I was bored with plain df, so I copied in your jade dwarves, how do I know if a specific dwarf is a jade dwarf?

Check it's description, I think

[JusticeRings]

Yeah either use the graphics of genesis (Jade dwarves have big glowing eyes) or look at their desc.

I think the issue might of been I didn't remove the base dwarf description, leading to that overwriting the jade dwarf description. I don't know however as I have not tried fixing it.

Does it often happen that the dwarves are extinct?

[NRN_R_Sumo1]

I just redownloaded and they dont seem to.
but- if they Did, that would mean that deon would have caught on to making female casts not have beards opposed to just castes inside the dwarves being differant.

[Hippoman]

Also besides being extinct. They still show up on my Civ list. but never bring caravans.
I also still get migrants.

I take it nobody has any interest in the display buildings I suggested.

[Hippoman]

I don't even know what the display case does.

[NRN_R_Sumo1]

I don't even know what the display case does.

I'd assume it allows you to put artifacts in them to boost room scores, like a statue would, but I'm not too sure really.
I might make a museum eventually I dunno..

Hi! The idea is really interesting, in the sense that different 'display case' types take different item types. However, if you changed the representation of your cases in-game  - like assuming a central tile is a weapon rack / armor stand, the rest may be something similar to window; OR changing the workshop dimension to something else than standard 3x3 - that would be just awesome, and I, for one, would mod them in for my games at least (not so much, but...)
It's an aesthetical addition to the fortress after all =)

Hippo if the dwarves are extinct, the world is invalid and wont let you play dwarves.

Thats the thing.
The musta died after I embarked or something because they remain in my Civ list with no important leaders. And I had gotten a few migrants but never once a caravan. I'm on year 3 now.

I am interested in display workshop and all suggestions I get via email and personal messages, I am just a bit busy with my finals so I can't work on all the multiple projects I have at all, I barely have some time to study because of my son's birthday celebration today (2nd time already; we couldn't get all the people to visit us when it was his b-day so we re-celebrate today again ).

It was the feature of the pseudo-graphics version, when we couldn't apply graphics due to DF bug. Apparently the game allows you to assign different ASCII tiles to different castes, but it doesn't allow you to assign different graphical tiles to them.

You have a son?

Lol, dont get me wrong but you look kind of young in that picture.

@LordSh

i like that idea as well

Also, i'd like to ask whats the diffrence between pattern welded and normal steel (aside former req~ing more fuel to get)

[Lord Shonus]

Hippo if the dwarves are extinct, the world is invalid and wont let you play dwarves.

Yes, it will. There have been cases where the last dwarf died in 5 and the player was able to embark in 301.


As for the display cases, I felt it best to allow the players to change the tile for now, as I'm not sure what tile would work well.
