Oh, ok. Thanks.

[Deon]

I downloaded the ASCII version and can't seem to find the "genesis setup" file. Where is it supposed to be?

It's in every version. It's a shortcut. You probably have to redefine the path to it, but the mod manager is in /dfmm/ folder.

[Deon]

OH FU! Guys, sorry, I uploaded wrong Phoebus and ASCII files! Reuploading!

[Deon]

That's what you get when you are too busy partying...

Sorry guys, I reuploaded correct archives for Phoebus and ASCII.

[SalmonGod]

Happy Birthday, Deon.  It's interested imagining you going back and forth between partying and DF modding

[Deon]

Nah everyone sleeps already. It's 1:30 AM .

Good timing. I basically ruined my reclaim fort by going into stocks and unforbidding everything, then having an infinite loop of people trying to get stuff in the caverns but they can't because of blacked-out paths. I tried everything - exploring the whole caverns, d-b-f'ing every z-level - but it just kept happening. Here's an excuse to fuhgeddaboutit and start a new world

Happy Birthday, Deon!

One question: Black Steel: It's essentially Ferrocarbon Titanuim, innit?

Technically it's damascus steel (or wootz, or patterned, call it as you want) which is produced by smelting iron with impurities.

heh, well, considering it's made with ilmenite, I can think of worse things to be "contaminating" your steel than Ti.

Minor graphics bugs:
in the phoebus version graphics_example.txt, you will find these two lines:

Code: [Select]

[OUTPOSTLIAISON:DWARVES:8:4:AS_IS:DEFAULT]

[DUNGEON_NASTER:DWARVES:10:5:AS_IS:DEFAULT]
This causes the DM to revert to his old graphic (ie, hunter, or whatever he was before you appointed him), and the Liason to show up as a random prof. each year. Changing them to:

Code: [Select]

[OUTPOST_LIAISON:DWARVES:8:4:AS_IS:DEFAULT]

[DUNGEON_MASTER:DWARVES:10:5:AS_IS:DEFAULT]Fixes it. Not sure if this is a genesis issue, or a phoebus one, but, I thought I'd let you know.

[Deon]

Thanks, I will fix it. Probably mine.

So i just finished 2 artifacts but more importantly just masterfully engraved my fortresses 2 largest areas, dwarfbucks 13m and climbing. SO! elf caravan, meh oh well might as well trade, OH LOOK NAGA SIEGE!(4 groups 2 riding building destroyer mounts) i barely manage to pull the drawbridge before a few of them get across, i lose 1 recruit HE WAS WEAK. OH LOOK! CENTAUR SIEGE!(4 groups their friendly with the nagas)--oh hey look who they uncovered! DARK ELF AMBUSH( 3 groups, their not friendly with either sieger) but wait THERES MORE! ILLITHID AMBUSH!(2 groups their not friendly with either sieger)

My bowdwarfs are throwing bolts at everything that moves as everything that moves trys to kill each other around my central tower--theirs blood EVERYWHERE. I lost a bowdwarf because HOLY SHIT ILLITHIDS FLY! I have 2 melee squads on the tower to protect the ranged squad as they enjoy the target rich environment.

Did i mention theres a forgotten beast in the first cavern just waiting to burst into my dining hall? oh yeah the centaurs brought like 12 goddamn trolls and for some reason theres over 20 fucking hostile cave crocs running rampant. I'm turning the huge amount of copper from the shitty armor into arrows/bolts as rock just doesnt seem to cut it.

[Deon]

Good to see you have action!

I will release an update in a day or two (at least I plan now). I will fix stones and apply a suggestion (sorry can't remember who suggested it, I think it was Rephikul) to pre-name graphics for some monsters, so forgotten beasts and night creatures would have graphics.

this is awesome:

Sir! We're almost out of ammo, and th' stone-tipped arrows can't pierce th' blasted trolls' skin!

Melt the Armor from the trap-pits!

ya it was me but they go all the way to _1000 cause that's the highest the player can set. Too much pre-emptive bloat to my taste, imo.

If you capture those cave crocs, and keep them in cages, they just might breed for you. You can't tame them, but you sure can tame their offspring.
