The more FPS the better. I usually embark with 150-200 FPS, once i get 50 dwarves it slows down to 80-100 Fps and more than 50 even force me to play with 30-50 FPS. :/

(For all that haven`t done so yet, set the G_FPS Cap to ~15. It speeds the game up so much.)

All you bastards are lucky.

I'll take anything better than what I'm getting in the tower fort competition:



I hate my laptop. I hate it with a burning passion. It's probably been around since Toady started making DF. My desktop would be running at ~40-50 fps, but it's in Indiana, and I'm in Maine.

I can get 25 FPS in a fort with 30 dwarves on my netbook :b

40 FPS on my dekstop with 120 dwarves.

I like having about 100 FPS in the beginning, so the "boring" part of starting a fortress is done quickly :D
