Did you remember to port of the changes that make mountain goats viable as pack animals? Be default those are the only animals they're guaranteed to have, and the only other pack animal they MIGHT obtain in worldgen would be yaks.

Figured it out, I forgot to add the PACK_ANIMAL tag to mountain goats. It was my bad. I think it should be fixed though. Thanks for your help!

Still looking into why the elves are friendly. I honestly don't mind it, gives me some more trading options in the early game. Still want to know what causes it though!

Are there any other creature raws you've edited that I might've missed? I have to go in and make the changes manually because my raws are already heavily modified with balance tweaks and snippets of other mods.

Edit: Also forgot to give them a TRADE_CAPACITY value, and didn't make them milk-able. Just for kicks I gave them wool instead of hair, should hopefully give me a reliable source of cloth that doesn't involve cave exploration and giant fiery worms...

Just food for thought, but could the lack of contact/thieves/ambushes/sieges be due to the fact that kobold sites are hidden and don't appear on the map? Don't know much about it, but the in fort I'm playing now the humans and goblins don't seem to know about my existence yet. I got spring caravans from the elves but I think that's due to another edit I've made somewhere else, not sure if its part of the mod as I was under the impression that all other civs would be hostile... (no matter, slaughter enough merchants and they'll attack like everyone else. I think maybe they got upset when I stole their giant skunk.)

Started in year 5, around the end of year 7 the elves ambushed. (They got poor Gaykus, my legendary miner. Took all 6 of them to get past his masterful pick-axe skills, he died a hero's death. Held them at the surface long enough for my military to get organized and engage, saved many lives...) Anywho, haven't heard from the elves since, I think the goblins are giving them a hard time. Scouts sent to investigate are finding a lot of abandoned sites. Good chance they're gonna die out.

One odd thing I've noticed is that none of the kobold caravans that come have any goods with them. They still accept offerings though so i can keep raising my exported wealth. (this may be something I've done wrong while integrating the mod with my raws. Just wondering if anyone knew how to fix this.)

I'm going to try and raid a smaller goblin pit nearby, see if I can't alert them to my presence. I'll let you know how that works!

My most recent adventurer was a very successful human vampire. For 5 months he traveled, hunting other vampires and other terrors of the night. He only drank the blood of animals, and harmed no innocent human. He ended wars and united the lands under the banner of his lord. His final mission was to slay a dark creature (I can't remember exactly what it was called, but it was humanoid and scaly.). He accomplished that easy enough, however the beasts final blow caved in his breastplate, making it useless. (It was a bronze breastplate, no access to dwarves or steel on the map.) Exploring further into the beasts layer, I soon discovered that the dark creature had had a child. This child managed to break my adventurers spine, paralyzing him from the waist down. (Lack of a breastplate caused this.) I won by biting the things throat out, then dragged my sorry adventurer back to his home lord, crawled into the basement and retired. (On my way home I tore through 2 packs of wolves and a pack of dingos with nothing but my lower left molars. The dark beast had knocked the rest of em out...)

Hey! Remember me? I'm just wondering what all you have medicine-wise in your mod, and how far you could go with it. Specifically I am interested in applying ointments to various wounds to fight infections and aid healing, or brewed drinkable medicines that do things like numb pain or heighten senses. Is any of that possible to do? What about giving medical care to your companions? I have some other ideas on alchemy as well, but I won't bombard you with those just yet. If your interested in my thoughts on alchemy and medicine please let me know!

Thanks!

Tried to do something cool with a red panda man. Fashioned him a stave out of wood and started training him as a badass warrior monk. Beat a sasquatch to death with my fancy stick, then a zombie giant tiger. Things are looking great for my adventurer till the bastard gets his lungs ripped out by a flock of undead ravens, kills them all, then suffocates to death.

Hi, me again! Any big difference between goblin boys and goblin huntas?

So I need help... I play df on a mac and I don't have the wonderful option to extract files into a specific folder and have everything work smoothly, and I have no idea if I've put the files in the right places. I have a hunch that you might know something about that...

I try to generate worlds with adv. params like you said(I'm just using the default param sets) and the game crashes when I hit confirm to accept my new world.

Please, I am so pumped to play this mod, and I am certain i have done something wrong to cause the crashing. If its any easier, could you pretty please make me a working mac version of your beautiful mod? (It just needs the mac versions of DF and DFhack and the mod files inserted by someone who's not an idiot.)

If you can help I would greatly appreciate it, I'd even make a graphics pack for this mod in appreciation
