I have a syndrome that supposedly blinds a dwarf and rots off all of it's skin. Problem is, it only blinds dwarfs, I have no idea why :\

Changing this

makes it work. Sorry for the late response, but I haven't checked this board for a few days
No problem, and thank you, very much!

Just tested it, and it works! Funny thing though, appearently one of my starting dwarfs liked the horrible flesh rotting gas!

I'm trying to build some artifact weapons. I've seen in various mods that if you don't enable any civs to make this weapon, it will only show up in artifacts. Is that true?

And second: If I want to make these weapons unusually strong (but hopefully not overpowered), would multiplying the velocity modifiers by 1.5 and keeping them otherwise the same do what I wish?

I've tried changing the penetration and edge and stuff which just led to my axe being able to tear the tissue of a dwarf's upper lip. Not what I was looking for.

on the embark screen, press tab till you get to the menu that allows you to chose what civ.  i'm not sure what language is used to pick out animal civ names, so you might have to check legends to find the names of the civs first.

did that, none of them were animal people. then after reading something on the wiki i found out i needed to make a new world for the changes to take place, so i made a new world, with only animal people as [CIV_CONTROLLABLE]. after rejecting over 100 possible regions, it told me none were habitable. what should i change in the entity file?

EDIT: i copied the all the biome tags and stuff like that from the kobolds, and now it works! kthe only problem is that they refuse to cut down trees, even though they have PERMITEED_JOB:WOODCUTTER. do they need tools or something?

Is there a way to make a gem appear reliably in every embark site? I have the gem set to 100 frequency in soil and soil_sand and still the majority of the embark sites don't seem to have it natively.

EDIT: Every site with soil that is.

Give them the following in their entity file for basic tools:

Code: [Select]
[DIGGER:ITEM_WEAPON_PICK]
[WEAPON:ITEM_WEAPON_AXE_BATTLE]

Weapons and armor, etc, are added with the same format.

You'll need to regenerate the world, as entities are created out of the text files and then they aren't stored in text files at all. (They will also still need the tools to mine and chop down trees, and they won't just appear if you add a few lines to their entity file.)
