DF Modding / Question about animal products made out of inorganic materials
« on: June 09, 2015, 04:40:02 pm »
Greetings, i'm trying to mod a new animal into the game, and i need some direction on what to do.

The animal in question has it's bones made out of iron or a material with similar properties and specific "shearable" gems that grow on it's back, is there a way to make these things into the game? I want the animal's bones to be able to be used as some sort of weapon/trap/armor material since i want them to have similar properties to iron, and also to add the shearable gemstones on it's back, giving them a proper gem value and making them fully usable in a jeweler's shop.

I suppose i'll need to make a separate material_template.txt/inorganic_material.txt for the mod in question, but how would i specifically tell the engine to look into those .txt files on the shearable and bone products?

Thanks in advance.

Masterwork DF / TWBT problem with V.6.1
« on: March 06, 2015, 11:09:17 am »
Greetings, i seem to have a problem with the latest MDF mod for 34.11, the mouse controls are all wonky and whenever i try to do a box selection for digging, the camera is automatically placed in the center of the map at z=1, i suspect it's the TWBT plugin that does this because that also happened with the LNP r67 for 34.11, my question is, what can i do to fix this? Installing a newer version of TWBT for v34.11 doesn't do crap, as those versions work for dfhack r5 and can't find the ones for r4 (if there ever were).

So, wut do?

DF Modding / Modding new metals/alloys
« on: January 08, 2015, 12:55:09 pm »
Greetings, i've been trying to remove some features i don't really like or won't use from Evaris' mod Orichalcum Dwarf Fortress, i tried something easy like adding the new alloy "cupronickel" into my game, but failing horribly.

This is what i've been doing so far to add, cupronickel.

Adding this to entity_default.txt to the dwarven civ:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Adding this into inorganic_metal.txt:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

And adding this into reaction_smelter.txt:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

So after adding this and generating a new world, soil gets changed into weird crap like "never-still cloth" and mineral veins are all messed up.

The error log gives off a bunch of duplicate raws and i seriously have no idea what to do now, i haven't modified neither inorganic_stone_layer.txt, inorganic_stone_mineral.txt nor inorganic_stone_soil.txt...
