Dear fellow Urists,

Does anyone else experience a drop in FPS if you enlarge the game window beyond, say, 1920x1080?
If I enable the game's FPS counter I see graphics cap out at 60 (50) FPS regardless of init config (I capped game FPS to 60 to avoid excessive update rates though).
If I enalrge the window to 5120x1440 the same save has 60 (~25) FPS. with UI FPS also the game's responsiveness drops and key inputs and mouse presses are lagging.
Fullscreen and windowed mode doesnt make a difference.

Any help on optimizing my config to be able to play on my large screen would be appreciated

Ah damn!

I just found a very awesome forgotten beast wandering around my caverns. A giant human composed of flames. It hurls fireballs and breathes fire and apparently water evaporates where it walks and the ground catches fire. I activated all traps and alerted my military in the hopes of seeing a gloreous battle any maybe even catch the thing.....

its NOT HOSTILE!!! it now sits in my meeting area watching my dwarfes as they do their daily business. Occasionally it wanders the fortress (which luckily is made of stone) and thats it! I now have a forgotten beast pet monster! I sure hope it asks for citizenship! still....very disappointing

I have a strange effect in my forts. Sometimes,when merchants or invaders  enter the map, they vanish and all the stuff they wear or carry with them is dumped just outside the map only vissible on the stock overview. Whrn food is part of the load sometines a dwarf travels to the edge of the map and fetches a fish out of thin air. The barrels are also assigned to stockpiles which leads to malfunctioning stockpiles. Solution is to use the stock screen to mark all of these to dump and then use dfhack autodump to gain access but this gets annoying with the time...

Anybody else affected by this bug? There is a mantis post but it is marked as resolved which it isn't as I run 0.44.05

As far as I have seen there are many dfhack scripters here so maybe you can help me out a little on my quest to clean up my fortress. After being under constant attacks by goblins, humans and even the undead piles of corpses and mangled feet, hands, heads, neck, teeth are scattered around the map. And since having my dwarves walking out there to collect and dump the stuff is a guarantee for fun I thought 'nah just let it lay there for a year or two and the cloth and rejains will rot away'. Well go figure, they dont.

On my quest to find a solution I found the dfhack plugins for deterioratecorpses and food and copied them to also affect forbidden ammo but for some reason the scripts only affects ammo shot by my dwarves and not invaders ammo and not all corpses, bones and so on disappear. Dwarves of course remain but also certain horses or goblins or human bodies just won't wear.

I would appreciate any help here, maybe I overlooked a script that already solves this or I'm doing something wrong...
