[Lord Dalek]

Alrighty guys, I am working on this full steam! I will post the first version of it after today on All Hallow's Eve, upon The Witching Hour! I am adding religion, editing nobles, adding weapons (just throw me a suggestion) and more! I will regularly update and I want all suggestions you can give! Also...I have no idea how to mod skills. So that would be a wonderful bi of knowledge to gain.

A suggestion from my side: Taking dwarves, replacing them with humans, renaming the nobles and changing one weapon... that would result in dwarf mode with some changed names.

You cant remove boulders or make farmplots go on rock, but you can use water to muddy the rock, enabling farmplots to be build. That works in vanilla Df, without modding.

I would go for some more additions that make them different from dwarves. For example GavJ posted a very nice realistic steel mod, without the need for flux, and Stahls Armory pack has plenty of armors, shields and weapons your humans could use.

[Lord Dalek]

I realize that. Right now, the modding is really at a "hey, can I do this?" stage. I will try to make mining an unfeasible way of living as a human. though that will require some thought. Also, I will look into that steel mod.

I am open to any ideas for additions, and already have one or two forming in my mind. For example, I could play on the whole "slaves" idea (as humans find slavery acceptable), and make a "peon" job.

Though a legendary slave would be odd.

A really nasty cave adaptation syndrome, maybe? As in, the higher the CAVE_ADAPT, the worse it gets.

[Lord Dalek]

Yeah, so that at even, like, 600, it gets dizzying to see the sun? Or, as an even more complex one...(if possible) reverse cave adaptation so you need to be in the sun and being in the dark makes the person sick?

EDIT: I removed "tolerates site:decorated cave", so I assume migrants (as "tolerates site" is used by them) won't come to an underground-based civ? It's just a very temporary fix, if one at all.

On an unrelated note except for the title, has anybody made a dalek mod?

[Lord Dalek]

Dwarf-sized thing with one eye and breathing fire? Also made of steel?

I want.

UPDATE NO.1: First image...I always use graphics packs (ironhands here). Still feels just like dwarf fortress, tempted to make stockpiles underground and such. Seemed to have fixed halberds. Any Protips or suggestions?

Haha, first thing I thought when I saw this thread. "What about Lord Human's Dalek mod?"

[Meph]

If you need more ideas, feel free to have a look at the human mode from Masterwork, and copy what you like. Maybe it has a feature or two that are to your liking.

I immediately thought this too.

Thank you! That will certainly help. Even though I have no clue how to choose another race in masterwork...time to find out.
