Zachary Edwards
what is the correct terminology then my friend?
Cameron Taylor
DF will not be true difficult before it'll have enemies who can dig tunnels and destroy walls, like in Dungeon Keeper and Rimworld.
Jayden Powell
3rd party tool. Specifically a memory accessing interface that can be used with various plugins and tools that can interact with DF.
Xavier Walker
so it's a mod
Wyatt Rogers
this fuck you tranny
Lucas Turner
No it's not. It can be used by mods though.
Dominic Reyes
Do you consider trainers or save editors to be mods, too?
Bentley Butler
No, I consider them to be cheating.
Hunter Adams
they're cheating you fucking tranny
tranny game made by a tranny played by trannies, ugh just ugh

Brayden Jackson
Nevermind, I know what triggered the autists.
I said "DFHack" instead of "the stander set of plugins included with starter pack distributions.".
Autists.
Isaac Walker
And that's what DFhack is, a cheat tool.
Isaiah Taylor
If you don't use either the Starter Pack or LNP you are a fucking autistic NEETranny and should die already lol.
Jordan Perez
For you maybe. For me, game designers aren't perfect and sometimes a game needs 3rd party modification in order to be the best that it can be.
Jason Morgan
Its an external utility, same as legends viewer or the rapist. Mods are stuff like additional creatures or civs.
Zachary Cooper
Good thread so far.
Cameron Moore
Without MasterWorkMod by Meph PBUH, DF is a piece of shit. Meph should develop the game instead of that tranny Toadie.
Austin Torres
Why do you have to bring his sexual orientation into it?
Brody Hall
because he's a fat tranny fuck and his game is shit
Thomas Ramirez
that is a politically incorrect statement, sir!
Noah Perez
But Meph is also a tranny faggot.
Nicholas Hughes
no meph is a trap and that's totally not gay trust me im an expert on bein gay
Julian Nguyen
I heard there are gays in DF. How to make two male dwarves do anal sex between them?
Juan Baker
you need to first fabricate Anal Lube in the alchemist workshop
then your gay dwarves will randomly have gay sex with a 90% each chance to controct either >goblinAIDS >anal cancer >mega faggotry
Liam Robinson

Not even /pol/ has retards like our schizo trannyfag. Just filter his shit posts and wait for him to get bored.
Jordan Ward
204461809 actually, it's 100% japa's fault for bloating AV with bullshit it doesn't need (i.e. showing every single item on the ground, showing every single straw of grass, showing every single puke stain, etc etc).
the visualisers we had in earlier DF versions never had any problems with showing huge forts. pic related is Overseer for 0.34. it showed the entire fort without any problems, and it was toaster friendly. that's what a visualiser should aim to be. sadly, japa fell for the whole "gaudy HD texture pack for old game" aesthetic. he also developed a very special kind of hubris where he wants his visualiser to be the go-to utility for newfags who want to "play DF in 3d".
Logan Rodriguez
Poland strong, Poland can into dwarf fortress.
Julian Moore
fucked up the link
Caleb Morgan
but there are no toilets in DF for you to clean?
Cameron Murphy
I leave this shit hole for 4 months, and the tranny shitposting is still going on. This is why we can't have nice things.
Cooper Hall
Its one schizo faggot calling everyone and everything trannies.
Charles Davis
>I leave this shit hole for 4 months, and the tranny shitposting is still going on. bullshit. it didn't start until a week before 0.44 was released (mid-november), and it died down in december.
Matthew Myers
Is anyone else getting ridicoulosly shit fps? My fort only has 20 animals, 34 dwarves and little wildlife with no caverns breached and its already dipping to 30. On a damn pocket world. Used to run great up to around 180 people. Also there are weird lag spikes were it freezes and then goes. Is my computer fugged or is it dwarf?
Robert Richardson
It stopped, and has started up again just today. The same day you "came back." Interesting...
Caleb Allen
it's possibly some magma monster setting the cave flora on fire.
Connor Torres
I think it might just be how shitty the world is. It was only 15 years in because anything above 50 was 25 was extinct. I have a shit load of civs and 150 megabeast caves. No visitors and few migrants. Maybe too much shit going on out there
Jaxon Baker
Unfortunately, 3rd cavern level entire is a lake, without any ground. Map size is minimal, 1x1 tiles on world map. There are no creatures in this level, except some crundles on a mushroom cap. Is there a way to allow spawn of ground creatures? For example by constructing bridge or floor above water on a map border?
Kevin Roberts
>it didn't start until a week before 0.44 was released (mid-november) It's been going on ever since kobold posting stopped, and that was late september to early october. It was going on LONG before 0.44 dropped.
Joshua Campbell
there was periodical shitposting about gay dorfs, but the trannyposting didn't start until that FotF thread where toady answered a question about trannies too politely. that was a few weeks before the release.
Gabriel Brown
I don't remember the exact date, but yeah, more than a week before the update, definitely.
Hunter Gomez
How would one enable volcanoes to spawn in without being in super steep conical ones? Like ground level or cavern volcanoes
Connor Gutierrez
actually, DF volcanoes never have their own cones. sometimes it appears that way because they spawn on top of mountains, but the volcano itself is just a vertical shaft full of magma. if you make the volcano spawn on flat ground, it will just be a hole in the ground. at least that's my experience.
Connor Sanchez
I want to play as the last hope of a dying dwarven civilization surrounded by goblins and necromaners
How do I get a world like that?
Kayden Collins
pocket worlds. goblins always end up conquering those.
Cooper Gutierrez
wow, that render is pretty neato
Lucas Thompson
What does this general have against trannys? :o
Connor Murphy
Remember to ignore and report obvious shitposts.
Hudson Howard
>he thinks Veeky Forums has moderation in 2018 laughing jewish gook.png
Leo Ross
I've seen a thread get deleted this year for no real reason, so there's some hope.
Connor Mitchell
Tbh it probably would have ended sooner if not for the fact an user found out the person asking the question to begin with was 1. a cringy furry tranny 2. one of those Bay 12-ers who posts on FoTF, off-topic boards and threads related to the DF community, but nothing relating to the game itself.
Didn't help that when someone agreed with Toady (who himself admitted it makes no sense to have trannies, since gender differences aren't modeled beyond reproductive roles), someone else started going "hurr durr I have tranny friends who want to be dorfed" - surprised noone on there took notice and replied with "why not dwarf them as their preferred gender then".
Might as well say that this is really common to DF, and is noticable on both Bay 12 and the discord. On the boards/channels related to the game itself - fort mode, adventure mode, modding - you'll mostly see the same few regulars posting, with maybe a few new people asking questions and eventually posting more. Off-topic shit, threads about the community that noone really cares about and threads wanking about what the game could be but not helping with the issues it currently has? Suddenly you have a lot more variance in users. Almost like these people don't play the game anymore but stay around to shit up the community - off-topic boards/channels are where the vast majority of the annoying drama originates from.

Owen Ramirez
What does it matter if Toad is a Tranny? Stop shitposting about it you bigots.
Colton Lewis
Nope. This is why you set cavern openness to min 90. and cavern water to min 20 and max 35. It gives you super aesthetic caverns.
Chase Parker
Is that the only way? I prefer to play larger maps
Jason Cox
set max dwarf civ number to 1 in entity_default
Alexander Foster
This and high numbers of forgotten beasts will usually do in dwarf civilizations. The distinction between a dead and dying civ isn't handled very well by the game though, even if the only fortress is an abandoned ruin and no dwarves remain in the world the civ will sometimes carry on.
Grayson King
You can make AV show more layers with a setting or some shit.
Dylan Smith
>DF >hard
Ryder Cooper
Games don't need to be hard to be fun. Dwarf Fortress is more clunky than actually difficult.
Camden Morris
The only challenge in playing Dwarf Fortress is getting onto the autism spectrum.
Camden Green
Did you forget to brew drinks?
Juan Cooper
Dwarf Fortress is a shit game made by an autistic tranny and you need Down's Syndrome to enjoy it.
Nathaniel Harris
>Froggy is a tranny now
wew the times are a' changin
Kevin Hall
it was never hard. that was just a newfag meme.
I can't say I mind. for me it's less about challenge and more about comfy details.
Brayden Fisher
Same
Adam Taylor
Shields, nigger
Get a squad to dual wield them, if you can still do that. I don't know if Toady fixed it or not.
Luke Robinson
Their volleys looks really dangerous when they began shoot to an animal on the surface. A huge swarm of bolts.
Grayson Campbell
Can dwarves use shield along with crossbows? And will wooden shields work well?
David Parker
Lol, they leave the map after killing the animal.
Nathaniel Harris
Unlikely.
Two steel shields and decent armour will render a decently trained dwarf effectively immune to projectile weaponry, and shields don't make completely terrible weaponry.
Connor Martinez
My marksdwarves shoots excellent too, even when totally untrained.
Jose Rodriguez
The bitch tried to avoid a bolt and now is falling.
Sebastian Cook
Is there a way to set global production orders in this? As in "if less than 50 bolts in stockpile, produce x amount in any/each workshop".
Liam Clark
no
rimworld is better play that
Xavier Ramirez
There are only 12 z-levels in depth, but I gonna raise to 40.
Jayden Gray

DFHack workflow script or whatever it's called does that.

Asher Turner
Construction of the great tower of CloutCrystal has hit a roadblock. A Weresquirrel has attacked, claiming the lives of 4 workers and a war dog. These are the first fatalities during construction, but will probably not be the last. They will get proper graves, built into the tower they gave their lives to complete.
Jordan Cox
Gladiator arenas make for pretty good military training. I remember why cage traps are gud now.
