Quick update! Since I'm focusing in Accelerated Module, this one has some new features. This update has new advance worldgen parameters, a bugfix and new reactions for the standarized instruments.

I'm getting untannable skins from butchering. They seem to go into my food stockpiles and are listed under "fat".

Two creatures I've seen produce this are cats and giant bobcats.

That's weird.
While skin certainly has been turned into globs, those should be perfectly tannable. I just tested it, and everything works as intended.

You need 6 skin globs to produce leather.

Oh, Modest Mod updated ! Thanks for the work that you guys are doing. This is one of my go-to mods and it really does make the DF experience better, without changing much from vanilla.

Just to make sure, there is no way to apply Modest Mod to an existing world, yes ?

Ah, that probably explains it. I think they were in stacks < 6.

For, in order that men should resist injustice, something more is necessary than that they should think injustice unpleasant. They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.

I added one instrument for each skill, priorizing the most simple ones from human history. Those are the Lyre (stringed instrument), the Melodica (keyboard), the Ocarina (wind instrument) and the Split Drum (percussion instrument).

Really happy to see more updates for Accelerated - and ocarinas! (Hoping Meph's tileset comes out for the new version soon, too.) Minor question though, since you mention the most basic instruments - is it possible you meant slit drums, as in log drums?

Thanks you for your support! :D

Nope. Since Modest Mod changes a lot of raw files, you'll need to generate another world in order to enjoy this without problems.

Aren't "Slit Drum" and "Log Drum" two names for the same instrument?

You'll need to merge the files manually, since Phoebus changes some creature tiles.
I'll release a version for that tileset, and for others, when DFhack and TWBT gets updated, but that will take a time.

Apparently someone made working "alpha" dfhack and twbt for the .47.02 version. Called duckpack in DFFD

Sounds right, that being said, the mod has them as split drum. I'm not a musician, but I think that's a typo?

Strange, thought I saw it in mod, too. Maybe it was just in the post. Mind playing tricks on me!

I was wondering, is there any proven FPS benefit to streamlining materials and objects in Accelerated? I know about Meph's post reporting a 25% increase but that was years ago, and only based on a few anedoctal reports... Maybe current users of the mod could weigh in?

I'm sure Meph is 100x more qualified than me to know anything about DF, but I am also sure I have an easier time keeping FPS up using Accelerated. It's hard to quantify, of course.

That having been said, Accelerated also does more than just streamline types (assuming all changes were taken over), and I actually prefer having less redundant stuff to scroll through in lists.

My 25% claim is indeed from a very old version, 34.11. It comes from a lot more than standardization: The original accelerated DF outright removes the more rare materials/rocks, it takes away clothing from invaders and gives them custom armor pieces with larger coverage (less items after a siege), changes the cavern layout, default map embark size, worldgen settings, values in the init/d_init, for example for traffic zones, turns off temperature and weather, uses a few dfhack scripts here and there... it's not comparable to the accelerated module in this mod. I don't think that standardizing makes the FPS any higher in a noticable amount, but you certainly save time by scrolling through way shorter lists in the UI. ;)
