when I tried few months ago. Its very easy to suddenly end up having a creature made out of wool or some unnamed material which comes off very easily.
