So, when I loaded up 34.08 last week, I had access to wheelbarrows. Since I loaded 34.09 in the other day, I don't have wheelbarrows at all - they don't appear in the embark screen, and my carpenter can't make them, as they don't appear in the menu. Is there a way to fix this?

Thanks.

Perhaps it is your tileset?

[saintjebus]

I was using Ironhand both times. Let me change it up and check that.


EDIT: Nope, tileset isn't the problem. Same thing happens when I use Phoebus.

[FuzzyZergling]

Did you bring over the save, or is it a fresh download?

[saintjebus]

Fresh world. Made it after .09.

EDIT: I also can't make minecarts, but my miners have the option to carve tracks.

[slink]

Try it without any tileset, just to be sure.

[FuzzyZergling]

This is just a suggestion, bit maybe try updating to .10?

[saintjebus]

Ok, I've updated to .10, and went in with the default tileset. No luck. Still don't have the option to create wheelbarrows.

[Tirion]

Are you sure your raws aren't older? Specifically, does your entity_default.txt have any lines about wheelbarrows and minecarts?

[saintjebus]

Hm. No, it doesn't. How do I update those without losing my created worlds?

If you are trying to upgrade to a new version of DF and keep your saved games, then you need to perform several steps.

1) Your existing DF directory should be renamed.  (I like to rename mine from df_linux to df_linux_3410 or whatever.)

2) After extracting the new version of DF, consider renaming the new directory, to avoid accidents....  Do not extract a new version of DF into an old version's directory.

2.5) Edit the data/init/init.txt and data/init/d_init.txt files in the new version.  Don't copy the old version's init files over, as there may have been other changes that you'd lose.

3) Create the data/save/ subdirectory inside the new version, since that isn't created when you extract the tarball.

4) Copy (recursively, e.g. with cp -a) the data/save/regionN/ subdirectory (which is your saved game/world) from the old DF version to the new DF version.

5) If there were changes to the raw files between the two versions, and if those changes may be safely applied to an old fortress without crashing (depends on the changes!), then you must edit the data/save/regionN/raw/* files accordingly.  Otherwise the existing save will continue to use its original raw files.

If you aren't on Linux, adjust the instructions for whatever platform you're on.

When in doubt, it's best to generate a new world.

Shove these in item_tool. Make sure to use global raws, not the save file raws.

Should fix it, if everything else is updated.

Ok, so  I apparantly went totally off the rails when I did this, because every time i opened up my save game, it opened up two different windows of DF, one of which was my save game, which still did not have the  went ahead and re- downloaded the Lazy Newb pack, and re- updated to 34.10. Still can't build wheel barrows or mine carts in my carpenter's workshop.

The Lazy Newb Pack has not yet updated past v0.34.07, so the graphics packs included in it will not have wheelbarrows, even if you install DF v0.34.10 over top of it.

Grab the updated graphics packs separately from the modding forum if you want wheelbarrows.

lol. I still haven't gotten it to work. I think I'll just suck it up until LNP updates to 10. Thanks for all your help.
