Previous topics have learned me that underground rivers start in "waterfalls". So if you could someone dam off the chasm, you'd get your underground river started.

[GFXiNXS]

Right, not to mention that you already have an underground river on the other side of the map and halfway up the mountain

[AtomicPaperclip]

Thats the idea, yeah

Just throw the world gen parametres in your world_gen.txt and all should be merry

Users of the Mayday DFG will come up with altered mineral layouts, though.

EDIT: I'm also curious. Does anyone know what the waterfall within the chasm is all about? It generates on a granite layer deep down so it can't be the aquifer

Yeah this, I forgot. Vanilla 40d users can gen it themselves and use reveal.

I've added the AutoHotKey script I made to get these worlds in the OP. Initially it was specific to my setup and timings, though I added an Init file so that you can tweak it for your personal use. Hopefully the effort was worth it.

Yes, I am aware of the unintuitive nature of the script. I am a haphazard programmer at best.

Feedback would be greatly appreciated.

The chasmfall remains a mystery to me. I  regenned, then embarked with the entire chasm in view. Result: no chasmfall

I notice with each of these, the river in question is a brook, not quite everything, as I think you wont be fishing river fish at all from it.

I decided to gen this in d16 and, oddly enough, all the features are still within the same general area (within a 6x6 square), they are in different locations.  I am working on exploring the site further and will post some updates hopefully soon.

 :-[I just realised there are TWO sites in the OP.  Everything looks right in d16 for me from the embark screen now that I realize there are 2 different sites  .

Has anyone managed to grow tower caps on the vanilla dream site yet? I've breached the underground pool/river multiple times, in both mayday and vanilla versions of DF, gotten the discovery message each time, but nothing ever grows on the muddied tiles.

I believe that's true of every mountain site.

Anyone else still playing Dwarven Dream?

I just noticed that the river is really shallow... 1/7, 2/7... Can't even channel enough of it to irrigate or do anything with it...

[Ironhand]

Yeah, there's no such thing as a mountain tile with a river.
And there's no such thing as a non-mountain tile with underground features like rivers and chasms.

[2xMachina]

Are all underground river that shallow? I've half a mind to dam off the river so that there is more water. Lots of the water is falling off into the chasm I think.
