Let me know if you need help or clarification, but hopefully this helps. In /data/init/init.txt, change the print mode from '2D' to 'TWBT' Move shadows.png, transparent1px.png, and white1px into /data/art Move overrides.txt into the /data/init folder of your df Dwarf Fortress has a very steep learning curve. Get the dll file (inside the folder) and move it into the /hack/plugins folder in your df folder Dwarf Fortress is a single-player 'ASCII' game (uses letters and other symbols to represent creatures and objects) which includes both a roguelike adventure mode, and the more popular Dwarf Fortress Mode, which focuses on the creation and survival of a small dwarven settlement.

Then install the latest build (at the top) for your computer, and you're almost ready to go! Now follow these steps to get it all working with your game. If you're lazy or can't find it, go here. Go to the repo, then go to Code, then go to Releases. If you search for TWBT it'll probably direct you to the git repo, but it's a bit confusing. The most important thing is what to download. If you're starting out and you dunno which tileset to start with I highly recommend you select either the Meph tileset or the Vettlnger tileset, both of which are available with the Lazy Newb Pack, which provides an easy to use GUI to modify the game. I asked around and two people ( qeveren and Savancik) provided two important pieces of information which were nigh-impossible to find elsewhere (though correct me if I'm wrong!), so here I am to share that information in one place. Everything you ever need to know about the game is also on the official dwarf fortress wiki.

Not technically 'impossible', but it might just be easier to settle on building a bridge for now.So for the past couple of days I've wanted to use TWBT (Text Will Be Text, for those who don't know, is a plugin for dfhack to enable some nice graphical features such as multilevel rendering, but if you don't know that you're probably using the PeridexisErrant's Starter Pack and so this won't be useful for you!) but I couldn't figure out how to install and enable it. 'Surviving for 100 years' is like 'curing cancer'. Make small, simple goals that you know you can complete. The tiles are square without being distorted and the walls/tracks/bridges etc have diagonal corners instead of right angles. This is my tileset, a modified version of the vanilla curses tileset. What goals you set in the game are up to you. Dvarlin DF Staves is a runic style tilesets, Root (square), Bole (text) and Branch (script), Root and Bole have 3 weights. There is no victory, only glorious deaths. Don't dig too far down, or something scary will follow you back up. Wall off your fortress or a necromancer will make your lunch attack you.

Don't tell your dwarves to fish they don't know how to swim. The entire game acts as a massive learning experience. Kitfox and Bay 12 have no say in this, and cannot help you with this.

However, he therefore takes full legal responsibility for their distribution. Some of them are humorous, but most are a lesson. Meph's tileset and creations separate from Kitfox are his own to do with as he likes, as always. Everything from harpies to dangerous man-eating carp is everywhere. After playing this game long enough, you'll realize why dwarves don't like going outside. There are a lot of ways for dwarves to die.

Usually in my fortresses, I use them to store large quantities of. Starvation, riots, goblins raiders stealing your babies, goblin war parties stealing your lives, elephants, vampires, werewolves, werebears, werebadgers, carp, digging into an aquifer, digging into lava, digging into the nesting area of a Forgotten Beast, selling wood to hippies, insanity, drowning in knee-deep water, and being attacked by your own dismembered finger. In the current version of Dwarf Fortress (0.47.04), there are barrels that your dwarves can use to store food, water, seeds, etc.
