After updating the game, run DF_savegame_updater.bat to update your savegames, run DF_phoebus_init_updater.bat to update your inits, then play the game.
Note: .NET Framework v4 is required to run the Dwarf Fortress Config utility, so you should try installing that if you can't get the util to run.

The ";" tile has been stolen from Ironhand. (jez9999 made me do it!)
The gem wall symbols association has been redistributed. Tier 1 for gems worth 2-3, T2 for 10-15, T3 for 20-30, T4 for 40-60.

--------------------------------------

DF 0.34.05+ raws are not compatible with DF 0.34.04 or earlier worlds
If you want to use your old savegames with DF 0.34.05+, download body_rcp_eyelids.txt, update your savegame's raws then copy the file in your savegame's object folder located at "/data/save/regionX/raw/objects/".
If you can't or don't want to copy that file, not updating the raws will allow you to use the game, but without many of the improvements from the latest version.

Spoiler: Credits and Thanks (click to show/hide)

I could not have created this graphic pack without the help of these artists:

Units:
Sphr is to thank for the vast majority of the units. Dwarves, Humans, Elves, Goblins, Kobolds, large mountain & riverlake creatures, monsters, subterranean creatures and several wildlife creatures.
NW_Kohaku has created most of the tiles for the new creatures in 0.34.01.
Jiri Petru improved and expanded Sphr's elf tileset.
Kafine created tiles for several new birds and sea creaturesin 0.34.01.
Bane has created tiles for the majority of normal animals in the game. Amongst the 49 creatures we can find dogs, crocodiles, gorillas and tigers.
Magnut has created the tiles for the new v0.31 underground creatures. Examples: cave blobs, cave dragon, green devourer and magma crabs.
Deon has expanded Sphr's creature tilesets with new tiles for most of the important races.

Fonts:
I'm using fonts from Phoebus, Bisasam, Phssthpok, Guybrush and Martin.

Tileset:
Ironhand is the creator of most of the textures used in the tileset. Mineral textures, ground textures, wall textures. I've also taken a few tiles from his tileset.
RantingRodent is the source of the mineral tiles used in this set, both symbolic and graphic mineral tiles. He's also the source of the accent removal mod that I use to free more tiles to use as mineral tiles, plants and vermins.
Hermano's tileset was the inspiration that made me start my own tileset, it's also the base of my tileset. The tiles that I'm still using from is set are many: Most trees, most vermins, most furniture & containers, most jewelry & crafts, prepared food, adventurer tile, traps, mechanisms, cloth, blade trap, anvil, thread, crossbow, hill icon, weapon rack & a few more.
Hermano is also to thanks for his incredibly useful tileset utilities.
krenshala for providing a custom tileset with really nice tiles.
From DrD_AVEL's Gold Plated tileset I've taken: most plants, the walls, doors and hatches, river & road tiles, armor rack, ropes & logs, palm trees, the body part tile & the spider.
From Darkond's Dig Deeper tileset I've taken: boulders, clothing icon, dimple cup icon, sweet pod icon, withered plant icon, tree top icon & lever icons.
From Isenhertz's tileset I've taken the shrub icon.
All all the other tiles I've sto borrowed and never gave full credits for.

Updater Scripts:
Linux version by smariot.

And my Special Thanks goes to:
Skie, he has been very helpful in finding problems with the tileset and helping me fix them.
Greenbane, he has been giving me a good quality of feedback and suggestions.
rephikul for all the support he's provided.
And Deon for reminding me to create this section. Yeah, and for all his help too.

Spoiler: F.A.Q.s (click to show/hide)

Q: The game crashes!!!1
A: Try to edit the /data/init/init.txt file and change the [PRINT_MODE:STANDARD] line to [PRINT_MODE:2D]
Warning, the 2D print_mode is much slower.

Q: The walls are looking like floors, most of my dwarves look the same, the creatures have no graphics, what's going on?
A: DF v0.31.xx saves a copy of the graphics and object definitions with each game.
Those infos are copied from the main game at World Generation.
If you generated a world before installing this mod (or before this version), you will need to manually copy those new graphics over your savegame's old copies.
Copy the raws from /DwarfFortressDirectory/raw/ to /DwarfFortressDirectory/data/save/SAVEDGAMENAME/raw/

Q: Everything looks fine but the dwarves, all dwarves beside the miners and medics are ugly, what should I do?
DF v0.31.xx comes with a example graphical mod installed by default.
The miner you see is from that example graphical mod.
That mod is conflicting with the new dwarf graphics.
Delete the files /DwarfFortressDirectory/raw/graphics/graphics_example.txt and /DwarfFortressDirectory/data/save/SAVEDGAMENAME/raw/graphics/graphics_example.txt
That'll enable the improved dwarf graphics, in your current and future games.

Q: I'd like to change the resolution, or play fullscreen, how can I do that?
Press F11 to toggle between windowed and fullscreen.
The resolution should automatically adjust to your desktop resolution.

I mean these:


This ground is from gold-plated too, the ground from Ironhand's set is too dark, so open space is easier to spot than the ground .

Your ground seems to be the best ever, but it would take some time to make other tiles to blend with it.

Bug report, perhaps.  But this version crashes every time I try to 'Find' a starting location, no matter which options I choose, even without modifying any of the INIT files.

Thanks for the update!

After playing with it for a while...I noticed that dwarfs are just color-swapped same model, a lot of animals are shown as a letter, etc.

I am guessing the .png version of the dwarfs graphics (and animals/plants. etc) are not complete yet, but i will ask here anyway, just to be sure.

make sure you are following this portion of the instructions:

If you want to generate a new with world after installing the v2.0 graphic pack, first delete the "inorganic_stone_layer - Copy.txt" file in /raw/objects/

I had the same problem until I remembered to delete this file, you might need to create a new world after.

Thanks for the quick response, Hexrei.  I did finally get it to start a new game, chosing a more-so random location on a new gen map. Sadly, there were several issues I had with that one.

1. Most of the 'empty space' area of the map showed up the same faded blue color as the river does, and doesn't disapear even when you Z-level up and down.

2. Weird tile spots where several different things overlap, flickering back and furth between them. Even pausing and using the K-look key couldn't stop them from doing it. (Maybe a clitch with the graphics, idk.)

3. Some of the tiles near the bottom of the screen here stretched oddly, even after trying to resize the screen manually.

I couldn't get any screenshots though, sense DF crashed within minutes of me loading up the map.  I'll try it with your suggestion, Hexrei, and see if that helps.


UPDATE:
Removing the "inorganic_stone_layer - Copy.txt" file did indeed fix the problem with the 'Find Site' search. It no longer crashes. Its just taking a really really really long time to move from point to point. >.<''

I also spotted another bug while messing with it: The sediment/ground layers are showing up in the site selection.  The brown words all say 'Rock' no matter where I move it.

UPDATE:
Nevermind.  On a re-load of the new world gen the 'Rock' bug disapeared.  Odd.

Any chance you could do a version with the original rock/mineral/gem wall tiles? I love your pack but i preferred the way the rock looked back in version 1.1 or whichever one it was before you changed it to the value graded symbols.

Your ground seems to be the best ever, but it would take some time to make other tiles to blend with it.

I'm using layers in GIMP to draw my tilesets. That ground texture is one of the bottom layers. The texture covers the whole tileset, but I toggle which tile it's displayed on with a layer mask.
That ground texture is an alternate of 100% white (#FFFFFF) with 75% light grey (#BFBFBF); I draw a square of 16% very dark grey (#2A2A2A) on the layer mask where I want the texture to show up, and black everywhere else. (Layer masks are opacity filters.)

Thanks for the update!

The PNG versions of the unit graphics are ready and included in the graphic pack, but sadly DF v0.31.04 currently does not support unit graphics, which is why the game crashes when we turn [GRAPHICS:ON].

Version 1.1 layer symbols? Yes, I can do that.

Oh I actually realized the version I was talking about was before 1.0 i.e. before you put in the mineral chart system. Would it still be possible to make a version with that?

I've never released a version without mineral charts, but I've released a version without layer symbols.
