HAH. I found a way...although I have no idea how it works. I've got few high mountains and lots of flat deserts, and for some reason most of the running water in the flats is actually streams rather than brooks. Fuque me if I know how that works, but right now it really looks that way.

So on my way to creating a world full of savage deserts, I encountered a little problem. There are, you see, definitely goblins around. And there's 7 kinds of dwarf to choose from.

But no humans. And, of course, no elves. Which angers me immensely, since I created non-savage forests especially for them to dwell in.

So then, help me with this: How can I ensure the presence of all four species? Dwarves need mountains, obviously, and elves need forests...but that's as far as my knowledge goes, and the wiki isn't exactly verbose on the subject. I already scaled the age cap on world gen back to year 2, and all that's placed is dwarves and gobbos, so it's not just a case of freaky extinction patterns.

I'm using PerfectWorldDF for the whole affair. Nifty programme.

I really should pay more attention to those details

I want the river-cake, but I also want to eat it without all the hills

Dwarves won't, and neither should you. Unhealthy capitalist sugar-water...tastes awful, too.

But now, adamantine cavern brew? Sounds too much like "Nuclear Waste Disposal Zone Brew" to me. I'd stick to my dwarven rum, thank you very much 

You've got huge 100 z-level shafts in the middle of your map and you're complaining? For shame!

Any news on the Master of Dungeons, then?
