This is just a continuation of the work Igfig started, correcting a few errors in MM itself, and also adding more vanilla bugs to the "squashed" list.

All changes were taken from suggestions within the MM2.1 thread (see link to the right), plus a (very few) of my own.

To install, just extract the archive on top of your vanilla DF installation. DFHack is recommended but not required.

Note 2/25/14: I have now written a few small optional modules for this: https://dffd.bay12games.com/file.php?id=8444

Changelog for v.2.1b4:
Corrected a small error that was resulting in butchery yielding "partial remains" instead of bones



Changelog for v.2.1b3:

REVERTED the change:
changed SCALE to tan into LEATHER, for compatibility with more leather mod

This was causing things like "helmet snake fatty chest". Seems to work fine with Igfig's original changes - let me know of any unexpected behaviour
---
FISH_CAVE and LOBSTER_CAVE pops reduced from 25000:50000 to 2500:5000, as the former was returning errors upon embark

changed SCALE to tan into LEATHER, for compatibility with more leather mod

Adjusted many material_template densities - this won't have much effect, but should weight things using template defaults a bit more accurately
sources used: "Physics of the Human Body" by Irving P. Herman; WolframAlpha.com; Wikipedia.org
---
FISH_CAVE and LOBSTER_CAVE pops increased 1000x, per Urist Da Vinci's recommendation (see thread- http://www.bay12games.com/dwarves/mantisbt/view.php?id=57030
This should create "normal" amounts of cave fish/lobsters.


Changelog for v.2.1b1:

+ Giant armadillo caste names are backwards with male called "sow" and female called "boar".
+ Giant Tortoise and Desert Tortoise don't appear in game because they lack the [LARGE_ROAMING] token.

Removed CV_REMOVE_TAG:SPEED and CV_REMOVE_TAG:SWIM_SPEED from cvars, so that most giant critters will retain their natural speed
(aka no-more-superfast-giant-slugs). Most of them didn't have a speed set specifically anyway, so it just reverted to default (dwarvish) speed
