DF Modding / Dwarf Companion question...
« on: June 13, 2009, 12:07:50 am »
How do I mess with the amount of dwarves I embark with, and the amount of money I have?
I want to make a large, varied, and useful embark group, and have the money to get food for them.

Why not make poncium another smelter reaction with elf bones? Then smelt it with pig iron and flux for poncium steel.

I genned a world and started a fortress... everything on the non-hunting front is going well, including the fishing. I managed to start somewhere without carp.
However, my hunter just got mauled by a cougar.

What the hell does it mean by this? Do I have to build a well outside or something?

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Re: what if
« on: September 12, 2008, 09:58:02 pm »That would make it tough to eat your elk and minced unicorn roast having a Dwarf in a cage screaming violently and thrashing around with no pants on.
That's actually really Orky.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Outdoor fortresses.

This is, in theory, a good idea. You don't need to carefully block off refuse, as miasma isn't generated outside. You also can control the amount of stone you get, which is useful for obvious reasons.
This is, in practice, a god-awful idea. If you want all your dorfs to have housing, you have to spend years building them walls and whatnot, plus you'll end up having ridiculous amounts of wood instead from clearing out forested areas. Plus, it's a pain in the ass to defend.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Deathtrap fortresses for adventure mode exploring.
« on: September 07, 2008, 06:31:02 pm »
Does anyone else like making them? Personally I think half the fun of playing DF is making a messed-up deathtrap in fortress mode, letting goblins overrun it, and going through it in adventure mode.

« on: September 07, 2008, 03:38:14 pm »What part of this is yours?I'm going to assume it's the part with the battle from his last sentence.
Since I've never seen NGE, I'm really not qualified to make any comment.
Nailed it.

DF General Discussion / Re: Running DF with an Intel X3100?
« on: September 06, 2008, 10:35:42 pm »Hmm...I might go ahead with a dedicated gfx card instead. Was looking at the EVGA 8600gt on newegg. Probably wouldn't play 07-08 games, but it is only $50 (assuming EVGA has a good mail-in rebate reputation).An 8600? Actually not that bad. Certainly could only run Crysis on the lowest possible graphics if at all, but still just so much better then an ICS/IGPU (Integrated ChipSet/Integrated Graphics Processing Unit)
Dude, what? An 8600 will easily run Crysis on medium-high settings at 45-60fps.

The "Shinji = dorf" theory was so win, I decided to recreate the Sachiel vs. EVA-01 battle in DF announcement format.

DF Suggestions / Re: AHHH! I'M BLIND!
« on: September 06, 2008, 09:15:14 pm »QuoteThe most effective ammo, however, would probably be the obvious choice
I kinda hope all the large weapons will make it into Seige weapon, or just Weapon platform, form eventually... Imagine a Serrated disk Launcher
The spinning adamantinum large serrated disk strikes Goblin McGoblin in the head!
The head flies off in an arc!
The spinning adamantinum large serrated disk strikes Goblin McGoblin in the lower body!

DF Suggestions / Usable vehicles.
« on: September 06, 2008, 02:51:13 pm »
There's wagons in dorf mode, but they're AI-only, and I would like to see my dorfs and adventurer be able to commandeer vehicles.
Wagons, bicycles, any sort of vehicle would be good.
Hell, maybe it could be modded so that dorfs can build mecha... Dorfen Lagann, anyone?

I also have a world with no playable bronze colossi where I like to see how far I can get solo as a human.
(For the playable bronze colossus, I also modded it so that the playable version has a brain and is intelligent.)
