Well I'd just like to say that troll made quick work of Hugo so I think its maybe just the next-underground.txt creatures I'll fire up my save and go cave hunting and see if I can recreate the bug from here. If I find any I'll have a look see at the raws

EDIT:
Yup I got the same issue then I almost choked on my pizza when I looked at the errorlog

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Now I know that these should be fixable without a re-gen (I also stopped the at the goat for tissues cause the list goes down to the very last Animal-Person)

AH HA! found it, you have this (this is within the mountian goat)
      [USE_MATERIAL_TEMPLATE:HOOF:HOOF_TEMPLATE]
      [USE_MATERIAL_TEMPLATE:HORN:HORN_TEMPLATE]

When it should be

   [BODY_DETAIL_PLAN:STANDARD_MATERIALS]
      [USE_MATERIAL_TEMPLATE:HOOF:HOOF_TEMPLATE]
      [USE_MATERIAL_TEMPLATE:HORN:HORN_TEMPLATE]
   [BODY_DETAIL_PLAN:STANDARD_TISSUES]

I droppped them in, Cleared my Errorlog.txt
and no Luck. Damnit

My only suggestion (after playing some Dark Void decent game i'd say) that since the creatures can ony get their new materials from re-genning is to use what materials we have for them. which means all listed creatures will be made of horn and hoof instead of skin and whatnot. That is the only quick fix I can think of. I will try and see if this works after I finish some barn work.

Which in this case once I return I will have to dig through that errorlog for all mentioned creatures with failed tissues and tweak thier...

Wait a second...

Ahhh.... not only was the mountian goat missing
   [BODY_DETAIL_PLAN:STANDARD_MATERIALS]
   [BODY_DETAIL_PLAN:STANDARD_TISSUES]

but it was missing these as well

   [BODY_DETAIL_PLAN:VERTEBRATE_TISSUE_LAYERS:SKIN:FAT:MUSCLE:BONE:CARTILAGE]
   [BODY_DETAIL_PLAN:BODY_HAIR_TISSUE_LAYERS:HAIR]

once I dropped that in hey bada bing bada boom Mountian goat no longer shows up in the errorlog, tissues are defined and the bugger can die like the rest.

SOOOOoooooo.... here is the list of creatures that need to be reviewed for fixing

Spoiler: Problem Creatures (click to show/hide)

Ross  :o how.... no really how did you alter all these creatures  :'(

I leave it to your hands ross to hunt down these creatures and put them right, once those raws are finished being fixed we wait till zomara0292 is done copy and replace the fixed raws over the broken ones and its fixed. (least of course zomara wants the fixes now then can contuine the turn once fixed)

But that I believe is the main issue. well off to work

It was Wanderer's Friend. At some point, I seem to have installed it in full. My bad.

I copied the vanilla raws from creature_standard and material_template_default, dumped in my intended changes, and put them together. It seems to work fine. The Elk Bird that was being invulnerable is now taking serious lung damage from being hammered to death.

My bad, guys. D:

If you copied the raws... does that mean you killed your caste system? Also I was wondering would you like to work with me on my Mod? as a Co-Modder? I need all the intelligent races to have castes. Currently I got a ton of features too add in and seem to be jumping around too much to get anything completely finished.

Nope, my changes are put in there.

I wouldn't mind, but I'm graduating with my BA's in Spring. I'm taking 24 units between January and May. I don't think I'll  have the time.

Will I be able to safely copy it over without crashing the game, is my question. I have edited raw files myself, but never that of the world that I am playing. I always start it fresh, just in case. Also, Hugo, I was wondering if I could help myself. I honestly can't help much, but I do like messing around with the tings most modders don't, because it doesn't have much to do with the main game play, though it does add to the realistic depth into the world. (talking about the descriptor and item files) Just throwing the offer out there.

Yes. Post it in the save object raws. xD

EDIT:

Read it, loved it. I hope we kill that beast! ^^

I meant to fix the garbage dump - the hole in the top corner is supposed to have a Garbage Dump zone on the stairs. That way, they dump it in the hole. Instead, I put it at the bottom of the stairs. Herpaderp. XD

I wouldn't mind the extra help, How good at modding would you rate yourself? And yes the descripters and Items files would be great help with (Items definatly, got some weapons that I haven't got around to making yet.)

Head on down to my Mod's topic and check it out. I got the latest stuff I'm currenty glaring at as my last post on the topic. A quick link is in my Sig.

Then from there you can PM me and I will give you the untested and still underway next release to work away at (or at least the files you wish to work on)

And back onto this glorious topic. just copy and paste the fixed raws over the bugged ones in the region18 and onward to greatness... Or death, of greatness.

EDIT:
I fixed the garbage dump :P

Same once Xmas is over and the new year its back off to college once again, then people want to have me be Social and play MW3 and what have you. RL really gets in the way of Modding :P

And I also forgot to comment on the newest update :P We lost Alric? lol what a dolt can't save Hugo and can't save himself. Bet Harken and Alric were using Crossbows again? would you be able to assign Hugo's Silver Battle axe to him (Harken)? And Idk lobsters are savage beasts, and when they breath dust that means they mean business. 

EDIT:
Also thats not our hospital :P its the burial chamber. the hospital is the room just south of it with the stairs that lead to the obsidian farm (only good for making swords for trading)

EDIT2:
Mark me down for Year 8 I will have another round at it

From the journal of Athra

Night of the 22nd of Malachite, Year 33, Mid-Summer

Asresh Athelastesh struck it down, through unfortunate luck. Somehow the beast got in and started to wreck havoc inside. Many of the dwarfs got caught in the blast, including me.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
All I could was watch my vision blur as the blast hot dust boiled at my skin. I heard screams of pain and even the shot of a bolt or two, but I could not make out anything until it cleared, and when it did, it was all over. Many of us were vomiting out the fowl tasting crap out of our system, but I managed to find the only person with the distinguishable mark of brain goop left on his knuckles.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
When I feel better, I will be making him his room.
Looking at the designs of the stairs that lead to the mines, I think that the problem area was here.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
I will work on a way to block off those stairs without blocking off entrance, but that stairway, if left alone, could mean major problems later on.

5th of Galena, Year 33, Late Summer
So many of us racked with painful boils. It hurts like hell to hear the pained moaning of these dwarfs, much more to feel the same pain they do, but I am their leader, so I must endure and plan for our future. I guess. I planned out his room.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Well, at least the size of it. Human merchants were spotted, too, so I am hoping for a good trade. I will leave it all to Ross, I am still a bit shaken. Plus, it’s his job anyway. I also came up with, what I feel is, a good idea. It will also be a secret idea until it is done. None but I and the stone dwarfs know about it thus far, but I don’t feel comfortable putting it down here, I know that there are some who sneak into my room to read my journal when I am gone.

20th of Galena, Year 33, Late Summer
The floors are covered in vomit and filth, but I am pleased to say that everybody is fine. Those who were able to sleep through the moaning felt better the next day and helped others sleep. I just received news from Ross that trading went well, and that, by selling all our useless wooden items alongside our trade goods, we were able to buy everything but the cloths on their back. Even The flesh dwarfs room is done.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Unfurnished, of course. All I need is to get him to fill out a sheet that I prepared, and we will be able to fill it with things that will make his room shine. As for my secret project. . . . . Its almost complete!

25th of Galena, Year 33, Late Summer
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
She just handed it back in. Now we can get started.

4th of Limestone, Year 33, Early Autumn
It’s too late to halt construction now, so I will reveal my plan to all.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
If you can’t guess by now, shave off your beard and call your elf
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
If you still don’t get it, report to the training room. We will need your intelligence there.

20th of Limestone, Year 33, Early Autumn
I went beyond the wall to make sure I could leave it open for the traders to leave. I saw Mafol walking out there quite quickly. “What are you doing?” I asked him. “Getting the poults.” He said. “From outside the wall?” I replied. “Yep. They were born there.” I Couldn’t believe it, so I followed him.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
He was telling the truth. Somehow, they were born outside the walls. This makes absolutely no sense. . . . its like the world is a poorly made kids game. Bah, what am I saying? That's Hedonistic speech.

Never did finish putting in everything. Sorry. usual I wait a but before I upload.
And, yes. It seems to have been that one part of the floor. I don't know how, but, it allowed the lobster to (fly?) crawl through. The battle was really short though, for a forgotten beast.

Hmm... Going to have to remove the stairs below those upstairs and make a ramp leading down to the stairs that are connected to the downstairs (that will be walled over.)

But HUZZAH we survived the !!DANGER!!
