That's right

That is right

yeah, go there, do download source, and  click the great big tarball button.

it's recommended to use something like checkinstall to make things easier to remove afterwards.

Sealances, a la new version:

I'm collecting cedar blocks so I can make the inn a uniform color.

The tower looks very ephemeral now. New features are the power plant, located on the brook, and The BearWall.

In the center is the unnamed mist generator building. 2 more floors are planned, one misty and one with equipment. I may build it taller even.

What's up with the obsidian? Yo? I thought it was going to be Hawt Pink?


Edit:  Ultima Online did a lot of it's sprites in grayscale and just applied a palette to them. I don't know how stonesense does it, if it does it that way or an easier way, just mentioning it because I happened to remember it.

Edit2: Yeah I don't know what is going on with that mule.  ... I just got an elf caravan, maybe it was that coming onto the map.

[McBeer]

lol @ flying mule...

[Andir]

What's the smoke looking blocks? (Edit: I read you said it was a mist generator... is that the mist or is it like crystal glass?  I looks unlike mist except for the topmost parts.)

[Beeskee]

The misty ones are clear glass. The green tinted ones are green glass. The buildings use a combination of windows, floors, and walls.

The mist itself doesn't show up.

I don't think that's what CK meant I think she was simply pointing out that it would be simpler for everyone if I had had the foresight to split the thread a little while back instead having it grow to the now lumbering colossus it is. And she's right of course, I'll have to think about that.

Yes, I was not complaining about anyone in particular or any "you should have read this" but rather my message is "these people with bug reports keep making me think artists are contributing, code is getting written, etc etc"

If you want hot pink opsidian, it's rediculously easy to change. just open colors/inorganic_layer.xml, and change the color for obsidian.

That;s exactly how stonesense does it.

mules are officially cursed animals. you're lucky it's a normal color, they often aren't.

There's just... so much bear.

I keep thinking of them as "emergency food".

Because, in an emergency, they'll use your dwarves as food?

[Star Guarded]

so has anyone been working on demon sprites? want to make sure before I have some made.

ps loving the new release. great job everyone.

[Rose]

Unlikeley, as the demons tend to be randomised, which means you either have to have a generic demon sprite, not much better then the questionmark, or a sprite specific to your fort, which has limited resale value.

indeed, that's what I thought the problem would be I'll have some made, though I doubt they'll be very useful for the official release.

[Rose]

they'd still be fine for that little project of yours, though
