DF Suggestions / Re: Botched butchery

Heh, imagining a shredded butcher, in a blood-drenched butchery, as a elephant with a light gray wound to the head storm through the fortress.

I can't tell you that yet as I haven't implemented networking, but I'm pretty sure there won't.

I'm trying to work up motivation to finish off the text stuff in the engine, but it is really, REALLY not coming to me.

If you mean announcements and descriptions, i could do them, thats actually kinda fun for me.

All I want to know is if it still works well with a lot of dwarfs mid game. I'm hoping the op is still following the thread despite the rantyness in it.

Yeah me too.

Laptops only have bad cooling if you block the vents, which admittedly is easy to do.

But what the hell is going on in this topic? My goodness.

I... I dont know...

Holy shit look at it though...

I wondered where all the brilliant game-makers went when after playing some main-stream games on my computer, at school i whipped out a GameBoy SP and started playing tetris, enjoying it by several degrees more.

 It was the most fun that little device has ever given me.

Ill admit the 'asus makes motherboards' was absolutely absurd.

However laptops have shit cooling, like it or not.

They do run fine on standard settings generally speaking but they cant take much else and still get pretty warm after a bit.

Go ahead, bring it on.

Ctrl-Shift-Esc

300MB?

OS takes up 100MB when it's deciding to be fat and lazy?

Is there a "netbook" (I hate that term) that ships with less than half a gig? A good-quality one that ships with less than a gig?

RAM isn't a significant factor. (Nor is it a significant factor in a lot of other "RAM-heavy" games; even Crysis runs out of things to cache pretty quickly.)

Dude, its not even that big a deal, go to hell.

You know what imma post a picture of task manager just to prove you wrong.

Average day of browsing:


EDIT: something about this thread is making everyone kinda moody...

Well with the upgrade to 2gb of ram, thats bound to help with me.
Dwarf Fortress is not significantly RAM-bound on any remotely recent computer. Learn how a computer works before making such assumptions.

Not significantly RAM-Bound? Really? I honestly didnt know that.

The assumption that i dont know how computers work when your clearly stating i dont know how DF works is also a bit of a problem.


Your telling me i dont know how computers work when you arent presented any real data in that field.

I know perfectly well how computers work, including the fact that, i built my own computer, and its significantly more effecient then a manufacturer-built machine and that i know:

More ram at lower speed > Smaller quantity at greater speed


EDIT: Kinda dramatic response, and alittle mean-spirited, but it kinda threw me off balance for a sec.

Probably not, because generally speaking a game programmed in a certain gaming engine can only be run in that engine.
