There's still a lot to port to the Steam version of Dwarf Fortress, and more to develop later for me, so I would like to see where the interest lies.

Please vote what feature should make it into Volume II. I will consider the winning option first.

This is the beginning of my adaptation of my old Genesis dwarf fortress mode, maintained through the years by TomiTapio on forums.
- The Olde mod thread: http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=52988.0
- The most recent Classic version supported: http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=156059.420
Due to the fact that everything needs graphics now, I will be adding content in big volumes. This is the Volume I.
