As a modder, this video was wonderful.

Oh good, I was worried I'd be productive today.

So, uh... if any of you have read my/crono30067's adventure Dungeons of Sunnydale, I modded the Drow Pimp into DF. This was my first attempt at modding things, but I think it came out pretty well:

One of his attacks requires Masterwork mod, just so you know.

[Putnam]

Oh shit. You just posted raws. Must... critique...

No, it doesn't require Masterwork; the spells do, however, if you don't post the creature variations for them.

Your FORCE_BOLT_SPELL CDI isn't defined at all...

I'll chalk up your random spaces to forum formatting issues :P

[Soadreqm]

Is Masterwork the one where you have to combine iron with something else to make fireproof iron?

[Putnam]

Haha, I don't think so. Haven't heard that one, at least. I don't play masterwork; it turns DF into too much of a strategy game for me :V

Putnam, remember, this is a strategy game, not a simulation.

he he he.
