I'm trying to find out where a alive historical figure is on the map. I know the region. Any ideas?

Gotta love this community. Great work!

Have you tried the advanced search option? on the summary page, i think.

Use the ASCII/Tile map exported from step 3. You will need to resize it to the same dimensions as one of the detailed maps (1 tile should be resized to 16x16)

I may be daft and missed something, but how does one resize the ASCII/Tile map?

Are you talking about the image that you create?  You resize it like any other .bmp.

If you are talking about how to make a tileset of a different size, you can just have 18x18 pixel tilesets.

Does this work on 34_0X?

This program is version neutral. It will work with all versions of the game that support an xml export.

Haven't had the free time to work on this, but hopefully in a few weeks that will change. There is still data I haven't implemented in the viewer yet, so I need to get that done. After that I'm thinking about redoing the legend pages so that they aren't generated with HTML. It will probably be a big task, but should fix a lot of issues with the current pages and provide some new features.

I, for one, will be looking forward to this greatly.  Any chance one of those pieces of "data" will be the nature of Deity Interactions that have been thrust upon people?  I mean I can tell when a Deity links [MINOR_VAMPIRE_CURSE_1] to a Dwarf what that means, but it'd be nice to use the flavor text that's already in the raws.

I noticed that the writing of books are historical events in this. Is there a way to just filter these events so I can see where all the books of the world are?

Books are artifacts so you can filter for the "Historical Figure Stored Artifact" to see the events that tell you where the books were placed. I still need to add artifacts to sites within the Viewer so you could get a list of artifacts at a specific site. Also need to add artifacts to the advanced search.

We don't get any sort of data that gives more details about the interactions. There was just a few things about historical figures that needed to be used, which includes:
     -Entity Links, like memberships and positions, though we aren't given any details about the positions held, only years right now
     -Entity Reputation. This relates to entities that suspect historical figures of being vampires and being immortal.
     -Site Links.
     -Skills.
     -Artifacts being held.
There was also some data about current identities, but it appears to be bad data.

Some things could be useful, in my opinion :

- Family trees
- Maps when selecting historical figures. Some are always wandering, and it could be possible/interesting to see where they are going, and what are they doing in each place.
- Integrating hamlet/towns/fortress maps

[Intrinsic]

Family Tree's, now that would be cool

Anyone tried this tool with 34.09?

[Intrinsic]

It's version independent, so should be no issue. It works off the XML dumps, not when the game is running ala DT.
