Play With Your Buddies / Livestream!
« on: May 24, 2014, 07:42:52 am »
I will be livestreaming me playing random games today, May 24 2014, starting at 4 PM Eastern Time on Twitch: http://www.twitch.tv/stupidelves

The games that may or may not be played are as followed; A Fist Full of Frags, Team Fortress 2, No More Room in Hell, Supreme Commander, Pokemon Conquest, Explorers of Darkness, Mother 3, and Fallen Earth.

The plan is to sometime switch to me playing DF sometime after 6. It might be at 8, might be at nine, it might be right at 6 that I switch to DF. I don't know.

I think I'll include a poll to see which games people want to see me play.

DF Community Games & Stories / Not Sure if This is Right Sub Forum

Would anyone be interested in watching a livestream of DF from me? I'm just curious, and I bet that my horrible voice will fit in lovely with the game.

DF Modding / I Think I Just Screwed Myself
« on: May 20, 2014, 03:04:02 am »
I made Bronze Colossi into a civ.

I'm being besieged by about thirty of them.

I'm going to lose, but it is going to be Fun.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Talking to Gods
« on: April 28, 2014, 08:29:53 pm »
Well, in the latest update from ToadyOne, it looks like we'll be able to talk to gods in Adventure Mode. But this is in Dwarf Mode section, you may be asking. Well, here's what I figure. Gods will probably be pissed if one were to have a hell hole of a town/fort that went against everything they stand for. So, think we'll be able to be besieged by gods?

DF Modding / Questions About Modding Playable Civs and Castes
« on: April 23, 2014, 09:37:08 pm »
How do I make a civ playable?

And how exactly do castes work? I'm planning on including several digimon civs into the game, and I want them to digivolve like a dwarf ages. Like, how a child turns into an adult. Would it be possible to turn something like this:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
into this:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
By the use of aging?

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Replicas
« on: April 15, 2014, 09:35:20 pm »
So, in Minecraft many people use the game to recreate famous landmarks from the real world and from other games.

So, has anyone ever used Dwarf Fortress to attempt recreating any famous structures? I know that I used it to recreate the Temple of Time from Twilight Princess.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Preferred Defense
« on: April 08, 2014, 02:18:15 pm »
Well, after reading about how someone else likes to use trenches in Dwarf Mode when it comes to defense in Design of a Fortress, I figured that this would be a good place to start up this topic.

What is your preferred method of defending your fortress?

I personally prefer building trenches in the beginning and having marksdwarves waiting in the areas above the trenches and having a group of melee dwarves inside the trenches waiting to clobber the nearest goblin that gets close enough.

If I ever find magma then I work to pump it up and into a basin that has several floodgates keeping it from going to the outside world unless a lever is pulled. And every time I forget to disband the squads and they always scream from inside the trenches as they burn.

Curses / LCS
« on: April 07, 2014, 08:10:53 am »
I've been looking at it, and judging from the work of Dwarf Fortress that I have played, is LCS good?

So, I got ADD, Anxiety, and depression.


What do you guys have?

And please try to keep this from being a "I have a more serious issue, PAY ATTENTION TO ME!" thread.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Sea Tile
« on: April 03, 2014, 05:10:27 pm »
I have heard that it was impossible, but has anyone here ever successfully drained an entire sea tile?

I imagine that it would work by building a long tunnel that would go directly to the circus so that the bottomless pits could be tested.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Baby is Killing my Fort
« on: April 01, 2014, 02:32:52 pm »
Yeah... A baby just ripped her mother in half and then turned into a werebeast.

On the one hand, that thing could infect all of my dwarves and make me have a werebeast fort.

On the other hand, she just ripped her mother in half and then she turned into a werebeast.

Just how strong is this baby?

DF Modding / Viktor Frankenstein
« on: March 27, 2014, 09:59:49 pm »
I am going to up front right now, I am no good at modding but I often have great ideas for mods.

I was wondering if it would be possible to make a mod that allows for mad scientist to be a profession? Like, they can gather old body parts and patch them together to make patchwork zombies at a special work station? Then later the patchwork zombies could learn to behave in society much as the original monster in the book did.

Then other scientists could have different buildings to work with, and then they could have their own siege weapons be made, like Tesla Coils and Plasma Coils.

Perhaps another type of scientist could create patchwork creatures that work as pseudo chimeras? And then these pseudo chimeras could be trained for war.

Think this is too insane? Think that it should be tried anyway? And, finally, think it could work?

DF General Discussion / Bronze Colossi
« on: March 27, 2014, 09:45:36 pm »
If I were to rig a machine in DF mode to pour lava on a Bronze Colossus, and then when it was out of the lava have the machine pour water on it, would it be frozen in place? As the bronze would harden around the creature's joints I figured it would be logical that it would be frozen in place.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Tanks
« on: March 27, 2014, 05:19:20 pm »
I know that this is a long ways away.

But one day we will be able to send out military out to raid other villages, goblin towers, necromancer towers, and the like. And when that day comes, someone will find a way to build a tank that is powered by cats, shoots lava, and has two posts on it for two marksdwarves to rain bolts down upon any unlucky enough to get in their way. There would also be a third attack that would allow them to destroy buildings. I know that this will happen because the people here are insane enough to try it.

DF Gameplay Questions / Navigation Problem
« on: March 26, 2014, 05:33:06 pm »
I'm working on building a tower and the metalsmith keeps on standing on the spots where the walls will be constructed and it keeps on giving me "Dwarves cancel Construct Building: Creature standing on site."

How do I stop this from happening?
