TTOOAADDYone!!!

If in-game dwarf fortress looked like this... everyone here would never see the light of day again (not to mention the millions which would suddenly not be turned off by the UI)

(and have a "classical mode" for all the ascii lovers plz... (or the poor of graphics card peeps)  )

why won't people stop doing this, misspelling toady one, and demanding a better UI/3D interface.
It's already in the works, and 3d will NEVER get implemented(other than the Visualize feature that is currently broken).

It's not THAT improbable.

Rainseeker:   I have one from Hishan, [who] says; [13]'What do you think about the 3D utilities for Dwarf Fortress, like 3Dwarf, Lifevis, or Khazard, and would you ever consider using such a system in the main Dwarf Fortress program?'
Toady:   If you want to consider it, the visualiser is such a system. It's garbage, but clearly I don't mind the overall concept of having a 3D representation or something, and I think it's cool that those are there so that people can see their fortresses. I get a little more uncomfortable when it moves over to the territory of 'we're going to have a 3D interface for the game, and write a whole frontend' or whatever; but to the extent that they [are] static visualisation programs, I think they're really cool and I think it's great that people can see their fortresses; and I've really enjoyed a lot of the pictures I've seen. People posting like giant bridges, giant statues, and cathedrals and all kinds of things that they've been working on; I think it's really cool. For me to actually sit down and do something like that; obviously my first attempt was a total failure, so I'm not really eager to get back into myself but I could do it at some point.

I would rather that Toady Works on the next version's features then a shiny interface... and in a futile attempt to put the topic back on track,

it's the closest thing I've made to a megaproject.

i have an odd happening, a towercap inside a statue?!?! also needs a tower cap model lol.

Wow, that fortress made me think of Tribes 2.  There was an Arena map or something that looked like that.

That's probably bug report material.  What do you see in-game when you 'k' over that tile?

This actually looks quite cool. As if it is covered with moss or something. Also the contrast of dark and green is always nice effect.

Spoiler: "Bug with ramps" (click to show/hide)

Not sure what caused this

In game it's just two ramps next to each other near walls; every other corner built the same way works fine.

Edit: oh, never mind.  I know what's wrong.  The ramp on the right has a floor above it.  I'll have to remove that, I don't know why its there.

Spoiler: "Megaproject Progress" (click to show/hide)

I intend to re-wall some spots on the central tower in microcline so that every waterfall is backed in the bright blue stone.  I have to do it as I go though, as building scaffolding up the side or doing it from the inside is too difficult.

[LegoLord]

My guess is that a sapling spawned over that grass tile before the statue was placed.  It's possible that, since it was not a construction built over it, the sapling grew into a full tree.

[DennyTom]

The grass tile is a part of tree model?

[zchris13]

Yup.

Agreed, it does look pretty cool.

Spoiler: "Another bug" (click to show/hide)

Bridge is inside out, and should be in the red dashed area.

[Baboonanza]

That's an interesting one, I haven't seen it before. What state is the bridge in? ie is it retractable or rasied/lowered and what is it's current position?
