I'm using Quickfort with the lastest DF version without any issues. You do need to be in dig mode(press 'd') before using ALT-D.

There's almost always fresh water in the caverns, unless you're really unlucky or changed some world gen settings.

Some nice designs! I especially the spiral room. I do tend to avoid 1 tile corridors, I believe it helps with path finding.
I have made some designs myself but they were made for Quickfort and are in .xls format and thus not compatible. They're nothing special anyway just some standard basic stuff for basic forts.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Re: What's going on in your fort?
« on: July 22, 2018, 12:15:21 am »Hum. Why are there four minecarts in a square? Minecart minecart qsp?
I am using Qsp's but that is just a regular stockpile. I used the minecarts to haul up magma for my smelters.

Half of the kids in my fort are camping out at the clothier's shop. They've been there for months, probably waiting for the next DwarfAirMax shoes.

DF Gameplay Questions / Re: Your Embark Team?

High level in doge will make it harder to train armor user and weapon skills, so it's a trade-off.
Weapon skill still levels very fast. Armor User does lag behind. I might try making some leather clothing early on to see if that helps.

For normal (non dangerous) starts I usually go with this setup:
1. Grower 5 / Cook 5
2. MetalSmith 5 / WeaponSmith 5 ( also gets Mason)
3. Mechanic 5 / Carpenter 3 / Appraiser 1 / Judge of Intent 1 ( Party Leader)
4. Dodge 4 / Teacher 5 / Spear 1 (also gets Miner)
5. Dodge 4 /Teacher 5 / Spear 1 (also gets Miner)
6. Dodge 4 /Teacher 5 / Axe 1 (also gets Miner)
7. Dodge 4 /Teacher 5 / Axe 1 ( gets temporary skills to build most workshops / Does hauling)
The idea is, mining is super easy to level, especially when you start in a few layers of soil. Dodge is relatively hard to train but very useful. Teacher will (hopefully) make them better squad leaders and make new recruits learn faster.
Once I get some migrants the soldiers will start training and the migrants will become miners. Eventually all 4 soldiers will become squad leaders.
I also bring some metal ores and wood/coal to create some weapons and shields right away.

Thanks that fixed it for me. I do get a network inaccessible popup when starting DT but everything seems to be working fine.

« on: November 26, 2017, 04:02:22 pm »crashes when I try to read dwarves.
do I have to set an option so that therapist will use the new .ini i created?
No, at least not on Windows. Just create the .ini file in the right folder and copy the right text(x32 or x64) into the file. That should be it.

« on: November 26, 2017, 02:26:22 pm »I can't believe I'm asking this, I'm such a scrub, but what specific ini file do I update with the untested 64x bit code?
create a new .ini file in the following location:
...\Dwarf Therapist\share\memory_layouts\windows
paste the data into it, optionally rename the file. (for example v0.44.02_x64graphics.ini)
Testing results:
loads dwarfs up fine on Windows 0.44.02 x64 but as mentioned earlier it does not show dwarf names.
assigning labors works
assigning nicknames does not work.
