That's right

That is right

Either change all the pink to transparent, or flatten the image to get rid of the transparencies

unless I'm behind the times, transparent doesn't work at all yet. needs to be only pink.

Deon, do you have an exceptionally high-contrast monitor or something?  Not trying to be snide, but your sprites always have a washed-out look to them -- the colors are muted and off.  If it's a deliberate stylistic choice then my bad.

Maybe 100% contrast and brightness have something to do with it >.>

Download link is totally shot. We killed the DFFD server guys

Works graet so far, except the new follow mode needs some tweaking. Things I have in the middle of my dwarf fortress window end up in the upper right of my stonesense window, and stuff in the uipper right of my dwarf fortress window are off screen in the stonesense window.
It's still an awesome feature, though. Can't wait for the nest version.

KealGotDwarves: If you can't download it from DFFD, go to the google code page. You'll never kill that server.

Why not direct google code link then:

(Yes, it's V4, or any next version in future)

follow mode doesn't actually lock to the DF window, it jusr moves the SS window relative to the DF one. if you move eh view in SS so that it's centered, it will stay centered. (mostly)

I have it already, I was just posting because lots of people are trying to download off link on first page and getting gateway errors.

Holy crap, the locking to DF screen makes it soooo much more useful!!!

Jonas, any chance of a cavalier release sometime soon?

Step by step guide for what to do if your mod uses so many shrubs it overflows into the furniture

(1) make a new copy of objects.png, called furniture.png
(2) go into the buildings directory
(3) For each piece of furniture that is turning up as a shrub, edit the appropriate buildings.xml file, adding file="furniture.png" to the building entry, so eg for the table.xml you would change the line
<building name="Table" gameID="table">
to read
<building name="Table" gameID="table" file="furniture.png">
(4) Now that those sprites are being loaded from a different file, you can replace the versions in the original objects.png with shrub sprites.

This should work for anyone with less than 60 custom shrub types...

New version is looking great, here's some screenshots of my fort:

As an experiment in how to get community based sprite development working, here is an example of a sprite mod that changes the carpentry to the one Solifuge did a few pages back

http://stonesense.wikia.com/wiki/Spritesets/carpentry1

Any thoughts on how well this works would be appreciated (it wont be very good for anything other than buildings yet...)

I've tried both of the above - nothing seems to be working. It seems that MS paint has bested me once again. Can somebody else fix that image?

I loaded an old savegame and there was a baby in Stonesense - but none in DF on this tile or anywhere near it. Ghost baby? Or what happended there? It had a name and everything.
Maybe it was abducted long ago and DF just doesn't show it anymore if that happens, but keeps it in the memory?

Can you turn on debug mode and tell us what flags the baby has? I have a few weirdly behaving creatures with the lostLeaving tag, but hadn't quite gotten to the point of hiding em all
