Sure I can. Starting Excel is slow? It takes about 3 seconds to open that document...

[Hippoman]

I'll try downloading the new version. You probably changed something for them.

[Deon]

No, I didn't change any dwarven graphics since 1.5.

[Hippoman]

Nope. Doesn't work.

All I did was unpack the newest version, graphical.
Then delete the crap to make it faster.

Nothing more.
Now i'll replace the inits with my older ones that make everything run super fast.

[Deon]

"Delete the crap to make it faster"? What did you delete and what reasoning did you have? You won't succeed with such way of acting .

[Hippoman]

I deleted everything that Ironhand deleted. Guess what, I went from 4 fps to above the cap.
Its useless junk.

Here's a screencap of everything I'm missing.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Also in Pickfaith, which is a normal .06 with ironhand gfx, On the z menu I'm missing the admin, but in game, I can see them fine.

[Deon]

You probably miss some files thus you have these blackspaces. If you use the whole version it has no problems.

You have another problem: your peasants look like children and children look like slaves, woodworkers look like farmers, jewelers look like woodworkers, rangers look like crafters, fisherdwarves look like jewelers and engineers look like nobles.

[Hippoman]

Well then.
I'll try a vanilla one.

[Hippoman]

We'll it works. But its so god damn laggy.
So I'm try some stuff.

[Deon]

Which graphical modes did you try?

[Hippoman]

Which graphical modes did you try?

What?
I just downloaded the gfx version, unzipped and played. Worked fine.
It could be my save. Although my save was brought up to date.

[JusticeRings]

if you are having lag issues on Vanilla DF at embark you probably want to just stick with the ASCII graphics. They are by far the least system intensive.

[Hippoman]

I'm not having problems with normal vanilla .06.
I'm having problems with genesis.

[Deon]

No, it's probably different graphical options in init.txt. Go there and try different options and see which one suites your videocard better.

It's probably different settings in the init.txt. There're various 2d and 3d output settings which you can adjust and they will increase or decrease speed which depends on your videocard type.

I wouldn't know what to change even if I knew what type of video card I have.

By the way, it is my save. Is there anyway to fix it? I tried copying the gfx folder over to the saves raws but that didn't work.
