So I added the fortress defense mode for 34.07 with 0.34.08, and now I don't have minecarts or wheelbarrows.  How can I add them back in?

The only thing I can imagine was overwriting entity_default.txt with the older version.  I tried adding the old one back and restarting the game, but still nothing.  Do I have to gen a new world or just start a new fort?

Should i just not have overwritten entity_default.txt?  is that the problem?

I tried putting the old one back in, but no dice.  Do I have to gen a new world or just start a new fortress to get them to pop back up?

So I tried using this mod with 0.34.08, and now I don't have minecarts or wheelbarrows.  How can I add them back in?

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

I am really excited about minecarts on so many levels, don't get me wrong,

but does anyone else feel like they can't consider playing when there is a version of df on toadys computer that has dwarves with vacuum barrel/bins?

my inner child is whining about now having this NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW

cant we just call it a bug fix?

I keep killing them with amazing efficiency, but then they just send another caravan like nothing happened.  Why no siege?

I've been checking this latest developments almost everyday for the last few months as well as this thread, and I still have no idea when the new version is going to come out.  Can we get some sort of a rough estimate on a date?  I can't keep doing this.

We are all waiting patiently for the new version to come out, but until then, I've been hoping for more combat in fortress mode.  Goblins are the only civ that consistently raid, but after a few years, just a few champions will wipe out the whole siege.  Humans and elves, no matter how many times you seize their trade goods, won't declare war.  I've never been able to kill diplomats or traders.  Either the support doesn't fall at the right time, pumping magma to the surface is a cpu intensive task and very difficult.  For these reasons, dwarf mode, for me at least, is becoming repetetive and easy, and I find myself growing bored. 

I DONT WAN'T THAT!

I'm currently considering downloading the civilization forge mod for the extra races and extra sieges to spice up the game.  I've tried modding the civs to make them siege, but I haven't yet succeeded.
If anyone has any advice for me to add more difficulty to the game, even if it is economic, but preferably more war, I'd love to hear it.  I just want to actually lose a fortress to a siege for once in my time playing this game.
