Hello,

I had a thread from where I asked this questions before but it seems to be gone. =(

I've tried searching and found a way to do this by editing files with a hex editor but I don't remember have to do it that way in before. Whats the beast way to change my number of Dwarves at embark?

Thanks

DFusion does that, run it, type 6, return, your desired number of dwarves, return, and embark on the world map, and you should have your 200 dorfs. Adjust your starting points adequately when worldgenning.

Nice,

I've been changing the starting points at the embark screen where I spend the using a memory editor. Is there a place in the files I can change my starting points so that my saved embark profiles that use more than the default number of points will work?

Hm.. If you use a preset world with advanced parameters you can find and edit the starting embark points in  *DF-FOLDER*/data/init/world_gen.txt

[WORLD_GEN]
   [TITLE:LARGE ISLAND]       <---- Find the right profile via name
   [DIM:257:257]
   [EMBARK_POINTS:5000]    <----- There you are
   [END_YEAR:1050]
   [BEAST_END_YEAR:300:80]
   [REVEAL_ALL_HISTORY:1]
   [CULL_HISTORICAL_FIG.. blabla

This way you can also have more than 10,000 embark points.. waaay more

Nice

Right, but you need to generate a new world. Have fun pigging out with your 99999 points I recommend trying out every one of the dwarven civs before truly settling somewhere as sometimes you can buy giant eagles, grizzly bears and cave crocs! Build bedrooms FAST.
