Actually it's in both!

[Durin]

I can't quite figure out why when I am using this setup my windowed mode takes up the whole screen, and sometimes seems to be centered such that the game is not quite fully visible.  Should I change the full screen mode settings even if I want to use windowed?  I noticed they were set a little large for my laptop to deal with, but as long as I go windowed it runs, just... crooked?  Off center...?

I bumped this hoping to get a yes, no, or "holy cow, how did you end up making that happen?"

I hate trying to play DF without graphics, so I am sort of hanging around waiting for the merge unless I can get this puppy working...  Any help appreciated.

[Mike Mayday]

Huh. Get to init.txt and play with the resoultion and tilegrid settings (tilegrid= resolution/16).

[Deon]

To be more precise, open /data/init/init.txt and change

Code: [Select]

[GRAPHICS_WINDOWEDX:1280]
[GRAPHICS_WINDOWEDY:800]to fit your resolution (appropriate X and Y)

Then make sure that your:

Code: [Select]

[GRID:80:50]
Is your "X/16:Y:16" where X and Y is your set resolution for the windowed mode (NOT the screen resolution but the one set above).

I don't know if this is because of the tileset but I crash out of DF with the following in the errorlog:

Unrecognized Creature Texture Token: ROYALGUARD
Unrecognized Creature Texture Token: GUARD

(I think it might be because royal guards come with the king)

That will be in your errorlog but it doesn't cause crashes.  If you want to remove those errors use global search and replace on graphics_mayday.txt

Search for this  :GUARD  or this,  :ROYALGUARD

and replace with :DEFAULT

Erase/move your errorlog, start DF, load your save.

Whatever was causing your crash will still cause it but you won't have those errors in your logfile so you'll know to look at something else for the problem. This is just a workaround to clear those errors for testing, it is most likely not want you want to do if you'd like your advanced military dwarves to look distinctive.

what version of DFG are you using?

[s0m3f00l2121]

I'm a noob to DF and I don't Have sound on my downloaded version from may green website. What am I doing wrong here ?

[Djohaal]

One thing I always wondered is why we have dorf icons for cluster professions and not individualized ones. Is it a design decision or lack of time? 
I think I'll fiddle around with your sprites and see if I can make some interesting variations. 

[Z1000000m]

probably a really stupid question to ask, but how do you make the whole tileset to work in df?
i set it to use the mayday (instead of min) , and walls are damn pretty now
however ,the dwarfs(and any other living being) will still use the letters instead of the icons
this is not an issue for the arena mode, where everything is working good

i had the exact same thing after trying to use maydays tileset with the accelerator in 40d
it the same for 01, 02 and 03 versions of 2010

he strips the music files from the archive to make it smaller.  copy them over from vanilla df if you want the music.

To all people posting questions for help recently:
Please try http://mayday.w.staszic.waw.pl/~mayday/upload/DFG1280a.zip instead and let me know it everything is well explained there

I'd say it's a design choice caused by the limited amount of space available. I'll be doing more specific icons for my 21px tilese (to be released in May).

[UnHerpers]

Everything is explained fine, though It would be better if it didn't use "C:\DFG\" and "C:\DF\" because as you can probably tell those are easy to get mixed up.
And these are in my errorlog:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Plus a whole load of GUARD/ROYALGUARD ones.
Thanks.

[Mike Mayday]

Well, the errors regarding object raws are normal DF bugs. What I find interesting are the royalguard ones, since there isn't a single royalguard token in the graphics index file.

[UristMcGunsmith]

Is there any way to run this with the DF Accelerator?
