I'm thinking of making a little adventure world, full of interesting stuff made in fortress mode (from towers to dungeons, quarries to mines, metropolises to ruins, villages to military forts). But i don't know if anyone would be interested in downloading it. Or playing.
Edit: If enough people say its an good idea, i'll try to do it.

[Crazy Cow]

There was a succession-like game where people tried to do this, and I thought it was an excellent idea. I would most definitely play it, although you should probably put some of the better mods into it.

[benas424]

Mods like what? I'm used to play vanilla, so i don't know much about mods.

[Crazy Cow]

Adventure mode crafting is a must, as it allows you to make your own weapons and armor from bones and leather. There are plenty of other mods available, although its pretty hit-and-miss with those. My suggestion would be to have only a few minor ones, but that's merely my opinion.

I really would prefer Adventure mode-only Dwarf fortress version, with stuff which only matters in Dwarf Fortress mode removed and world gen which makes more interesting worlds for adventuring.
But world for Adventure mode is fine.

[Dagoth Urist]

I too think that adventure mode crafting is a must! I don't know if any other mods are really needed. Maybe you could modify the raws so that elves, goblins and dwarves builds cities instead of their respective settlement, so that they are visitable? Have no idea if that actually works out well in the end.
Oh, try to gen a world that has one single, large landmass instead of two or more. Oceans are great barriers that separate adventurers from the rest of the world. Sure, you could swim, but it would take far too long for it not to be painful

hey if your going to do some fort mode building for adventure mode why not read my thread on adventure homes so you could properly set up some stuff.

wanderer's friend adventure mode is a must addon for if you want to experience crafting at it's finest.

PErsonally, I'm working on a set of mods that make the world more realistic, in the realm of creatures, civilizations, cultures... basically whatever I notice that seems unrealistic.

For example, right now I'm genning world after world, exporting the Legends (fully revealed and unculled), and checking the animal populations.  Things like having more predators than their prey, or supposedly rare things like coelocanth fishes being more numerous than longnose gar, are being corrected as best as possible in the raws.

So far I'm 20 generations in and things are looking more realistic... but still aren't complete.

Something to think about if you're trying to make an adventure world.

[Angel Of Death]

This sounds awesome.

You should probably use some DF program to keep all of the stuff in place.

[SirAaronIII]

Use dflair from DFhack to make sure your stuff doesn't scatter on abandon.

Speaking of that, the latest Fill Up the World save is here.

it doesn't work the last time I used it better off using Dfusion. That and I always seem bugged with the command "say it marks the site as a lair" must be from past experience of site changing that proves changing the site type doesn't effect the tiles.

[metime00]

It's a very very good idea, especially for those players who haven't yet gotten around to playing fortress mode. Then they can reap the rewards that only fortresses can bring! Start a succession game and people will join.

[darkflagrance]

You should probably add a ton more civs and weapons so there is variety in what people are killing each other with.

[benas424]

So, i'm thinking of adding some mod for adv mode crafting, something for more beasties, what else? Also, should i use a graphics pack (aka should i delete it when im done making the world, because i can't play with those letters and numbers)?

Also, is there a possibility to make beasties stay in the fortress after i abandon?
