Daveralph - thanks, I'll fix that for the next version. 

SerpenteDiBuio - it's using the square tileset, which is a little larger (you're probably comparing 16x16 to 8x12).  You can edit d_init.txt to point to the classic tiles, which are included.  I think in the next version I'll split out ASCII (default) and ASCII (square) for clarity.

I wouldn't be surprised if I'm missing something, and I'm having an issue with this. I just downloaded it for the first time, and when I attempt to use the .jar launcher, it crashes out immediately with the following error:

That' an issue with the launcher, not strictly speaking the pack.  You should have a file called "lnp.yaml" in the LNP folder; this is what configures the launcher and so it crashes without it.

Alright, fair enough. Am I reading correctly that it's looking for lnp.yaml in the system32 folder? The file is present in the pack.

The file is present in the pack.

Then it should be working; this is the kind off bug that has me still including the old GUI - it still works almost as well (slightly less configurable for me) and is sometimes a little more stable.  Sorry I can't help more :|

Could you make it so that changing the graphics does not change the settings controlled by the Newb pack buttons, like sound, weather, save controls and others? Presumably that'd mean resetting those features after the graphics packs change them.

I can't, as it's a function of the LNP GUI which is under development by Dricus.  There are plans to avoid having the settings reset every time, but unless someone does that it could be a while. 

Until then, I've manually gone through and ensured that at least the various packs reset to the same settings, instead of wildly different defaults they give without editing...

I'm having some issues. Whenever I try to install a tileset included with the pack, It just says that it's unable to delete the default graphics.

Ptw. The Lazy Newb Pack is essential! Thanks for your contributions to the mountainhome, comrade.

Hi guys,

Really enjoying the Lazy Newb Pack! It's nice to have everything in one place!

I'm having an issue with LNP though, and I can't seem to work it out. I am guessing it's related to the graphics pack, but it doesn't go away when I switch packs.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)
As you can see in the spoilered image, I am getting huge black lines after all text. These black lines overwrite other information frequently. In this screen shot, it's only killing a couple parenthesis, but it also overwrites critical information (such as in the screen where you choose what animals should be in a particular pasture, it overwrites the [!!!]...). The black lines appear to be the same length as the text written.

My graphics pack is not a default LNP. I adjusted phoebus to my liking and installed that. However, this problem was occurring with the default LNP graphics packs too.

Any thoughts on why this is happening? I'd really like to fix it, and keep running with LNP!

System specs:
64-bit Win7
LNP downloaded from DFFD just two days ago (v0.5.3-SNAPSHOT)
Current Phoebus graphics pack.

You can turn off True type fonts, which can be done in the LNP GUI. That'll fix that, but make text use the tileset. Some problems with individual charters being obscured for no apparent reason can also be fixed simply by turing true type fonts on and off (by pressing F11).

It seems that "save game configuration" in the launcher does nothing, since the settings reset to default after each time I open the launcher.

I am having the exact same problem. Here's the error message:
!   C:\Users\(Redacted for privacy purposes)\PeridexisErrant LNP r41.zip: Unexpected end of archive
I'm using windows 7 and WinRAR.

EDIT: I'm a moron. Getting 7Zip now.

EDIT 2: EDIT HARDER: Well, not an archiver problem, still didn't work with 7Zip.
