Questions on DF - Creating a nice environment to run DF on (tilesets&managers)
« on: May 31, 2010, 03:34:33 pm »
- Does Dwarf Therapist work on V.40d dwarf fortress?  The program says it cannot[when run on my computer], which is strange because it is listed as okay for DF2010...

- How do you change the tileset used by the program?  I have Maygreen running on one version of DF, but when I insert MayGreen into the art folder of another version it seems to make no change.

- Does DF 2010 run cleanly or is it crashing a lot?

Cheers for any answers.

This [http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=52451.0] sorta fixes my second question. But if anyone would care to enlighten me on how to insert a tileset into a game I'd be very grateful, I much prefer knowing how to do these things!

You'll probably get more accurate answers from other members, but for DF 40d, if I recall,
DManager only works with 40d16 version and previous ones.

About the graphics, you have to modify the init.txt file to enable any tileset. Check on the wiki for that.

DF2010's crashes have mostly been fixed, the only case I've ran into is when I'm using the squads menu. If you really want to learn up, go to the bug tracker and filter for crash-level bugs. Most have been fixed.

Congrats, Psieye. This is the first time I've seen a derailed thread get put back on the rails.

Version 0.4.2 of Dwarf Therapist works with 40d.
