Nice find on the dwarf_race_index!  How did you get 0x015cbe9c ?  I was able to get the creature vector but got lost as to the next step.

Also, i've started poking through the source to look at how the memory structures are sized.  I saw this /* OLD Stuff from the 40d series that no longer works the same way and got spooked.  Chances are there will be similar things for this version.

Hey all, trying to memory map for the new version.  I'm actually pretty lost on this. 
Using these links: http://code.google.com/p/dwarftherapist/wiki/MappingNewVersions  and  http://www.reddit.com/r/dwarffortress/comments/glttb/computing_dwarf_fortress_memory_offsets_by_hand/

I came up with..

and i think the nickname offset is offset 0x10 ?  But this is where i've gotten lost.  Thanks for any help!

WTF, i embarked as humans?  FUN!

On first play, CTD   Patched in Ironhand and it's running well.  Will be trying therapist memory update thing as soon as i find an embark.

Thank you !

Oh, Migrants.  *Checks therapist to see how many*  29.  29!

You could also just make a Patrol Route and make 1-2 soldiers do the route as part of their schedule.   My schedules are usually:
3 train
3 patrol (or 4 guard burrow for static defense)
1 dangerroom (which just means 1 guard DR burrow)

The patrol route takes them all around the map and they kill zombie elephants and anything else hostile.  Occasionally catching thieves and child snatchers.  But you could add obstacles along they way like artificial rivers, 1z dodge-em traps, dangerroom-esqe upright spear corridors, and fun things like that.  This way they aren't sequestered somewhere and not helping the fort.

Keep in mind though, with a surface army you will lose all kinds of dwarves.  A dangerroom is pretty much required to keep a trained army with high losses.  You can dumb it down though by only using one spear and having a very small number in there at once.  Some dwarves never take the DR guard duty too. 

I agree that the axe head doesn't look very stable anymore.  Might have been stored headdown and partially rotted.  Not too big of a deal though, the rest of the handle looks great.  If it does break, restoring it won't take too much work. 

DU's main danger is inhalation of the dust, where it will sit and emit alpha particles into your lungs.  However, outside of the body it is very safe.  The alpha particles can't penetrate the skin and can't even go through a single sheet of paper.  So DU shrink wrapped or held safely inside a container would be perfectly safe to have hanging from your mail.  I use to sleep on a pile of 25mm DU round ammo boxes and have no ill effects other than mild super powers of never sleeping anymore
