The graphics segment of Dwarf Fortress
System Requirements
In addition to the hardware requirements (which will be the same as the other platforms) your system will need these libraries installed:
- GTK+ 2+
- SDL 1.2+
- SDL_image
And some kind of OpenGL implementation, so:
- libgl
- libglu
Commandline Options
-sound_output : sets the sound system to use. Possible values: ALSA - Use the Advanced Linux Sound Architecture. (default) OSS - Use the Open Sound System. ESD - Use the Enlightenment Sound Daemon.
If you need to use one of the alternative systems and want to avoid having to run from a terminal everytime, add the switch and the sound system required to the df script.
Known Issues
-
If the mouse cursor is enabled, and you are running fullscreen it reacts strangely around the leftmost and topmost edges of the screen.
-
Recorded movies will flicker every few frames, with artifacts on larger screen sizes.
-
If the lock keys (caps lock, num lock, etc) do not work for you, open the df file in a text editor and remove the line that reads
export SDL_DISABLE_LOCK_KEYS=1
it's a work around for a bug in the SDL package in Debian based distributions, that reverses the behaviour of the above environmental variable.
