Hmm, interesting, I wonder if it is required that this lives on the same core as DF, therefor causing FPS drop, or if it can survive on it's own, so same FPS.

It's a visualizer (for 40d I think) whose creator used as a springboard for reverse-engineering DF to make a DF clone (and being a dick about it).

Yup, there's still some bad blood there. Which is why we don't mention that program anymore.

Similar reasons exist for why we this forum isn't super happy about Goblin Camp either. Though there was a rather peaceful conversation not to long ago.

Completely different case. I don't remember Goblin Camp's devs sourcing DF's code.

Anyone who complains about Goblin Camp, trying to paint it as detrimental to Toady in some way, is doing it out of some sort of hateful territorial weirdness.  The GC guy, Aryoc, has been nothing but a stand up guy, and his project has basically arisen out of saying "Hey, DF is cool, I could make a game like that."

Anyone else noticed that last commit to Khazad was almost a year ago?
Looks like a dead project to me.

I tried Goblin Camp. It took a while for me to figure out the controls because they were mouse based. It's not too similar to Dwarf Fortress either, more like inspired by it. Over time it will grow farther away from DF.

Also, that khazad thread is appalling. I hadn't known somebody tried to reverse engineer DF source code, which is just terrible. I need to get a job to donate more...

Wait, people are still working on it?

Khazad is a word that brings much sorrow for the dwarfkind.
