Version 40d14 is completely identical to 40d gameplay-wise - the only things "new" about it are some interface optimizations. Go check DFMA if you want some videos to watch.

P.S. If you don't get this note, let me know and I'll write you another.
It's amazing how dwarves can make a stack of bones completely waterproof and magmaproof.
It's amazing how they can make an entire floodgate out of the bones of 2 cats.

That's a shame, because they make up about 50% of Dwarf Fortress.

By "interface optimizations", he means decreasing memory usage for interface-related tasks.

The ASCII graphics are part of what make DF awesome. If you lack the imagination to turn a U next to a smiley face surrounded by red commas into an epic swordfight between a human and a dwarf, then this may not be the game for you.

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.

Sounds like you're using a graphics pack. That has little to do with the actual version of Dwarf Fortress you're using. As for videos using said graphics pack (or any graphics pack) you'll just have to watch various ones. I don't think there is anything that specifically sorts them out based on that.
