Hey guys, I'm having a problem where my resolution is squashed using the starter pack: http://imgur.com/a/fyMyi

This resolution persists during actual gameplay, and also in windowed mode, if I try to force it to my native resolution (1920x1080).

The problem disappears if I use DF vanilla, or switch to ASCII mode in the starter pack. Any help is greatly appreciated.

That strange. Is your "Fullscreen" Width and Height set to "0" in the "Advanced" tab of the Lazy Newb Pack launcher?

I tried 0 and I tried manually setting 1920x1080, same result either way.

Might be an opengl mode limitation.

Does it happen in vanilla?

[Krombopulous]

Nope, the problem disappears if I use vanilla, or switch to ASCII mode in the starter pack.

Hmm actually the problem also goes away if i use any print mode other than the default (TWBT), any downside to TWBT_legacy or Standard?

[jecowa]

I don't know exactly how TWBT_legacy is different from regular TWBT, but the graphics and text won't look as nice in Standard mode.

The Starter Pack has updated to 0.43.03-r08!
As usual, you can get it here.

It's been just over a month of quiet updates in the DF community, and the results are beautiful - a multitude of updated graphics packs (bugfixes and some new tiles) is just the beginning!  Meph has drawn a new high-resolution graphics pack based on some unfinished work by Obsidian, which deserves your attention if you have a large screen.

And perhaps most impressive is the latest Armok Vision update - it's gorgeous as ever, and now you can order designations from the 3D interface.  Truly, this is a brave new world for Dwarf Fortress, where our familiar ASCII or tilesets may someday be replaced by a VR-capable 3D interface.

But whatever you think of the possibility, feast your eyes - and strike the earth!

0.43.03-r08
 - updated Armok Vision
 - updated TwbT; fixed many crashes
 - updated Ironhand graphics
 - updated Spacefox graphics
 - updated Mayday graphics
 - updated GemSet graphics

 - added Meph's tileset

Ok, in the new version most of the graphics tiles don't show up for me, I looked up and it is because of the tag "df_min_version": "0.43.05", at the updated graphic tiles json.manifest, changing it to 0.43.03 does the trick.
It is just with me?

[jecowa]

The manifest.json is there to protect you from installing graphics packs that aren't compatible with your version of Dwarf Fortress. Besides changing the manifest.json, you should probably also copy over the "objects" folder from a version of that graphics pack that was intended for use with Dwarf Fortress v0.43.03. Graphics packs are basically mods. Using the wrong version of a graphics pack for your version of Dwarf Fortress can corrupt your games.

Right.. but the new version is running same old DF 0.43.03, why the graphics are for a unsupported version? It happens on a new install, update, anyway I tried.
Also it says I have a different baseline if try to import, and says broken raws if I try to install graphics over copied save.
But when I copied the graphics folder (*and edit the json manifest), twbt and armok to my old version folder r07, all of it worked fine.

A couple of weeks ago I thought it looked like we would be moving to Dwarf Fortress v0.43.05 soon, so I made releases for all the DF v0.43.05 updates to any graphics packs that needed them. I didn't intend for them to be used as-is with DF v0.43.03 packs.

The Lazy Newb Pack launcher has a few protections in it to keep it from messing up your game. I don't know how it does it, but somehow it can (at least sometimes) determine if something isn't compatible and refuse to install it.

Just wanted to ask: what do you do with modded content in my tileset? Because I have things like decorative workshops in the tileset...

Hi guys, what's wrong with dwarf therapist? Skills choise are broken. When i want to change some skills in one dwarven, don't know why, but all saving settings another dwarvens are reboot! I'm don't touch another dwarvens, but they skill will become rebooted (crashed)
Seems problem not therapist. Without therapist i can't change labor settings in dwarvens too. Where my wrong, maybe? Why i can't change labor settings?
