DF Gameplay Questions / Re: Dwarf Fortress Video Tutorial

If it doesnt already I wouldnt mind Adventurer mode having an impact on the Dwarf Fortress mode. I'm not sur how much of an impact I'm thinking. Maybe a travelling bard comes and regales you peasants with tales of the adventurers exploit I.e. Strangling a giant. Or maybe you can buld a statue or a holiday is named in said heroes honour....

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Nothing to trade?
« on: January 14, 2007, 05:57:00 pm »
uhh why is it the past three caravans have had nothing to bring me?

Also I thought you needed to meet certain requirements for elves to appear? I just had a caravan show up and coincedentally they too had nothing to trade me

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Are Dwarves prone to Spontanious combustion?
« on: January 11, 2007, 06:34:00 am »
I had a Mason get taken by a mood for a couple days and naturally he annexed the masons workshop which was fine with me.  What was not fine was that several days later He canceled his mood and went insane Immidiately after which he went beserk! Three seperate dwarves were interrupted by his actions Seeing this I hit space to pause the game and locate the fool only to find him dead and every adjacent square around him splattered in blood and liberally (2 or 3 pieces) dusted with dwarf chunks....  

I'll admit seeing the deceased dwarf, the recent announcements concerning him, and the swarm of animals milling about got me curious  .  Unfortunately I cant check his profile for some reason. owel It will forever remain a mystery. All be it a really amusing one to think about.


Anyone else have any Mysteries to share?

Edit: I've just had a Carpenter go mad then end up on the deceased roster as well...
   :confused: Only I cant find where he died... Once madness took him though he upstaged his insane predecessor by interrupting about Half a dozen dwarves with his final moments one of which was a child.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Re: Custom creatures and items
« on: January 11, 2007, 05:02:00 am »
Yeah I got those too.

Anything for more variety. Not that there isnt a lot of variety. I just like so much I'll never see it all. Gives me a reason to keep playing.

Hell You should see my Oblivion and Morrowind with all the tweaks lol.

Hmmm What would be the stats on an army of Cabbage patch dolls heheh

Hmm... Hey what if theres a creature type that emerges from refuse piles? like a plague of flies or a golem of some sort.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Pet Infestation.
« on: January 10, 2007, 12:38:00 am »
.. Seriously I have like 4 dwarves that have like at least 6 foals up to horses with a smattering of dogs and cats following them around... What can I do about this?

Can I do anything about this?
Do pets have any function?

bah! I'll slaughter the lot of them or let the floodgate malfunction and flood the map again.

« on: January 07, 2007, 03:40:00 am »
Umm Because I'm new I would really appreciate a beginners tutorial on things like:

- The easiest way to create a farm.
- Some advice for the best material to use for Support Pillars or Bridges.
- Whats a good starting build.
- Should I focus on digging a huge catacombs or just a few chambers for shelter?

Any advice is appreciated.
