Editing raw so d0rfs can butcher sentient?
« on: October 08, 2011, 09:11:31 pm »

Which tags do I edit?

Do I also need to edit the other races? I read somewhere that conflicting ethics will cause war.

It's possible, but i can't remember how to do it.

Also, this belongs in the modding sub-forum.

1: Why you gotta be all "d0rf"-y?  What's wrong with just dwarves?
2: DF\raw\entity_default.txt  Find ETHICS_BUTCHER/EAT/MAKE_TROPHY_SENTIENT and change to ACCEPTABLE.  This can ONLY be done on a new world, the existing world cannot mod entity attributes.
3: Wars are healthy.

Even if you change the tags, you can never designate your own citizens for butchering, or use their bodies for food or crafting materials (other than through a fell or macabre mood).

Thats a shame. Oh well. Plenty more mermaids in the sea, as they say.

Yeah, but mermaid bones are worthless ever since Toady was upset by mermaid farming :(

They're not good in Vanilla, maybe. A simple tweak or two in the RAWs and they're good to use again.

It'd just be easier to catch a GCS. Less limited, too; a GCS can provide any amount of silk. Plus, their farming requires large, wild monsters and/or goblin soldiers, so that's always Fun!

I've tried this and it won't work in adventure mode. What gives?

Unless you give them pet tag as well, but that will have some drawbacks as well, check this thread to find out as I don't remember what exactly.
