That's right

That is right

Yeah, creatures work with .19, but not .18. Finding the creature offsets is a lot of work, and the guy who does them didn't want to waste his time with an older version.

you can easily load your old fort in .19, and it'll work fine.

A waste of time, you say? IMO, that is backwards thinking.
I posted my reasoning here.

[Rose]

You can copy your save to .19, load it, and view it. you won't get the new grasses, but you'll be able to view the fort just fine otherwise.

[Thundercraft]

I understood that part.

I'm just saying that some of us are so off-put by the bugs and other aspects of .19 that we refuse to migrate our games to .19, deciding to wait until .20 or later (which should be coming very soon). Besides, migrating a .18 save over to .19 will not allow us to enjoy the new creatures and features. So why bother?

[Girlinhat]

No one said this wasn't buggy.  Stonesense isn't working quite up to speed, but enjoy what you've got, yeah?

Also, download .19, copy your save, run it, view it, close it, go back to .18.  It's not ideal, but, you use what you've got and you stop complaining, like a real dwarf should.

We're always glad to give a full refund.

The nerve of some people...

In a hurry to change the subject I have an odd little possible bug to report.  Although it could simply be my settings I suppose.

In version .19 Stonesense appears very dark, except in locations that contain stockpiles (which are normal brightness)  the day/night cycle is off, show stockpiles and show zones are both off.  Any thoughts?

Spoiler: example image (click to show/hide)

The image has debug mode on showing an aboveground outside area.  The two lit areas are a refuse stockpile(left) and plant/seeds stockpile(right).

[Rose]

which version is this?

there was, at one point, a version up that did that, but the latest one shouldn't.

[Greiger]

That could explain that.  This was the version from a little while ago that was a link to the .exe by itself.  I'm afraid I can't find a version number. (956 Kb size .exe if that helps.)  But your explanation sounds about right.

Pardon the ignorance but is the link in the first post still to the newest version?  And if not where do I locate it? I have been having difficulty keeping up lately.

[Rose]

You can get individual files from here:

http://code.google.com/p/stonesense/source/browse/#svn%2Ftrunk

just keep in mind that getting the exe from there will likely result in needing to get the dfhack.dll and memory.xml, and possible also the allegro dlls.

just a disclaimer, though, the files there are in a state of flux, and change often as I try new features. at any given time, things may behave oddly, or crash outright.

[Greiger]

Thanks.  Keep up the good work Japa.

Hi,

Given that this thread is now 320 pages long, would it be feasible to separate it? There used to be a thread just for screenshots, but it seems to have died. Before I necro it, does this sound like a good idea? http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=48172.0

I imagine it might make things easier to find with embedded links. No?

Alright, I did all the ores! And the bugs are out of the granite/diorite/gabbro

But I haven't done the ramps for these yet...
Stonesense Grim Dark 0.2

I think that perhaps the thread should be renewed somehow, mostly because I imagine it's very hard for people to find information in this thread.

Also, I totally didn't know about that screenshot thread >_> I think it's a good idea to necro that one...

Nice Job.

Agreed, though I don't feel I would act unilaterally on this. Perhaps an organizational threading is in order. Regardless, I'm sure all will agree the necroing of the image thread can only help.

Is OP still around?
