DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Re: I need help about masterwork!
« on: August 22, 2014, 01:31:43 am »
I'm afraid I don't know much about Masterwork, but the people in the masterwork forum do: http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?board=24.0. You'll probably have much better luck getting an answer there  ;)

This might better be posted under the bugs tracker, but I wanted to see if anyone else is experiencing the same thing (I did a search and nothing came up).
The bug tracker works in mysterious ways. Yes, items teleporting when they become available is a thing: http://www.bay12games.com/dwarves/mantisbt/view.php?id=6970

DF General Discussion / Re: Things I have never done in DF...

1) Never made a mine cart. I'm not entirely sure why, it's just one of those things I continuously neglect trying.
2) Never made soap. Because, like, dwarves.

Tolkien [...] The Silmarillion.
Wait, are you saying Toady is going to die, and DF will be finished and published by his son?

Simile - sometimes they take us to unexpected places  ;)

Yes I see that quote. It is assuming some need to have everything be simultaneous that I am just not agreeing with.

Well no. That quote has nothing whatsoever to do with programming, and absolutely everything to do with personality. It's not Toady saying collaborating with others would be inefficient, confusing or anything else like that, it's simply him saying he wants to work on his project alone.

Sorry, I can't think of a better way of putting it, really. He's an introverted guy, he wants to build the game for, and by, himself.

OgreRTShaderSystem.dll, I suppose it's a false positive?

The Ogre3D forums suggest that Avast has problems with the library in question, yes:  http://www.ogre3d.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=80015

DF General Discussion / Re: Favourite new features
« on: July 09, 2014, 12:08:00 pm »
I'm liking the new big trees more than I was expecting to. They look the part, add quite a bit of depth to the upper z-levels, and birds smack into them.
... I understand some naysayers don't consider that last bit a feature.  :o
