My mural needs help
« on: February 07, 2009, 06:33:17 pm »

I have the perfect image picked out, all the stones needed to build it save for two. Are there are dark brown/light brown stones? I think jet is one of them, but I have to import it and don't know yet.

Not really, unless you mod the colors.  Yellow and mustard are the only "brown" spectrum colors supported.

These: http://www.dwarffortresswiki.net/index.php/Color are the colours in vanilla DF.

You can see other possible colour palettes here: http://www.dwarffortresswiki.net/index.php/Color_schemes. You can also mod your own (the second link has info on that), but DF only supports 16 colours currently.

Good luck with the mural, be sure to post links when you're done  ;D

Checking back on them in comparison to true brown, they are indeed a mustard color.

siltstone is brown in the dystopian rhetoric tile set.

I always just found it peculiar that the police are always able to pin the crime on you 100 percent of the time. The fact that organized crime rings exist at all without being bombed to hell by the national guard is evidence enough that this is not strictly the case in reality.

 Well, these are vanilla colors. Edited colors look much better. The one I used for Healedabby is a personal favorite, mostly because everything is muted enough to prevent contrast problems.

The wiki is notoriously inaccurate on subjects at the cutting edge, frequently reflecting passing memes, folklore, or the word on the street instead of true dwarven science.
