What build for win or os x has stonesense overlay working for sure? I have some builds of r3,4,5 for both systems for testing, but all of them either has no stonesense, no overlay, or it's crashing...

From the dfhack-r5 thread, I downloaded the windows-r5 Stonesense; I don't know what that's built from.    As far as I know there's no working OSX release. 

There are several things to think about regarding having twbt and stonesense together, especially if different tile sizes for text/map are used. Ideally, for better performance stonesense overlay should disable map rendering entirely when enabled.

Yeah, I can see a lot of potential for clashes there. 

Stonesense could stand to render a lot less than it currently does.  I did some quick calculations for the minimum screen-filling size, and it involves rendering at least double what it displays, and more for any non-square window.  That's probably even more than the 2D render underneath, without even considering players setting it way higher than they need to...

Probably impossible, but it's related to TwbT so who knows:

Inplement Truetype in [print_mode:standard]

Less fiddling around when you want TrueType, Text will be Text, or Rendermax.

Edit@fricy:  yes, yes I did.  Small mobile screens...

I'm aware that I'm using dfhack-r5, the problem is that the link at the top of this thread to Rendermax compiled for windows dfhack-r5 is actually compiled for r4, so I can't use it.

Am I missing something or is rendermax simply missing in dfhack r5? I can't find it in PE's pack either FWIW.

I'm looking to include it in the next starter pack release, but can't find a build for Windows dfhack-r5.  Anyone got a link?

Wait a sec. I'll upload it.

EDIT: there. Due to my error it got skipped in release of dfhack r5 (except osx version).
Few changes. I think most important that rendermax.lua is now in raws folder and is per-save.

I get the 'plugin compiled for r4, you have r5' error, and I have checked that I got it from the r5 link.

Also on that page there is now first working build of multilevel rendering version. Copy shadows.png to data/art folder. Consider it beta - works, but no settings to configure rendering, no optimisations, and likely bugs. Doesn't load on Windows with r5 for some weird reason.

I can confirm that multilevel (3.11) isn't working on Windows 7, dfhack-r5.  Error message.

The big thing stopping me from using TwbT at all though is the incompatibility with stonesense and the always-on bit.  Compatibility would be great, but I'd settle for the ability to disable the plugin to avoid crashing. 

Even some dfhack screens like advanced stocks have hardcoded max item name length and don't benefit from smaller font size.. Arrrgh!

This will probably be counted as a bug - or at least an issue to improve. I suggest reporting this as broken wherever you find it.

The pack has been updated to r61!  As usual, you can download it on DFFD. 

The big thing is an all-new DFHack tab in the launcher, where you can simply check a box to enable features like the Stonesense overlay or a multi-pack of bugfixes.  We also get Dwarf Therapist v22 (preview version), and a small tweak to the stonesense config that'll let you see the edge of the map.

Changelog: 
 - more tweaks to stonesense config; now uses 'WINDOW' follow mode instead of 'FOCUS' - you can now scroll to the map edges in any window size
 - Big update to the Starter Pack Launcher:  a configurable dfhack tab. 
    Options are: Isometric graphics, mouse controls, automatic job assignments, more automation , performance tweaks, and bugfixes (enabled by default). 
    The whole list and functions can be configured in "LNP/LNPWin.txt"
 - tweaked dfhack.init; it should now be left alone - use the launcher for toggleable options unless you know what you're doing
 - Dwarf Therapist updated to v22 (alpha, but stable)

Depending on how early in July DF2014 is released, this might be the last cutting-edge update for version 0.34.11 - but don't worry, I'm going to keep a legacy version available for those who want to play with a stable version and compatible tools.
