What.

Have YOU ever tried to get a DLL past a wall of fire? It stings, I can tell you. Stings like there's no tomorrow.

(also, what.)

I imagine he means that his firewall can do per-executable rules for connections, and he'd blocked a dll from making a connection it needed. Possibly even a loopback connection (something you should NEVER block).

As to how that has anything to do with his shift key not working in dwarf-fort, I have no clue.

Comodo IIRC also tries to protect against DLL injection attacks to prevent untrusted programs from hijacking trusted ones.  Maybe it picked up something DF was doing as a false positive.

Alright, I seem to be having trouble starting Dwarf Fortress, which was working just fine a month ago.

I now get this message when trying to start it up: "This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem."

I get this with both a vanilla, freshly downloaded version of 0.31.12, and with the one I downloaded when 0.31.12 came out.

EDIT: Oh yeah, running Windows XP 64 bit.

EDIT2: Well, I think I figured it out. I think something fscked up my installation of windows, because other programs are giving me this now, too.

I tried playing 0.31.08 (I think it was), but the game kept crashing or locking up on me. But I've been playing 0.31.12 the last few days and haven't had a problem at all. It's great!

Well, it did crash during a save once, but as far as I can tell, the save was completed by then. At least, I didn't notice any problems after getting back into the game.

Thanks!

I still have version 31.03. My question is, does the updated version overwrite the sprites-version I have? Or can I basically just extract this into that same file and still have my sprites?

You need to copy your sprite files, then when you download the new version, you can copy them into the new version's folder and stick the sprites into 31.12. I think. Back up your sprite folder before you do anything with it, anyway.

Doubtful, just check the mods section for an updated version of the graphics your using.

I am having troubles installing the Phoebus graphics tileset into 0.31.12  Normally everything works fine but DF keeps "unexpectedly quitting" whenever i get passed the main menu. Im using a MacBook Pro with the most recent update. Any one else with a mac having difficulties using graphics?

[jocan2003]

What's the difference between SDL and Legacy. o.o

[Rose]

legacy should only be used when you absoluteley ositiveley can't get SDL to work.

[Psieye]

New bugfixes!

Ahhh, it will be good to make obsidian (or other sharp rock) swords again. Proper bedroom assignments is very welcome too.

[VWSpeedRacer]

legacy should only be used when you absolutely positively can not get SDL to work.

Accept no substitutes.
