Okay, so the cave goat booze doesn't actually work yet (as of the first release). They milk the goat, the booze gets into the bucket, but it seems to count as a "liquid" instead of a drink or even a food. So it basically appears to be useless at the moment. The dwarves don't even seem to like pouring it in a barrel.

Here's the relevant part from the raw:


Anyone have an idea of how to get this to work? My intention is to have it be an alcoholic drink, but so far no luck.

ISoB's Gustatory Science Mod

--Description--

In the efforts to broaden the palates of the commonfolk, dwarven scientists at the Gustatory Institute of St. Urist are hard at work improving the variety and complexity of the comestables available to fortress chefs. Cataloged here are their culinary innovations:
 
-- Mountaintech Meat Grinder --

Together with the Mechanic's Guild, our R&D chefs are proud to introduce a new machine that any self-respecting cook would be silly not to have in his kitchen. Simply throw some meat in there, turn the crank, and watch the magic!  Get yours today!

WARNING: Do not stick your hands or feet into grinder. Wear protective goggles and a beard net while operating the grinder. This product not approved for dwarves under 12.

--Dwarven Beasts of Labor--

Dwarven zoologists are renowned for their skill in coming to horrible, bloody ends at the hands of bloodthirsty monsters. However, a few occasionally live long enough to discover new species suitable for domestication while spelunking in the wild caverns deep below the surface.

Boozebelly Goat: A strange cave-dwelling goat, notable for the high yeast content of its milk. By using boozebelly goat cheese as a fermenting agent, dwarves can produce the delicious liquor known as boozbelly juice.

Snapjaw: A large, ornery turtle found in subterranean lakes. While slow on land, their tough shells and powerful jaws make them particularly suited for protecting watery areas of a fortress. They're shells are also a hot commodity among the dwarves.

--Game Use--

INSTALLATION: Included is a Uristmod mod file thing if you don't want to overwrite default raws.

Meat Grinder Workshop
   Build Requirements:

• Builder: Mechanic
• Materials: 1 mechanism, 1 large, serrated disk, 1 enormous corkscrew, 1 stone/wood

Functions:

• Grind some meat: takes one butchered meat (i.e. meat, eye, liver, etc), produces one ground meat
• Make sausage: takes two ground meat and one intestine, makes three sausage
• Process flesh into block (non-meat): takes two inedible butchery products (i.e. hair, sinew, nervous tissue) and turns it into a block-like build mat.
• Process flesh into block (meat): like above, but uses edible butchery products (rotten meat works too)

Danger: The grinder reactions have a small (15%) chance to release a cloud of bacteria, which can cause nausea, stomach pain, fever, and drowsiness (nothing too severe, though).

Boozebelly Goat
Role: A milkable pet creature. It's quite a bit smaller than a cow, so isn't as useful in a meat industry.
   
Related Reactions:

• Ferment Boozebelly Cheese (kitchen): takes one cheese & a barrel, creates booze in the barrel

Snapjaw
Role: A trainable, amphibious pet creature. It's strong and has a sharp beak. Butchering them should give you their shells.

Related Reactions:

• None yet.

--Known Issues--
Custom reactions won't show up if reagents are in a barrel, requiring a work order to start. I think this is a bug with DF.

If you put [INDIV_CONTROLLABLE] on the animalmen civ, you can fly around as a bat man or cave swallow man

Definitely would make selective breeding of livestock easier. Though there should be a chance of horribly injuring the animal, of course!

And yeah, it's "neuter" and "spay." I thought this thread was going to be about implementing card games. 

Sounds like your tile set might be messed up. Press up once on the keyboard and then enter, should Quit the game (either that or it's frozen or something... then use the Task Manager to force quit).

Then make sure your tileset is in the right place & isn't mistyped in the init. If it's a crash instead, I'm not entirely sure what to do. Guess it would depend on what type of crash and when it occured, but since it occurs at opening, it probably is something wrong with the init.

Couldn't you just make them drop a plump helmet upon death? Although eating still living plump helmet men sounds incredibly entertaining.

Urist McSpelunker: Om nom nom!
Plump Helmet Man #2: I'm not dead yet!

Gentledwarves, the solution is obvious: !!beards!!.

I believe the correct spelling is "phat lewtz." Personally, I'm waiting for the day when Toady puts some raid gear in the HFS.

This is Lovebrands, a schist bracelet. All craftsdwarfship is of the highest quality. It menaces with spikes of obsidian, and grants +20 Willpower and +20 Endurance. On the item is an image of Lovebrands the schist bracelet in schist.
