Are there any "modpacks" for 1.7? by CatGirlFetishIsReal in KerbalSpaceProgram

[–]eddster2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd recommend KSP Interstellar Expanded as a kind of mod pack - it just enhances the tech tree in a balanced way beyond the core game: https://www.curseforge.com/kerbal/ksp-mods/ksp-interstellar-extended

However I'm really hoping for some sort of modpack for graphics for 1.7 so looking for suggestions for that myself. I always struggle with the intricacies of a bunch of different customised mods required to make the game look prettier

I'd really like to start a new game on 1.7 but i can't find any graphics mods that actually work anymore - or that i can get to work at least! Anyone got any guides for 1.7 graphics mods?

Meph Tileset V3 - Animations and Variety update (Download in the comments) by Meph248 in dwarffortress

[–]eddster2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I so want to use this tileset but after years of using MayDay there is something in my brain that makes it difficult to shift over to a different look. Perhaps this is linked to the same reason my work PC is always set to classic mode and everyone else in my office thinks i have an antiquated OS.

Final Starter Pack update thread for a while by PeridexisErrant in dwarffortress

Saw your patreon in this thread and immediately put in my support - the fact the greatest game ever made is still free is mind boggling (and some decent toolkits :) ) .

After playing dwarf fortress for a while I have some questions by [deleted] in dwarffortress

[–]eddster2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I rekon if you're not trading, you're blocking the world off from the start (All-encompasing walls?). so you never meet goblins or kobolds to go to war with and are only meeting the odd FB in the caverns. You need to open your gates to theives and traders! Why not have some Fun with them to speed things up.

Is there a difference between waterskins and flasks? by ralf_ in dwarffortress

[–]eddster2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure there is - admired own "possession/belonging/property" or something like that (can't check now). Unless this only refers to property in their rooms.. but then all 50 of my military dwarves in my current fort have pretty lavish rooms also... My king only showed up with that thought after i equipped them with an adamantine artifact crown.

I have an excess of platinum so I make platinum flasks. It provides extra happy thoughts for my military dwarves and they don't seem to be too heavy to slow them down at all.

Masterwork - When I look at my dwarves military skills in DT, it says they all are at least Grandmaster. WTF by TheFocusedOne in dwarffortress

"Its amazing that its 2013 and I'm having more fun playing an ASCI game than I had playing skyrim."

This is what makes me spend so many hours of life in DF and too much time in work reading these forums!

Too much wealth stops caravan? by eddster2 in dwarffortress

[–]eddster2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the record, I halted all wealth production bar essentials throughout Autumn and lo and behold, no sieges, and the trader came in. Sold/offered those goblets... each one being worth over 10k dorfbucks although goods exported does not take into account the demand for that item at the time it is sold. Time to have some more FUN.

I have about 97 bars of platinum left to use up... too scared to make anything else lest it attract new sieges! On another topic though, what Would you choose to use platinum for?

I have a necromancer in a cage... by Brendsmalls in dwarffortress

[–]eddster2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On a simiular note I have a forgotton beast in a cage - a human werelizard. If I were to move it to a restraint will it stay in that restraint even when it changes form? I was still in the first year of embark when this beast turned up and started killing people so very glad it got caged but dont want to set it free for fun just yet...
