I don't suppose we could get a 40.21 version? >_>

No raw changes, so the 40.19 graphics are compatible with 40.20 and 40.21 without issue.

I am very new to Dwarf Fortress and am trying to get just a few mods (or whatever they are officially called) to help get the game at least a little easier to learn. These graphics are at the top of the list, and I have tried everything i could find on the internet and this forum. And yet it still wont work, is anyone else experiencing issues? And if so, please help!    I did everything that this site and the one where you downloaded it said to do. But for reasons i cannot figure out, it still doesn't work...

Have you tried the Starter Pack?

I'm a noob at this, but I have an issue. I'm running TrueType, but I'm getting this ugly grayish brown background on the menu in game. How can I make it BLACK? Screenshot below.

Use the no-higlight version tileset.

Thank ye, sir! ^^

I have not, I looked at the pack. But I would like to keep the game as mod free as possible. Basically, just Dwarf Therapist, This graphics set, and workflow. (also having trouble with!    )

Does anyone know if the Mayday 40.05 graphics pack will work on 40.24?

[PeridexisErrant]

It won't.  Try https://github.com/fricy/DFgraphics

I'm not at my pc right now. Let me get this straight. This compilation has the updated graphics? Are they easily extracted from the pack in case I want to avoid all of the mods included?  Thanks.

[PeridexisErrant]

Yep, the Mayday repo is just the graphics.  Download as zip, extract, and drop over DF to install.

 So I've tried this. It works for the most part. My miner dwarf though seems to be using the example dwarf instead of the Mayday miner graphic. Thoughts?

You need to take out the instructions to use the example miner inside the graphics_example.txt file.

Alternatively, you could just delete graphics_example.txt.

Thanks burned. I was thinking it had something to do with the example.

Heyo!

In the Starter Pack, the Cheesemakers (and I think maybe a couple other farmers?) show up as brown skeletons with Mayday graphics.

I feel like this is unintentional (like maybe starter pack is using outdated Mayday graphics?), but I wanted to check first.

Just checked, and as far as I can see it's configured correctly. No clue why it shows up as a skeleton for you.

Code: [Select]

[CHEESE_MAKER:DORFS:3:24:AS_IS:DEFAULT]Can you upload a save somewhere for investigation?

[evictedSaint]

Sure thing.  It's persisted through multiple iterations of Starter Pack, and I only recently thought to bring it up.

OH, dang, sorry, after double-checking I realize I made a mistake.  It's not cheesemakers, it's actually a couple different ones.  Gelders and Pressers, to be exact.  I guess I just remembered that it was some obscure farming skill. *shrug*



You can see a couple pressers and gelders here, as well as a couple who have both gelding AND pressing as their jobs and default to "farmer".

Gelding is pretty new, so I guess a sprite never got drawn?  Not sure about pressing, though.

Do you still want a save?

Yes please for the save, I'll look at it. What you say sounds about right, the new professions never got a sprite and a config, so they default to ... for some reason ... to the skeleton sprite? Toady did change some professions, I guess that could be it.
If this happens in Mayday then I other sets are should be affected. hmm

[evictedSaint]

Here you go.

Does the Starter Pack use the most recent version of Mayday?  Idk if that could be the issue, if he's already done the new professions.
