Adamantine Hammers are for the captain of the guard and Hammerer, if any. Or for training. Put a Crundle in a pit with your adamantine hammerdwarf, wait for a while, and then get him a real hammer.

Worst mood ever: Urist has created "CreepyShrivelled", an alder toy boat worth 2400. My woodcutter is now a legendary woodcrafter in a world where wood is a rare and precious commodity. Guess he spent time whittling in his off hours.

[Hans Lemurson]

My understanding of adamantine weapons is that they are basicly origami made out of paper from hell.  They'll cut 'ya  real good, but won't do much else.

[V-Norrec]

Not really terrible, just incredibly boring.



I mean, yeah silver is great for maces/war hammers but couldn't you have at least used some of my abundant bones... or glass... or gems. Was possessed too so no legendary for me even.

[Psychobones]

Seriously? Quit yer' bitchin'. 8 years since embark on one of my favorite forts, I haven't had a single damned mood. I'd be happy for just about anything as far as a mood goes.

Have you perhaps modded max population to a low number?

[Urist Imiknorris]

Or accidentally turned off artifacts in d_init.

Dwarves are dead. the 16 dwarves I've got is all there is. I expected children to fill out the pop later, but so far, 8 years, 6 marriages, and nothing doing.

Nope, default game, no init mods, not even autosave.

You need 20 dwarves for moods, iirc.

I know. but 8 years after embark, and Mrs.Urist still refuses to consummate the marriage with Mr.Urist. I'd have gotten a nullification by now to be honest. Honestly can't say I ever expected to have to try and convince someone to have sex...

go to the creature_standard file and remove [MULTIPLE_LITTER_RARE] from the dwarves. see if it helps.

8 years and no kids?! I have a fort similar to yours where almost everyone is married with kids. There's I think five artifacts in the list as well. One of the miners has even popped out eight of the buggers.

Idle moooooore.

Ok, I've seen this twice now... wth is a "Crundle"?

[Dr. Hieronymous Alloy]

Am I the only one who actually works to control what artifacts he gets?

You can dramatically increase the probability of getting a weapon/armor artifact by having starting dwarves with appropriate skills and non-moodable skills opposite them (I tend to go cook/armorer, weaponsmith/brewer).

You can dictate precisely what artifacts are made from by forbidding non-desired materials and/or locking the workshop door and putting small stockpiles of ideal materials right outside it.

Once the artifact's started production, you can save-scum to get the precise artifact you want (shield, axe, etc.)

The only problem is if the dwarf has a particular like -- a dwarf who likes high boots will make high boots if he gets an armor mood, a dwarf who likes copper will want to use copper if he gets a weapon mood, etc.
