I need one thing:

A world generation file or seed (For the current version) that provides an island small enough for a single embark screen.  That not only means that it fits in one embark screen but that it is also small enough to actually run with reasonable FPS.  The smaller the better.

In exchange for your services, following my approval of the product, I will donate approximately 1000 Yen to Toady in your name.

I want this too.

badly.

One question:

1) Do you care what size the world itself is?

1) Do you care what size the world itself is?

My initial knee-jerk response is no.  Since you have no interaction with the world (no migrants, caravans, etc.) I don't think it matters.  So go ahead and try your hand with pocket worlds...

I think this would work best with high volcanism, and lots of water.

No progress from anyone?

P.S.  Forgot to mention 1000yen = $10

I had spotted one in one of my worlds that is very, very close. Not close enough, unfortunately. 7x9

I'll keep my eyes out though!

Yes this has been my frustration as well...

A new market is born!
EDIT: Misread the first post, I thought he was paying the person who genned the world.

..have decided that it's far faster to tinker with the world gen world painter to find a reasonable site

Hi!

A couple of questions:
So, you mean an island which fits completely into the local map (that is the map you play on has water on every side)?
Are there any special requirements (availability of certain features; note that absence of aquifers is probably impossible)?
31.03 save file will be fine for you?
EDIT: Sweet water only or also Salt Water allowed?

I may try to gen something for you, just for the fun of it (no guarantees, though). But you are of course welcome to donate for Toady One.

1) Yes water on every side.  As small as possible, waves and big embark maps sink FPS big time.

2) No special requirements that I can think of.  However wild aggressive animals on the island is a bonus!

3) I think any DF2010 version save would do the trick as long as you can port the map to the current version.  My understanding is that this is possible?
