Alright, well, sexymustard and I have decided that enough of you want at least an option for old overseer look so we're going to be porting the OSG stuff to Ogreseer as a first step. The geometry will be pretty immediate but the material system is going to be a major overhaul -- but it will be totally worth it, Ogre's material system is fantastic. Also, the material stuff will remain identical between the two different ways of generating geometry. So anyways, for now, I'm just going to copy over the old code and change all graphics-related code to Ogre stuff, unless Ogre's design dictates a restructuring. It'll almost entirely be simplifications though, so ideally, it will be quick. Once that's done, I'll probably start working on the new geometry generator.

Is there a way to make this lag less? I have loaded a 5x5 embark, closed all other programs (including DF after I loaded it) just in case and it is too slow to do anything, it worked OK on a 3x3 embark but this is just meh.

I really like the flying around thing though, haven't seen that in any other view program.

For now the best you can do is decrease the image size and maybe increase the zstart in your ini file.

Forgive the noob question but how do you take a screenshot with this?

[Untelligent]

The printscreen button on your keyboard. Works almost anywhere, it copies what's currently on your screen and then you can paste it into Paint or Photoshop or GIMP or whatever and save the image. Alt-printscreen just copies the current window.

... I just wasted twenty years of my life cutting that one window out of the screenshot with paint. Guess you learn something new every day.

What operating system are you on?

[gremlin81]

windows xp

[thewonderidiot]

Um, I'm not sure what's going wrong. Does it just say that DF isn't running?

[gremlin81]

yes

[thewonderidiot]

As long as your game is loaded and running, I don't see why it wouldn't in XP. Try making sure you're running it as an administrator. Other than that, maybe the dfhack guys would know something to try.

(If you're running df 31.18) You need to download the 31.18.xml on the first page and put into the overseer folder.  right-click and save into the folder.  It will be .txt file, so rename it to .xml and let it replace the older .xml which is for older version of df.

I tryed run it witch wersion 31.12, same happen...

A week later, we ask our glorious coder, "Any progress screenshots to show us?"

and thus...
