Ahhhhhh thank you!

Used q to examine this cage, then r to make it a room. I'd like to make this room a jail, but typing j does nothing because "Justice" is grayed out on the right as you can see in the image. What am I missing?



Also want to point out I do have a captain of the guard.

It was a world that I gen-ed myself then exported. That way it is unique!

DF General Discussion / A dwarf fortress canvas print for my office
« on: September 26, 2014, 08:48:15 pm »
I'm starting on an Oculus Rift project, and my wife suggested I get some art in the office to stimulate my creativity. After searching and searching for something tasteful, creative, and not distracting, I gave up and ordered this 30x30 canvas print from Costco for $100. I'm so excited I came here to post it first before even hanging it up!

That was it! Genius!

Just a few tiles from my Quern in a Furniture stockpile is an empty -kiwi leather bag-, so why does my Farmer refuse to mill my cave wheat?

Any ideas?

Hmm. That memory layout for OS X isn't working for me. It looks like the checksums don't match. Does it matter what version of Dwarf Therapist I am using? I am using OSX 0.6.12b05.

Also, FWIW, this happened after I tried full screen mode - which didn't work, so I had to force-quit DF and then restart it in windowed mode.

The actual game is only 1/4 of the window. I thought I maybe messed something in the init files, so I just downloaded a fresh copy of DF and this issue still happens.

Does anybody know how to resolve this? It seems like it's probably some weird environment issue on my end, seeing as it happens after running a clean download of DF.

DF General Discussion / Re: Best tileset on slant

You vote by clicking the up arrow on the choice you like. I am only familiar with the Haberdash tileset, so I've added that option and voted it up myself.

The reason I don't want to just ask "What is your favorite tileset" is because it's really hard to determine from a whole bunch of forum posts a "best" or "top 5" tilesets. You'd have to go through and tally votes, etc. Much easier to just use a platform that already supports that kind of thing.

I've gone ahead and added Mike Mayday's tileset to the options! Vote for it if you think it's the best.

Do you know of anybody who has done this with Mac?

DF General Discussion / Best tileset on slant
« on: September 12, 2014, 11:44:29 am »
I wanted to pick a square tileset I liked, but looking at the wiki (http://dwarffortresswiki.org/index.php/Tileset_repository#8.C3.978) it is not at all clear what tilesets are crap and which are generally likable.

So I created a Slant question here: http://www.slant.co/topics/1833/~what-is-the-best-dwarf-fortress-tileset

If you aren't familiar with Slant, it is a new up and coming site where you can vote for the "best" of whatever. In this case, we could all get together and put up our favorite tilesets along with why they are so great. I hope I discover some new great tilesets!

Anybody care to join me?

Keldane - thanks for the info.  So what's the best way to make steel now?

I've been away from DF for a while and I'm just coming back.  I noticed that when I select an embark site, I don't get a list of the minerals at the site, instead it just says something like this:

Soil
Shallow Metals
Deep Metals

Previously, I could tell if there was dolomite or limestone or granite.  Did Toady make mention as to why this change happened?  It's really hard to find a location now with bituminous coal or lignite, and so it's hard for me to make enough steel to make armor and weapons to defend against sieges.  Anybody know why and when this happened?
