Well I was hunting a Dragon and it was certainly flying around outside, i dunno is this a bug?
There was a cave in the indicated area, but the Dragon was never inside it. I made sure with every adventurer. No Dragon only Troglodytes and evil Birds.
I'm also pretty sure I was starving but maybe it was dehydration.
But yes it is an older version, maybe i should try the new one. Does it make it easier to hunt down the (fleeing/hiding) baddies?

hi,

i have a question regarding quests.
all of my adventurers seem to die the same way, either i can't find the quest enemy (i can find the "lair" with the help of the "T"ravel function, but most of the time the enemy is nowhere in the indicated area), or i find the enemy hurl a few rocks at him and he runs away and out of sight. in any case i'm doomed to roam the countryside until my resources run out and i starve to death :(
this is especially annoying because my poor laptop is only barely able to run DF and so travelling (or doing anything for that matter) takes ages! that is also the reason i had to abandon my fortress, with an average 15 FPS i sometimes wasn't sure if i had just pressed spacebar or not...

so is there any way to track the baddies?

Not only do they forget they can't fly, they don't even have the grace to look majestic and worth protecting on nature shows.  Instead they molest the host and have to be removed by the handler.

This is disturbingly true:

Well, after seeing the videos and reading up a bit I had to go along and also support the Kakapo.
They are just awesome! Join camp Kakapo or we'll climb your back and...


And although the Japanese Macaque is still sorely missed, I've found an cool article on Capuchins.

It shows that they are actually able to learn to grasp the concepts of money and basic economy. After learning all this, guess what they did. They started soliciting.

I want to donate for the Japanese Macaque or Snow Monkey http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_Macaque but they are not on the list >:(

It would be awesome to include them along with hot springs the possibilities are endless!
But most importantly we could see this:


They should be treatet as a whole new race, much cooler neighbours than stupid elves.

Fixed

awesome!

Presumably the fact that we already have a kind of macaque factors into this omission.

But it's the wrong kind  :(
Then again, maybe that's true. It would probably make more sense to mod the existing type and make them spawn/hang out at hot springs :)
Now who to choose instead...
