I'd say, update to .NET 2 (or later). Had a few problems m'self, updated (and weeded out some trojans/whatever on my laptop in the process) and got it working.

There should be the thread for Dwarf Companion. Lemme look for it...

This link taken from the wiki is what I installed. Maybe try that? I think the python compiled version (bear with me, I have no idea about python, I only know some measly BASIC) has that. It gives you an exe that's compiled to run automatically.

If it doesn't work, hit start, run, type in cmd. In the dosbox, locate your DwarfCompanion folder (Assuming it's C:\DwarfCompanion, type "c:", "cd dwarfcompanion") and just write "dfcompanion_prototype" without the quotes.

Since he hasn't mentioned miasma, nope, does not qualify as Boatmurdered.

Seriously though, any DF experiment HAS to have miasma.

Heh, a moth later you'll be sending DVD sets of DFwiki!

Seriously, I guess it'd be MUCH easier if we contact Senso, the admin, and ask for a dump. Or wait for him to check this thread. I guess there's a seven hour difference between where I live (GMT+2) and where he lives (GMT-6, prolly).

Ah, you killed the cats of the crazy old cat ladies. Well, that was bound to happen. I'd get rid of all the stray cats, in a cage preferably, then wait for the pets to die of age. Editing the cat's lifespan might work better... but still, one season later half of their pets can go poof, right along with their limited sanity.

5x5 rooms, masterwork furniture, even doors, an artifact or two. If you're REALLY bothered, give them seperate throne rooms/bedrooms/offices. Mixing rooms lower the value. But then again, if you give a lot of your dwarves dabbling masonry, and come out with a few artifact furniture, you can cram all of your nobles in one room, THEN pull the lever.

...You're going to pull the lever, aren't you? HUH?

Gen a lot of worlds, play with the world gen and hope for the best. By default, HFS, cave rivers/pools and caves mostly form only on mountain tiles, thus crippling your log income. If you can eke out till the first autumn, you can live by imported tower caps. Or make a tower cap farm underground. You'll need an underground pool, and to, like, devote a FULL z level for it, though, tower caps grow slow. Farming underground will be easy with an undergrond river too. But mountains mostly don't have sand or arable soil, so you have to either hack some of your tiles to be sand, or muddy them and hope some grow trees/bushes then turn to sand. even a 1x1 sand tile works for sand gathering, anyway. And instead of checking every tile if they did turn into sand, just try to build a dirt road (b-O). Enlarge it and hover over your muddied rock field. If it's light green, it's sand.

You can try looking for underground water pools AND rivers, or underground rivers. Try genning medium or large worlds, small worlds have lesser chance of containing a tile with all of the fun stuff.

A... city in India?  Maybe in some sense, but I know it mainly as a figher pilot from Freespace 2.

IOTA WING, DO YOU COPY? IOTA WING?!

Next version I'm hacking in vasudans.
