RAW EDITING ( Creature_Standard) Yeti
« on: August 16, 2021, 10:16:06 am »

Hi Guys

Have been going around the forums looking for an answer that I just cant get. Maybe some of you can help.


I Like to RP alot with Dwarf Fortress and to do this i need to edit the RAWS.


Specifically "Creature_Standard" Raw File.

So here is my problem.....


I am looking to make Yeti's Trainable so that I can cage them and maybe trade them ( kind of like a labor camp trade ect ).

I have made edits to the RAW .. in the yeti creature i have added Biomes for desert, glacier, forest ect... I increased population and also littersize.. removed [Savage] but for some reason the yetis still are not appearing in any map that i enter.

Am i missing something here.. I have made sure the DF Raw and the Save file Raw are the same but this still isnt doing anything.. I also remember making edits a long time ago and the map i entered had loads of yetis.. ALso made sure BIomes are added doe the specific Biome i enter but still no joy here.

I am using the Lazy Newb  ( specifically "Spacefox" Tileset )


Can someone help me here???

Try restoring SAVAGE and changing FREQUENCY from 1 to 100, then embark on a savage glacier. That should do it.

You might want to try the region-pops command in DFHack. For example

region-pops boost YETI 10

should make them 10 times more likely to show up.

I'm pretty sure that won't have any effect on the frequency of their arrival - instead, it'll just allow more of them to appear (and die) before becoming "locally extinct".

P.S. If you don't get this note, let me know and I'll write you another.
It's amazing how dwarves can make a stack of bones completely waterproof and magmaproof.
It's amazing how they can make an entire floodgate out of the bones of 2 cats.

The biomes might be populated with creatures during worldgen, in which case you need to generate a new world to have the changes apply. If you did that already, I have no idea how to help.

During play.
