| FYI: Justice & conviction related to stress Posted: 24 Oct 2019 07:26 AM PDT A dwarf with the trait 'respects the law' will feel repentant (a reduction in stress) after being confined, even if wrongfully convicted. This thought can push them back into negative stress from tantrum point after only a few days of confinement, and seems to work even if they're "oblivious to reality" at the time (though that part may be a bug; I'm not sure if it's actually meant to make them not react to occurrences around them, though this particular dwarf didn't feel anything after being beaten/experiencing trauma) [link] [comments] | ||
| My first raid (why. oh god, why.) Posted: 24 Oct 2019 11:27 AM PDT In the year of our Lord (Olm the pristine bean), 127, we got cocky. Months had passed. Suddenly, there was an alert. A siege. [link] [comments] | ||

| Thirty. Three. Days. Of. Dwarf: Day 24! (2019-10-24, 20:00EDT, Extra Life 2019!) Posted: 24 Oct 2019 09:03 AM PDT Started a new fort last night, so all we've excavated is the central shaft so far! If you're looking to see a fortress from the beginning, come out and join us tonight! We're sitting at about half of our charity goal now, and it still looks like we might reach it! So - what ARE we going to do for our next fortress, now that we've made a glacier work? After we put the obsidian caster up, we're looking at a fairly mature fort, and it'll be time for me to move to another one! We know we're going to do a new fort with Vettlingr's tileset to try it out on stream live. I've been wanting to do a desert fort since the last red-sand-and-green-glass traps fort, but I'm open to other suggestions! We've got about 10 days left in our charity event, and there are still dwarves unclaimed by viewers!
Next Day (Day 25) => Want to get reminders? Sign up to the event for a reminder, or follow me on Twitter @Nirruden!
What in the name of the glowing pits is this about?
It is time to return to our roots, and so we shall. Thirty. Three. Days. Of. Dwarf. Starting on 10/1 and proceeding through the Extra Life 2019 Game Day event on 11/2, I'm going to stream and teach what I know. Every. Single. Day.
I like to do things when there's more than one reason to do them:
Basically, I'll stream in the evenings most days for an hour or two. On Saturdays and Sundays, we'll generally run a little longer, but I'm going to stream every day if it means I have to get up at 3am to do it. (For the record, we've averaged 3.42 hours per day over the first week!) On 11/2, we're going to culminate with a 24-hour long livestream, as part of the Extra Life charity event. I don't use Facebook, etc. and people may want to donate to Extra Life 2019, even if they're not supporting my efforts directly. Feel free to share my donations link, or to direct people to the charity's main page.
Well, aside from helping to support my local children's hospital (good vibes, ho!) I'll be pushing out tutorial game(s) live on stream as part of the event. Your donations are a spur in that direction applied to my backside. You can even attend the event with me, since I'll be broadcasting live on my stream the whole time! ...but if that's not enough for you?
Anonymous or not, if I can make it work, everyone will know you're supporting kids that need it.
If you're not naming him something awful, it'll even happen. You're welcome to request a trade for the dwarf, if I have one suitable to match it! If we run more than one fort, donator dwarves will show up in all forts after the one where you donated!
If none are available, I'll have to use a migrant. (I won't be advising when the window closes. We call this 'Early cat catches the dwarf'. Move fast, some have already been claimed.) As above, if you donate on the first fort of our event, we'll put that same dwarf into the starting seven every fort thereafter!
Want me to embark on a reanimating evil biome with a necromancer next door? It's your call. I'll save the current stream fort, and start a new one on the spot with settings as close to your request as I can manage on the fly, and run with it until it dies or I do. If someone else flips the script on you before I finish, you can either donate again to flip if back or wait for their fort to exhaust before I resume yours. Your choice. (We call this one 'Last dwarf gets the sock.')
Some limits on this are required for sanity's sake. If you're really thinking you'd like to do this, send me a message and we'll work out the details beforehand! At some point, I'll get back to the stream fort, but for a truly generous donation, I'm 100% willing to give up some time and show off anything you'd like, live and on the spot. You can find a link to my Steam profile (which contains a list of potential games I could probably get set up for streaming) here if you're considering this. (And if it's something we can do multiplayer, we can even try that too, which would be a stream first.)
Wait....Thirty days of tutorials for Dwarf Fortress as part of a charity drive?
Thirty-three days, actually. It was the wife's idea - she suggested that you folks might like to get a newer version of my original tutorial, and that this might be a good avenue to combine hardcore Dwarf Fortress fanatics, who are already a generous and supporting community, with a charitable cause to support. I didn't have much luck finding a flaw in her reasoning, so I bit the bullet and advertised it at work, too, despite my trepidation regarding drawing personal attention there.
We'll be putting the newest version of the starter pack and Dwarf Fortress through its paces as we (attempt to) start a new tutorial series for v 0.44.12. (Note: If there's an update and it seems relatively bug free, I'll try for the newer version, but I'm aiming this at newer players, so trying to ride the cutting edge isn't really in the cards.) Past demonstrations (From v.34 to present) have included glaciers, deserts, sites with necromancer towers adjacent, as well as discussion on how to influence worldgen to get what you want. Our first one will be a more sedate embark, designed and chosen for relatively newer players, and we'll start with worldgen as though we're looking at a fresh install. Goal: My goal for "Tutorial Night" is to walk new players through an embark using the DF Starter Pack. (Explicit thanks to /u/PeridexisErrant who I admire for his dedication, which is studded with perseverance and ringed with bands of my gratitude! Without his efforts, a tutorial for installing and configuring everything for the game and its add-ons would be a sizable task unto itself. I've devoted multiple-hours of stream to demonstrating it 'the hard way'!) Along the way, I'll provide examples of the setup and tools I use to play Dwarf Fortress, as a guidepost for new players. What I'm really trying to do is give new players a reference point they can come back to on how to set up a world, embark on a site, and stand a reasonable chance of employing a fairly basic and standard design to build a workable fortress wherever they may need to start one. Stream Info: The channel rules are simple: Respect Wheaton's Law and you'll be fine. Just don't expect the content of the broadcast to be 100% suitable for children; Sorry, kids. I'm much too low-brow for a guaranteed clean broadcast. Get your parents' permission, etc etc. If you have questions you might like answered with a demonstration, and not simply a quick post in the weekly questions thread, I'm your guy. I'll do my best to demonstrate just about anything you can think up - aquifers, megaprojects and magma pistons aside. (Minecarts may get covered, but don't expect anything computational or timer based - I'm a casual player, not a dwarven mechanical engineer.) You can view the stream here, as well as on the donations page for Extra Life. Later Goals: At some point in this fortress, I'll walk players through my 'most commonly used' tools in DFHack and in the utilities that come packaged in the DF Starter Pack and how I use them to construct a simple, basic, and tightly run fortress that can support as many dwarves as my PC can haul, defend itself against all comers, and handle just about anything. I also will demonstrate Quickfort at some point for those who've never taken advantage of it! We'll certainly touch on Dwarf Therapist, and discuss how I use it to control the behavior and organization of my New players, your questions (no matter how 'silly' you may think they are) are 100% welcome, as they're the whole point to the broadcast! Join us and ask them! If you can't make it (or are not willing to brave my often vulgar displays of unsuitability) and still have questions you can't seem to figure out, post them in the DF Bi-Weekly Questions Thread for this week and I'll do my best to help you overcome your obstacles, if the expert players haven't gotten there first! (Obligatory: Yesss... Join usss... Join the Dark Side... We have cookies!)
On that note, experienced players who want to follow along are certainly welcome (and often manage to teach me a thing or two, directly or not) but the main thrust of the stream will be to help new players get over the introductory hump to start playing at a deeper level, so you may find yourself paying less attention to the pace of the stream and more attention to your fellow audience members. I do love having a few veterans show up, though, because my fortress designs always get better when I'm shown a method I've never used!
Please don't go. The children need you. Please donate if you are able. On behalf of Riley and Extra Life: Thank you, in advance, for your generosity!

| I need help making crow people human-sized Posted: 24 Oct 2019 08:29 AM PDT I'm in a edgy mood and I want to play a crow man necromancer. I'm playing with the raws of the crow man, but I'm wondering how can I give it the size of a human ?Also, how can I make a crow man able to wear human-sized armor and clothing ? I've already played with jumping spider people (quite fun, I must say) and I was out of luck when it comes to clothing... Edit : also, speaking would be huh...preferable... [link] [comments] |
