DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Re: Exporting/Saving Uniform templates?
« on: May 06, 2013, 09:34:23 am »
I think people use saved macros to remake their uniforms for them each game,

its kinda tedious to do the first time but once your done make a backup of the macro and you have them saved for future use forever

Id assume that you have grown so powerful you have overcome your weakness for needing blood and now directly draw your power from death itself.

no danger room. open fort(cant wall off, bridge, or lock a dock to keep stuff from getting in your fort. one further could be no traps of a certain type or no traps at all.

some people can come up with  some crazy stuff but i think these are pretty good points to start off.

pop cap is really werid because when you set it your total pop can go well above it.

I would suggest allowing some kids earlyer on in your fort then later changeing it to 0 so no more pregnancy.

id also start off with 80 cap pop and up it as you see fit.

i have done max size without it crashing. but i was getting less then 1 fps. it would freeze get 5 fps freeze and so forth.

ppl say it has to do with memory/ram but it was only useing about 1.6gb. iam pretty sure my cpu cant handle it iam only running about 2.8ghz.



edit: the location on the map and whats happening has alot to do with it as well. ive had my df crash on glaciers with much lower embark size
also i think i might have done this with temp and weather off.

i just turned off weather temp in init did a max embark size.


it took while but it loaded. it was useing 1.6gb of memory. when i unpaused it was pretty much unplayable. iam still on ddr2 ram which isnt near as good at ddr3.

id assume laa does not help as much as people would believe

if for some reason the option is not showing on the smelter you may need to get a manager so you can assigned in from there because ive seen options dissapear before then you have to do it from job managerment screen.
