Why did you make an alternate spider, Tomi?

Do you have any duplicate entries? AFAIK non-vermin creatures cannot be "raw".

[isabuea]

not sure about the duplicates... i just downloaded the graphics set of it and played

You mean in the first post? It was not updated for .10 so it could cause problems. I am working on a new version right now.

I've fixed goblin castes' sizes, made chitin tannable (Lofn's solution I was going to implement for a long time). Also I've included Wanderer reactions by Lofn with a few tweaks of mine, and now I try to make a hair-to-thread reaction for adv. mode.

Also I've included a herbalism reaction which looks for random plants. Too bad you cannot make output chances based on the skill.

O.O I just saw a Goblin town with Wesman and Sylvien Elves,I bet the Elves are violent.

I've added some magery: "create food" and "cast fireball arrow". The fireball arrow is based on Wizardmod fireball, and you can either shoot it or throw it. I plan to add more spells. Because of DF bugs I replaced "weave hair into thread" with "weave plants into thread" so you still get a steady way to get thread but without bugs. Now I think what else to add for spellcraft, hmm... Right now each spell uses a coin. It gives some use to all those stacks of coins around the place and makes it not totally "free". Also you have to "prepare spells" by dropping a coin (because you don't want to use the whole stack for a single spell, right?) which makes it more "realistic" .

[Medicine Man]

How do you drop a coin?I can just drop the entire stack.(Edit)I think raptors need to be less common,right now if you meet them you are fucked,no matter how heavily armoured you have about a 70% chance of dying.

[Deon]

You throw the coin at your feet. Also raptors are much slower now so you can avoid them. I will upload a 2.9 shortly. No plant rework yet, but Lofn's crafting with some tweaks and food/fireball casting is in.

[Medicine Man]

You can cast a fireball on adventure mod?!?Sweeeeeeet....

DEON IS A GODLY MO-FO

PRAISE THE DEON MODDER MAN GUY!

Yes, the original idea is in the Wizard Fortress mode where you make a glob which ignites the next turn it is created. I've expanded the idea into fireball arrows and bolts, so you can either throw it OR shoot it with your weapon (especially if the enemy is far and your throwing skill is bad).

It's more deadly too. Wizard Fortress globs ignite targets and they start to melt, while arrows if stuck make the blood to boil in addition to the "normal" burning. Also globs stay on one tile while stuck-in arrows travel with the victim and constantly damage him.

Next thing I plan to make is to give dragons and the like tougher bones and teeth so you will have a reason to hunt them to make weapons and arrows out of their bones/teeth. A test dragon teeth arrows were able to pierce copper armor of goblins.


Oh, I forgot, I've also added a new caste of goblins called "spitters", they are agile and spit web. Also common goblins avoid traps to compensate their lack of special abilities. All other goblin castes are still caught.

And hydras, colossi and the like are trap immune now... I integrated most of TomiTapio's ideas, they are good.

P.S. Hi Acanthus.

[Medicine Man]

Hey Deon,I think dragons and dragon raptors and hydras and pretty much any semi-megabeast that is capable of biting or clawing should get tougher claws and/or teeth.Also I have a question,is it possible to get people to worship you on adventure mode?And also do all races have this magic,or just stuff like Orc Shamans?

I've edited the previous post because I forgot to add a lot of stuff I wanted to write. Basically I plan to give all big animals like elephants and the like toughter bones to support big game hunters, and give metal-like bones and teeth to large fanciful creatures like dragons and hydras.
Right now dog bone spear and dragon spear are the same so I plan to fix it before release.

And any adventurer can use any adventure reaction, there's no way to limit it yet (sadly).

[Acanthus117]

You're awesome, d00d.

Don't stop being that way, maaaan.

[Medicine Man]

Yeah Deon you are awesome.I can't wait for the next version :3
