...I almost always play humans...Dwarves are to easy and I cant stand playing them as a surface race....I am weird like that.

I cant find a set of human sprites for stonsense either...no human love it seems

The variation (job classes & such) of sprites for other races in Ironhand's pack does seem a bit limited.

I do not find any graphics set for playing humans on the Dwarf Fortress File Depot and I doubt one was ever made. However, perhaps the follow would be a start? 

Spoiler: Human sprites & Stonesense (click to show/hide)

Deon's Arabian humans 16x16 graphics tileset

AO on Deon's various human sprites and using them in Stonesense
(Though, as AO writes, someone would have to write the XML to use humans in Stonesense.)

Also, it seems that recent versions of Phoebus' Graphic Set has a larger variety of human sprites than most graphics sets.

thanks I will tinker with those when I get a chance

I was actually wondering if you could one day make some different tile for different traps. Could look really more awseome and be less confusing at the front gate where spike, stone fall, huge spiked ball, rotating blade and cage traps are all grouped together.

More than the confusion problem, it would just look great!!

You did an outstanding job so far, I feel bad about that but I just can't stand the ASCII, I will always play with your graphic set.

I am pretty sure the trap icons are hardcoded, so not possible for modders to change at all...

I love this graphics set, it is my favorite of all the ones I can find.

However I'm having a problem in-game.  Sometimes in combat actions will overlap or get cut-off so I can't see entirely what's going on.  Is this a bug within the game or a problem with the graphics set?  I don't notice it happening on other sets.

I have a problem, that the line with the selected item on the units and jobs screen (and probably some other screens as well) is "black on black" and thus unreadable. Is there any way to change that?

I have the same exact problem. Plus it seems some names are cut off, perhaps wider characters like ö and ø and whatever they use sometimes. example with Th and Al in this image: http://i.imgur.com/Ieq2X.png

Names cutting off are a truetype problem, turn it off to fix that.

Love this tileset been using it for awhile now
But perhaps someone could help me with something? When you create a new world and look at the world map, im not sure what all the "signs"/symbols mean... Like how do I recognize magma/lava on the world map? or a goblin tower and so on???
I figured out the volcano, but there are so many signs I have no idea what they represent...

[Aklyon]

magma is everywhere, you just need to get deep enough.

I tried installing this on my mac, but it doesn´t change critters and dwarves, they are letters and weird dwarf-like shapes unlike the ones in the dwarves.png file. Anyone have an idea what went wrong? Terrain and items work, it´s creatures that doesn´t work.

Perhaps you didn't update the raw files within your savegame?

It was something like that, only the first region I created had this problem, the next one and the arena worked fine.

Problem solved, thanks!

So, I totally love Ironhand, and all my friends who play df use it too. It even got my girlfriend interested ("OMG THAT LLAMA IS SOOO CUTE!!! Can I build a fort just to collect animals?") hehehe.

I have a question, however, regarding colours. I don't know is this is quite the right place to ask, but I'm looking to change the default colours for underground cavern moss. It's usually on the floor of caverns, but I'm afraid the colours of blue/yellow/grey makes things look too dark for my likings, and I was hoping to change the colour to be a little more green, so my underground garden can be a bit more cheerful... and remind me less of the blood of underworld creatures . Is this possible? Does anyone know how?

Thanks everyone !

These are defined in plant_grasses.txt in your raws.

Each type of grass has a line that reads something like

   [GRASS_COLORS:3:0:1:3:0:0:3:0:0:0:0:1]

Each trio of these numbers corresponds to a color.  These colors (pulled from cave moss) are mostly 3:0:0 or 3:0:1, which are shades of cyan.  Changing the 3's to 2's will make cave moss more of a green color.  Repeat as desired for other underground grasses.

This page on magmawiki should help if you want to learn more about how DF handles colors.

Ah, thanks very much! That's super handy. I shall go forth and mod the colours.

Pink unicorns may be a side effect...
