So, when I've set the child pop cap to anything, I still seem to get hordes of dwarven meatshields goblin food Meatbags children. Have I done something wrong here? Currently got it set to 10:5, yet my alst children had 50 dwarves and 23 children...

It doesn't abort in-progress pregnancies that would push you over the cap, and I think you can be thoroughly pushed over the limit by a horde of mothers all getting pregnant at once. Do you have a lot of married couples? Did you get a huge third/fourth migrant wave?

I haven't had a single birth yet - All the children come in massive waves of migrants which seem to be composed of half children, half adults. Usually there's a bit of married couples though, more so than single dwarves.

Child cap only affects new pregrencies, there's nothing you can do about the migrant children, their number will be always random when a new wave comes. Maybe a really young world has less children, but that's all I can think of.

Ah. Well, that sucks a bit, but at least it's not an issue with the pack itself then. Thanks for the info!

Now... to figure out how to give my children death the life of being kidnapped happy homes...

One possibility.

I don't understand how to upgrade to a newer version.. you said the new LNP has to be in the same folder as the old one.. so do we just over-write the files from the old version with the new ones and then run the copy script? But if I do that nothing happens?

What exactly do we have to do to upgrade?

They have to be next to each other:
  • Downloads
    • PeridexisErrant LNP r42
    • PeridexisErrant LNP r43

Then you can run the "Copy data from my old install.bat" file to copy the saves and the "User Generated Content" Folder. You'll have to migrate the settings by hand.

That's the happiness dfhack plugin. It shows you how happy your dwarfs are.

Hello,

I used to play DF with LNP. I tried to update to this new version but I am having issues running the .jar file. I get this error screen:

Code: [Select]
java.lang.IllegalStateException: Can't find LNP's configuration file!

Translation: "(El sistema no puede encontrar la ruta especificada)" = "(The system could not find the specified root)".

Any ideas on how to fix it? I already tried updating Java i have Version 7 Update 45 according to chrome (I dont remember how to check in the console).
Thank you very much and have a merry Christmas!

I kept trying and finally found a solution:

First I got it running using the console command:
Code: [Select]
java -jar "file name".jar
Then I fixed it completely by using this program (use at your own risk, it worked for me): http://johann.loefflmann.net/en/software/jarfix/index.html

I also suggest updating Java just in case before doing anything else.

Anyway, thank you and back (or starting) to game!
:)

P.S.: Any comments from someone savy are welcome, I'm a newbie on Java on anything similar.

Thx for finding a workaround to this weird bug. Your contribution is appreciated!

The pack has just been updated to r44. 

CHANGELOG:  r44
 - updated Falconne's plugins to v0.40; many new features including melt from enhanced stocks screen
 - updated Dwarf Therapist to version 20.7
 - updated manual for Dwarf Therapist
 - updated SoundSense to r43; now has a popup notification if you haven't downloaded the soundpack!

Hopefully this will be enough to tide us all over to February, since I'm camping without any computers pretty much solidly until then.  I might squeeze some posts into supply runs, but another pack update is unlikely - I may fit one into a visit home mid-Jan (as this one has, in the 16 hours in a city) but don't bet on it. 

Remember also that posting the errorlog from the launcher should go in the thread for the launcher, not here!  We know it's not finished, but until Dricus comes back nothing is happening - if it's urgent, fix the open-source yourself!
