World of Dwarfcraft
« on: July 25, 2008, 07:50:28 am »

World of Dwarfcraft, the Warcraft modification for Dwarf Fortress.


Do you love World of Warcraft? Then you'll love the World of Dwarfcraft, the Warcraft Modification for Dwarf Fortress.

You've fought yeti in the hills of Winterspring, now fight them in Dwarf Fortress.

You've mercilessly slaughtered Murlocs in their hundreds, now slaughter them in Dwarf Fortress.

You've assaulted the Dark Fortresses of the Scourge in the Plaguelands, now assault them in Dwarf Fortress.

Everything you love in your favourite MMO, ported into your favourite roguelike.

Features:

Ten Brand New Races, playable in both Dwarf and Adventure modes.

Ten sets of Male, Female and racial speech files, one for each of the races, for when you face a boss.

Three brand new languages for the controllable races. (Possibly, very time-consuming, could use a helper.)

Many, many brand new creatures to face.

Brand new body templates and parts.

Brand new armours.

Brand new weapons.

Brand new items, such as toys and instruments.

New fish to catch.

New metal ores.

New stone types.

New gems.

New alloys.

New races of civilisations, such as the Centaur, Murlocs and Goblins.

The all-consuming Scourge are the new evil sieging force.

Be careful of venturing too deep into the earth, as horrible new dangers lurk beneath the surface.

And more...


Feature Status Key:

Red: Between 0-10% complete.

Orange: Between 10-25% complete.

Yellow: Between 25-50% complete.

Pink: Between 50-75% complete.

Green: Between 75-100% complete



Feature status will be updated when I can, and features will be tweaked and added (or removed) as time goes on.

Now, a question.
Is it possible to create new ruler-types?

Thanks for reading.

Please feel free to leave comments or suggestions here, or e-mail me at Lexywexy09@aol.com if you would like to provide any help.
What I could currently use assistance with:
Gathering languages for races.
Listing creatures.

Depends on what you mean. You could have a leader be a megabeast based on the spheres of the civ, or you could set the leader based on profession (Child, Soap Maker, etc.)

Ok, well I specifically want the Goblin leader to be a Trade Prince.

I beleive you would put [LEADER_TYPE:TRADER_PRINCE] (or something like that) somewhere in the goblin's little corner of entity_default.

I don't beleive they have trader princes, though. Ah well. :P

They might still worship megabeasts as long as they have the RELIGION:ANY_APPROPRIATE_POWER tag.

Hey Beacon mind if I do the new fish types? Just filling in a niche so you can concentrate on more important things.  ;)

The tag in question is [LEADER_TYPE:MERCHANTPRINCE]

Maybe also [SITE_LEADER_TYPE:MERCHANTBARON]?
