Moving some modded creatures over to 40.24, and I am getting

*** Error(s) finalizing the creature AQUILOUP
undefined local creature material set to default: AQUILOUP FEATHER

when I start up.  The animal is supposed to have feathers, so I'm not sure what's going on here.  Has that tissue template been axed or something.

BTW here's the raws for the creature:

Joke's on you, I'm single and rather unattractive.

WWUD if there was in-game barbecue?

Some of them will have been former members of other civilizations.  If you get a dwarf that's been parts of tons of civs, that's a red flag for a possible vampire.

But y'see, that would require tequila, which in turn requires agave plants.  At least dwarves' judgment can't get any worse under its influence.

What's the point of leaving the mountains just to embark on mountains in a different location?

Why can't we use stepladders to rescue those morons who get themselves stuck in trees?

Do something so depraved I'd get thrown in jail just for typing it out

WWUD if she had a hankering for chocolate chip cookies?

I have had, in the past, issue with DFHack causing the game to crash suddenly, but apparently not this time around.  You have to weigh the options:  is stability more important to you, or being able to find out tons about your game with a few keystrokes?

I've thought about humanoids such as nymphs, because they're usually where there are trees or water, and swamps have no shortage of both.  I tend to go with the "make it useful", "useful" meaning it can be butchered and/or tamed.  Not really sure what you'd do with those things (lily golems?), except perhaps get special wood.  We have a sore lack of green-colored lumber in DF.

Then again, people never had a problem with factory-farming mermaids, so I guess they might be a place to start from.
