Hmm, entities have hospitals and messengers but not architects.

I wonder what happened to the priest and guildhall settings from Init? Also, so weird to have a release and nowhere here to post issues as we come across them...

Whole site seems to be falling apart unfortunately. Hopefully just a temporary thing.

The Kitfox discord has a DF bug report forum that already has over 100 bug reports. That's available, at least.

Steam is everything but user friendly when it comes to uploading mods and editing entries, and it pisses me off. If you can upload images through Steam, why can't you do the same with a thumbnail? Why do you have to do the text formatting manually? Why aren't there convenient buttons for that? Is that so difficult to program?

I wanted to upload Dino Hybrids to steam, but I got annoyed big time. Also, thinking about graphics makes me feel anxious. This is all too overwhelming for me. I'm considering sticking to the free version, but I like the idea of my mods actually getting downloaded and played. This whole situation is not good for my mental health, that much I know lmao

So far I've discovered that buildings will be invisible if you don't assign a graphical sprite to them; there is no default unassigned sprite there. I didn't get much farther than that.

The skill ID for engraving has changed, it's not DETAILSTONE anymore. I've also tried ENGRAVER, ENGRAVING, STONECARVER, and STONECARVING. None of those are correct.

Don't stress yourself out over it. Take your time and if nothing else leave it on the free version. There is no deadline.

There will be many mods that don't make it to steam due to the graphic requirement alone.

I was going to port over Human Fortress and Goblin Fortress, but it looks like All Races Playable already made it onto the workshop.

Instead I think I am going to turn those mods into something else.

Try also ENGRAVE, DETAIL, CARVE, STONECARVE, STONEDETAIL, ENGRAVESTONE

The ones on the workshiop have pretty limited features. I would suggest still port over those two.

If graphics are an issue for Dino Hybrids, feel free to take whatever you need from Primal. I should have the mod on Steam soon, so you’ll be able to see how the file side works as well.

I am working on porting Human Fortress over as a mod that replaces all civs with my humans. I should have it done by the end of the week once I finish the art for all of the workshops.

I am not sure on my plans for Goblin Fortress. I may port that one over after.

Huh. This works. Neat. Sadly not possible for different material versions.

Very much my philosophy with Highfantasy. Mods with low graphic requirements will make it over first, followed by graphic mods. I made a multi-day plan for the early stages of conversion, and I'll let the graphics trickle in after that.
