And I know nothing's happened in like forever, but that's because classes are getting crazy near the end of the semester.

Tell me about it. I really shouldn't have slacked off in that marketing class all semester, I now have 2 case studies, 2 lesser homeworks, and a marketing plan to all get done by the 26th x_x. At least the two network security classes don't have homework at this point. Just have to worry about memorizing a few commands for security settings and getting a miniature enterprise network running in the lab. Then I can get back to posting useless drivel that no one cares about!

You can do this for demons (DEMON) and titans (TITAN), too.

Like DEMON_1, DEMON_2, DEMON_3, etc.?

Yeah, exactly.

I've been sitting on this secret for a while, mostly because of a succession game I snuck it into and didn't want to have spoiled.  But that's just about over now, so go give it a try.

As to the spider thing, Forgotten Beasts will always just be text for now. There's nothing we can do about it.

Hmm but the spiders I got weren't forgotten beasts.. I checked the wiki and it said you'll get notifications for when they appear? Didnt get one for my spideys

So it looks like the Giant Cave Spider graphic working is a 50/50 thing...?

Grats on the internship btw!

You've got to designate a chief medical dwarf in your nobles menu before you can access your health screen.

That's actually one of the first things I do after embarking. But I just realised I have to use the arrow keys to access the treatment history, etc.... No idea why I couldn't come up with that earlier.

Wow, cool stuff! Thanks!

It would be hard to decide what they should look like, though,
since it's not based on what they're actually made of...
Maybe I'll try to make some sort of generic monster sprite.
Something like the demon tile I have right now, but with colors.
Then I could make a sheet of like a hundred different color variations of it,
and it would make it look like each forgotten beast and titan was just randomly colored.

Might be cool.

I just used 'ADD_COLOR' for demons and forgotten beasts, and kept titans static.

Man, i know you said it long ago, but i gotta say this...
Congratulations on your internship...
Bethesda is one of my favorites, Fallout 3 and Elder Scrolls? Hell, I hope it'll help you grow and maybe someday we'll be proud to say we saw your early works...
Just don't forget about us and DF =D
Make us all prouder than we already are

True dat, Urist, true. dat.

Actually, my ultimate dream has always been to open an independent game studio.
For now I'm just trying to make some friends within the game development world.

But yeah, in another 10 years... keep your eyes open for Laughing Llama Productions.

I'll never buy any game from you, if you abandon your tileset though  never...ever

I've long dreamt of being involved with an independent studio also.  Doesn't have to be opened by me.

I went to high school with a Ryan Sears who now works at Bethesda.  I'm not sure if he remembers me, though.  I've tried to contact him a couple times with no luck.  If you want to wierd him out/strike up social interaction, you can tell him Chuck from South Putnam says hi.

You really should

That's the problem with games though, isn't it?

So many people want to work in a game studio, there are far more than there are jobs.. and so conditions deteriorate in an employer's market. Good luck with your ambitions, but I'm not going there.

Just working on one in my spare time instead.

I just noticed:
all my injured dwarfs (especially the crutchwalkers) are blinking at me with smoothed mudstone floor...
is this intended?
