ooh, funny thing tho.
after seeing cavern flavor in one of the screenshots i always disable it tho its given me an error message since a few versions (i think)
the error message from the settings gui:

Failed to save option!

Invalid/missing tokens:
YESSTANDARTCAVERN[

BUT the option remains ticked anyway and everything of rendermax still works after that.

now when i exit the settings gui and start it up again, cavern flavor is then actually disabled and when i try to enable it again it gives me a similar same error message:

Failed to save option!

Invalid/missing tokens:
!NOCAVERNFLAVOR!
YESSTANDARTCAVERN[

clicking it after that without restarting the settings gui then just cycles between those 2 errors. well, hope that helps fixing this other bug

thanks for the help, rendermax is so awsum ^.^

Got an update on that bug.
I genned a new world to test rendermax in which it actually worked properly, i think.
Just building a brazier gives off light without having a fire started and the day-night transition was really slow and actually had an orange offset on dawn and dusk.

However, that was just a test world with a test embark so I genned another one anyway in which the console gave off an error and the day-night transition was really fast (every few seconds) and braziers stopped giving light. Errorcode is in attachment

nvm, i cant attach anything here it seems
anyway, the code looks like this:

rendermax.lua:25: Material not found
stack traceback:
            [C]: in function 'error'
            rendermax.lua:25: in function 'addMaterial'
            rendermax.lua:201: in main chunk


hope this helps >.< dont want to play without proper rendermax anymore

Hello there!

I have this particular problem in which fireplaces and braziers dont give off light after i light a fire in there although the sun cycles and dwarfs emit light alright.
rendermax, standard and no true type fonts.

Any ideas ?

Meph, I am disappoint.
Isn't the problem obvious to you since you patched everything together ?
I have exactly the same problem and its indeed not the manager who has changed but the reactions he has to check are higher than ever, resulting in slowdown.
So here is what I did to alleviate the slow and sluggish manager:
Go to raw -> objects and move the reactions you dont want or need somewhere else so the manager doesn't have to scan them when they are unrelated to your game, namely orc, kobold and adventurer (wanderer) reactions if you only play Dwarf Fortress.
There, still not fluid as vanilla but much more bearable.
I also took out 'cheat' and 'inventor' because I won't ever need or want these.
Running 3.4 Ghz Amd 1055t, maybe someone else can relate.

Now I can play again without being donked down whenever I want to get anything done by manager.

edit: You gotta gen a new world or delete those reaction.txt files out of your savegame

i just said what i meant to say. this doesn't bear any limitations in the present
oh uh, i see a smiley 

but seriously, i just had the intention of...testing the waters

shit, now everything is out of context

on second thought, he keeps changing and modifying his avatar, it creeps me off
no, seriously, wtf is going on with his avatar ?

The amount of times these threads pop up is disheartening. Running headfirst into a sword is death. It's not overpowered when it's meant to freaking kill you. They didn't exactly invent them to be blocked by a helmet and some cloth.

genius, didn't see it that way
i don't mind getting unqualified answers if their authors are not serious but you seem to be.
however, if you weren't serious, just put up some smileys

comparing anything from DF to the real world is just... i mean you can kill people by throwing your own blood o.O
