This update, or the entire mod? Because one comes earlier than the other.

You know, I normally dont wish long bus rides on people, but in this case: Go ride the bus Meph. World tour in a bus. Without windows. Or stops. Nothing to distract you from this mod.

Anyway, aside from borderline torture, any ETA on the new version?

[Meph]

ETA new version is today.

Tomorrow I got a 800km bus ride.. so... you get your wish. Stupid Belarus only gave me a transit visa, 2 days... no way I can do 1300km on a bicycle in 2 days, so its 2 nightbusses I take. Will be in St. Petersburg on the 3rd, visiting Deon.

Uploading... 30mins and it should be done.

I finished the Archeologist and added Armory and Weaponry, which upgrade item quality. Take a crappy sword, add a couple of worksteps, get masterpiece sword. Same for armors, trapcomps, etc. Costs fuel and time for each step, so having a highly skilled armorer or weaponsmith is still better.

New Dwarven Workshops:

 - Added Alchemist to Dwarves - Transmutes metals, makes artificial gems, makes gold from lead. Needs Orichalcum to be build.

 - Added Finishing Forge - Makes tin, copper and bronze bars and items without the need for fuel. Early forge for quick militia.

 - Added Liaison's Office - Calls migrants and caravans in exchange for gold coins.

 - Added Archeologist to Dwarves - Sifts through rocks, identifies fossils, relics or treasure and restores them.
Relic => A weapon or armor piece with good materials. (20 possible outcomes)
Treasure => A metal chest with bars, gems, coins or other valuables inside. (20 possible outcomes)
Fossil => An old object from a forgotten age. Rather random, can be good or bad. (20 possible outcomes)

 - Added Armory and Magma Armory to Dwarves - Improves item quality. Take armor, helm, glove, greaves, boot or shield, and a boulder and fuel to raise its quality by one.

 - Added Weaponry and Magma Weaponry to Dwarves - Improves item quality. Take weapon or trap-compnent, and a boulder and fuel to raise its quality by one.

Notes: Important: Don't mess around with the GUI too much. First page, Settings, is perfectly fine, but the civ tab is mostly placeholders for now. The two things that are intended to be used are GNOMES and SUCCUBI, both are playable now. Hopefully Boltgun and IndigoFenix can say a few words about their current state.

Current Errorlog:
(Gnome-related, using materials that I have not added yet, it will fix itself when I add Warpstone)
*** Error(s) finalizing the reaction TINKER_BRACER_WARPSTONE_GNOME

First off Meph - amazing mod.  This is the sole reason I still come back to DF. 

I may be doing something dumb or stupid with the new version but I can't seem to get it to work.  I'm searched and couldn't find something similar.  I try to open the latest version and getting error "Not Found: data/art/curses_640x300.png" which in turn won't open the game.

Sorry if this is a dumb fix or I'm missing something.

[Meph]

Seems like a tileset issue. Did you switch tilesets, and if yes, to which?

I know ironhand had an issue, which I fixed in my dev version. Obsidian Soul should work, Phoebus too. The rest I havent tested yet.

[Hydarius]

I may be getting a bug to. Dosent matter which tileset I use I cant see the wood part of trees, almost thought they wherent there until my dwarf cut them down and the leaves showed up.

other wise it seems to run smooth

[Rex Invictus]

Who is doing the kobolds?

I am.

I cant really judge how it should look... it would help if you post a comparison screenshot. Like "this is how it looks" and "this is how it should look".

I am.

Are you deadset on doing them? Because I'd love to try them.

[SuicideRey]

I'm having a little problem here I can't disable the creature sprites! Or rather, when I do disable the option the game seems to use the wrong tileset.
Here, a screenshot should do the trick, it shows my settings and what I get.

I remember having this issue on older versions as well. I mean the ones that weren't updated to DF2014

Phoebus tileset in vanilla:


Phoebus tileset in Masterwork:

The black squares are trees.  There are also graphics being used like the square next to the green X, which looks like roots.

Only new to using Masterwork, but it is looking nice, can't wait until it is finished.
