#1: Put the Alarm Siren in the Military Garrison, it fits and is one buildings less.

#1: Keep the Alarm Siren seperate, I want to have it near my other levers.

#2: I have traded with Gnomes, build Artificer and Weather Control Station.

#2: I have NOT traded with Gnomes, did not have the chance to build their buildings.

Or make a kitten waterfall and make everyone used to death and violence.

Teach me Urist McMeph, teach this dabbling dwarf the secrets of kitten waterfalls!

[Meph]

Make 15z level drop above your dining hall, dump kitten with the "pit/pond" into dining hall. Watch kitten die and splatter all your dwarves with blood and bodyparts. Dwarves get bad thoughts, but also get the "has seen death" and "doesnt care for anything anymore"

After that they are pretty much immune to tantrums.

Are settings actually placed anywhere for this custom software? I'm getting resets to default constantly. "Save Settings" doesn't do much.

I love you for adding ASCII Tilesets :]

Another thing i assume is a bug:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Just found that in my embark screen. "wooden barbed wire" just doesn't seem right to me.

Settings are saved within the raws, it reads out the raw files. If you change one thing, then close it and open it again later, the change is still there. It saves and loads automatically, so to speak. But once you gen a world the settings wont matter, since you cant change the already generated world.

About the trapcomps: Nothing I can cange about that, but you cant make them in fortress mode. All trap comps can be made of wood, even if give them the METAL tag only. Its weird.

bauxite:

jet:

meteor:

red tourmaline:


Just making sure that these are either icon bugs or intended. Bauxite is smoothed floor, jet is an "a`", meteor is the O with little slashed rock thing droppings, and tourmaline is the sideways L.

[CheatingChicken]

Most of the rock icons are wrong, because, as far as I can tell, you have only replaced the plant_standard.txt
Phoebus changed the look of most of the rocks, ores and gems too, as well as some vermin creatures, so those would require fixing as well...

[Meph]

I did replace the inorganic and tool files as well, but I based it upon the version tehzipfile made for MasterworkDF 1.0. I have moved a lot of things around in these files. I will fix any problems, but I have to know about them first. Then it is very easy, since the entire system for tileset-changing is done.

[CheatingChicken]

I thought you did just the plants, because that was the only file contained in \MasterworkDwarfFortress\ASCII\raw
If you changed the other files as well, the disregard what I just said there.

[Meph]

Check The matrix raws. I only copied everything ONCE, since ascii, ascii+, matrix and jolly bastion use the same raws. Otherwise the filesize would grow a lot.

[Buffbot]

I tried out some of the new ASCII sets.  I really liked the look of JollyBastion.

Sadly I could never get into DF with ASCII, so about 50% of the stuff onscreen looks like gibberish to me.  I'm sure I could learn it in time, but I just can't be bothered when tilesets are just easier for me.

I did however switch the Phoebus colors over to the pallete Jolly uses, and I'm really loving that.  Everything has a softer look and the buildings and units really stand out now.  I just wish it worked better with TrueType on, but I can live without it.  Though the really long names for things make it tricky to play without TT (not a criticism at MDF, just hoping Toady addresses TT soon). 

EDIT - Any thoughts on altering the Brewery reaction?  Not sure about anyone else, but even using some of the tricks from this thread, I'm still having the damnedest time getting it to use sugar properly.  I'm tempted to just mod the raw so it just takes sweet pods directly to save me the grief.

[CheatingChicken]

Ah, so that is where you put that

[Vherid]

I'm going through the inorganics and making sure the tiles match up currently, it's pretty simple, ill upload the changes/fixes if you want after.

[CheatingChicken]

I ran into a minor issue:
I just embarked (on a mirthful volcano). I keep getting messages that a "Strong Deep One" is no longer enraged and a "Green Devourer" just appeared on the Dead/Missing list.
Are those some creatures fighting in the caverns?

[Vhorthex]

Has anybody else had the problem where when the fort gets a Mayor, the sheriff job disappears?

Is it that the Mayor acts as the Sheriff as well?
