So, I'm ready for it. Every single able dwarf, namely 70, carries a weapon and armor, with 30 legendary axe/spear/marks dwarfs. Let's slaughter these demons. 90 of them spawn, syndrome bearing, fire expelling, poisonous bite. Shit.
So, plan a: "Die honorably" goes to hell, lets go to plan b: Cave in in their heads to diminish their ranks. Dwarfs withdraw to a safe place, the demons zerg rush the room, destroying various statues in the statue filled room. This is the time.
Up in the meeting room, the only 3 dwarfs that are not ready for fend the demons, the paragons legendary Weaponsmith and Armorsmith, and the piece of junk the Baron are waiting. They hear the sounds, and the pull the lever. The ceiling falls on the almost surprised demons, making the magma and magma mist from the magma sea go up and the demons, to di.... wait, CTD? FUUUUUU
Spoiler (click to show/hide)


So, anyone has any suggestions? Seriously, a CTD on the final battle?
I pulled the lever before the demons came, and no CTD. Now with the demons, this thing crash. When it's not a FPS death they cause, it's a CTD. Great.

CTD? What that mean? I tried googling it, and got--

Center for Talent Development

Comparative Toxicogenomics Database

and

Composite Technology Development.

I assume it's not any of those.

perhaps memory overload? those extra 90 sprites put a huge load on your pc, then again that may not be an issue at all. if you are normally slowed don a bit try it again with less other processes running and see if that helps.

CTD is crash to desktop Aramco

Oh. Of course. But, yeah, ninety extra pathfinding demons, FPS is going to be bad.

But Comparative Toxicogenomics Database actually sounds interesting, Imma go see what it is.

EDIT: Darn it, Comparative Toxicogenomics Database was LAME.

Crash to Desktop, Aramco.

I tried with my baron in the range and less demons, worked. I tried with 70 dwarfs under it, works.
I guess Dwarfnorris101 is kinda right. I didn't ever tried killing all this enemies at the same time, maybe this drops more my fps and cause the issue.


So... what was Comparative Toxicogenomics Database ?


FPS is bad, 12-15, but they can destroy all without a glitch. But when I drop the celling, all goes to hell.

It was just lame 'How different chemicals affect the Human body'. I was immensely disappointed.

What every you do, don't let Toady see the Comparative Toxicogenomics Database. He mentioned in the last Dwarf Talk that he has not done ingested poisons yet.

The issue might be the extra calculations it has to do from the magma getting everywhere and heating random tiles, and misting, on top of the hfs--maybe turn off temperature and try again, especially since the demons aren't bothered by it at all.

If you can RELIABLY reproduce the crash, load the game on the http://dffd.wimbli.com/index.php and create a bug on it.

You kidding? I want mercury poisoning. Let him at it!

Toady typically doesn't do things by half measures.  As evidenced by turning "make hauling work better" into "implement mine carts with physics".
There are many issues with this statement.

Hmmm... would the Elves then get mad if I gave them lead mugs?

Ask the Romans.

I just realized two things. 1. For the Win and F___ the World have the same initials. 2. They have the same meaning in Dwarf Fortress.

i myself prefer the hallway full of spikes attached to a repeater over the massive cavein.

Why couldn't my vampire Hammerer eat someone useless, like a migrant? Instead, she went after my only gemcutter.. but sadly there were no witnesses, so I convicted someone's pet duck as the murderer.  It got off easy, with no beatings or jail time.  >.<
