A question, two actually:

1. If I install Mike Mayday's graphics pack AND the Orc mod, how will the Orcs appear? Will they have the goblin's tiles, or the default ASCII? Or will they just appear as black squares as everything I once tried to mod in did?

2. Will the Mayday pack work with the new version of DF? Or is that just speculation at this point?

Thanks!

1: They will appear as ASCII unless you mod in graphics for them.
2: Speculation really.

I just used Orc mod and replaced them with trolls as those have mayday graphics.  They don't have weapons weapons graphics so you could also just search in the orc mod thread for some orcy tiles.

If I recall the DF talk about that, I think that some creatures will have their art entry poked at as well, and might need tweaking. But graphic sets are probably the most likely to work with the new version with only minor editing, compared to mods (like orc mod)

I know if you use the prepackaged Mayday d11 package the Orcs look just like wall tiles, where the wrestlers are white. This makes them hard to find if you have a lot of constructions around.

Aha, this is because, thanks to DF not having dedicated graphics yet, the 'end' tile for walls are also the O tile for the character set.

Go to the orc mod thread. There is a graphics pack for them there that works just fine with mayday.
