Goblins, evil kidnappers...

Necromancers, uber-evil mages...

Skaven, underground-living ratmen with clans...

Insect hive, zerg/tyranid-style...

Naga, water-based magic snakemen...

[Dirst]

So... I should do everything. Got it.

The important thing to remember is to do everything in the right order

[Meph]

Someone will be happy, because what I want to do, is Necromancers.

[taldarus]

 
EDIT: I agree with Rekov. Do what you want *cough* necromancers *cough*
EDIT2: Oh comeon! A necromancer operating out of a secrete lair  below an inn, using travelers to fuel his dark arts... HOW COOL!

[Meph]

Curious. When the mod started, necromancers and orcs were the leading items, but now the necros are far behind... and humans are almost the most wanted.

Humans... I remember writing one or two workshops for them.

Or 193, to be more precise.

Porting/updating that to the new mod might take a while.

No, many modern computers only have a single core. My dedicated gaming PC is only single core. I do not own a single multi-core device (my parents own a dual core laptop though) and all of my stuff was bought in the last 10 years.

I sincerely doubt that. I can't even find single-core CPUs for sale. What's your CPU?

Ok, sorry for being late on this Putnam, it appears I was wrong. I did a DX_Diag run and here's what I got:

humans...so...human...

[Meph]

Well... Orcs, Humans and Necros next, it seems.

More dwarf content, the followup, will be in the coming update.#

Thats my laptop. I'm really looking forward to DF multi-core support, if it ever comes.

Thats whats in the mod already, in 34.11. Check the older version if you want to play exactly that.

[Meph]

Good news!

Dirst seems to have found the crash-source in The-earth-strikes-back (actually in create-unit.lua) and fixed it.

[Wyzack]

Yes! My human peoples have banded together to get an edge over the greenskin menace!

Seriously though meph this project is your baby and no one wants to see you burn out, so regardless of the poll results you should just make whichever one feels like more fun to you. I had an absolute blast with the old style warlock race despite the literal mountain of bugs, so a reimagining of that would be spectacular. I do hope you keep the "Race doomed from the dawn of time" feel if possible, where they bolster their numbers with undead servants and have a core of 14ish very powerful spellcasters. It was a really interesting dynamic

[Meph]

Why is everyone concerned about me burning out? Modding is my intellectual/creative counterpart to my cycling/touring.

[LMeire]

General mod content suggestion: More cavern plants.

The standard crops are nice and all, but they seem super-lacking now with the hundreds of over-world crops to pick from. Glowing mushrooms that fight cave-adaption. Mold that can be brewed into milk and then matured into cheese. Maybe push the boundaries for "cavern plant" and get some coral growing for organic stone crafts.

[Wyzack]

Mostly just based on experiences with other modders, which admittedly does not seem to apply to you :p The amount of content in the final 34 release was fucking immense and i cannot wait till 43 gets there.

Also maybe reminding people that this is something you do as much for yourself as anyone else, and they are not entitled to demand what they want if you are more interested in something else.

That said Humanity Fuck Yeah humans win again

I mean, I agree with this, but Meph is the one set up the poll. Not so much of a demand as an answer to a questionnaire.
