Well crap.
I should probably actually read stuff I'm meant to read then, I always just assume I can dump stuff into the raws folder, my bad.
Thanks I guess.

It is in a full game folder for the reason you've mentioned: it changes too much things (and the stuff outside of /raw/ folder) so you cannot just overwrite the vanilla.

Any reason why did you overwrite your vanilla with it when it's told NOT to do so?

So. I want to be able to travel to mountain homes and eleven retreats and what not again. I can't now.
Adventure mode is pointless =(

Also; Can you shoot me a link where I can download the most current version of Genesis when you COULD visit this stuff?

[Zajjmon]

forgive me if this info is available somewhere here, but searching has given me nothing. Is it possible to play as a human race in this mod? If so, how?

In adventure, they're called Keepers. In fort mode, that would require it's own sub-mod.

Bearing in mind the extent of the changes Genesis makes, could someone tell me exactly which files are changed? I'm using a mac, and having a hard time getting it to work. Though it runs with vanilla, copying  he libs, launcher, and dwarfort.exe into the Genesis folder gets me to the main menu, and then the game crashes when I select something.

You're not supposed to copy files, the Genesis mod download works as-is. Its a total conversion. Unless something is different about Macs that I'm not aware of, you don't actually copy files from the Genesis mod files, you download Genesis and play it as it is. Trying to copy files will make it not run, because its not just a simple copy+paste mod, as it says on the title page.

Macs don't use .exe files

Deleting the /data/ and /raw/ folders and replacing them with Deon's versions works fine for me on Linux. The same should carry over to Mac.

Any graphics version soon? pretty please with sugar on top

Search for it on DFFD, there is one with Phoebus tileset.

Can you upload an ironhand version of genesis 3.25j please

[Tirion]

I'm quite sure someone asked before, given the popularity of the mod, but I'd rather not read through 542 pages to get the answer. So, where can I get information on all the new genesis metal alloys, like red steel, and sun gold?

[Ehndras]

Check the OP. There's a link that shows all that, I remember going crazy looking for that info too

Sun Gold/Silver for sharp objects, red/black steel for blunt is what I remember.


...Just something terribly EPIC about my golden spear and silver armor

Are aspid dares supposed to ignite from their own saliva? Because mine did and it burnt down the entire map

Sun Gold has pretty much the same properties as Steel.  So, anything that is Steel or better is going to be good for Sharp Objects.  Especially Mithril!

To see what is best for Blunt Weapons, just open the inorganic_metal.txt file in the RAW folder and search for solid_density.  The metals you find with the highest numbers are going to be the best for Blunt Weapons. 

Platinum looks to be the best at 21400, but you can't make weapons out of it...

For weapon materials, black bronze and copper have the highest value of 8930, which is pretty substandard imo.   It almost looks like the Densities of the metals were glossed over during their revamp. 

Shouldn't we have a singular badass metal for Blunt Weapons?  Is there a way to give metals non-edged weapon tags only?  [ITEMS_WEAPONS_BLUNT] or something?
