That's right

That is right

I was thinking cheetahs were smaller, with leopards being the middle ground. Well, the only difference is their size, so it's just a matter of assigning the correct sprite to each one. I also changed the skin tones a bit, as suggested, and added a cougar while I was at it (just removed the spots from the leopard, actually).

The generic colors are enough for me, color variants are too much trouble. if anyone else wants to add them, go ahead.

Also, that blood looks amazing. The corridors of my fortress shall run red. Blood for the blood god!

Only quibble: Head on Cheetah is same size as the others and with the smaller body it just looks weird. Other than that, awesome awesome awesome.

Yeah I thought the same, makes it look somewhat like a child, but I couldn't make the head any smaller without making it unrecognizable. I might try to fix that again someday.

Anyway, I made a few more. Unfortunately the only wildlife around my fortress is elephants, and the hippies haven't brought me any of these yet, so I don't know how they look in-game (it's the first fortress I'm playing in this version). Tomorrow I might do some exploratory embarks and try to see how they look.

Elk, deer (M/F), mountain goat, polar, grizzly and black bear.

Arena mode is highly recommended for testing animals.

Still with problems building under Linux:

Insalled Allegro 4.9.19 and still got that.

I'm still getting a flashing screen when I try to use stonesense and this is with the latest SDL DF version that just came out.

Someone has to make a new memory .xml for Stonesense to work with .07 EDIT: NOW .08
Considering I just woke up to find that .07 .08 even exists, I naturally assume everyone should have done all the compatibility fixes already.
What a bunch of slackers

Right, completely forgot about the arena. I tried them now, but it seems the bears and deer already have sprites. Which is strange, because I checked the creatures folder before making them, and couldn't find any sprites for those animals. What am I missing here, are they hardcoded in the program somehow?

[Khalan]

There's a separate creatures.png file in the main Stonesense folder.

I double checked... I ran DF in admin mode, I ran Stonesense in admin mode, I had my fort loaded up and on the screen, and I still get 'Stonesense has stopped working' immediately upon running the .exe

A blank window pops up titled 'Allegro' and then seconds after the 'Stonesense has stopped working' window pops up.

Does it have anything to do with where the DF and/or Stonesense folders are located on my computer?

Edit - I am using the most current DF (.6) and I have the SDL version, not legaacy

Have you tried changing the render in the init file? The default is OpenGL, but i think it might be worth a shot trying DirectX or software rendering too.

Edit: Here's a Memory.xml that should work with .08 and .07 (untested) There seems to be some issues with the latest memory files, I'm gonna look into this.

Tried that memory xml, still get the flashing screen after hitting f9.

[sjaakwortel]

Same here for me, just downloaded DF 08 and stonesense, genned a world and embarked. First try stonesense just crashed, so i switched to DirectX mode. In DirectX mode it runs but it doesnt connect to DF even with the new xml

[WormSlayer]

I've played DF a few times today and Stonesense mostly works, but sometimes just cannot connect, even quitting and restarting both DF and SS doesnt help, but logging off or rebooting seems to always get it working again. (Win7)

[Ratboy]

Okay, this memory.xml should work for 31_08. I've briefly tested it on my game and it seems okay.

[sjaakwortel]

Works for me.
I have a suggestion to, do you think it is possible to get the DF notifications in stonesense ? that would make it a lot cooler (and convient since is only have 2 screens)

Works for me as well. I've gone ahead and packed it into my LazyNewb pack. So hopefully it wont set peoples computers on fire.

EDIT:
For the ULTRA LAZY, here is Stonesense Pre-installed with .08 support:
