quick question about the settings
« on: June 25, 2013, 12:31:30 am »

i was just wondering if there was a way to turn off the simplified settings, the one i am referring to would have to do with the food stock piles, when i butcher i only get simple meat and tasty eye instead of cow brain cow eye cow tripe etc... or the milk and cheese menus and such... i have a rather large food industry and when i only get 1 stack of meat instead of 4 stacks of seperate types of meat my cooks run out of food rather quickly when cooking lavish meals, also i kinda like the novelty when i get a forgotten beast and getting forgotten beast eye lasagna... i may just be nitpicking but is there a way to return it to normal settings

In the settings, you can turn on and off simple meat and all the other simple settings.
I don't remember which tab it was. I think the center one. However you have to start a new game afterwards.

Edit: I don't know if the simple settings really change anything on the amount of meat you get. I thaught you should get exactly the same number, but of the same type.

You will have to generate a new world, not just restart the game or start a new fort. Just to clarify.

you cant turn of the standardized animal materials. you can get back to organs, yes, but they wont have the creature name on it...so a cow heart will still just be a heart.

thats what i was wondering, i have the simplified meat turned off so i get organs and sometimes other types of materials like pancreatic tissue or nervous tissue, but my biggest concern was do the meats from say a forgotten beast retain their value or do they revert back to a standardized price
