General Discussion / The internet shall soon achieve its purpose
« on: December 01, 2012, 08:50:25 am »
Upon discovery of this:
http://hamletbook.com
I have concluded that the internet will have achieved its purpose, as soon as this is finished. Just thought y'all might like to know.

And even better? They're going to be doing a play!

PS
For those of you with a fear of links, it's a Kickstarter acquiring money for a choose-your-own-adventure Hamlet. It's written by Ryan North (of Dinosaur Comics) and will contain pictures from just about anyone who has ever drawn on the internet.

DF General Discussion / Re: What is wrong with DF on Mac?! HELP!

This happens to me when I run df from a relative path, e.g. ./stuff/df/df. Go into Terminal, cd into the df directory (you might type cd and drag the folder onto the window), and run ./df. If that doesn't work, ~/path/to/df/df will.
Just double-clicking on the df script should also work.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Re: Hilarious Civ/Dwarf/Fortress/other Names Compilation
« on: July 23, 2012, 10:34:39 am »
Weirdest thing happened in my latest world... a line of giant dingos, who I like to think are related, each of which spent its entire life dueling humans. The humans never won. Here are their names:
Wispyfat
Ringoil
Crazymachines (my favorite)
and Twoholds.




On the same world I got:
Flimsyaligned
Lani Firstpants
Ironsaffron
Hal Championshark
Stumeb the Bewildering Cloak
Otir Charcoalwheats the Autumnof Climates
and Iwo Cosmossplash, the High Pot.
Oh, and Ciba Skulljudge (don't remember title), my adventurer. His skull was judged, after two straight days dueling a vampire lawgiver (Mr. Charcoalwheats).

It's an artifact, so that has to count for something?

Unless he's on a Mac. Then it's Cmd+Shift+4, spacebar, click on DF window, upload resulting image somewhere.
Profit!

Looking forward!

DF Adventure Mode Discussion / Cheating for a good cause
« on: April 08, 2012, 09:43:12 am »
Tal Stanceward the Comedic Justice is a human vampire. Every day, having no money, he would have to beg and hunt for enough food to feed his starving family. Tal was joking with a friend one day, and accused him of being a vampire. Instead of the friendly laugh he expected his best friend screamed terrible things and murdered his family. Tal could only do one thing. (Tal was also, evidently, a sick blood-drinking freak.)
So he became known across the land for his glorious deeds and 126 kills (sixty cave fish men). He was given a quest by the lady of the castle to slay a great titan. Tal accepted. He gathered a great band of warriors and has spent days trekking across harsh wastes, fending off Rhinoceroses, and feeding on his companions in their sleep.
He was ambushed by kobolds. They killed his companions but one, and he escaped.
Now he has nervous tissue damage; can't breath, grasp, or walk.
DwarfTherapist, as far as I can tell, doesn't work with .07. DFHack doesn't seem to have a way to fix him.
Is there any power on this/that/theother earth that can keep this thing alive?

DF Modding / book making
« on: February 21, 2012, 03:50:04 pm »
I looked (briefly) but didn't find an answer from searching.
I have a building make a book. Right now the reaction looks like
Code: [Select]
[REACTION:MAKE_BOOK]
        [NAME:write a book]
        [BUILDING:DESK:CUSTOM_b]
        [REAGENT:wood:1:WOOD:NONE:NONE:NONE]
        [PRODUCT:100:1:BOOK:NONE:GET_MATERIAL_FROM_REAGENT:wood:NONE]
        [SKILL:READER]
        [AUTOMATIC]
The PRODUCT tag is mostly where I'm unsure about what exactly to do.

DF Adventure Mode Discussion / Dear Armok WHY?
« on: February 18, 2012, 07:40:23 pm »
Abandoned shops make my framerate cry. I can't go inside the walls in this town without having to supper 1 frame/minute.
And the sewer...
Is there any possible way to speed this up?

Well I lived, and the lung fully healed... and the spleen... funny how one lung doesn't matter that much.


Ah. I should check out the area again for this owl/bird.

"Foothills, yes..." Unib starts scribbling drawings of unspeakable events; just as the children were taught, "Yes... But what if the others find out? We must keep secret until we're ready to unleash... Ah... show ourselves."

I would like to be on the council, as Unib Trendyforks, the dyslexic insomniac paranoid obsessive-compulsive engraver.


Glancing sideways, "Lots of pretty, smooth stone, yes, yes, good.... Pictures, too... yes...."
