In that case, perhaps you would be interested in the Weapon Mod Mod, which has separate downloads for vanilla DF and Genesis compatible versions. It has a lot of weapon modifications, including:

Errr, oops. I guess I just performed the textbook definition of reinventing the wheel. Thanks for the link! I'll go check it out.

Okay, apparently syndromes through gases work really randomly. I mean even without RESISTABLE and with 100% chance they still kick in pretty rarely. However they work, so you will get three more spells at your disposal. Especially wicked one is the petrification, since creatures suffocate. Morpheus gift is nice too to cause them to fall asleep.

My personal experience with instant-vaporizing items is that they are very random. Sometimes they won't even create the cloud of vapor before completely disappearing, let alone affect the unit standing on top of it. Conjured up a bunch of syndrome-vapor producing bolts in adventure mode, dropped them all inside a room filled with orcs and ran away -- Lots of vapor, but no suffocation reports or anything even after walking around outside for a long time. So I'm very interested in how you got it to work. In my tests item size does not seem to effect the amount of vapor produced -- a barrel didn't seem to create more vapor than a crossbow bolt for example.

Is it possible to get rid of the freezing vapor? I tried to eat it, but there is too much of it, I jumped into water and have been encased in ice, I jumped into magma and freezed to death. Can only rain save me?

[Trapezohedron]

Oh and boulder spells work if the creatures are "caught in a cloud of x" instead of a burst. Meaning that the spell needs to hit bullseye on the target creature.

Most probably, but you'll need to wait until you "thaw", because if you immediately jump into water, you'll still freeze to death.

[dimosa]

okey, can anybody shed some light on this wierd problem, so i got the board item created, got the reaction added to the shop. got the reaction and the item permettid for the race, but when i say create the item when he is done, NOTHING there.....

anyone has a idea what went wrong?

[Trapezohedron]

Well, you'd have to post some raws here first.

[Kicior]

Is gelatinous cube killable?

[Deon]

Now it is. It has two parts now, so you can chop it in half.

Also previously I've made a mistake: I've added a neural knot (I don't remember the exact name) but I gave it NOTHOUGHT, so it was useless. Now it can be killed by destroying its neural center. Well, in the upcoming release I mean .

Yes, I remember that time when even my rocket blasting (dimension zero based attack, except on godhax levels) golem couldn't even get to kill this aberration.

The only way to kill it was to encase it in obsidian or cave it in.

Oh and that neural knot was called the 'central knot'.

[kerlc]

i just had my version of Bronzemurdered.

a fire-something creature got into my fort (MAGMA!) and set the entry point ablaze. the result? 32 insta-deaths, then tantruming etc. brought my entire fort to 3 dwarves. and a mind flayer (CTHULU!!!!!!!!) got away with the 4th one (damn you snatchers!)

now my dwarves have more than 50 coffins to make. but they are all happy.


oh, the lake was made by my dwarves.

[Trapezohedron]

Ouch, now they are traumatized to the point of feigning happiness. DD:

[kerlc]

or they just enjoy fiddling with the dead corpses, having dark, happy thoughts upon burial, enjoying being alone, and to harass the various merchants with their desires to kill and bury them.... remember, dwarves are sick bastard sons of chuck norris and adamantine, then enhanced via bloodsoaking. (there is A TON of blood all around the place.)

Not sure if anyone here uses Dwarf Foreman with genesis, but I started working on a dfjobs.xml for genesis and thought I'd share.

[TomiTapio]

TomiTapio, any reason why did you reduce the cardinal (bird) population to 20:50 while keeping other vermin bird at 250:500?
P.S. Tomi, FYI, yaks do not moo, they growl. Now I have to combine your sounds with mine .

I guess the cardinal was very prominent on the world's population text export. I think 250-500 is for flies, maggots, beetles, earthworms; and smaller numbers for squirrels and birds. Anyways I still haven't made a giant squirrel.

I put placeholder "shuffles/a quiet shuffling" sound to all prone_to_rage beasts. Badger train shuffles choo-choo!
Got much more to do on adventurer-sounds front, but for now you get the eagle, pigeon seagull spiritraven noises okay.

Currently playing: Fallout 3 Mothership Zeta (did other expansions ages ago.)

(private message) zen caste

Zen goes well with archery skill.
Zen, give concentration, persuasion, judging_intent and comedian skill. Comedy because http://ccbs.ntu.edu.tw/FULLTEXT/JR-PHIL/ew27029.htm

How about... orcs mining skill xp gains are 8% instead of 100% ? That would certainly be different. Try [SKILL_RATE:MINING:8:60:12:120].
Also could make mining skill rust quickly:  [SKILL_RATE:MINING:8:10:6:30]
AND make picks super expensive so can't embark with it.. (orcish rule: picks can only be made of steel)

TomiTapio, I've merged your changes in. I took everything but made some minor tweaks.
Are these all the creatures you've added, or did I miss some?

Thanks! Didya see Baldur Monk the naked Nord kung-fu master? (I couldn't get them to put clothes on. They're similar to a "wandering goblin hero" which I haven't made yet.)

Then I will have to update that damn japanese language file which I did not touch for a month, and make graphics for the new creatures, and it will be ready.

And Deon's changes will get merged to my sub-release...
How about an adventurer spell "bogeymen be gone"? But they're randomly named so syndrome cannot target only them..
Perhaps spell "summon pool of contact poison" since bogeys don't have footwear.
