#1: Put the Alarm Siren in the Military Garrison, it fits and is one buildings less.

#1: Keep the Alarm Siren seperate, I want to have it near my other levers.

#2: I have traded with Gnomes, build Artificer and Weather Control Station.

#2: I have NOT traded with Gnomes, did not have the chance to build their buildings.

@Xen0n: That would be difficult, because those are massive changes in all raw files, more or less. I use dummy plants, trees and animals with a common name and redirect all other materials through them. Inorganics I reduce to a lower amount...

Thanks for the reply!  I'll just keep my fingers crossed for that potential 'FPS DF' mod   Looking over the mod proper though I may get it as is and play around; it looks quite impressive!  Do you happen to know whether the method of raw altering that the old Dwarf Fortress Mod Manager used could be used to integrate other minor mods into this, or is it such a total conversion mod that it isn't easily modified?

Any idea on a timeline for a linux version of masterwork?  I would love to play this mod.

I have a few bugs to report for mac.
In arena whenever you are creating a creature and modify one of its stats it immediately creates the creature.
In fortress mode pressing the (b)uild key will crash the game

(by the way, from what i can tell, this is an awesome mod.  Keep up the good work!)

Erm, what do I need to do to get the neat Masterwork GUI thing to work? My computer just gives an error message about the aplication not initializing properly.

How do I get the mod to work with Dwarf Fortress? I have unzipped the .rar but have no clue what to do with all the files. I have looked at the masterworkmanual.bat file and while it has extensive explanations of how to use everything in the mod, it has no instructions on how to get the mod to work. I am also surprised that there are no "how to" instructions stickied in the DF Modding forum!

Hey guys, if you are using windows all you have to do is unpack Masterwork and then there should be a 'Masterwork Settings' .exe that brings up the GUI. You should not have to mess around with any other files besides that. IIRC when you launch utilities from the GUI, such as soundsense, you will need to point it to the gamelog which is found under the 'Dwarf Fortress' folder. I hope that helps.

Meph, I am not sure if this was intended or not but now that I am getting my forts past five years I am constantly getting into scuffles with my elven allies. In Vanilla I wouldn't care but they happen to be very useful in your mod, I mean they bring dragons! The problem is that they keep telling me I am demolishing the forests and must stop. I barely cut down 1/3rd of the map when I first started to clear space for my large above ground fortress and since then only used extensive tree farms which appear to trigger their diplomats. When I agree to limit the amount of tree cutting I did I saw the number climb as I processed steeloak or my regular farmed trees (Farm plot trees just to be clear). If it was intended I guess I will have to get pets early and kill the pointy ears after a couple years but if it was not intended is this possible to fix or no?

Same as normal. This mod changes nothing other then fixing crap and adding awesome stuff.

It's being worked on currently.

How does the thatchery deal with stacks of plants? Does it split the stack and take 2?

Are dark strangler vile forces supposed to have weapons and armour? IIRC, they didn't in earlier versions and served as an easy stepping stone to the harder hordes. With weapons they tear through my guys though, especially lashers.

Keep up the fantastic work Meph, you're the greatest!

eheheh 7 zombies killed 2 war dragons, seems legit-.-
how can 3 heads, 2 chitins and 2 hands kill 2 WAR DRAGONS ?

Team work I'd say, the heads overlook and shout orders. The chitins distract while the hands sneak around and choke the dragons.
