things have been a bit chaotic around the home recently and i've had less time to work on this than i had hoped,i still aim to have a release shortly after the next df version however.

[Eric Blank]

Sounds good!

Also, another suggestion: Change the Zess description to this:
"A black-skinned cave dwelling creature. They are a form of undeath or reincarnated being and have a superficial resemblance to their original bodies. It is possible to become one, if you're so willing."

The original description doesn't provide much info, and actually doesn't make a whole lot of sense...

updated to 2.8

taly and enoca grafics, and speed tweens

dwarfs are 900 in vanilla

Fantastic mod! I hope to see more development in the future.

[darklord92]

I'm mostly waiting til the next update so i can really clean it up and get the mod ready for all the new features (foot prints and such ) that are going to need to go into all of the creatures. it's going ot be a rather large change so it will take time.

[Eric Blank]

In the meantime, consider removing or renaming the sergals' halberd entry; the game already has a "halberd" weapon, which should work just fine for your sergals.

[darklord92]

actually it might be best to start the clean up now, most of the creatures need a rewrite and clean out after all.

[darklord92]

2.9 is up, the great raw nuke of 2012 has begun, probably will end at 3.0 as a lot of new features are going to need to go in than due to the df update.

[DarthBoogalo]

Wheeeeeeeee!!

Any plans for new additions to this at the moment? I may try bashing my head into the nearest piece of furniture until I think of something to flesh out the not-sergal races more, I mean, they've got all those cool modded description thingies, and stuff! I suddenly feel like giving everyone eyepatches and making them go 'ARR' before combat for some reason.

[Eric Blank]

Pirates everywhere? Sounds fun!

One suggestion; the Zess could be given alternate castes specifically resembling other races (Sergals, Nevreans, Dwarves etc...) and have a similarly divided transformation interaction such that a female dwarf always turns into a female dwarf-zess or whatever. It's possible, and would be pretty awesome, but damn that'd be a chore.

[darklord92]

Well i did decide to rewrite the nevrean entity file, as well as add the screw press to other entitys because they were missing it( no beekeeping )

also i found this in one of micks gallerys so possibly a new weapon for northerns

EDIT:

Also, I think I've had enough with some of the excessive language in the translation file. There's probably going to be no more "impervious square anuses" as squad names from here on.

[darklord92]

Updated to 2.9B includes entity fixes as well as changes to the nevrean race!

[darklord92]

2.9Bfix    i accidentally borked the nevrean military, there using a clone of the dwarf military right now with some smaller edits such as maximum soldiers etc.

I'd been having that same problem with it. Turns out I forgot to remake and use the symbol. I went and put another one together:

language_SYM_dfmm

[OBJECT:LANGUAGE]

[SYMBOL:UNTOWARD]
   [S_WORD:ANUS]
   [S_WORD:BITCH]
   [S_WORD:CROTCH]
   [S_WORD:INCEST]
   [S_WORD:NUDE]
   [S_WORD:NUDITY]
   [S_WORD:PANDER]
   [S_WORD:PISS]
   [S_WORD:RAPE]
   [S_WORD:SLUT]
   [S_WORD:SPEW]
   [S_WORD:VOID_VERB]
   [S_WORD:WHORE]
   [S_WORD:INCONTINENT]
   [S_WORD:BUTTOCK]

If that's used in conjuntion with [CULL_SYMBOL:ALL:UNTOWARD] in the entity files, they'll stop using them in names. I thought it was the wierdest thing for a while...

[darklord92]

I ended up plain old removing them however. I don't believe they really had a place in the mod to begin with, they were more a left over from the language file generator I had used (which had been based off of the old df language files, "tower of rapes" anyone?)
