Dwarf Fortress > DF Modding

Is there a way to alter a dwaf's material preferences?

Truean:
The following are useless, because they don't exist.

"Horn, amber, ivory"

IF I'm going to mod those out, is there a way to make dwarves prefer a certain thing over another? I'd prefer to have an armorsmith at start that prefered things like

Steel, dog leather, shields, etc

I"d like a weaponsmith with similar preferences, etc.

It's just a thought.

KaelGotDwarves:
You can't mod a single dwarf's preference directly, but the items preferred are the result of the civ's [METAL_PREF] and etc. tags in the entity_default file. You can make them like different types of gems, stone, wood, and metal as a civ.

Fantastic, how? Please:).

I tried

[METAL_PREF: STEEL], as an experiment.

no luck.

Yeah, a specific [METAL_PREF:x] should work... how many dwarfs have you checked after trying this? Generated a new world?

Truean:
I've tried two test embarks (14 dwarves) on a newly genned world.

Not a single Dwarf liked steel.
