is it possible for it to tell the diference between Raised and Lowered Drawbridges?

when mine raise, it seals tight with the wall, so i want to see this

I was going to say 'not yet' because I don't know how it's stored by DF, but actually your question has prompted me to think of a workaround that might work. I'll have a look over the weekend.

are you going to be able to adapt it to d15 and d16?

[Phazorx]

I'm very interested in this as well, however i'd suggest making it possible to adapt it to any version with same aproach that Dwarf Manager uses - preconditioned save with known elements that can be found in memory footpront by the tool itself. that way it is semi-automatic even if/when new version come out.

I'm trying to make some way to distinguish my roofs from my floors. I rembered that in an earleir version, up stairs with no down made gently sloping tiles, so I tried in this fortress. This was the result.



Anyone know how to make it look more like a roof?

[Shima]

I believe they do it with ramps and walls.

Wow, this thing is great.

Behold: Boatveiled.

Awesome!

Holy carp! Can it be? After all these years, finally a fort which uses microcline and actually LOOKS GOOD while doing it!!!!! 

[Draco18s]

While I'm not duplicating this it did show me that I might be able to make use of some of the microcline my map has.

Shame that the major portion of the structure will be made out of rock salt.

There's good tourism money in that apparently.

[Kulantan]

Pit me with the clowns if I'm wrong; but are those giant dwarf faces that spew magma?
If so, as has been said, holy carp that is a fort worthy of Armok!

[Danarca]

That's absolutely stunning!
Baboonanza put the pic in the original post!

Now what we need, is a better system for liquid levels, especially water/lava falls.

I second this motion. Even though I have to say that I have absolutely no idea how better would look like/be possible because there is only so much dynamic to be had in a static picture of falling lava. I mean... to actually have a stream of lava out of those faces VF would need to simulate the hot stuff in places where it simply isn't, and that could break all kinds of things, I think.

Also about the fortress... wow. I never even saw the faces before Kulantan pointed them out but goddammit, my first thought was that it looks like a delicious cake with icing on top. It's... a magma spitting oceanbased fortress that somehow manages to be menacing and delicious(ly artistic) at the same time. I have to congratulate you, Sir, for this is AWESOME.
