DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / A story of Giant Beetles...
« on: January 27, 2010, 08:33:58 pm »
If you keep up with the things that made you sad today thread, you already know I lost my entire fort except for Crabwarrior and Hippoman. Crabwarrior was heavily wounded and died shortly after I arrived as an adventurer. (from a beetle.)

Then I found Hippoman, it was too late, I led the beetle and green slime right too him. I killed the slime but died from teh beetle. I came back as another adventurer, this time Hippoman II, I started too far away, came too late, Hippoman had died.

Now with all of the original 7 dead from Giant Beetles, and after Hippoman II died from the same Giant Beetle that killed his Mother, I thought it was time for a reclaim.

This time I sent out with Lutz II, Tony II, Denver II, Isaac II, Hippoman III, Crabwarrior II, Alfonze, Lennon, Kennath Allen, and Johannes as leaders of the groups of men to rid the fortress of giant beetles, ratmen, giant moles, and antmen.

The story that follows is their tale.

~~~~~~~~~~~
Copied directly from the things that made you sad today thread:

GGRARRRARRGHHHRUUUUARRRGHHH why have you forsaken me so?!

The bastards moved in.

Hippoman, Lutz, Crabwarrior, Isaac, Denver, and Tony are no where to be found, but here is my second adventurer, Hippoman II.

Last but not least, I have the force to take out all those bastards and give my dead 8 a good burial.

Edit:
Out of all the dwarves. Hippoman III died first.

Next was Kennath Allen.

Soon after Denver II was killed.

We have a couple of these douchebags.

As I suspected, Lennon was killed by a shot in the back.
And at the same time, Johannes was killed as well.

It gets worse and worse, Isaac II was next.

Another one bites the dust. Seeya Alfonze.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Four dwarves remain. An Insane Woodworker, a injured Jeweler, Lutz II, and Tony II.

Scratch that, Tony II is dead.

List of Leaders:
Lutz II, Denver II, Tony II, Isaac II, Hippoman III, Crabwarrior II, Johannes, Lennon, Kennath Allen, and Alfonze.


~~~~~~~~~~~
Cog and Lutz II live on. The war dog died when I arrived as Alfonze II in adventure mode. Alfonze is still there, but the body of Tony II is gone.

Cog is a goner, but we might be able to save Lutz II.

General Discussion / Things that made you ANGRY today!
« on: January 17, 2010, 09:43:10 pm »
I've wanted to make one of these (plus now all we're missing is scared), and since I just got really pissed I decided to make it now.

I was playing Adventure mode, got really far, minimized to change music and when i went back to it, it crashed. RIght before I saved to get off.
What the fuck.

Life Advice / Philosophy.
« on: January 11, 2010, 08:37:17 pm »
My brother is majoring in it. He's going to get a doctorate in it.
Basically all you do is think right? Well philosophy sounds stupid and boring, although I know it isn't.
so don't keep bitching at me at how important it is, my brother already does that.

I hate thinking. I hate it alot. I think when I'm bored, and I'm always bored. When I think, I think about every possible outcome and different fantasies and timelines.

So to keep this post short, i'll ask now.
Should I look into learning some philosophy?

Edit: screwed up when moving it. Sorry bout that.

General Discussion / How do I hear things in my head?
« on: December 31, 2009, 02:42:15 am »
When you think, you talk in your head. When I type this sentence I talk in my head.

How do I hear what I say in my head? Can it be called talking if I am not actually talking? I'm imagining what I'm saying and I understand and comprehend it, but how do I hear what I imagine?

(Yes i've tried googling this.)

Ugh its so annoying. I cant get anything done.
As some of you know, I'm modding my own super creature.
http://www.bay12games.com/forum/index.php?topic=45915.0

But I cannot find out whats wrong. Everything they do, has some sort of dangerous terrain here or there. And they keep trying...I'd salute them, if it wasn't so annoying!

I think it's due to them moving at 100 speed, they're tripping over their own giant feet. But i wanted to check with everyone else first. Any ideas?

I want to play as my super hippos. (since I can't find any super hippos...)

I right now only have Hippos in my riverlake file. and at the very bottom of the standard creatures file, I have a edited version of hippos with some more dwarven abilities.

I can play as hippos in Adventure mode, but thats not good enough. Here's my 3 files.

Spoiler: large_riverlake (click to show/hide)

Spoiler: entities (click to show/hide)

Spoiler: standard creatues (click to show/hide)

Also, why in the error log do i continually see:

Unrecognized Creature Token: [TILE

And why can I no longer find hippos anywhere?! Before I made 2 of them, I still couldnt find any!

EDIT: turned the HIPPO creature in creature_standard to HIPPOMAN, changed the entity name to HIPPOMAN. changed entity creature to [CREATURE:HIPPOMAN]

Also, forgot to mention, every time I change dwarves from civ controllable to indivi controllable, i cannot make new worlds. And when I take them out completely I cannot make new worlds.

DF Gameplay Questions / What?! Dwarf Fortress sucking up 98% of my CPU?!
« on: December 01, 2009, 06:27:56 pm »
Every time I run normal, vanilla, ASCII dwarf fortress, its sucks up so much CPU for some reason. It never used to do this, and now after my XP's reformat it does. What the hell?

DF Gameplay Questions / What do I do with these config files?

Life Advice / Need a OpenGL Pro or Master.

A guy I know is rendering terrain from a .RAW file but when rendering the triangle strips, they never appear. He thinks it may be lost due to his rendering setup

Talk to me, and i'll pass it on to him, or get you a direct line to him.

DF Adventure Mode Discussion / (Monster name) killed by thrown cat meat!
« on: October 16, 2009, 09:08:12 pm »
I know thats not what it really says but it's all I remeber from my days playing the fallout 3 mod and going into tunnels only armed with cat meat. Sometimes I threw it, other times i just smashed peoples heads in with it.

Such a great game, I was wondering if anyone else knew any cool little things I could do.

(seeing as I've never found a king, quest, shop, weapon, things to do,...anything.)

I need something to learn.
I have 0 skills and 200% of time and skill I could spend on something.

Seeing as I have my own business and website up, I plan to learn a computing language.

Which shoudl I learn, seeing as I was using C until a bunch of people started telling me that it sucks, its useless and that I have to use couts and >> and IOSTREAMS!!!!!!!! which pisses me off for That stuff makes it longer and much harder.

Im fucking pissed and I want to make applications or games using a language. Maybe rougelikes.

What should i learn.
