At this point your saves still contain old raw and graphic files. To upgrade saves to latest version, open the new version's GUI, go to the Graphics tab, and install an updated graphics pack. You can copy your save folder over to the new version. However, it's often recommended that you start with a fresh game, or else you won't benefit from most of the changes. You can also just backup your old saves for safekeeping, or keep them with an old version of LNP. You may need to delete the old files first, but make sure you salvage your savegames first.
LNP automatically recognizes. It contains embark profiles and world-generation by default. You may want to delete world-gen files because they may be incompatible with newer versions A text file is made named "LNP1. If you delete this file, the Extras folder will be installed again the next time Lazy Newb Pack is ran.
Please do not use this thread to report problems with utilities made by other people. Always keep this open in a window! Fonts: Martin, Guybrush, Bisasam, Phssthpok.
Special Thanks: Skie, Greenbane, Deon. Lead graphics designer: Dale Holodampf. Dfhack library: peterix. Dwarf Therapist chmod, Dwarf Engineer. Special Thanks Mike Mayday for the concept and his embark profile jonask84, Japa, chmod, Phoebus, Mike Mayday, xnrad, joelpt, Ironhand and devek for their support and approval. Also made the dwarves for each embark easier to read. So it will eventually! I don't actually care if this thread is stickied. It floats on its own well enough, and is not officially supported.
Lazy Newb Pack [0. That's a good pack. You forgot to say that you use Sphr's dwarves and creatures. These sprites are awesome, you should give the author a credit. Yeah, that's true! Phoebus' pack uses resources from many people. I figured linking to the projects for full credits and details would be better then duplicating the existing credits on all the project pages. A legacy version of this pack for v0.
This package was a traditional package of compiled utilities, maintained and tested on Debian Jessie 64bit. It worked out-of-the-box with Debian-derived Ubuntu, Mint, etc. An unofficial RPM package of this pack for Fedora can be found here. A Lazy Newb Pack for Mac with lots of graphics packs but with not so many utilities.
The "lite" version includes fewer utilities - see the forum thread for details. Maintaining a pack is a lot of work, and, over the years, people inevitably lose time or motivation to update their packs.
Eventually, someone new steps up and releases their own pack. This section is provided for information, and should not be interpreted as a recommendation for these packs.
Before the LNP, it was becoming common for the community to bundle up their own distributions of Dwarf Fortress with tile sets, graphics, and mods to make them more accessible to players. Other notable packs from this era are Phoebus graphics and Mayday's Graphic Set. The LNP distinguished itself by providing an interface for changing common DF settings, instead of editing the raw text files included with the game. On December 31, LucasUP released the first version of the Lazy Newb Pack that contained the graphical interface launcher that is well known today.
It became the key component of the pack, which allows easy configuration of the DF installation, choose graphics packs, launching of utilities, and provided one click toggling of settings instead of editing configuration files by hand.
The original launcher was built with Visual Basic and. NET 3. In Dricus created a Java-based launcher , which was cross platform and more flexible, but also required manual configuration. This launcher was never finished and so never achieved wide usage, however some early Mac and Linux packs were available based on this version.
It wasn't a complete pack, but just the launcher component that could be used to build platform-specific packs. In order to elicit help and contributions from the community LucasUP opensourced his graphical interface in February by releasing the source on github forum post.
By the late autumn of year the LNP was out of date with new DF releases, and users were clamoring for an update. On November 16, LucasUP declared his tenure as overseer over, thanked the community for their support and gave his blessings for the successor packs that had appeared on the scene. Yes it was my intention to let others work on and maybe eventually take over The Lazy Newb pack after I had released it open source.
I'm really sorry about that. Of course other life responsibilities took me away from LNP, but I don't really have great excuses for why I didn't at least give you guys any updates on myself or re-direct you to other versions sooner, other than just my mind has been elsewhere.
Sorry for any frustration this has caused you guys, and I hope I haven't caused too much ill-will. I feel like a jerk and like I've just been trying to avoid confronting that. I was just doing a fresh install on my laptop, and was groaning over having to setup and download all of the DF content I usually use.
This contains everything and then some. Works great. Thanks a ton dude Everything is in there! Even some new stuff - which is even more amazing. You are a hero man. You seriously just made my day big time. I've been waiting for something like this for months I'm 10 years old again! I'm going to fire up my desktop, take the day off, and just play DF all damn day. I'm shaking with excitement.
Thanks to the DF guys also I haven't been this excited since beta EQ. It worked. The whole thing just worked. DF has always been a pain in the ass, but this install worked. I'm having so much fucking fun it's probably illegal. Thanks dude, seriously - you rock so much. Finally, after like 2 years somebody steps up and provides a totally current working installation which takes 10 minutes to install.
All the tools are here, some new ones - yay.
