Error With MayDays Green Tileset (Newest version)
« on: April 04, 2010, 01:39:58 pm »

When I try to download the mod, I get Incorrect Command Line.
Where do I put MayDays Green Tileset?

And also, when I create a world, it redirects me back to the main menu, but it does not say Continue Game, so I cant choose the world I created and embark.

Where are you trying to download the mod from?
Is the latter issue with a vanilla DF or with a modded one?

Are you on Vista?  There are apparently issues in Vista if you have your Dwarf Fortress folder in the in the Program Files directory.

The tileset is a standalone pack of Dwarf Fortress, dont try to install it over vanilla DF, put it in it's own folder. And once you have created a world you need to select New Game rather than Continue Game, continue is for when you already have a save of an actual fort/adventurer.

First, it's 'mayday green's tileset'. :P

Second, don't put it into the dwarf fortress folder, it's a standalone, fully working, dwarf fortress with the tileset.

Third, which versions are you downloading? are you trying to unpack two different versions (40d&31) on top of each other?

And please don't bump like that, bumping is fine, but 1; don't do it too early (less than one day) and 2; too late (a month or so old, unless you have a good reason, like a question or adding to whatever the thread is about), even then, you need to control yourself.

And welcome to the forum! magma on the left, undead on the right, dwarves in the rear, and burning elves in front! ;)

Tarran has the "Tarran Bug", a bug which causes the affected character to repeatedly hit teammates while dual-wielding instead of whatever the hell he is shooting at.

Honestly? I don't even know anymore mayday.green is my e-mail, may.green is the name of the website but I'm Mike Mayday so the appropriate form would be mike mayday's (or simply mayday's) tileset.

Uhhh, anyway:
And Im using Windows 7 Vista.
No. No, you're not.

So, you are using two systems at the same time? :P

All of the drawbacks with none of the perks. Windows 7 Vista, its like the New Coke!

I have a slight hiccup with mine; my expedition leader seems to be a skeleton. A purple one. Whilst awesome, its slightly strange.

Also, according to the status menu, any military I have will be stone masons.

And welcome to the forum! magma on the left, undead on the right, dwarves in the rear, and burning elves in front! ;)

And here I am, stuck in the middle with you.

Don't worry, they look like masons in the status screen but they won't when they're trained.

Windows 7 Vista... That would probably be so unstable it crashes your PC before it even boots.
You could run a PC on elf blood and it would probably do a better job...

Windows 7 and Vista are two separate operating systems, they have nothing to do with your hardware.
You can have both installed on the same computer, but you can only use one at a time.

I've heard there are some problems with Vista and DF2010. Maybe that's the cause of your problems. Check the bug forum?

I don't seem to have any problem on mine...

Well, none that DF2010 doesn't already have.
