Why is PerfectWorld no longer in the utilities?

Why is PerfectWorld no longer in the utilities?

I don't use this pack, but PerfectWorld is still listed in the contents at the beginning of this thread (which was last updated yesterday). To help gather a bit more information: what pack version are you using? And do you remember what version you had before?

For reference: I just downloaded 0.47.05-r03 of this pack, and it has a "LNP/utilities/PerfectWorld" folder. I don't know whether it works, however. If that's missing, maybe some antivirus software could have done something to it.

So the game loads (minus some resolution issues that I have semi sorted) but then crashes as soon as I strike the earth
either I get to the last part of embark with the flavour text and it crashes, or I start an adventurer and it crashes. What be I doing wrong?

I've heard there is a Text Will Be Text (TWBT) bug that can cause crashes at embark.  If you're experiencing that bug, embarking with graphics turned off should let you start a game successfully.  Then as soon as you're in, save & exit, then re-enable graphics and it should load fine.

The setting Schmaven refers to is under the Graphics tab and called Print Mode in the Advanced section at the bottom. Print Modes 2D and STANDARD are your alternatives.

The Starter Pack has updated to 0.47.05-r04!
As usual, you can get it here.

This release is all about the amazing DFHack update - I'm especially excited about new scripts to deal with webs, and the new set-timeskip-duration script, which allows you to resume worldgen between embarks!  There's too many cool things (and bugfixes) to list though, so check out those release notes to learn more.  Time to thank all the contributors and maintainers, and then... strike the earth!

0.47.05-r04
 - updated DFHack to 0.47.05-r2
 - updated TwbT to 0.47.05-r2 (unofficial build by thurin)

I've noticed the Soundsense's script soundsense.lua isn't under the hack/scripts folder, which makes me sad, because it does important stuff (and prints some garbage, which is why I comment out line 246). Could you maybe copy it to hack/scripts or add the path in dfhack-config/script-paths.txt? (It also should be called from an onMapLoad*.init file)

Is it still needed? What does it actually do? Nevermind, I tried it and I see what it fixes. Good find. I was wondering why certain things were flaky/stopped working.
Although a bit spammy. I mean I really don't give a fuck if their skills went rusty.

Performance tweaks generating garbage. Been this way for some time, I just finally got around to manually overriding it, but it deserves fixing.

Enable Performance tweaks.
onMapLoad_PyLNP.init gets:

multicmd tweak fast-heat 100; repeat -time 1 -timeUnits months -command [ multicmd cleanowned X ; clean all ]

Output is:

What you get when you run clean by itself with no parameters.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Usage:
  Removes contaminants from map tiles, items and creatures.
Options:
  map        - clean the map tiles
  items      - clean all items
  units      - clean all creatures
  plants     - clean all plants
  all        - clean everything.
More options for 'map':
  snow       - also remove snow
  mud        - also remove mud
  item       - also remove item spatters (e.g. leaves and flowers)
Example:
  clean all mud snow item
    Removes all spatter, including mud and snow from map tiles.

Replaced with:

tweak fast-heat 100
repeat -time 1 -timeUnits months -command [ cleanowned X ]
repeat -time 1 -timeUnits months -command [ clean all ]

Works properly. (Multicmd edit seemed to work manually input but on a fresh load did not work, but this did.)

Hrmpph...actually nothing seems to work properly on map load.

Hey Community,

after a long break I have started again with Dwarf Fortress.
I just downloaded the pack and started DF, generated a world and chose the standard Embark scenario.

When unloading the cart, I noticed that there is still the bug with the crutch (looks like brown pants), the splint (looks like a brown mouse) and the quiver (looks like a brown chest). (LnP default setting Phoebus Tileset Pack)

A long time ago I found a thread with the solution to this problem, but unfortunately I can't find it anymore.

Why the bug is still there? When it will be fixed? How I can fix it myself.

UPDATE:
I have fixed the error by taking the data and instructions from this page.

https://github.com/DFgraphics/Spacefox

UPDATE 2:

hey PeridexisErrant, can it be that some tilesets or graphics sets are not up to date?
Could you possibly update them.
When updating manually, I get some errors (closing DF while loading).

with twbt and meph+vordac lite every time z to zoom to alert is in the wrong place for me. any way to fix this?

Sadly this is just a result of using TWBT. The "zoom to" is hardcoded to the underlying vanilla grid. The original TWBT developer has apparently left the project, and it's just being maintained until hopefully Premium replaces it.

quick question, when installing mods do I need to put them in the mods folder in the pack or just install them manually?

I'm aiming to have a couple of different worlds with different mods
