{{For/see|user-created graphic sets|[[Graphics set repository]]}}
{{av}}
{{Mod}}

A character set, or simply [[tilesets|tileset]], is an image in BMP or PNG format that contains the 256 different tiles, corresponding to the [[Main:Character table|IBM Code Page 437]] (sometimes called Extended ASCII). They are used to display the text elements in graphics mode and everything in ASCII mode. This page serves as a repository for custom tilesets made by users, including instructions on how to install them.

==Background==

The default tilesets (640×300 and 800×600) render 8×12 and 10×12 characters respectively, with majuscule latin letters occupying a 7×9 box, and appear broadly similar to the IBM MDA font based on the shape of the "0", "g", and "f" characters (but with slight differences including the "0", "W", and "y"). The exact origin of the DF font is unknown.

==Installation==

{{TipBox|#fb0|float=center|'''Currently, using some tilesets can cause the lower and right edges of the screen to not react to the mouse.'''{{bug|13462}} This is dependent on size; the 8×12 and 10×12 that come with the game are fine, but the 16×16 is not. Maximizing the window or [[Settings|setting]] the game to fullscreen may avoid this.}}
Other issues that can appear when using a different tileset:
* In graphics mode, the minimap frame will scale to the tileset, but the minimap image will not.
* In graphics mode, using a tileset with a different aspect ratio will stretch UI elements.
* In graphics mode, some UI elements do not scale to the tileset.
* In either mode, and even with the default tileset at some scales and game display sizes, some menus may not have enough space to display all elements; the [[Noble#Menu|Nobles menu]] especially.

To use a specific tileset with ''Dwarf Fortress'', you must perform the following steps:

# Download the tileset to your computer. Each tileset is just an image, so there is no separate download link. ('''Right-Click''' on the tileset image and '''Save-As'''.) Alternatively, export a BMP from [https://github.com/viler-int10h/Fontraption Fontraption].
# If necessary, convert the tileset to the correct image format for the version of DF you are using:
## Under '''ANY''' circumstances, you '''MUST NOT''' just change the extension to .bmp or .png; you '''MUST''' use a program like MS Paint to save it properly.
## For ''[[40d:Release information/0.28.181.40d|DF 0.28.181.40d]] or older:'' open the file in an image editor and save it as a '''24-bit bitmap''' (BMP) if it isn't already in that format.
## For ''[[v0.31:Release information/0.31.01|DF 0.31.01]] or newer:'' open the file in an image editor and save it as a '''PNG''' with ''transparency'' if it isn't already in that format.
# Move or copy the file to the DF art directory ({{tt|data/art}}), which is in the game installation folder.
## Alternatively, depending on the the [[Settings#Portable_mode|portable mode setting]], files in the ''Local User''{{tt|/data/art}} folder will override the files in the installation folder.
# Edit the {{tt|data/init/init_default.txt}} file to specify the tileset file to use. There are three lines that can be changed:
## '''[FONT:''<filename>'']''' — the tileset for a windowed display.
## '''[FULLFONT:''<filename>'']''' — the tileset for a full-screen display.
## '''[BASIC_FONT:''<filename>'']''' — the tileset for initial loading and menu display.
## All three can be set to the same file. In fact, setting them to different files can give unexpected results.
## Once you have made the changes you need to remember to save the file.
# If the selected tileset requires modifications to the [[Raw]]s, you will have to make those edits. What those changes are will depend on the tileset itself, and may only be valid for older versions. Likewise, some tilesets may suggest changes to {{tt|d_init.txt}}, such as {{tt|[PILLAR_TILE:255]}}, but those options, sadly, no longer exist.

Once the file is saved and the required changes are made, you are ready to play DF with your new tileset! The game does not save these FONT options in {{tt|prefs/init.txt}}, so adding them there will only be temporary.

Monoscii Lite is superior in every way, the information is denser, crisper and cleaner. pUrists will finally be one step closer to the most pUrist DF possible.

Changed most text characters as well as some others to 4x4 with blackspace to avoid tiling. Most characters have been revised to be spaced out to be more distinguishable in such a small set. After seeing the dev update earlier today about increasing your view size I decided to create this small font. This has been built completely from scratch, mostly while at work today. I may be making a shaded version in the future. The first image to the right is from the Abbeyverse succession game.

Updated 11/12/07 to de-fuzz uppercase letters, added serifs and clarified lowercase letters, made horizontal spacing consistent throughout character set, fixed one error in the double horizontal-left-right, single-vertical-up-down character, made exclamation points consistent, thinned out question mark and inverse question mark, sharpened sideways stemless arrows, clarified international characters, and clarified some Greek letters. Since v2.0: fixed 'i' 'g', fixed Yen symbol, fixed smiley 0x01 to not have an extra line to its right, lowered the period and colon characters, fixed position of 'x'. Thanks to Markavian for ideas on how to improve the font, as well as an occasional character glyph.

|comments=The "full size" version of Potash. I insist on using a square font to maintain sanity when judging sizes and distances, but I'm not a fan of how text usually looks with square glyphs -- the letters are either too wide, or spaced too far apart. I've tried balance those two flaws against each other as much as possible, and I think this font is very readable as a result. Nearly all the 10×10 glyphs have empty borders on all four sides, to prevent confusing (or just ugly) connections between adjacent tiles.

|comments=Built from scratch, this ASCII tileset is made with two common 16:10 resolutions in mind. The odd tile size fills the above resolutions without artifacts and it gives an advantage in design, making for sharp features and equal spacing between characters. The manual anti-aliasing gives the set a nice and clean look. Transparent PNG support is needed for this one.

|comments=Unsatisfied with any existing tileset, I decided to go about creating my own. Since I can't create from scratch, I had to take tiles from other tilesets and modify them, in an evolution-like manner, until they became how I wanted them. Since most are dramatically different from the tileset I took them from, I believe I can call them original. In the raws, change the tag [TILE:'U'] for humans to [TILE:172]. This changes both the image and corpse of humans to a unique image, which creature graphics cannot do. The elves also get a different tile, [TILE:171]. I plan to make a separate goblin symbol. If you use it and like it, please leave a message for at [[User talk:Savok|my talk page]] or at [http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=201 the DFFD page].

These tilesets require modified [[raws]] to work properly. Specifically, the tile numbers assigned to some objects (critters, stones, plants) need to be changed and accented characters usually need to be removed from all languages.

So my first try was to apply a solid background to all tiles of Talryth square tileset ( except few ones ), but it came out looking like a bunch of vermin swimming in a goblin's vomit... anyway I tried further and began to experiment with different base tilesets and finally made my own, using elements from tilesets of other authors ( mainly Tocky's one, big thanks to him! ). Then I spotted Alexander's Jolly Bastion and took some ideas from him ( big thanks to Alexander too! ) like sky tiles and color. Then I applied Lee's Natural Color Scheme with modified "BLACK" value and here it is! Grim Fortress. It is pretty dark, kinda foggy and I think the name "Grim Fortress" fits well.

I also suggest you shift some items to other icons, such as the coniferous trees (change Pine, Cedar, Larch from 024 to 147), the turtle (change 15 to 151), and Quarry Bush leaves (change from 006 to 003).
V2 now with new graphics for walls and liquids, as well as some other tweaks here and there and a first attempt at using dual-color sprites using a cyan base instead of simple greyscale. (Right now implemented for beds, wood and statues.)

Updated new glyphs to be more consistent with the Fixedsys style. - v2.1 - update a few more glyphs, namely the integral, the infinity symbol, and the spade, and a few others I'm forgetting. - v2.2 - update the club and spade, and the music notes - v2.3 - fix the fact that 0xF9 and 0xFA were inadvertently swapped.

This font is actually different from the 8x14 version in that 20 characters have been replaced with the original MDA wide versions. These 'extra' wide characters are sandwiched in between the end of the 8x14 and beginning of the 8×8 font in the EGA BIOS ROM. The changed characters, in ASCII order, are: arrow-left-and-right, '"', '+', '-', 'M', 'T', 'V', 'W', 'X', 'Y', 'Z', 'm', 'v', 'w', 'ae', cent sign, yen, peseta, plus-minus, and division sign. Other than these characters, all characters are the same, with rightmost-row duplicated on the C and D rows like the MDA (though I don't actually know if this is technically correct).

|comments=Designed for fullscreen. Inspired by Herrbdog's tileset, I created a shaded tileset targeting the default fullscreen 800x600 resolution. Basicaly, you have the exact same "curses" default tileset but with some shading done to the lower right of each letters and items. I've left alone everything which was related to mining or was meant to be plain, for example the smoothered tiles and the plain tiles in the demo. The reason behind that is that I didn't find much logic to have those graphics shaded as they could possibly connect on any direction on the screen, which would make the shading a little strange. Please note that this tileset is only a "beta". I might work on it again if there is enough people who like it and would like improvements.

Qazwsxplm: Added my Minecraft-ish tileset

{{Mod}}

A character set, or simply [[tilesets|tileset]], is an image in BMP or PNG format that contains the 256 different tiles, corresponding to the [[Main:Character table|IBM Code Page 437]] (sometimes called Extended ASCII). They are used to display the text elements in graphics mode and everything in ASCII mode. This page serves as a repository for custom tilesets made by users, including instructions on how to install them.

==Background==

The default tilesets (640×300 and 800×600) render 8×12 and 10×12 characters respectively, with majuscule latin letters occupying a 7×9 box, and appear broadly similar to the IBM MDA font based on the shape of the "0", "g", and "f" characters (but with slight differences including the "0", "W", and "y"). The exact origin of the DF font is unknown.

==Installation==

{{TipBox|#fb0|float=center|'''Currently, using some tilesets can cause the lower and right edges of the screen to not react to the mouse.'''{{bug|13462}} This is dependent on size; the 8×12 and 10×12 that come with the game are fine, but the 16×16 is not. Maximizing the window or [[Settings|setting]] the game to fullscreen may avoid this.}}
Other issues that can appear when using a different tileset:
* In graphics mode, the minimap frame will scale to the tileset, but the minimap image will not.
* In graphics mode, using a tileset with a different aspect ratio will stretch UI elements.
* In graphics mode, some UI elements do not scale to the tileset.
* In either mode, and even with the default tileset at some scales and game display sizes, some menus may not have enough space to display all elements; the [[Noble#Menu|Nobles menu]] especially.

To use a specific tileset with ''Dwarf Fortress'', you must perform the following steps:

# Download the tileset to your computer. Each tileset is just an image, so there is no separate download link. ('''Right-Click''' on the tileset image and '''Save-As'''.) Alternatively, export a BMP from [https://github.com/viler-int10h/Fontraption Fontraption].
# If necessary, convert the tileset to the correct image format for the version of DF you are using:
## Under '''ANY''' circumstances, you '''MUST NOT''' just change the extension to .bmp or .png; you '''MUST''' use a program like MS Paint to save it properly.
## For ''[[40d:Release information/0.28.181.40d|DF 0.28.181.40d]] or older:'' open the file in an image editor and save it as a '''24-bit bitmap''' (BMP) if it isn't already in that format.
## For ''[[v0.31:Release information/0.31.01|DF 0.31.01]] or newer:'' open the file in an image editor and save it as a '''PNG''' with ''transparency'' if it isn't already in that format.
# Move or copy the file to the DF art directory ({{tt|data/art}}), which is in the game installation folder.
## Alternatively, depending on the the [[Settings#Portable_mode|portable mode setting]], files in the ''Local User''{{tt|/data/art}} folder will override the files in the installation folder.
# Edit the {{tt|data/init/init_default.txt}} file to specify the tileset file to use. There are three lines that can be changed:
## '''[FONT:''<filename>'']''' — the tileset for a windowed display.
## '''[FULLFONT:''<filename>'']''' — the tileset for a full-screen display.
## '''[BASIC_FONT:''<filename>'']''' — the tileset for initial loading and menu display.
## All three can be set to the same file. In fact, setting them to different files can give unexpected results.
## Once you have made the changes you need to remember to save the file.
# If the selected tileset requires modifications to the [[Raw]]s, you will have to make those edits. What those changes are will depend on the tileset itself, and may only be valid for older versions. Likewise, some tilesets may suggest changes to {{tt|d_init.txt}}, such as {{tt|[PILLAR_TILE:255]}}, but those options, sadly, no longer exist.

Once the file is saved and the required changes are made, you are ready to play DF with your new tileset! The game does not save these FONT options in {{tt|prefs/init.txt}}, so adding them there will only be temporary.

|comments=A large 257x257 DFMA world gen map can be found [http://mkv25.net/dfma/map-3278-5x5largeworldmap here.]Updated 08/06/08. Changed most text characters as well as some others to 4x4 with blackspace to avoid tiling. Most characters have been revised to be spaced out to be more distinguishable in such a small set. After seeing the dev update earlier today about increasing your view size I decided to create this small font. This has been built completely from scratch, mostly while at work today. I may be making a shaded version in the future. The first image to the right is from the Abbeyverse succession game.

Updated 11/12/07 to de-fuzz uppercase letters, added serifs and clarified lowercase letters, made horizontal spacing consistent throughout character set, fixed one error in the double horizontal-left-right, single-vertical-up-down character, made exclamation points consistent, thinned out question mark and inverse question mark, sharpened sideways stemless arrows, clarified international characters, and clarified some Greek letters. Since v2.0: fixed 'i' 'g', fixed Yen symbol, fixed smiley 0x01 to not have an extra line to its right, lowered the period and colon characters, fixed position of 'x'. Thanks to Markavian for ideas on how to improve the font, as well as an occasional character glyph.

I intended to make a 10×10 version of Pastiche, but I had to make countless little changes to maintain visual consistency between the two sizes. I finally gave up, called it a new font, and changed some more stuff just because! Like Pastiche, Potash is a pure ASCII/CP437 font, suitable for use outside of ''Dwarf Fortress'' should you happen to find yourself stuck in 1985.

|comments=The "full size" version of Potash. I insist on using a square font to maintain sanity when judging sizes and distances, but I'm not a fan of how text usually looks with square glyphs -- the letters are either too wide, or spaced too far apart. I've tried balance those two flaws against each other as much as possible, and I think this font is very readable as a result. Nearly all the 10×10 glyphs have empty borders on all four sides, to prevent confusing (or just ugly) connections between adjacent tiles.

|comments=Much like [[Tileset_repository#Hanuman|Hanuman's conversion]], this is based on the default curses_640x300 tileset, converted to 12x12. There are no significant modifications to the tiles, smoothing, etc - just some cosmetic changes mostly to take advantage of 4 extra horizontal pixels. For people who like the original tileset's look and size but want a square version of it.

|comments=Similar to [[Tileset_repository#Alloy|Alloy's conversion]], this is based on the default curses_800x600 tileset, converted to 12x12. I wrote a GIMP python plugin to add padding to bring each tile up to the required size, and then I manually tidied up the places where the images no longer went all the way to the edge of the tile. This ensures that the positioning of each image within each tile stays exactly the same as in the original tileset, but with a single pixel column added on both sides of the tile to bring it up to size. For people who like the 800x600 original tileset's look and size but want a square version of it.

(This tileset is not entirely ASCII; I changed the equals sign to a pattern, so that stockpiles would look the way I like.)

|comments=Unsatisfied with any existing tileset, I decided to go about creating my own. Since I can't create from scratch, I had to take tiles from other tilesets and modify them, in an evolution-like manner, until they became how I wanted them. Since most are dramatically different from the tileset I took them from, I believe I can call them original. In the raws, change the tag [TILE:'U'] for humans to [TILE:172]. This changes both the image and corpse of humans to a unique image, which creature graphics cannot do. The elves also get a different tile, [TILE:171]. I plan to make a separate goblin symbol. If you use it and like it, please leave a message for at [[User talk:Savok|my talk page]] or at [http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=201 the DFFD page]. This will greatly speed progress, since I won't be doing it just for myself. Note: The [http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=201 DFFD version] is updated more frequently and has the changelist.

It's not a problem that comes up often, and it still doesn't look that bad, but I'll get to it eventually.

Then I spotted Alexander's Jolly Bastion and took some ideas from him ( big thanks to Alexander too! ) like sky tiles and color. Then I applied Lee's Natural Color Scheme with modified "BLACK" value and here it is! Grim Fortress. It is pretty dark, kinda foggy and I think the name "Grim Fortress" fits well.

|comments=This is a modified version of Mike Mayday's/Herrbdog's tileset. It has a more textured feel to the walls and makes heavy use of the new transparency features to make some of the tiles a little more dynamic. You can view a preview map [http://mkv25.net/dfma/map-7000-dragonskull here]. I recommend changing the sky settings in the init.txt file to [SKY:249:1:0:0] for a more natural look.

Update June 11, 2010: Updated to work with the 31.xx versions of Mike Mayday's set. It will probably not look right using it with vanilla Dwarf Fortress.

|comments=This is a 16x16 tileset based on Redjack and Flying Mage sets (and possible tiles taken from others that I've since lost track of - apologies). Some tiles are original or have been tweaked, mainly to provide a much more subtle background than most. A completely new character set is used to improve legibility, tweaked and anti-aliased for dark backgrounds.

|comments=Designed for fullscreen. Inspired by Herrbdog's tileset, I created a shaded tileset targeting the default fullscreen 800x600 resolution. Basicaly, you have the exact same "curses" default tileset but with some shading done to the lower right of each letters and items. I've left alone everything which was related to mining or was meant to be plain, for example the smoothered tiles and the plain tiles in the demo. The reason behind that is that I didn't find much logic to have those graphics shaded as they could possibly connect on any direction on the screen, which would make the shading a little strange. Please note that this tileset is only a "beta". I might work on it again if there is enough people who like it and would like improvements.

I added some stuff (some original, some ideas taken from others tilesets). Basically I try to avoid symbols that are often seen in menus, etc. The main "problem" is the bag, because its the male symbol, but it was too good looking to not put it ;) Hope you enjoy :) . . .

Qazwsxplm: damn typo

<noinclude>

{{D for Dwarf}}

This is the list of quotes which appear at the top of the wiki's [[Main Page]]. Many of them are musings from the developer notes, while others are forum posts made by ''DF'' players or simply anonymous game-related statements. Feel free to add any quotes you find particularly amusing or interesting.

To add a quote to this list, place it on its own line above the last line.

"Didn't you read the manual? He he he he... the manual... ..." — [[Toady One]]
"[B]oats are the enemy of [[tile]]s. And [[tile]]s are the enemy of boats." — [[Toady One]]
"I went through and fixed a few places where forbidden/on fire weren't being respected for next time. Burning milkable creatures were still a problem for example." — [[Toady One]]
The cyclops I was quested to kill had a thousand year history of badassery, and all of that without the leg it lost in the Year 3 (a dwarf bit it off... I should probably deal with that). — [[Toady One]]
"Stopped people from giving quests to kill themselves." — [[Toady One]]
"Got rid of world gen crash during succession after [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AdQ3JDLlmPI death of prolific long-standing position holders with inbred descendants]" — [[Toady One]]

"I had to leave just before I tested the dwarf with the boiling gold [[Creature token#BLOOD|blood]]." — [[Toady One|Toady the Great One]]
There was kind of a violent explosion of boiling human blood when I was testing a human vs a magma man in the arena... it was a little weird, but I guess that's okay. — [[Toady One]]
The zombies in a necromancer's tower became suspicious after the necromancer failed to age — [[Toady One]]
I'd have to look back to see if it wants the physical or metaphysical id on the corpse. — [[Toady One]]
I also got started on [[Jump|jumping]]. My first jump was off by a factor of 100, so I flew against a cliff and blew apart. I'm still working on it. — [[Toady One]]
The king of my dwarves appointed a visiting merchant's yak as the general of the army while I was trading. — [[Toady One]]
Most of yesterday I spent trying to be robbed by bandits, but they kept looking away from me and forgetting I was there. — [[Toady One]]
Today's success was to have a crying mother spit on me and call me a murderer. — [[Toady One]]
Stopped dwarves from trying to clean their own missing or internal body parts. — [[Toady One]]
Stopped zombies from interrupting your sleep to ask if they can help you with something. — [[Toady One]]
"Stopped aerial births." — [[Toady One]]
I had a dwarven hero try to kill a bronze colossus seven times, and each time he lost.... After the third duel, he began worshipping his enemy. — [[Toady One]]
I also grabbed somebody's exposed guts and did the only thing you can do with them currently, which is pinch them. — [[Toady One]]
The dabbling surgeon moved between repairing the compound fracture and trying to stop bleeding from malpractice. — [[Toady One]]
The poor thing died with the message "[[Temperature|<name> has condensed.]]" — [[Toady One]]
In addition, Atheli devoured three cows, four horses, five mules, a donkey, six dogs, two cats, and a rhesus macaque and fox while tormenting the elves. — [[Toady One]]
The [[titan]] was given a position in their pantheon, though it would still show up every few years to kick down somebody's house. — [[Toady One]]
Large animals can put an unskilled [[gelder]] in the hospital. — [[Toady One]]
I have my little invisible [[Labor|help-wanted ads]] for [the dwarves] to look through now, followed by a little invisible pick-best-applicants procedure. — [[Toady One]]
It seems I've just delivered you into the arms of crashing and despair. — [[Toady One]]
[[Scamps]] added two lines of code today. They didn't compile. — [[Toady One]]
The crash happened when the night creature tried to come up with things to say to potential shoppers. — [[Toady One]]
Stopped cats from dying of alcohol poisoning [https://dwarffortressbugtracker.com/view.php?id=9195 after walking over damp tavern floors and cleaning themselves.] — [[Toady One]]
I filled my fortress's [[temple]] with [[statue]]s and tantruming dwarves to test out the desecration code. — [[Toady One]]
These [[Agent|secret agents]] are overdoing it... "What can you tell me about yourself?" "Me? Who's that? I don't know myself." — [[Toady One]]
There's a cost to this [[Magic|movement]], and the cost is, 'how much do I value my blood? — [[Toady One]]
It's still a shock. People are playing a [[Tileset|text game]]. That's weird. — [[Toady One]]
An impressionable child, she inherited the goblin ethics of [[personality value|valuing]] power over others and her personal dream is to take over the world. I'm sure it'll be fine. — [[Toady One]]
I've got a fort that has an export industry centered entirely around little commemorative [[dacite]] figurines of the starting seven dwarves in different poses. Eventually we'll have to make the merchants more discerning — [[Toady One]]
"If a sieging army wants to talk, there's an initial petition to arrange a parley, which is not delivered physically — they hang back outside in relative safety, since you people have a [[Stupid dwarf trick|tendency]] to drop [[magma]] on things." — [[Toady One]]
My imprisoned expedition leader just walked home while still considered a prisoner due to some erroneous travel code exclusive to position holders. — [[Toady One]]
If your vision of dwarves is less about crafting in the mountains, and more about a lone dwarf descending from the hills to attack a village with a pack of a dozen hounds, your vision is now a reality. That's how I tested it, anyway. Five of the dogs were struck down, but the humans will now think twice about whatever it was they were thinking about, that's for sure. — [[Toady One]]
Uzol had orders, though, and he followed them to the letter. He broke into the temple and brought me back the relic... now I guess I have a save if I want to test being invaded by angry humans. — [[Toady One]]
"...go to reclaim artifacts that were either stolen by kobolds or something, or maybe weren't yours to begin with, and you can be bad dwarves. Start some shit." — [[Toady One]]
Some uncommon situations have become hard to debug with a test adventurer, so world debug mode can now manifest the cursor as an adventurer. Lots of "Hello. My name is Manifestation. Why are you traveling?" today. They don't notice the cursor human is clothing-free yet. — [[Toady One]]
I used my debug power to manifest as the Manifestation, holding the quest crossbow, which I immediately handed over. When I asked the quester about it, he said "An unknown creature has given an unknown creature <correct artifact name>. I don't care one way or another." — [[Toady One]]
Animals no longer become distracted from being unable to drink if they've experienced trauma, or from being unable to worship gods they shouldn't have been worshiping in the first place... — [[Toady One]]
Dropping a boulder on somebody and then leaving my dwarves unattended outside with nothing to do for a year resulted in tantrums, depression and oblivious wandering, so it seems to be working (...) I wasn't aware of their relationship status when the boulder fell; that's just how it turned out, sadly. — [[Toady One]]
Goblins are [[Immortality|meant to die]] violent deaths. — [[Toady One]][http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=1104.msg14899#msg14899]
I have some good saves I can look at and so forth, so hopefully I can pick some decent numbers if they are a problem, and if the numbers are fine, focus just on the ridiculous "scary teeth" part of it. Although I guess teeth are scary sometimes, but it takes like a whole horror movie to build up to why, and these are just random troll teeth. — [[Toady One]]
Insurrections were such a problem in sites that I had to turn them off for your fortress's holdings; we'll get back to that later. It wasn't even the insurrections, really; the dwarves were bailing on the occupation immediately because they were afraid of insurrections. — [[Toady One]]
After producing three notable poems, Zicab was murdered by a goblin armorer in the pits (who was later devoured by a giant lion, so that has a happy ending.) — [[Toady One]]
Artuk soon gave up on fighting, and became a poet like her father and grandmother, moving again to the goblin pits, where apparently all poetry in this world is written. — [[Toady One]]
For instance, a human trading company called the Present Hall was wildly successful trading various leathers and bones for crafting, and eventually had enough clout to open a branch warehouse inside a dwarf fortress for the first time. Can't resist that [[draltha]] leather. — [[Toady One]]
This turned out to be a strategic error, as two short years later, a forgotten beast obliterated the fortress, the warehouse, and killed everyone inside. So, what's the correct response? Close the destroyed branch? No, no, you stimulate the (non-existent) economy by hiring local. Forgotten beast, you're the new (ruined) warehouse administrator, congratulations! — [[Toady One]]
I've mainly been 'consolidating gains' this week (that is, finding horrible bugs and wondering how anything worked in the first place.) — [[Toady One]]
He was imprisoned in a dwarf fortress for 20 years. He might have escaped, but a hydra came and ate him and everybody else. — [[Toady One]]
I did have to fix a bug where the human and dwarven allies also ate the dead if the elves led the attack. — [[Toady One]]
I'm not actually sure why he didn't try to start a zombie horde of his own instead, but this is okay. — [[Toady One]]
Necromancers can pet their zombie animals too, and the living can try too if they are foolish. Hmm, I think a necromancer might also be able to pet their zombie humanoids, due to how it does the detection. — [[Toady One]]
I went to a shrine, rolled a tin icosahedral die and it was a bad roll and I was cursed to be a snowy owl for a week. So I flew up to a nearby rooftop and pondered tangents. — [[Toady One]]
I intentionally accepted a petition to establish a temple for the ten worshippers from the Cult of Cats, and then ignored it for an entire year. The game announced that the agreement had been abandoned, and one of my fisherdwarves that belonged to the religion cancelled their job in dismay. — [[Toady One]]
Now-corrected highlights include the game getting confused about who owned the tomb after a mummy came back from the dead, leading to the mummy's zombies sieging themselves, and two dwarven spies diligently maintaining their enemy cover identities even when they came to live in the player's fort, confusing the local soldiers and starting civil wars. — [[Toady One]]
Fixed crash involving stressed out wilderness creatures wanting to complain to priests. — [[Toady One]]
Ha ha, {{token|MAJOR_CURSE|interaction}} occurs 13 times in the code, and was the first usage hint added. MAJOR_BLESSING does not occur. Poor dwarves. — [[Toady One]]
There was a [[23a:Magic#Remnants|brief moment]] in DF history where armor had hair, swords whistled and elf arrows exploded wooden spikes inside of people. Someday we'll get back [[Magic|there]]. It's scheduled! — [[Toady One]]
[[Giant rat]]s are classic beings, of course. We also have [[large rat]]s since it felt like there needed to be extra size gradations for ratdom. — [[Toady One]]
The [[platypus]] has poisonous spurs, as in real life, which can cause painful swelling. Perhaps your fortress would benefit by allowing a [[Platypus man|platypus person]] adventurer to become a resident [[monster slayer]]? — [[Toady One]]
Generally, the large monsters should be able to do larger things. Just squishing entire bodies, or even groups of dwarves all at once. Squish. — [[Toady One]]
”He he he. Yeah, it almost looks done... alas... those who are in your teens, hold on until your twenties... those in your twenties, your thirties... others, cling to life as you are able... It should be pretty fun though.” — [[Tarn Adams]], [http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=2525.msg40940#msg40940 2004]
The were-capybara is only one of the myriad lunatic monsters that terrorize the living. — [[ThreeToe]]
If I had to pick a bird to apply to this situation, it wouldn’t be the phoenix, because nothing exploded. — [[ThreeToe]][http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=179293]
Everything is beginning to coalesce, to congeal, to coagulate. All that's left is the detritus that is required to bring us to the starting line, waiting for the crack of the pistol. What does that mean? It means that I took a creative writing class in college. — [[ThreeToe]] [http://www.bay12games.com/dwarves/#2022-07-15]

* Request: Stockpile Master List page that has a list of every stockpile type and every item type that exists within it. As far as I can tell, we don't have a single central place that tells you which item belongs in which stockpile. This is particularly challenging for items like scroll rollers - they're store in Finished Goods -> Tools. Nestboxes are also stored there, despite them acting like furniture. Display furniture is stored under Furniture -> Other Large Tools. I've always had a challenge parsing each wiki page to see which stockpile it belongs to, because the mention of the stockpile category is usually offhandedly mentioned in the middle of a paragrph, instead of an infobox. [[User:Zestylimez|Zestylimez]] ([[User talk:Zestylimez|talk]]) 16:35, 20 December 2025 (UTC)

* Request: v50's been out for nearly a year now and there is still no page on this wiki detailing what the new granular [[Difficulty]] settings do. Do we even ''know'' what they do? From what I can gather, '''Off''' stops outside enemies from entering the map (but still allows [[Intrigue]] and wildlife treated as dangerous to occur), '''Normal''' is as per usual, and '''Hard''' ensures a nonstop stream of [[Fun]] will relentlessly assault your fort, but other than that, I've no clue.

** I just added a list of all the new creatures (probably contains some errors) on the talk pages of the [[graphic set]] and [[creature]] pages.

***The admins have bots that can create the pages automatically.

Thank you! :)

Hello, I'd like to open another talk/discussion page for "Size" (http://dwarffortresswiki.org/index.php/DF2012:Size) with the following question:

Are there any combat benefits to SMALL dwarves?

On one of the pages for an older version of DF it notes that large creatures like elephants have a hard time landing a hit on small creatures like cavies. Would this alleged bonus to-dodge and/or penalty to-hit modifier translate in any meaningul way for smaller dwarves?

I'd like to open a talk page for [[DF2012_Talk:Relationships]] with the following note (two paragraphs):

The royalty section is inaccurate. I have a second-generation native-born dwarf in one of my fortresses who has a plentitude of aunts and uncles and listed maternal and paternal grandparents. I'm not sure why having those relationships is only noticed for royalty, but I think it's partially because shorter worlds mean smaller lineages and partially because most forts don't last long enough to see native-born children grow up, get married, and have children of their own. I really don't think there's any reason why extended family would be limited to royalty in any case.

Anyway, I added parents to the Types section, and also grandparents because I hadn't noticed the Royalty section. I'd add Aunts/Uncles but I'm not sure where they fall in on the list, and baby Sarvesh doesn't have any cousins yet.

Hello, I feel that [[DF2012:World_generation]] should cover what goes into history simulation, as it is obviously different to simulation in fortress mode.

** Declining per [[DF:Rule N]]. Links to [[drink]]s can be created with <nowiki>[[drink]]s</nowiki>. —[[User:Lethosor|Lethosor]] ([[User talk:Lethosor|talk]]) 01:29, 12 January 2025 (UTC)
*[[Hot tub]] should redirect to [[Magma Sea]]—not very common slang, but I've heard it consistently. [[Special:Contributions/68.56.148.200|68.56.148.200]] 06:57, 1 January 2022 (UTC)
**Do you have an example? I've never heard this. —[[User:Lethosor|Lethosor]] ([[User talk:Lethosor|talk]]) 20:14, 1 January 2022 (UTC)
*[[DF2014:Fun]] to [[DF2014:Losing]]
[[dfhack]], [[DFHack]] and [[DF2012:DFHack]] to [[Utility:DFHack]]. --[[User:Lurker|Lurker]] ([[User talk:Lurker|talk]]) 14:07, 7 August 2013 (UTC)
:Done. --[[User:Lethosor|Lethosor]] ([[User talk:Lethosor|talk]]) 17:48, 7 August 2013 (UTC)
* Page "Taming" should redirect to "DF2012:Tame" [[User:Latias1290|Latias1290]] ([[User talk:Latias1290|talk]]) 18:02, 27 August 2013 (UTC)
**[[DF2012:Tame]] is a redirect to [[DF2012:Animal trainer]]. Created [[Taming]] and [[DF2012:Taming]] as redirects. --[[User:Loci|Loci]] ([[User talk:Loci|talk]]) 19:33, 27 August 2013 (UTC)
* Page "Gcs" should redirect to [[DF2014:Giant_cave_spider]]. [[Special:Contributions/199.60.104.18|199.60.104.18]] 19:00, 1 September 2015 (UTC)
:Done. Just do it yourself next time. Just create the page and add "#REDIRECT" followed by a space and the link to the page.[[User:CLA|CLA]] ([[User talk:CLA|talk]]) 22:19, 1 September 2015 (UTC)
::The reason this page exists is because anonymous users can't create pages. —[[User:Lethosor|Lethosor]] ([[User talk:Lethosor|talk]]) 12:09, 4 September 2015 (UTC)
:::Oh, that makes sense. Should have figured that out on my own.
* [[DF2014:Combat log]] could redirect to [[DF2014:Reports]], I think it's the phrase new players will search for. [[User:Okdewit|Okdewit]] ([[User talk:Okdewit|talk]]) 18:58, 30 January 2016 (UTC)
**Done. [[User:Jwoodward48|Jwoodward48]] ([[User talk:Jwoodward48|talk]]) 00:05, 2 March 2016 (UTC)
* create redirect page "World Activation" and redirect to World_activities [[User:Untrustedlife|Untrustedlife]] ([[User talk:Untrustedlife|talk]]) 00:13, 26 July 2016 (UTC)
-- Got it done [[User:Untrustedlife|Untrustedlife]] ([[User talk:Untrustedlife|talk]]) 00:16, 26 July 2016 (UTC)
* Page [[DF2014:Guineahen]] and [[DF2014:Keet]] could redirect to [[DF2014:Guineafowl]] the same way [[DF2014:Guineacock]] does currently. [[Special:Contributions/2A01:C50E:D66A:5500:0:0:0:10|2A01:C50E:D66A:5500:0:0:0:10]] 17:43, 29 November 2017 (UTC)
* Create redirect page for "Retire", "Unretiring", and "Retiring" and redirect to "Reclaim Fortress Mode" [[User:Benderdragon|Benderdragon]] ([[User talk:Benderdragon|talk]]) 16:21, 29 June 2020 (UTC)
** Created [[Retire]]; [[Unretire]] already existed, and I'm hesitant to create redirects for the gerund forms - we don't have guidelines that specifically discourage them, but {{Rule|N}} and {{Rule|E}} are similar, and partial searches for "retir" or "unretir" should bring up the relevant pages in the search box anyway. —[[User:Lethosor|Lethosor]] ([[User talk:Lethosor|talk]]) 00:12, 30 June 2020 (UTC)
*redirect "ringleader" and potentially several other possible titles for crime bosses to [[DF2014:Boss]][[User:Rugnir|Rugnir]] ([[User talk:Rugnir|talk]]) 21:47, 13 August 2021 (UTC)
*redirect "Non-dwarf's guide to stone" to the page "Non-dwarf's guide to rock" (Confusing Titles)

* I made some nice v50.xx graphics for the FPS efficient 1x3 pump stack design, and couldn't upload them when I tried to add a new block to the page. For the moment I've uploaded them here: [https://files.jelloraptor.com/s/oiM2z3Wq94ijjwt even-z-levels], [https://files.jelloraptor.com/s/XMLzyFTq4Ca9La9 odd-z-levels], [https://files.jelloraptor.com/s/gQyk8peJZrgzRQy gimp-source]. Could someone please upload them as appropriate and add them to the pump stack page? Thanks. Also I certify that these are all my creation and that DF-wiki can use them as it wishes. {{unsigned|Jello Raptor}}
** Uploaded [[:File:Gimp-z-levels-even.gif|even]] and [[:File:Gimp-z-levels-odd.gif|odd]]. Feel free to add them where you see fit. [[User:OddballJoe|OddballJoe]] ([[User talk:OddballJoe|talk]]) 01:54, 28 January 2023 (UTC)

* Could there please be a smaller version of the "D for Dwarf" template, maybe one that leaves the text ''joke'' near a sentence, so that we don't have a big-ass banner for little one-off jokes in articles and reserve the "D for Dwarf" template for entire sections or articles? [[Special:Contributions/68.56.148.200|68.56.148.200]] 23:15, 6 December 2021 (UTC)

* Can someone include a discussion about how dwarfs choose which jobs/tasks to do if they have enabled multiple labors and there are jobs in multiple labors on the DF2012:Labor page? Is it based on which job is created first? Their skills / traits / attributes? Which labor they are highest ranked or their titled profession? This seems to be an issue in the LPs I've been watching early on when there are only the 7 starting dwarves, sometimes extending into the first migration. I know a solution is to deactivate other labors, or use burrows, but I'm still curious how it works. Thank you, [[Special:Contributions/108.243.77.185|108.243.77.185]] 03:08, 17 August 2013 (UTC)

* Hello. I wanted to know how to make the tiles uniform for the ground. I'm sure to have read somewhere once that it was possible to change the tiles to be all "." (I am currently searching for a Goblin Snatcher for a while now ^^). I searched for "ground" what has yielded me a link to above ground page. There was no link there. Could make one to the relevant article or indicate the settings to do please? [[Special:Contributions/31.164.176.33|31.164.176.33]] 20:04, 23 September 2013 (UTC)

* Hi, im new and just want to start translation of the wiki into german. im really into this game and i guess i still could learn a shitload of new stuff by doing this. AND there would maybe be more players around if and when i/we translate. not every german is fluent in english. -f4nt4sy [[User:F4nt4sy|F4nt4sy]] ([[User talk:F4nt4sy|talk]]) 15:01, 1 March 2014 (UTC)
:See [[DF:Centralized Discussion/Translating the wiki|here]]. It's been suggested before, but it's been hard to set something up on this wiki. —[[User:Lethosor|Lethosor]] ([[User talk:Lethosor|talk]]) 03:22, 2 March 2014 (UTC)

* I'd like to create a page under the centralized discussion for a proposal of subnamespaces for stuff like creatures, skills, etc. under a specific version. Stuff like DF2014:Rat becoming DF2014:Creatures:Rat. I'm not sure if the software allows this, but I thought I'd say it anyway.

* I'd like to add an image of the 'animated bedroom design' section I added to bedroom design. I uploaded a short screen cast here [https://imgur.com/XIGR8Ce], but to get it to below the 2 MB limit I also converted it to a GIF here [https://imgur.com/x86h2u4]. I feel like just adding an imgur link has to be frowned upon so I didn't want to just link to it in the article. [[User:Austin|Austin]] ([[User talk:Austin|talk]]) 05:43, 3 January 2023 (UTC)

*I'd like to add 2 pictures to the water reactor page (lower level and main level), showing how to build this in the Steam DF version. Since its the first edits, I can't get it to upload without request. [[User:Thurlin05|Thurlin05]] ([[User talk:Thurlin05|talk]]) 18:26, 13 January 2023 (UTC) Thurlin05
