The application can't locate the Memory.xml file. Strange characters should be fixed in dfhack master (it was doing some nasty things).

I'll not ashamed to admit that turned me on just a little bit once I figured out what it was.

Tolkien had a great secret: The dwarves of Moria didn't dig too deep. A prominent dwarf with lots of friends started tantruming and, well, you figure out what happened next.

So.. is this still being worked on, I hope? I very dearly want to use stonesense with my current fortresses, I love this utility, and have missed it dearly.

"   So the gods discussed it and created elves. The Elves were beautiful, Mistral Thrax admitted, in and elvish way, but it was his belief that the gods grew disappointed after a time because the elves -- being elves -- were essentially decorative but not particularly functional. They were content simply to live long lives and to exist. They did not nothing of any real value, in the opinion of Mistral Thrax."

As has been mentioned several times (including the last few posts), yes. Jonas has just mentioned that a new 0.31-prepped version will be out fairly soon as well.

Is it me or is this mod too bright? There's something mysterious and absorbing about DF's black background, a kind of reminder you're in the darkest depths of the earth, that is completely lost in Stonesense. What's worse is that dwarves themselves are chibi when they're a rather Nordic concept to begin with. Seeing the little guys drawn like that doesn't remind me of stygian underworlds, nor of Boatmurdered's tragedy, but of Harvest Moon and jRPG infantilism.

The immersion is gone. A change in the art to a more serious direction would impact this mod tremendously.

I would be interested in another art style, but right now we have to take what we get.  I haven't dug deep, but are the tiles in this customizable?

Stonesense allows you to swap out tilesets.  Also, we've had this discussion about grimdark vs. cheerful several times in this thread already.

Maybe a brightness/Gamma-correction option would be a temporary solution
but if you have sunshine-desert overground, it would look stupid again xD

i bet when 0.31 version is already out and all the tiles and details needed in the current tileset are drawn there's not much os an obstacle for someone to start drawing another tileset in any style they prefer.

p.s. i'm not switching to 0.31 'til the new stonesence is out, having all the current bugs and mysteryes and NO bright warm stonesence images at the same time is too much. keep up the great work, guys!
