That's right

I wish there was a human replacement pack I could download for this. :/

I usually play this with a human-fortress mod which changes a few things, including the models. It's kind of an eye-sore to see the same 3 human models waltzing around.

Two pictures of Deon's humans are in the middle of thread:

Anyway, there is no xml file for them. Someone will have to create it. Or maybe Deon have one, I don't know.

And here is improved current version, with skin, hair and profession coloring, but without special images for the most of professions.

I love you. And, how do I install these? I've been using the Lazy Newb Pack, so, it really has made me a lazy noob.

Alright, ladies and gentlemen, may I present my compilation content pack.  Instructions are included on the DFFD page:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

This is just a handy pack of resources meant for Stonesense 2.3 for use alongside DF version 0.31.25.  The main purpose is to switch on all the hidden cool stuff in Stonesense, without having to spend hours figuring out what's going on. 

Just install Stonesense, then extract this file into the install directory.  Copy over the existing files.  If something breaks, reinstall a fresh version of Stonesense. 

Included in this pack are the following:

• Graphics for grasses are turned on. 
• Graphics for multi-tile trees are turned on.
• Animated water is turned on.
• My dwarf graphics pack is included. 
  
• Grim Dark stone tiles by TheraHedwig.
  

If something's not working send me a PM.  Also, I'm still waiting to confirm redistribution of TheraHedwig's GrimDark stuff in a compilation like this is OK, but I've got no response in a week and people seem to want this thing.

What are all those darkened areas in the first image, some sort of lighting system?

I already gave caldfir green light, but I'll clarify myself here too.

Basically, all the graphics I make for stonesense are a gift to the df community. This means you can modify them and redistribute them if you want. However, I made this for the DF community, and would therefore like to ask people to only use the graphics I make for DF-related purposes. I do not want my stuff to show up in some isometric fantasy game that has little connection to dwarf fortress, nor would I want it to show up on some indie game development resources site.

This is mostly because I've not made the graphics for that purpose. It also devalues the amount of work I put into it as the value of the graphics were I to be paid for them is quite high.

Otherwise, spread the love

It... It's beautiful! How did I not know about any of these? D:

Alright - it seems like somehow I left out index.txt (I feel pretty dumb right now  ) from the uploaded file.  I've fixed it and re-uploaded just now.  Thanks to Weaselcake for contacting me promptly. 

Anyway, everything seems to be working now.

you may as well also include stonesense.exe, as that's needed for the multi-tile trees.

Holy hell, that's really sexy. Some of the colours are a bit strange but still.

Thanks for the fine work, team.

if anybody's wondering, the reason this hasn't been officially released is because the grass tends to hide everything, and the trees look rather weird.

also bugs.

also I have a life.

[Weaselcake]

Any word on a Stonesense edit for the Genesis Mod? All the purple question marks and invisible creatures are getting a bit annoying.

[Rose]

Make one.

it isn't hard, just needs lots of drawing.

I had a quick scoot around the last half a dozen opages or so and didn;t find anything.

I can't get this great looking tool to work. With the default memmory.xml it just sits there, and the log says it couldn't find the DF process.

With the modfied memmory.xml it crashes as soon as i try to load it up with the following error:

I'm running Vista, (yeha i know ), and have put exception in all protection prgrams as well as used the run as administrator option on an admin account, still no joy.

Ah, yeah, I remember that now that you say it.  I was trying not to include too much stuff and making people not download the official release first... although I suppose that's technically still true.  Re-uploading again. 

if anybody's wondering, the reason this hasn't been officially released is because the grass tends to hide everything, and the trees look rather weird.

Yeah, I would agree that while it makes pretty scenery screenshots, with the updated grass and trees it DOES become challenging if you want to look around your fort for your dwarves or something.  There ends up being a lot on the screen, and it can feel a bit like wheres waldo.  I typically switch the grass off if I'm not planning on taking any screenshots, because it makes everything easier to see.  Especially terrain height changes.

I found that if you copy and paste the files you provided into an existing, unzipped Slate 2.3 folder and all of the features you would expect show up. Just let the OS overwrite the files and it seems to work quite nicely.
