Do I need to do anything to import a save from a non-LNP game? Pardon me if this has already been asked and answered.

No, but don't try to save graphics in new saves or bad things might happen :-X

Hey all,

Is there an easy way to use LNP with other mods? Deon's Genesis mod specfically. I would love to be able to use the LNP to edit the settings for Genesis.

Any advice?

yes. just set graphics to ascii or whatever graphics pack he's using. then copy the raws. done!

you can launch DF from the LNP by the way.

Actually I wouldn't touch the graphical installer AT ALL if you use Deons, or any other pre-installed mod.

Just delete the contents inside the Dwarf Fortress folder and replace it with the stuff from the Genesis folder (so that Dwarf Fortress.exe is still under the Dwarf Fortress folder). It should automatically copy embark and world generation profiles when you run Lazy Newb Pack. There should be no problem changing settings and init stuff, or running utilities. Just don't revert to default settings, or try to install a graphics pack (it would overwrite the mod).

actually when installing, I suggest changing graphics to ascii/phoebus first (which is he using? forgot)

then copy raws. this will make sure nothing looks wierd.

No you don't understand, Deon's mod is pre-installed. It includes the full game AFAIK. He has specially modified graphics of his own. There is no "installing" overtop of the existing dwarf fortress included in LNP, but a complete delete-and-replace

The graphics folder is part of Dwarf Fortress.

Extrapolate, please.

I thought there was a "graphics" folder we copied stuff into from the tileset itself. Well I didn't write it.

Just go ahead and copy the raws.

I made a Lazy Newb package with Bentgirder region file already installed.  :D Let me know if there's any problems with it.

Ive been a long time watcher of dwarf fortress but always had troubles starting it.

I just wanted to say thank you for this. Since i discovered it a week ago, i haven't slept much and DF is all i think of now, lol.

It reminds me on how i was back in the 80's when playing uMoria on my friends dad's computer. This has been one of the few things that has let my mind at ease over the last year when i gave up my life to be a caretaker for my mother, and only family member left, who found out she had bone cancer and only a few years to life.

A big thanks to you, bay12 and all the others modders out there.
