If you're on linux, just use "glxinfo | grep texture_buffer_object", no glview needed.

I don't have any time for (testing) DF right now at all, but I thought I could at least report on this. I'm on a laptop with an ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4500 Series card, and "GL_ARB_texture_buffer_object" does appear on the list.

Dear Team d18:

You broke my favourite exploit!

Just recently, using d16, I got into the habit of dump-spamming rock. Yes, I was one of those heinous villains that would put all the rock in the fortress into a 1x1 garbage dump at the bottom of a ramp.

I would normally go to an area full of rock, loo[K] around, pick up the first one, [D]ump it, and as I held the D key, I would move from rock to rock with the arrow keys. It would select all the rocks with a few skipped, here and there, but generally a 90% success chance. Now, I try the same thing, and nada. I played around with the init settings, I matched them to those from my d16 folder, nope, no dice.

So thank you. You're keeping me more honest.

Or just forcing me to go back to actually PRESSING the D-key for each rock.

As to the question about grid size, here's my display options:

[GRAPHICS:YES]
[GRAPHICS_WINDOWEDX:1248]
[GRAPHICS_WINDOWEDY:640]
[GRAPHICS_FONT:Lemunde_16x16.png]
[GRAPHICS_FULLSCREENX:1280]
[GRAPHICS_FULLSCREENY:800]
[GRAPHICS_FULLFONT:Lemunde_16x16.png]
[GRAPHICS_BLACK_SPACE:YES]

[GRID:78:40]

I just added in GRID. I don't know if it's necessary, or if it's covered already by having the GRAPHICS_WINDOWEDX & Y changed, but it makes me feel more secure having it.

From what I understand, the new system doesn't use [GRID] because it just shows the maximum number of tiles based on your resolution, and pads the extra with black space. Are your tiles getting stretched? If so, try using GRID.

So... how do I change the grid size?

Drag the bottom right corner of the window.

Go into interface.txt, find the dump-rock line, change REPEAT_NOT to REPEAT_SLOW.

I figured holding that key long enough for to repeat would've been an accident, see. :P

However, while you're at it, not that you can 'd'esignate dumping of everything in an area as well, not to mention use macros.

My Radeon 9200 PRO on Debian Linux (stable) doesn't have ARB_texture_buffer_object (I suspect this is a driver, not a video card issue).

glxinfo | grep version gives:

server glx version string: 1.2
client glx version string: 1.4
GLX version: 1.2
OpenGL version string: 1.4 (2.1 Mesa 7.0.4)

I'm going to be using the 2D (or ncurses) version anyway, so I imagine that none of this affects me?

You, my friend, are astounding.

I figured it'd make sense to be able to designate to dump massive amounts of stuff, but wasn't sure it had been enabled.

Found it.

"Having faith" that the bridge will not fall, implies that the bridge itself isn't that trustworthy. It's not that different from "I pray that the bridge will hold my weight."

Yes, that. Though, I think mine's a Radeon Mobility X1400 or something like.
Code: [Select]
~$ glxinfo | grep texture_buffer_object

you want ./df not df
Otherwise you're running this utility rather than the dwarfort startscript.

On Linux and OS X, the permissions on the files are a bit screwy after extracting; executable text files and such what.

If you want, I can fix that for you or write a script that cleans it up.

Text mode on OS X is working decently well, but the font is messed up or something is wrong. I see

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

My terminal is set to Unicode - am I missing a font?

Once the movie finishes, the text menu displays correctly. Also, would it be possible to make the ncurses interface dynamically expand based on window size?

Dwarf Fortress over SSH is the best thing, bar none.
