I've been trying to finish the new version to no avail. Seems you can't tell the reaction that you just want corpses.. not bones, not skulls... but Noooo!, it wants to use all body related parts. 

Also from that.. I still cannot get it to produce fat from said corpses, It likes to make corpse related muscles instead.. sure they are cook-able(yay?) but you can't stash them anywhere between production and cooking, so they just clutter up the crematorium, and really, I don't want my crematorium to produce animal muscles instead of fat.

As it stands, sadly, you can only cremate the items in the previous version.. you will still have Miasma problems from non-buturable corpses until we can figure out how to distinguish between corpses and bones.

But at least it burns the vermin remains, right? Right now they are not used for anything, so it would be a nice way to get rid of them while getting usable ashes.

Yes, it currently burns remains and rottable, unused, butchering scrap.

Probably won't work, but I thought I'll ask anyway.  Could there be any chance of this smart device solving the "other" problem, namely having over 50 blood splatters on the same tile.  Would be cool if blood splatter can be treated as item and burnt to nothing.....  then again, contaminants probably work differently...

I'll do a quick test as blood, ichor, and goo are all outlined in the material templates.

What do you call by butchering scrap? The non-cookable parts bug was solved, so you can now cook almost anything.

Scrap being Hair, sinew, cartilage, and nervous tissue, are currently unusable for anything other then clogging up refuse piles.
these items seem to be the only ones able to give me real animal fat as well.

Finished the quick test.. fluids like blood are completely ignored by the crematorium.. I guess you will have to wait for a cleaner to come by and scrub that away.

I thought you mean intestines too... Yeah, hair and sinew are cool to be cremated.

Also I tried to work with blood too, no success yet...

Not directly related to the crematorium  (works great at getting rid of vermin! I threw away my old save games for a new one just to get this in), but wrt to blood, is it possible to say set the boiling point low, such that it will evaporate upon being created?  Just a random tot.... (I'll try it when I have time to search the raws)

edit: Adding on: just changing raws for a savegame won't work... at least not visibly yet.

Won't that boil the blood of the dwarves while it's in their body?  Leading to Fun Times?

I attempted to make a magma crematorium, and I was able to make the magma building, but neither reaction works in neither building.

The changes I made:

-added [FUEL] to reactions
-added a new custom workshop, with the name and id "Magma_crematorium" and the additional tag [NEEDS_MAGMA]
-added the workshop to entity default

Can you try that on your working copy?  I'm not sure why it isn't working for me.

[sketchyd]

ah, fixed it.

added the tag [BUILDING:MAGMA_CREMATORIUM:NONE] to each of the reactions, so it would appear in the magma crematoriums as well.

nice, thank you.. ill put together a new version on the weekend..

Also might want to add "blocks" since I don't think most dwarves are going to walk on a cremation oven XD

Mmm, as to the uselessness of hair, couldn't you set up some sort of custom reaction for a loom to weave hair into thread and then into cloth for the textile industry?
