Started a new fort.. [dmedia]http://i36.tinypic.com/13yjlt5.gif[/media] My miner has stopped working and just sits in their room. How do I fix this? Oh, it was PAUSED.

Hey i have a successful fort going, but my dwarves won't collect my enemies who got caught into cage traps and put them near my execution pit (animal hauling is activated on my peasants) in fact the elves riding their horses have been sitting there so long the horses have mated and given birth. :v: anyone know how to fix this? EDIT: oh, it turns out i have to move the rock on the animal stockpile

Wow... I started a new fort and struck adamantine with my very first dig designation.

Damn, I feel like the game is really sluggish. I don't have any measurements, but nefore, the Dwarfs moved around really fast when I started the first fort, and now even from start, while on a starting place which is like only quarter size compared to the older ones (I found out how to resize starting position), it seems terribly sluggish. The dwarfortress.exe process runs at 25% cpu load (on quad core) which obviously means it does what it cans with the single core it uses, and goes really slow. Only possible things which could cause it and come up from my mind are: -I downloaded different version since I started playing (as far I know a newer one, but I am no sure) -I used much higher number of letters on screen with higher resolution, however, I think it hardly should have effect on this, as drawing letters is very simple system task -It's because I got used up to the game, and I don't find it so fast paced as before. I don't exclude this explanation, however I don'f feel that it's that thing. So any advice what it could be? Which version is running the best?

[QUOTE=johnlukeg;17736697]Wow... I started a new fort and struck adamantine with my very first dig designation.[/QUOTE] Yeah, has happened to me too. I dug maybe three tiles into a massive cliff and there it was. It's really rare though that the features set in such a way that you can access the HFS straight from the surface. But of course this adds the capability of breaking sieges in a fun way.

All of a sudden my dwarfs were burning to death, so I savescummed and smoth/fortification'd the right place. I love that method, since you can see where to dig.

[QUOTE=Awesomecaek;17736964]Stuff...[/QUOTE] Version: v0.28.181.40d Nothing else you can do about fps really. You can try using a smaller embark size.

[QUOTE=rckjmsbtch;17738597]Version: v0.28.181.40d Nothing else you can do about fps really. You can try using a smaller embark size.[/QUOTE] Wait, so it is the right version, or isn't? I have 0.28.181.40d. Should I get another, or this is the best one?

How can i start pre-equiped in adventure mod? Like i want a specific set of clothes, how may i start with them?

[QUOTE=KestasLT;17739709]How can i start pre-equiped in adventure mod? Like i want a specific set of clothes, how may i start with them?[/QUOTE] You can't. You only get the gear your skills allow you to.

[QUOTE=Zezibesh;17739773]You can't. You only get the gear your skills allow you to.[/QUOTE] Okay then, how can i get a vest?

[QUOTE=KestasLT;17739808]Okay then, how can i get a vest?[/QUOTE] Go buy one.

[QUOTE=HALP Cat;17739812]Go buy one.[/QUOTE] Lets say i can't find one (generated three worlds and still can't find one) What should i do now?

[QUOTE=KestasLT;17739825]Lets say i can't find one (generated three worlds and still can't find one) What should i do now?[/QUOTE] Look harder

[QUOTE=Kwal;17739837]Look harder[/QUOTE] I checked every store.

[QUOTE=KestasLT;17739846]I checked every store.[/QUOTE] Make a fortress and mass produce them and sell them to the traders. Also keep a shitload in a stockpile.

[QUOTE=Zezibesh;17739875]Make a fortress and mass produce them and lose the fortress.[/QUOTE] That's basically what I said.

[QUOTE=HALP Cat;17739883]That's basically what I said.[/QUOTE] I think i will pre embark with lots of them.

cheating at dwarf fortress. my artic base was abandoned remembered water froze in my holding tank above the depot for the elves and I abandoned.

Wait answer me, which is the best running version now? :saddowns:

Reading through the pages I suddenly got the urge to play Stronghold.... What kind of knowledge do you need to play and understand this game, I guess I finally want to try it out.

[url]http://www.dwarffortresswiki.net[/url] has everything. Just search for some start tutorials, and you can also ask here.

And there are captainnducks video tutorials

[QUOTE=Awesomecaek;17740187]Wait answer me, which is the best running version now? :saddowns:[/QUOTE] The one you already have.
