Not quite a bug (I think), but I found a named Giant Desert Scorpion in the middle of the forest on my way to fight a named Grizzly Bear.  Can named creatures leave their biomes?

Well, are you going to tell it where it can and can't go?

Another good one would have been "Of course it's not a bug... it's an arachnid!

Nah, but I killed it.

Edit: Also, whenever I am ambushed by wolves in Adventure, I can't travel because "Someone can see me" even tho everything is dead.

Just stick in the [NO_SLEEP] tag.

This wouldn't work with existing saves, only new world gens, right? 

I did not investigate too much into it, but when I opened my fort from the previous version into the new version, after a short time I noticed my refuse stockpile was filling up with turtle shells and bones. I think I had only one dwarf on fishing duty, so this must be some kind of bug.

No, it works with existing saves.

[smeej]

Is this new?

"You can't travel until you've stopped bleeding."

Does this mean I can't [T]ravel to save myself dying of a Mortal Wound? I'm used to a quick jog repairing the loss of a major organ!

Regional Prospector no longer works ;_;

No it doesn't

I rather expected this release to break to break existing saves somewhat.  I am sure the future Armies stuff could get by on saves that don't have all the extra history, but it is much more immersive with the new/current histories.

I am really looking forward to setting up my fortress for the world domination phase.

I'm an idiot. I deleteted 38c and my fort-in-progress, and downloaded the new one, only to realize that (a) Mike Mayday's graphics pack won't work with the new one because it adds so much.

Then I learn the new version has a number of show-stoppers, and my favorite utilities (Regional Prospector and likely Dwarf Foreman) are broken. Oh well. C'est la vie, I'll wait for some updates.

What a nifty first megabeast encounter.

Toady, if I was a girl then I'd offer to have your babies as soon as you fixed the crippling bugs.

Edit: Damn, can't get it to work. I'm trying to use a custom tileset and DF is acting like I did something wrong, like get the filename wrong. But I didn't. I've double checked everything. Maybe I want it too small... is there anyone else out there who can't get 8x8 tilesets to work?

Edit 2: Any custom tilesets I put in won't get recognized by the game and when I open it all I get is a plain black screen.

[Benitosimies]

Time for Adventure!

Thanks Toady. You do awesome things.

[Skanky]

Hooray and such!
Although I have to now wait for the end of the day before I can leave work and start playing this.

[muwahahaha]

WHOOOOOO WHOOOO WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOO WHOOO...... whoo

Beautiful. The bug of dwarves sleeping forever is intentional; it reflects how Toady needs sleep after countless hours of bug-squashing.

Then I learn the new version has a number of show-stoppers, and my favorite utilities (Regional Prospector and likely Dwarf Foreman) are broken. Oh well. C'est la vie, I'll wait for some updates.

Yet another victim of "utility" addiction. Tsk, tsk.

I did the same thing.  I simply forgot to copy the actual bmp from the older version's /data/art folder to the new version's.  I felt dumb afterward.  You might have a different problem, though, and thus might not be as dumb as me.
