Hi kiira,

Long time no see. Was ecstatic to see this mod has been adapted and uploaded to the Steam workshop, but quick concern: I forgot to save the original vanilla graphics file (as you recommended in the installation instructions) before overriding it with the "graphics_creatures_layered" file. Is the original file just lost forever now, or can I still retrieve it?

I realize this isn't totally relevant to the mod or necessarily within your area of knowledge, but wasn't quite sure where else to ask.
You should be able to verify the game in Steam to get original file back.

Thanks. How do I do that? Not great with Steam functionality beyond just installing and running the games.

How do the tags ATTACK_FLAG_BAD_MULTIATTACK and ATTACK_FLAG_INDEPENDENT_MULTIATTACK interact, especially in fortress mode combat? I've seen them used for the weapons. If an attack is flagged as multiattack, how many times can it hit compared to one without a tag? A comprehensive answer about these tags would make me happy, thank you :)

ATTACK_FLAG_BAD_MULTIATTACK       Multiple strikes with this attack cannot be performed effectively.
ATTACK_FLAG_INDEPENDENT_MULTIATTACK       Multiple strikes with this attack can be performed with no penalty.
Don't know how many times it can hit, but this is actually a vanilla question so maybe the wiki can help

Hello I'm literally new on DF, how can I play as Cambion/Succubus race? Is it "entity_highfantasy_type4_cambion" ? And do I need to edit anything or the civ are they the Half-fiend civ?

Yep that's right, just add that file. No changes needed.

Left click on Dwarf Fortress in your steam library, then right click on it, on the menu that appears left click on properties, left click on local files, left click on verify integrity of game files.
Wait till it scans the game files, if it finds any files that have been altered it will redownload them.

It worked, thanks so much!
