I remember reading about a mod to the embark screen, one that would show deposits of adamantite, magma pipes, mineral deposits etc. on the region screen during embark. Does anyone know the name of this mod?
This mod is no longer needed because now you can switch this feature on in the init file! Simply follow my easy-step guide:
1. Open the 'Dwarf Fortress' Folder.
2. Open the 'Data' folder.
3. Open the 'Init' folder.
4. Open the 'Init' file.
5. Scroll down to the part that reads:
[SHOW_EMBARK_RIVER:FINDER]
[SHOW_EMBARK_POOL:FINDER]
[SHOW_EMBARK_M_PIPE:FINDER]
[SHOW_EMBARK_M_POOL:FINDER]
[SHOW_EMBARK_CHASM:FINDER]
[SHOW_EMBARK_PIT:FINDER]
[SHOW_EMBARK_OTHER:FINDER]
[SHOW_EMBARK_TUNNEL:FINDER]
6. Replace this with:
[SHOW_EMBARK_RIVER:ALWAYS]
[SHOW_EMBARK_POOL:ALWAYS]
[SHOW_EMBARK_M_PIPE:ALWAYS]
[SHOW_EMBARK_M_POOL:ALWAYS]
[SHOW_EMBARK_CHASM:ALWAYS]
[SHOW_EMBARK_PIT:ALWAYS]
[SHOW_EMBARK_OTHER:ALWAYS]
[SHOW_EMBARK_TUNNEL:ALWAYS]
And there you have it!
Err... If you wouldn't mind my shameless brow-beating I could use a favor in return
.
I'd love for you to try my mod and provide some feedback, a rating or comments if you have the time
. Of course... It's entirely optional... I'm just happy to help a fellow forum-goer out!
If you do decide to check out the mod it's called Dwarf Fortress DIG DEEPER and you can find it here:
