Hey, I have a question. So recently I was playing around with different races in fortress mode. I made a nord fortress and everything worked perfectly. But when I tried to do the same with dark dwarves, my worldgen kept giving me rejections because it couldn't create a world that had the controllable civ (dark dwarves). You have any idea why this might happen? I even went into the raws again and changed their starting biome to forest, just in case that was the reason, but it still didn't work.

Did you give them all necessary entity spawning tokens; did you remove LAYER_LINKED tokens?

@Deon: Would it be ok if I used some of your fantasy creatures for my Creatures Deluxe mod, since I am only making real life creatures currently and I really dig your creatures?

@TomiTapio: Would it be ok if I used your tiered leather and skin modifications for my Creatures Deluxe mod?

Well I believe I did. I just copied and pasted the entity spawning tokens I used for nords and they worked fine. And I did remove the LAYER_LINKED token.

@TomiTapio: Would it be ok if I used your tiered leather and skin modifications for my Creatures Deluxe mod?

Sure, use them. They're pretty simple. 20% numbers, vanilla leather, 2x numbers, copper stats, iron stats.
Want to use the fairwood (value 2) and goodwood (value 3) materials too? Go ahead. Oak arrows are better than pine arrows.

Since I'm only modding in standard creatures right now I just need the leathers, although I suppose one could make an interesting set of wooded creatures like dryads, ents and other tree creatures that use the wood templates.

Congratulations!!

Deon congratulations,you're doing this test for your PhD right?

[Deon]

Nah, to JOIN THE RED ARMY . Joking, I enroll in a graduate school. So it will be 3 years more to get PhD .

One exam left, and I will become a P.G. (is it how you call "post-graduate" students?).

P.S. Never imagined myself as an "excellent" pupil . I guess years of slacking and gaming while having a family, a job and studies finally pay off: I've learned how to take exams without long preparations, haha.

P.P.S. Omg Peskyninja, your avatar has made my day .

In other news, the dwarves of Manormusk have just encountered a giant gargoyle right after they arrive.
Instead of running like pansies, they beat down the giant gargoyle with their bare hands.
I think this fort has good potential.
EDIT:Also, it seems I got giant gargoyle marble from it. I'm guessing this is just another name for its skin, and I doubt I can make marble armor from it.

I just want to stop by and say thanks for expanding DF to an even more epic level. Just when I get bored with the game I say, what the hell, try Genesis... So I embark in a savage evil jungle and by the time my first werewolf siege(actually before any ambushes too) comes just over a year in I couldn't help but smile and laugh as the poor guys walk up to what should be a weak undefended fortress and must pass by 12 ogre corpses, 3 dead nightwings, 8 eviscerated harpies, a bludgeoned gargoyle, and a couple kobolds mauled by a bear the elves brought... That and the blood of 21 dead dwarfs. If werewolf pants soiling had been coded in I would have suffered a swift fps death! Btw, our poor lupine friends soon had their fears confirmed by dieing in various stabby, drowny, and shooty ways, poor bear didn't make it though. Best virtual year ever...

hum I just had a flying sea serpent attack my *mountain* fortress.... no ocean for quite a few over-world maps, just a river on the edge of my embark.  Sea serpent of the sky?  Or glitch?

[James009]

I love this mod and all the new content... it's like an excellent expansion pack. Is there a way to light or make fires for things like melting ice or snow?
