I was up there at the start of the summer, Fargo seems like a nice place to live if not for the weather so much.

Alright one more day until we hear about how much Toady succeeded/failed with hillarious conciquences perhaps?

[Mephansteras]

Hopefully. That assumes that he doesn't get stuck fixing lots of compiler issues and random crashes from the new changes.

Not sure if this is the place to discuss it, but.....

"Defining the arrangement of the dwarf's facial features and picking out names and positions"

From Today's update.

Are we going to be able to see subtle differences between the dwarves? How will we know what they look like?

[Sean Mirrsen]

I believe he devoted a special section of the current development schedule specifically to descriptive paragraphs about these kinda things.

I don't remember anything about creatures even getting distinct faces.  I'm now wondering how in the hell placement of facial features will be communicated in game.  Maybe even random ASCII like Star Zoo or something, knowing Toady.

Anyone else plan on modding in Potato Men?

He then went on to be the inventor of Deoderant

Here is a reach but any chance you could use the generators from Armok to give us a 3d pic of the dwarves face?

Text.  [Since graphical representation is out of question at the moment.]

I've actually half-seriously planned a dwarf portrait program that gives a fancy 2d-art pictures of your dwarves (and perhaps even human/elf/goblin merchants/diplomats/soldiers...) with size differences, hair/beard color/lenght, scars, clothing, weapon etc. Doesn't actually sound that hard but needs awfully lot of drawings (3d would be more flexible but is hard to make good looking). Another problem is to get the data from the game, but there's already programs that do it with map features so why not?

Might be funny to see those blood/vomit covered naked one-legged war veterans.

...where was his second nose?

Watch Futurama to find out!

I'm half expecting a few bugs where we wind up with Picasso-esque dwarves.
