This is all I've really seen of my desktop for the last few days.

150 Dwarves at 70FPS is *Heaven*.

Quit your whining.

Downloaded 31_12, decided I would leave the FPS uncapped (I normally cap it at 100).

Embark on a 4X4 area. Paused, my FPS steadily climbs. The highest I've let it go so far is 40,000. It takes 10 seconds to fall back down to 280 (6 dwarves-don't ask) after unpausing.

When I hit 150 dwarves, 70 FPS is going to feel like hell.

This was a cheap computer too.

Wait, what?

I think the best way for a program like that to work would be RNGs develop a legal and random Embark Profile.  Then the program opens and Runs DF to gen a new world.  After that it would start a new game, choose a random spot, embark, and choose the profile it made.

Turn around, spray and pray at torso level.  Enemies will die, but zombie teammates won't.  Open the CD tray to find The Men Who Stare at Goats DVD.

I guess if we could choose to export a certain group, all, or from a list would be cool, but that's up to you.

Runesmith works with the current version so I'm fine.  I just can't make my own memory offset files so yeah.  :P

Newgrounds Audio Portal.  Lots of Electronica, Techno, Trance, Dance, etc.  It takes some browsing o find what you want but I find it to be worth it.  Also, every Wednesday the player off to the side updates and showcases some of the best songs and you can give them a listen.

I can't wait for Shader mode.  I have a GeForce 8500GT so it should work great.  Right now I'm testing to see which of the other modes works best for me.

Edit:  Looks like 2DSW at 38 FPS is the one for me.  It went faster than the others except for maybe Frame Buffer which was wild between 32 and 40 FPS.  I couldn't get a read on Partial because it flickers at Partial:0 and Partial:2.  Full test results here.
