I've never touched a tileset. I prefer to leave the looks of things to the imagination.

Yeah, I really don't want the game to get graphics because I don't want a animation for beating a noble to death with his/her infant I want to imagine it, makes it more fun :dance:
You guys are all high, you can't see past the tileset. Thats stoner talk.
Haha, my farmer just went crazy and drowned in the hot tub in my room.
1:Yes i did save, not abandon,2:i use winRAR (evaluation version wich doesnt... evaluate?)
WHOOOPWHOOOPWOOPWOOP (meaning :D) thank you Kylel999 :D i placed all stuff from the RAR into a folder, and now (after making world, placing my guys,saving and closing it and starting dwarf fortress again) i have continue button! finally :DD

Haha. No problem.
i googled a lot about this, NOWHERE they told about the rar thing, so thank you a lot :D
oh and about captnduck's videos: they made me start playing this,and he explains all basics good and is funny at some times (and just having luck random thinks occur, such as a baby that he suddenly found back in a river :O)
It's usually common knowledge that you're supposed to unrar files when you play them as otherwise it tends to fuck up stuff which is probably why you didn't find anything about it. :rolleyes:

So apparently DF has mermaids.

You can make Mermfarm if you embark near the ocean, Mermbones + Craftsdwarf = profit
it'd be cool if they had underwater cities you could go to in adventure mode, somehow.
[QUOTE=Orkel;20781493]If you learn playing with maydays god forbid now of all times, when the new version is knocking on the door, you'll be pissed when you have to relearn what everything is because it will not work with the new version until it is updated (which will take time). You'll have to play the (supposed) 55a with ASCII.
If I were you, I'd learn the ASCII now, and play the current version with it, and also the new version when it comes out, and if you really wish to switch to maydays, do so when it's updated for the new version.[/QUOTE]
I don't know about everyone else, but after learning with the tileset, I could understand the ASCII as well. I don't think most people use tilesets as a crutch. I merely prefer the way the ground looks more congruent, but I also like that there's accurate representations of things. Imagining a dwarf cleave a goblin in half is no harder while using a tileset than it is with ASCII.
Can I get added to the player list? It would be about time that my nick gets put into it.

I've been trying to figure out if there is a feasible way to build a fortress under the ocean, I know rock stays built if you cave it in, will a structure stay built if you say... build it over the ocean, then hack off the supports and drop it in?
[editline]05:12PM[/editline]
or perhaps a ridiculous system of pumps is the answer, use a massive pump system to practically drain the ocean (at least on your section of the map) build your fortress then disable the pumps?
[editline]05:12PM[/editline]
I must now figure out how to construct this megaproject.

1. Build fortress 1 tile lower than the ocean.
2. Channel out everything around fortress.
3. Channel into ocean.
4. Deal with megalag until your fortress is surrounded by water.

That's the reason I wanted to learn without a tileset. I could tell people "I don't even see the code anymore. I just see swordsman, cat, barrel..."
I can't wait for all the vomit abominations that will be created from the random critter thingy

I want to see how Adamantine will be implemented, or if there will be a metal equal to Adamantine (or at least somewhere between Adamantine and Steel.)
[QUOTE=Canuhearme?;20784996]I want to see how Adamantine will be implemented, or if there will be a metal equal to Adamantine (or at least somewhere between Adamantine and Steel.)[/QUOTE]
Adamantine as a metal will be very light, but super strong, making it ideal for swords and armor but bad for blunt weapons like hammers and maces.
As you dig into the earth, and discover new caverns, one deeper after another the creatures and surroundings will become more and more "corrupt" the deeper you go until you finally hit the fun stuff.

So it will get creepier and creepier the deeper you go?
Now we'll FINALLY get the Balrog we've always wanted.
There will be Adamantine HFS, you'll have to kill 'em to get the Adamantine.
