Then if no "center on" another suggestion:
My research shows that 576 bytes into the creature is his age (6 bytes or so) is his age. This would be a nice little thing to have in DTherapist

is that 576 decimal or hex? And are you referring to windows 40d16? I agree that could be useful to folks.

yes, windows 40d16 and decimal.

You're getting that error on the project download page?

Well I just downloaded it on another computer and then used my USB to put it on mine but the problem was that I got that error when I clicked on the DwarfTherapist-0.4.1.zip download.

Is there any chance you could remove the new version notification? It's incredibly annoying as it tends to take a couple of moments from program start to check it (depending on intertube connection, I'm guessing), and during those moments the program totally freezes. Or at least make it not freeze the program while checking.

That is odd. The web-request to check the version is a background thread. It should not be freezing the UI. Do you have a software firewall that is maybe opening a window behind DT?

Also, version check at startup is an option in the latest version, so you can just turn it off if it gives your trouble.

There's an option for that already.

I just wanted to say the next release is looking frickn great and is going to have some super hot action in it. 

That's all i'm gonna say, but we all should worship at the shrine of chmod's grundle. Mod, not to steal your thunder but had to tease folks a little. Your work and progress is astonishing.

Hey thanks man! I'm now working on the incredibly boring method of doing gridview upgrades. Since there are so many new column types in the next version, I don't want people to miss out on them, by making them delete the old ones and import the new ones. Gonna be tricky. Maybe I can just "accidentally" delete everyone's settings and write the new ones out, but this is going to be an ongoing process as new things are added, and I need a better user-story for it.

You could always have a "first time run" pop-up that asks you which setting they want to keep, and what of the new stuff they want to add.  It'd be a pain to update for each new version though.

I noticed that a child gets its own immigration wave, would it be possible to assign a baby to the same wave as its mother?

Hmmm, 0.4.0 and 0.4.1 aren't working for me on XP. I'd open an issue and upload the .log files, but even with -trace on I'm not getting much. Pretty uninformative repetition steps too, I double-click the program, it windows thinks for a second, and then I get the classic "DwarfTherapist.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close.  We are sorry for the inconvenience."

Anything I can do to get you some more detail? I'm really bummed, your recent improvements have been fascinating!

Do you by chance have an AMD processor? I think this is a confirmed fixed bug. I got more aggressive with compiler optimization at the 4.0 point and set a requirement for SSE2 (which I thought all modern processors supported) but apparently Athlon's don't get it

It will be fixed in the forthcoming 0.4.2 if this is the case.

AMD Athlon XP... 2000 I think. Not one of my custom built babies (which have all since died at my hand), so I don't know its specs off hand.

I'll be content to wait for 0.4.2, and hope that does the trick!

Yep, Athlons can't run 0.4.1 since I screwed up some compile flags. 0.4.2 should be ready very soon! Sorry for the long wait.

You could always have a "first time run" pop-up that asks you which setting they want to keep, and what of the new stuff they want to add.  It'd be a pain to update for each new version though.

So I've solved this in the following manner. From now on (0.4.2+) DT will come with a set of compiled in "default views." These cannot be edited, but can be copied. The copies can be edited, or you can create wholly new custom views. Your custom views will be kept between versions and can be imported/exported as usual.

The only ugly part is going to be the upgrade from 0.4.1 to 0.4.2. Where if you had old "custom views" that use the names of what are now "built-in" views, you will be forced to rename them on first launch. It's ugly but there is no data-loss, and seems to be the best way forward.

I noticed that a child gets its own immigration wave, would it be possible to assign a baby to the same wave as its mother?

Unfortunately, the immigration wave grouping method is pure guesswork based on in-game creature ids. There is no sure-fire way to know when a dwarf showed up (that I have found). So take it or leave it, but it won't ever be 100% correct
