hmm unusual... i was using the latest mike mayday version. in menu's i got a constant 100 (the setting in the init)
this version likes to hover at ~85 in the menus, with the g_gap at 30 and the fps cap at 100.
hold on while i get a BIG map to try and test the difference in fps hit.

edit: ok tested on the latest haltraded map. both versions hovered at the 30-40 mark so no speed improvement but the extra features are nice.

No, that's not right.

The valgrind output states that it dies inside upload_textures, but I inserted numerous prints in there, including as the first statement; it isn't running that newest code.

Could you run md5sum libs/libgraphics.so to make sure? The output should be b717fd17f6172d1661c48908b2aba0e2.

And just to make sure, you can download http://brage.info/~svein/libgraphics.so directly.

I am very sorry, this has likely been mentioned but I couldn't find it with search

I am glad the whole "pet cat cancels job: too injured" and "X cancels store item in stockpile: item moved or destroyed" have been fixed, but now I get a new announcement "X cancels store owned item: item unreachable" just would like to point it out in the rare event I am the only one

i loaded a pre-40d16 fortress by the way

This is "normal". It can happen when a dwarf gets property over an item that is not reachable (underwater for example).

Okay. Wartender, I'm sorry, but please contact me on irc - I'm Baughn on rizon.net or freenode. Or #bay12games. I don't think I'm going to figure this out without direct access to your computer.. well, fortunately, since it's linux, we can do that.

I just hope you trust me enough for that. :)

Utterly unplayable.

I downloaded it, bothered to go through the inits and such all over again, copy/pasted the raws from my old version into my d16 version, copy/pasted the interface folder over and when I started it up it says none for all of the options and won't let me do anything, so I have to force-quit it.

Y'know, so far I haven't had a single good experience with the 40d "upgrades".

I agree with Urist. Steampunk is like Darth Vader winning Holland's Next Top Model. It would be awesome but not something I'd like in this game.
Unfortunately dying involves the amputation of the entire body from the dwarf.

That's not how you're supposed to do it.

The only thing that's compatible between 40d and any of the 40dNs are the saves; copying over anything else will mess it up horribly. In particular, the interface format has been completely changed, and it can't read the old format.

Heh. Maybe I should point out that you've been happily running the binary blobs I've sent you so far?

..more to the point, I'd really like to solve this.  :'(

Wartender, if you google for "IRC" you'll find this program, which most people use.  Or, if you use Firefox, you can install the Chatzilla extension.  Also, yes, you can trust Baughn with access to your computer.

He's on linux, mirc won't work.

Your best bet is to use xchat, but ubuntu has plenty of irc programs on the add/remove programs menu.

EDIT: Also, mIRC (or mIRC extensions, possibly) have a history of security flaws. It's not really a very good idea to use it; it's also the biggest target.

Personally I'm very happy with irssi, but that probably isn't for everyone. No eyecandy, see.
