DF Gameplay Questions / Steam: How to Find Volcanos for Embark?
« on: December 11, 2022, 04:51:56 pm »
I have seen lots of people discussing how they embarked at a volcano, but when I try, I simply cannot locate any.  The world map in the steam edition is so unreasonably small that I cannot possibly make out most of the details, so I simply so cannot even see the volcanos to even know what to look for.

In the past, this was pretty easy, but now, I cant search for volcanos on embark (I think this was a DFhack feature that didnt get integrated), and the extremely small tiles make it so I cannot even see anything :(

Am I missing a search feature or setting?

DF Suggestions / Steam: Please Let Us Zoom In Much Futher
« on: December 11, 2022, 02:34:40 am »
I am using a 4k TV in my living room to play this game from the couch, and even with my glasses on with max zoom, the details of almost everything are much too small to see.  It is really hard for me to play currently. 

If my eyesight was any worse, it would essentially be impossible to play, rather than just difficult to play.

DF Adventure Mode Discussion / List of Major Things to Do in Adventure Mode?
« on: February 19, 2019, 01:00:50 pm »
Im looking for major things to do in adventure mode for a playthrough.  My current goals are "standard" adventure stuff like training, fighting some egabeasts, becoming a vampire, then a necromancer

but thats using my knowledge from years ago.  Ive also heard to go find a vault.  Is there a list of stuff like that to do?

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Mission Question
« on: May 05, 2018, 04:08:43 pm »
Ive been trying to send squads out on a mission for a while now to recover artifacts.  Everytime I try though, they come back empty handed with a report thats blank (outside of the one line about departing).  Is this a bug?  Am I doing something wrong?

On the wiki, it discusses Tech or Advancements here:  http://dwarffortresswiki.org/index.php/DF2014:Topic


How do I actually see what my civilization has researched?  Is that possible?

DF Gameplay Questions / Best way to move prisoners to an arena?
« on: December 26, 2015, 09:03:31 pm »
I remember a while back on DF2012, I set up an arena to drop prisoners into with an airlock of doors that let my squads in to fight them.  My original plan was to make multiple floors and designate a pit to have my workers toss them into the pit.  This didnt work as the prisoner goblins and kobolds would instantly scare my workers and run free causing havok. So from them on out I would go through the lengthy process of setting up cages in the area and connecting all of them to levers and freeing them all. This process would take a rather long time. 

Is it still this way?  Can I just have my dwarfs move the goblins and stuff and toss them into pits again or is there another, better way?

DF Adventure Mode Discussion / How to Drink from Well? / Why is the ocean Frozen?
« on: December 13, 2015, 06:55:02 pm »
Started playing adventure mode again with the new version, and decided to fill my my bag with water, but the river was frozen.  I found my way to a well and cant figure out how to get water from it.

Also, in trying to find water, I found out that the entire ocean is frozen.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Tips on "removing" Children
« on: July 17, 2012, 12:50:22 pm »
Im tired of having all these kids eat up my artifact spots, so what are good ways of disposing of them? Using a danger room has been good in removing babies, and theres about 20 babies in my tombs down below, but children rarely walk into there. should I have a pressure plate connected to upright wooden spikes in heavily tavelled areas, or is that too dangerous to regular dwarves??

« on: April 19, 2012, 12:21:36 pm »
How can I import civs/creatures from one mod to another? Ive played these two mods extensively and basically want to adventure mode as one race from one in the other.

http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=98196.0

I want to play masterwork here, and add in some of the races from:

http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=95891.150

I want to play as one of those and run around being powerful and killing goblins and stuff >:3

What txts would I need to copy over? Is it that simple?

DF Gameplay Questions / Not attracting Migrants
« on: February 23, 2012, 06:57:34 am »
Im playing a reclaimed fort because it was an awesome site (Good Volcano Forest with Sedementary everywhere). The previous version died at 16 dwarves because I forgot to keep making drinks and the river froze.

Anyway, I have 12 dwarves in this reclaim and no more are coming. Ive laid all the deads ones to rest with coffins/slabs except one, and thats because he fell in the volcano when he went insane and is "missing" still as a ghost.

How do I attract migrants? ive into my second year and none are comming. Ive had more than 16 dwarves die in forts in the past and they still came. Also, I havent had any artifacts, is that bugged?

DF Modding / Modding nobles?
« on: October 28, 2011, 08:50:23 am »
is there a mod that makes Nobles work properly again? Failing that, is there a way to edit the raws to let me appoint the migrant nobles like I can with other nobles?
