Excellent. Time to build a toad tavern and make a pilgrimage there as a bard.
A few things I noticed in the last version that may or may not be fixed yet (or might be not bugs):
The martial arts quicksilver ability calls BOOST_DEFENSE_MW instead.
I couldn't learn firebrand from a slab, and noticed that [CE_CAN_DO_INTERACTION:START:0] occurs twice in a row under the display name tag.
The teleport ability granted by the magic secret dropped my speed to minimum, possibly because the strength penalty caused to much encumbrance (which only just now occurred to me).
The stat boost and penalties for [INTERACTION:PHOTOSYNTHESIS2_MW] appear to have the same moon phases, barring the first day or so.
Shyguys, amongst other creatures, use simplified body plans which mean I can't snap their wrists.
Sorry for not reporting these sooner.

Thanks, I'll fix those.  (Many of them are no longer applicable though)

I don't suppose anybody would happen to know why like half of the races are listed as NO_TRADE?  They have COMMON_DOMESTIC_PULL and COMMON_DOMESTIC_PACK, what else is necessary?

Wagons.  Your standalone package doesn't include wagons.

Also make sure that pack animals actually exist and are accessible to civilizations.

FYI, I'm working on updating the tileset, and putting tools in item_instrument_mw.txt break the Subtype finder, so I have to number the tool subtypes by hand.
There are at least 150 of those.

I'm planning on having pre-defined instruments at some point.  The procedurally generated thing is a cool novelty, but personally I'd rather know what someone is playing at a glance without having to read its whole description and deduce that it's basically a funky drum or flute or whatnot.

I'm guessing that sooner or later someone will make a real-world instrument mod, and when they do I'll just steal it from them

I've updated the non-TWBT version for the lastest release, but the TWBT version will need TWBT to update.

I really enjoy this mod, but there are a few things I've noticed:

• I can turn fuzzy plants into slurry, but I can't seem to turn that slurry into sheets.
• Slot Machines only let me insert 10 coins, and the 1-9 options are just plain missing from the job list.

I saw, the fuzzbush is missing the PAPER_SLURRY reaction class, it will be fixed.
The slot machine change was deliberate, I wanted to simplify things.  I might put some other options in, although I am planning on changing the Shyguy's playstyle to use a 'dreamwalker' system similar to the Toad's current pipe mining, so we'll see how that goes.

Right now I'm making a whole lot of spells (each spell will have its own secret, so there can be a book written on each one).  I'm going to do some experiments with the Koopas to see if and how different spells "spread" under the current knowledge system - possibly using potions to "meditate" for new spells.  A Magikoopa study hall would be a great way of utilizing the scholar system.  Also - piranha plant paper.

The ability to add thoughts to syndromes opens up a lot of possibilities for 'recreational' substances.  Expect to find fuzzy on the black market.

I've been messing around with koopa alchemy and noticed a few things:

• Quicksilver extraction doesn't have an associated workshop.
• Neither do the coin cleaning reactions, although I'm not sure what I'd do with platinum coins so I guess they might not be finished?
• Since the change for alchemy more grounded in realism, no one can make volatile firestone anymore.
• Sublimating a magic potion still makes a carmot gem, not bar.
• The automation for carmot making tends to get stuck making spirits of salt if not watched, but otherwise works.
• Also, converting carmot to azoth needs a container made of frozen quicksilver.

[IndigoFenix]

Thanks for pointing out all these mistakes, I'll fix them up.

I liked the idea of having red coins be a step in the process for making shining gold, but I don't really know how blue and shining silver coins are going to fit in with the whole system.

Rydel - for some reason, your graphics pack has the vanilla raws in it, which caused it to basically uninstall ROTMK when I told the Lazy Newb Pack to install it for me. When I installed it by hand and skipped the objects folder everything went fine, but you might want to edit your pack to use the ROTMK raws or something, because I don't think anybody is going to want this only for dwarves.

Thanks for the pack otherwise, though! Everything feels much more mushroomy when every last inanimate object has eyes for no discernible reason.

[Rydel]

The graphics pack includes the raw files deliberately, as it changes some of them to display properly.  It only includes the files it needs to make changes to.  It does look like some of these raws are out of date and need to be updated, but it shouldn't remove any Mushroom Kingdom content - the only files it edits from ROTMK is creature_mw_ocean, since the Cheep Cheeps were showing up as meat instead of fish. It looks like it will, however, remove some of the new vanilla tools, like bookcases and quires, until I fix it.

However, if you manually removed the vanilla creatures and plants, you'll need to do so again after installing the graphics.

Speaking of Phoebus,  I was thinking of replacing the Phoebus tiles and creatures still in the set with the graphics from my Rally Ho tileset.  Since both this and Rally Ho are based primary off SNES graphics, they should probably look better together.  However, before making this change, I'd like to know what people think of it.

Some of the tiles have different purposes, so it isn't an ideal comparison.  I can mix and match if, for instance, people prefer the road/minetrack looking Phoebus tiles over the Axle looking Rally Ho tiles.
Current tiles are on the left, Rally Ho tiles are on the right.

Obviously the layout is different, but you should be able to tell which creature is which.
Current (Phoebus) tiles are on the left, Rally Ho tiles are on the right.

Is Rise of the Mushroom Kingdom compatible with 42.05?

[Rydel]

On a quick test, it looks like everything works.  I didn't test everything, but embarking works and building an okay Toad fort works, nothing in the raws looks like it should conflict, and this doesn't need DFHack except for Text Will Be Text, which is optional anyway.

[IndigoFenix]

I updated, since I haven't in a while and the new version looks like a lot of fun.

The main changes in this version are a vastly expanded list of secrets (though they don't tend to spread very easily) and a new system for powerups.  Instead of finding powerup mushrooms growing in the wild, you'll have to pick 'wild forest mushrooms' and 'wild cave mushrooms'.  Toads can identify them, which will usually give you regular forest or cave mushrooms but will occasionally turn out to be powerups... or poison.  Other races will have to either avoid the wild 'shrooms or take a gamble.

Some other substances have been given alternate uses.  Touching fuzzy (or eating foods cooked with their juice) gives a major mood boost in addition to dizziness.  And it's safer than alcohol!

Magikoopas work differently now.  Drinking a potion of arcane wisdom not only turns regular koopas into magikoopas, it can also teach them a random spell, which can then be spread through the fortress by writing scrolls.  But only other Magikoopas will be able to learn them.  The more potions you make, the more powerful your spellcasters will become.

Of course, adventure mode is where the real fun is.

[IndigoFenix]

Just made a tiny update that makes the adventure mode a lot more fun.

Basically I figured out why the wilds have seemed so empty lately.  It seems to have to do with a clash between the seasonal biome system (where each biome has a different set of monsters in each season) and the way the game places wild creatures; basically you can easily end up with biomes where there are very few or no creatures placed for certain seasons.

I fixed this by adding [UBIQUITOUS] to almost all creatures.  Now the road is full of dangers, as it ought to be.

YAY! This mod is amazing! I love it, keep up the good work!
