The next ground your feet will touch will be that of the New World. Sail safe and strong... and may the Sapphire Star light your way

Hello and welcome all!
I'm very pleased to not only be a part of the Dwarf Fortress community, but also to release my first ever mod here.
Introducing my Monster Hunter mod. This mod aims to add every single creature from the Monster Hunter franchise into Dwarf Fortress.
Your Dwarves have entered the new world, a land full of treacherous and savage beasts that are just eager to get their fangs on some bearded meat. In order to survive, one must train and subject themselves to any task thrown their way. You possibly won't even last long by yourself, which is why you might just need a few friends by your side in order to overcome the monstrous creatures which stalk the wilderness. Stay strong and don't ever let your guard down, you never know what may be lurking in the wilds...
At the moment there are about 14 new weapons to use, 4 new civs, 3 new plants, 3 new metals, and finally 158 creatures in this mod, including endemic life, which you can slaughter or possibly have yourself slaughtered by. This includes:

• All monsters from frontier
• All weapons including the Tonfas from Frontier
• Joke/crossover monsters like Evangelion Brachy and Behemoth as a seperate addon

But thats not all... or maybe it is, I'm not sure. If theres a certain monster you want added in the following updates I'm always open to requests and/or recommendations. While I am doing ALL the monsters in the series, I suppose it wouldn't hurt to get the ones certain users want out of the way first.

I can see this having a great boon in adventure mode once tactical mode  comes out in the villains update! Can't wait to see  this prosper. Keep it up.

And just in time for the Rajang update too! Speaking of a Rajang update...

HAPPY HUNTING

[tpssurvivor]

I was wondering, how are these monsters represented ingame? ASCII or Tileset? (Im on my job now, so there's no way i can download this now to check it out.

I bumped on this ocasionally, and since i intended to start a modded human fortress tonight, with a world parameter set for only 1 human civ on a large island, I figured this would fit perfectly for a MH story! Definitely trying this out tonight

The monsters are in fact represented via ASCII. I may add a tileset much later into development if I can when I become much more skilled in modding but at the moment it’s just ASCII.

Sounds awesome! Can’t wait to hear how that turns out, man. Happy Hunting!

The monsters are in fact represented via ASCII. I may add a tileset much later into development if I can when I become much more skilled in modding but at the moment it’s just ASCII.

Just an idea: Use the in-game menu icons for the monsters as their tiles and similar styles for other stuff. These things

An extra spooky update just in time for HALLOWEEN!

Unfortunately due to this month being pretty busy for me. There aren't many creatures in this update, only a total of 15 this time around, but hopefully the addon I'm about to discuss later will make up for it...

 Nakarkos, Barioth, Gigginox, Gobul, Molten Tigrex, Gold Rathian, Silver Rathalos, spiny moly, fluffy moly, rocky moly, mossy moly, normal moly, Glass Parexus, Petricanth, Nerscylla

Can you tell me what they all represent? I got the bow down and the other last three, but I don't know about the rest. I want a few civs from the Mario mod to be able craft particular Monster Hunting bone weapons, but not all of them

Which animals from this mod are safe to add as [ANIMAL_ALWAYS_PRESENT] to a specific civilization? I want to do so, but I don't want them to rampage in particular settlements in world gen and beyond

[Abyssmo]

Which animals from this mod are safe to add as [ANIMAL_ALWAYS_PRESENT] to a specific civilization? I want to do so, but I don't want them to rampage in particular settlements in world gen and beyond

Honestly? I would probably say anything within the creature_mh_herbivore file since everything in there already has the [COMMON_DOMESTIC] tag. I've never really taken into account how they'd act in settlements. Then again there have been occasions in world gen/legends where I've seen civilizations tame some slightly bigger stuff like Jaggis, Kulu-Ya-Kus, Pukei-Pukeis, and so on without being too OP. Anything bigger than the creatures in the creature_mh_birdwyvern file is probably a no go if you wanna keep other civs from rampaging the world.

[Lidku]

If I leave Tetsucabra as [PET_EXOTIC], but assign the Shy-Guy civ to be forced to have them with [ANIMAL_ALWAYS_PRESENT] will that negate [PET_EXOTIC] for Shy-Guys only since they'd always have them?
