v0.5.0-beta

  • Linear movement: A new implementation that, if proven stable enough, we'll integrate into the DFHack PR and eventually make part of the official plugin.
  • Visible hauled items: An experiment with how far we can push the graphical layer. Items carried by dwarves are now actually visible on screen instead of only being shown inside a menu.
  • Follow camera: An experimental camera implementation that follows the currently selected character. For now, this only works in Fortress Mode.
  • all on/off: Quickly toggle all features with a single command. Smooth camera is now considered WIP and isn't enabled by all on.

Tip

We recommend capping the game at 60 FPS when using linear movement. Because the animation depends on frame timing, a stable 60 FPS currently provides the smoothest and most consistent experience.
Known issue

There's currently a crash if you enable individual features before enabling the plugin itself and then run disable. We're aware of it and working on it.

As always, feedback and bug reports are very welcome

Installation

  1. Download the release archive for your operating system and DFHack version.

    • Windows: hack/plugins/smooth-movement.plug.dll
  4. Start Dwarf Fortress through DFHack and run this in the console:
load smooth-movement
