Yes, these ones you should manually set to obscured.

How do you do that?

Figured it out!  Thanks.

That's how my Genesis engravings always look I think, I only have them visible when I forget to change the init files after downloading a new copy though.  It does look a bit odd but the dwarf picture engravings are about dwarves and dead trees are usually the symbol of your civilisation or whatever so it does make sense, just a bit messy to look at and work out what's actually there.

I'm sure you've seen it, but the "Testing Prone to Rage" thread says that if that tag is set to 1000, things automatically get enraged when entering combat.

Have you all thought of adding that tag to (say) Steel Dwarves? I like the idea of a berzerker caste. . .the idea of having these rare, super strong, super scary enraged guys in my fortress sounds like fun. 

Anyway, I might add that tag to them myself if you don't, once the next version of Genesis comes out.

Has anyone been able to find Geothite ore anywhere ingame?

I had a few minutes spelunking in the raws and I can't find any mention of geothite. Could it have slipped the net during updates and been lost?

100 does the same thing according to a poster a few posts further. Good point though, but I wonder how rage works if you are also in a martial trance...

I am quite intruiged by this berserker (steel) dwarf idea. What are the effects of rage on a unit?

Sure, try it out, takes maybe 1-2 hours of new fort, and see if they become a liability to the fort or do they obey/ignore normal combat commands.
You also might want to try rage:2 on bulldogs, see if they attack friendlies due to rage.

I have goethite the swamp iron set as appearing in:
[ENVIRONMENT:SEDIMENTARY:VEIN:5] (5% very rare)
[ENVIRONMENT_SPEC:MIRE_BLACK:VEIN:50]
[ENVIRONMENT_SPEC:MIRE_RAISED:VEIN:10]
[ENVIRONMENT_SPEC:MIRE_BLANKET:VEIN:40]
[ENVIRONMENT_SPEC:PEAT_SWAMP:VEIN:30]
[ENVIRONMENT_SPEC:PEAT:VEIN:80] (80%, common-ish)
And no, I haven't encountered any, thanks to the "one deep metal and one shallow metal per biome" new system.

(adjusts ore frequencies)
Hmm, maybe still we do not have alluvial layers. wiki says .19 introduced them, but .25 vanilla's raws don't define alluvial...

Edit2: rolled world with seed numbers typed in. Crash! Hmm... I must report it, upload raws and worldgen settings.

[Razonatair]

I've seen Geothite, it's just rare. And no, it's not "one deep metal, one shallow metal per biome." There can be two or more per biome, it just depends on your mineral frequency set during worldgen. I normally set mine <=1000.

[DarkSinnerzZz]

new version has came out.any chance of updating genesis to ?

[Daff]

Deon is working on it, he took some time off for some sort of real life thingy so Genesis is a bit behind in the updates.

[Deon]

Yeah, this "some sort of real life thingy" is my university diploma, and I am running out of time . And it's not behind the updates, it's being worked on. I have a WIP version which lacks some stuff I want to add, once I do it I will release it.

[Raul]

Thanks for your hard work, Deon. Working on your university diploma and this mod at the same time? You're clearly some kind of god.

Diploma?  Deon, things like a future, success, and money are highly overrated.  You should focus all your time on things of substance such as upgrading, updating and enhancing Genesis!  Jeez man, get your priority's straight!
