Mine:  I bought a 22 inch wide-screen monitor JUST to see more of the map in DF.

[Tenebrais]

If it's resolution you want, there's little real need for an expensive new monitor - I have an old CRT that runs at 1600x1200 (and higher, but that screws up the aspect ratio). That said, I've never tried sizing DF to it...

 The size of my various saved succession fortresses, fortress versions, tools, hacks and projects only comes to only 254 megabytes?!

 I suppose I actually clean out the map export images, but what is the size of other peoples DF folder? That is, ignoring map exported images for things like the DFMA. Those raise the filesize like nobodies business.

350mb here in total.
I only run 1 fort at a time though (Well, 2 technically but 1 can't proceed.. 3 STEPS (as in pressing .) it crashes) and most of the size comes from different versions and folders with messed up raws.

[TheDJ17]

Wow guys, impressed.
My DF folder is only 25.8mb and stored on a 700GB External hard drive with all my other fun things.

[BigFatDwarf]

Hrm. I had 326.2 mB of crap, and I only ran 2 Large maps and all the visualizers and hack tools and the shitdump ala raws folder.

Anyhow, my folder currently contains 0 bytes. Finally upgrading to 40d13 just to try out the new visualizer.

[Maggarg - Eater of chicke]

400mb for me, and the only non-df file is a visualizer.

[Sutremaine]

Probably around 250MB with tools and everything, and I have seven versions installed. I think most of them are devoid of anything interesting, but they can just sit there until my laptop gets a spring clean.

[Simmura McCrea]

648.3MB, across 8 folders, each containing the game.

[ikkonoishi]

831 MB
Contains pretty much every version from df_27_176_38c. Also a few utilities and the archive zips. I tend to only have 3 or 4 worlds per version.

[GenericOverusedName]

I once had my recycle bin reach 10 GB (yes, GIGABYTES) due to all the deleted failed map generations. Then I realized that I could edit the world gen parameters to get those tropical mountains... D:

[PencilinHand]

6.88 GB in my .../dwarf/... folder on a 92.1 GB drive(laptop).  I have cleaned it out twice since I started playing not quite a year ago, it is due for another cleaning.  There are currently 12 folders including one copy of .40d11, 12 two of 13 and 3 copies of .40d plus some older versions.

[Rowanas]

wow. my total comes to 132.3 MB. Strange thing is, my adventurer DF folder is twice the size of the other two. Thinking about how memory-greedy most modern games are, this is amazingly small for how much pleasure it gives so many people.

[Rowanas]

Yay! I put it in to see if anyone was perverted enough to pick it up. Sensei, you have not disappointed me.
