DF General Discussion / No seeds available?
« on: April 07, 2010, 10:48:19 am »
I have some tiles that I built a farm plot on, and when I select them using 'q' I get a "No seeds available for this location" message.

Right across the hall is a food stockpile with some helmet spawn in it.
Looking at the farm plot with 'k' I see the following:
Farm Plot
Furrowed sandy clay loam
Inside  Dark  Subterranean

I'm at the very beginning of the game as well, but I'm not sure if that should make a difference.
It seems like I should be able to plant my helmet spawn, any ideas why I'm getting the "no seeds available" message?

DF General Discussion / Tileset?
« on: April 06, 2010, 03:08:20 pm »
Is there a specific tileset or characterset that is more popular than the rest?  The repositories in the wiki are absolutely gigantic.

Does anybody know which one captnduck uses in his video tutorials?

DF General Discussion / What is the best way to run Dwarf Fortress on my Mac?
« on: April 05, 2010, 06:06:12 pm »
This game looks really cool, and I want to see if I can't break past the famous learning curve.  I have a MacBook Pro, though, and I can't seem to find a Mac OS X version built after 2008 (DF 0.28.181.40d (September 8, 2008)).  Is it no longer built for Mac OS?  What is the common method of playing on a Mac?

I do have VMWare Fusion installed; would it be good to native boot into XP when playing (for greater performance), or just for the original map creation phase?

Thanks for any help/suggestions you can give.
