I started working on a config that generously light up the fort and use statues as light sources:

I also added a sunset and twilight in the day cycle.

Anyway I love the plugin this made me design my latest fort with decorations in mind.

Btw i have a version that has both item and creature lights: here But it's still untested and not sure how to implement (in a fast way) the item flags. Namely these ones  are all the same:haul,equiped,inBuilding,inContainer. OnGround and useMaterial should work (haven't tested it yet)...

OMG this plugin is amazing!  Dwarf Fortress just took Brogue out for dinner.
This link includes a compiled version for Mac using universal so it should run on most systems.

It's ALIVE!!! Sort of. Performance is not ready for prime time though: my test fort with 120 average FPS went to around 40 on daytime, and 10 at night. Still, it looks awesome.

About Baugh: i think Toady One mentioned that he disappeared somewhere. Theoretically somebody else could implement it just as well. I can even point to the line where it needs to be put.

Theoretically this new renderer should work better than Baugh's version, IF Toady decides to support it... AFAIK OpenGL and TTF is implemented, problem is it's only working on linux at the moment.

The Internet-Install-Guy is coming by tomorrow, then I can move away from this netbook and run my real PC again... I'll check IRC and try to find Baughn and see what he can come up with, concerning the OpenGl vs. TTF issue.

Boltgun: Can I merge the first lines from your build into mine, with the different colors for sunrise and sunset?

Sure, use any part you want.

Warmist, the game always crashes when you window it... if you cant fix this, why dont you add a hotkey that disables rendermax when people press F11? It would eliminate that problem.

It crashes when you disable it. There is rendermax disable. You can bind it to anything.

[Meph]

wait, it even crashes when I enter "rendermax disable" and the go into window mode and back to fullscreen? I have to test that.

Yeah, I was wondering why F12 quit on me.

[Boltgun]

I failed to build the plugin on linux so far. After fetching 32 bit libraries (and busting my video driver and unity for some reason), I got the latest dfhack release to compile but not for the plugin itself.

I will try again with the master branch of dfhack  and see if this improve. If not, I'll post the log.

This is amazing.

However this:

Strange, it does not crash for me when I disable it. However resizing game window makes the game stuck.

[Meph]

Doesnt crash for me either.

Its because you use "nil". Your plants emit no light, because you tell them to emit no light, but let other light through. Did you copy from glass/gems?

Try: addMaterial("PLANT:bitterroot",{0.4,0.4,0.1},{0.4,0.4,0.1},2)

The 2 is very low btw, for cavern plants I use a lot more.   

[Deon]

I see! I did not understand the syntax fully (or rather did not read into it)! Yeah, I thought glass was going to glow for some reason. Now I see that it makes sense that the light just passes through. Thank you!

[cango]

I am using a not-that-bad laptop but still can't use STANDARD. No OpenGL. Any way to take care of this problem?

[Meph]

cango: No, it needs opengl.

deon: the first value is the light it emits, the second value is the light it lets through. so in your example it was nothing to emit, and some blueish color that is added to light that passes it. That way you can shine white light at a blue gem-window, and the resulting color behind it will be blue.
