Masterwork DF / Masterwork Dwarf Fortress: Fedora installation:
« on: February 01, 2017, 12:59:07 pm »
So, I've been trying for a while to get the Linux version (http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=160636.0) of Masterwork to function on my Fedora 24 install, to no avail.

So, my question is, to those out there who are far more experienced than I am with Dwarf Fortress:
How do you get Masterwork Dwarf Fortress to run natively (without Wine, or some other form of compatibility software) on Fedora (more specifically Fedora 24)?

To note: it is much easier to get vanilla Dwarf Fortress to work on Fedora:

Currently I'm using Fedora and to do, or modify anything is a chore (without damaging Fedora itself, or the game).

I casually played Dwarf Fortress a few years ago, though was never active in the community and didn't really investigate much into the game outside of the standard Wiki articles and vanilla game play.

However, I have recently decided to return as I dropped things like World of Warcraft (as it became asinine and mundane, more of a chore than hobby). In my return to Dwarf Fortress and with a lighter workload, I have decided to investigate a little more not only into the community, but into the game play and embellishment of it (hence finally making a forum account).

So, I come to my question, what modifications do you consider as standard for a fresh installation?

Modifications that improve upon the graphics, magic and other aspects without drastically changing the ambience or theme of it.

Thank you for your time.
