Updated Dwarf Fortress, NOTHING is working right.
« on: May 16, 2012, 06:41:16 pm »

So I download the new update, Windows[No Music] because I decided I didn't want music this time, and then after removing aquifers from dirt and deleting the Microcline and Orthoclase RAWs, I start up.

Firstly, I get a "fullscreen mode?" message, which apparently requires either I play on a super small window or complete fullscreen, no adjusting it.

Then, whatever, so I got to create a world. Get through to the "prepare for the journey" menu, and the - and + keys don't work, none of the secondary keys work. Can anybody help me with this? Preferable with both issues, but the second one is the only major one.

It sounds like you downloaded the legacy version.  Try downloading it again as the SDL.  I downloaded the Legacy version and sure enough, a prompt opened asking for fullscreen mode just as you experienced.
