are those floor constructed, or smoothed?

if they are constructed, could you send over the save file? thanks.

Oh, probably should have specified plating. It's a thing where... say I had a malachite floor, I'd build a constructed floor on it in marble, demolish and be left with rough marble that I'd then smooth and, if I wanted to, engrave. I always assumed it was a deliberate method put in by Toady - you can't, say, turn shale into marble or marble into shale, but you can turn orthoclause into either.

In any case, examining it with k simply shows it as a smoothed marble floor and it colours as marble, so somehow stonesense is reading what it originally was rather than whatever the dwarf fortress renderer reads. Which is an inconsistency, which is A Bad Thing.

I'm pretty sure that's a bug in DF.

you see, stonesense transcends bugs such as that.

Noooooo, not my pretty fortress...

I'm actually quite surprised the stonesense even can report a different material than the DF renderer and information displays. Hazards of memory-scanning, I suppose.

[forsaken1111]

Yeah I think that is a display bug in DF. Its not supposed to magically change the tile material.

Hi there, I was wondering if anyone has used this with .17. I can't get it to run, nor can I find a copy of .16 anywhere to download (perhaps somebody could direct me to one?). What's my best bet? Should I wait for .17 to be supported? Or is there some other possible solution? What happens is that when I load stonesense, if just hangs on the 'connecting to DF' screen.

Thanks for any assistance you can provide.

.17 isn't supported yet.  .16 is available from the Older Versions link on the main DF page.

im looking forwards to stonesense working with .17. i want to check out some of toady's castles. also, when i get time i want to start constructing some decent adventure worthy forts.

Thanks, I totally missed that link.

I'm trying to use Stonesense and have read most of this thread and others elsewhere and I still have the same problem.

Stuck at "Connecting to DF..."

I'm using DF 31.16
The most recent build of Stonesense.
I'm running both programs in Administrator mode.
I've tried activating Stonesense at various times, (when I first start up DF, after the world is built, after I embark) no good.

Any help would be appreciated.

[Stormchild]

You should run stonesense once you have successfully loaded a game anyway.

You already grabbed the latest memory.xml too I suppose ? (link is somewhere in a spoiler tag in OP) That replaces the memory.xml found in stonesense directory and helped me a few times.

Also, don't forget to put your stonesense directory inside your DF directory, of course.

If you have done all that, well, I don't know.

[Rose]

don't forget to put your stonesense directory inside your DF directory, of course.

This is just plain wrong.

Well, maybe it's not necessary then, but it works for me.

In my DF directory, I have sub-directories for Stonesense, Therapist, soundsense... they all work for 31.16.

My bad, I must have it confused with another mod.

[Rose]

stonesense isn't a mod, per se, and doesn't care where it, or stonesense, are.

[Stormchild]

True true, it's not really a mod but a separate program, my bad !

Any idea about when support for 0.17 might be made available. I'm running an LP on another site, and one of the problems I foolishly didn't anticipate is people unfamiliar to DF having a large amount of difficult deciphering each screenshot. Stonesense would probably help a lot with that, since it's easier to understand at a first glance than ASCII graphics.
