sorry ,but how do i use it , i extract it on save folder but nothing ingame
@@jamest.4823 Extract it into the save folder and restart the game.
@@BlindiRL thx for helping , actually my bad didnt have the same version lmao
You don't happen to have an earlier save to share so that we can build alongside you this episode do you? Or is there a seed or anything like that in DF? Thanks for the help, this will really help me get started!
How does one get the seed from this?
I decided I wanted a well near my hospital, so I rerouted a surface river down 10z. I underestimated water. I flooded down half of my fortress, but two brave heroes, Edem and Catten were able to dig out a drain. Unfortunately, in order to complete the drain they had to mine into the flooded area and were overcome by the torrent. I lost several more in recovering their bodies. They all now share an honored memorial tomb so no one forgets their brave sacrifice.
A truly dwarfy tale!!
Even if you think you are prepared, the first time you're playing with water will always go wrong. I learned that the hard way as well :P
@@crowhaveninc.2103 Agreed. TIL light aquifers don't absorb water... After I channeled a river through my tavern and down into said aquifer. I had a floodgate in place for maintenance and the like. By the time I realized my fort was flooding... It was too late. On the plus side, they were sooo happy before they drowned!
@@RaineAndrews1 Very Dorfy indeed xd
Damn maybe my river idea wasn’t a good one, I did the same thing expect I flooded my area so quickly
7:40 I laughed for a good while when you gave this explanation about treefelling as it reminded me of my first ever contact with the Steam version of DF.
I am a veteran player, had a *big* DF phase that eventually mellowed out for a few years. Seeing the game again pop up in Steam fueled my desire to play again. And so I did.
Being a bit rusty and having a brand new UI I figured I might aswell just play the tutorial and see how it was made.
Generate a small world, and I get the "play now?" tutorial prompt. "huh, no carefully prepared embark... I guess the tutorial will choose a sensible starting location and wagon. Let's see how it goes". So i clicked it.
The game set me up for a tutorial partly on an evil biome right off the bat. Instant _fun_ as they say.
So there I was, trying to relearn the game before anything worse came to happen. First thing first, chop some wood from the untainted part of the map aaaand... a dwarf has died crushed under a tree. Not a minute into the tutorial. And before I had finished laughing it reanimated and killed the rest of the crew.
I can only imagine if this happened to a new player, what a legendary first contact it would be with the good old mantra that
*losing is fun*
The exact same thing happened to me! The tutorial plopped me in a spot where half of the landscape was covered in clusters of eyes
@@robobuilder1335 It sounds like the tutorial does exactly what it needs: TEACH ABOUT LOSING / DEAD DWARVES!
This happened to me however my dwarves died to yaks they were trying to hunt. It was my very first fortress and I laughed extremely hard seeing that they came back and killed everyone else
for FUN'S sake that sounds like FUN
Project zomboid, dwarf fortress... It's all about loving to lose or in other words: masochists.
You are the reason that I'm actually able to understand and enjoy this absolute gem of a game! Thank you so much for all your work and helping newbies like me
Totally, really appreciate the hard work Blind!
Same here
Absolutely - same here. Your videos have been essential to learning DF.
@@chashagin1 The new interface helps a lot, and this is coming from a guy who's been playing on and off for about 10 years.
For sure! Awesome stuff Blind has going on here. I could watch several hour long episodes everyday in this new format!
At about 36:00 you may want to ensure that you have a 3 tile wide path to the trade depot so that your visiting traders can bring wagons. Otherwise they will only appear with what they can carry because the wagon can't make it to the depot.
his next video showing the trade, the coming trader seemed to be able to unload his item in his trade depot despite it is not on the surface (must be entered from stair), I thought this will fail the trade???
@@head0fmob that's because the early traders bring smaller wagons.
A friend of mine really got into this game and wanted me and other friends to also get into because he plans on making a Succesion game like Boatmurdered with us. It's the first time I'm playing a game with such complexity and it's hard to get into as a newcomer. I can honestly see how I can really enjoy this game, but it would take a lot for me to be able to actually enjoy it without feeling stressed. This video series will really help me ease into it and enjoy the game as a whole. Thank you for this.
My favorite thing was my first attempt on steam edition, my wood cutter lived a total of 3 mins before he cut down a tree that was next to a small pond. He decided that instead of being on the safe side of it (where the land is) he would try to wade into the water to get a good angle (I was trying to chop it not even for the wood, it was just in the way of my irrigation system and I wanted it to look nice)
He cuts the tree, the ground gives out, causing him to sink in and drown. I only noticed when it said he’d been missing for weeks. I completely ignored the surface collapse because it had been happening all over way to the north of me so I figured it was just the area next to the river.
Following your tutorials, I have run into a hilarious problem: the starting fortress is so nice that I am flooded with guests, migrants, etc. to the point that nobody does anything because fortress government can't keep up with everyone and they all just hang out in the tavern, brawling and leaving the corpses to stink up the dancefloor. Nobody seems to care enough to move them or stop socializing; they just get into worse and worse moods.
Reminds me of something…
we live in a dwarfciety
Huh, I’ve never encountered being too good in this game. I got to 80 with no unhappy people, but I haven’t seen them kill each other.
This series is a lifesaver. Your ability to clearly and simply explain how to navigate this game has helped me get my footing more than anything else I've found so far. Thanks!
You channel and videos are fantastically detailed and informative, as well as very impressively thought out. Thank you for all the effort you put into this.
I love this series! Thank you for putting your time into this. I know Im not the only one when I say that I appreciate your efforts into this. 🙂
As someone who voted for you to continue the old fort . . . . after you had decided to make the new one technically, but, wanted to say, this is a fantastic tutorial and a great start for a new series.
Always looking forward to more, whatever you do; finally being able to play this game has been a treat, everything you've done has only made it better.
Thank you for restarting, the extra explanations and context are very helpful.
This is an excellent start, thank you so much! I only just started this game yesterday and to say the depth of it is overwhelming would be a complete understatement!
Excellent work as usual. My first experience was back around 2011 for a week or so before life kept me from continuing to play. So these have helped dust off a lot of memories and skills
This is an awesome idea! It has really helped my play through majorly. Thank you so much for doing this!
This episode was great! Really looking forward for the rest of them :D
Thanks, Definitely one of the best videos so far, looking forward to this series
This is so helpful. Giving context for why you are doing something in a play through is so clarifying. Only been playing this since the Steam version so a total noob, but you've really helped me get started! Keep up the good work!
Liking this new series a lot! Somehow I find these types of videos still very entertaining even though I've played DF on and off for 10+ years
Really really helpful, fast and to the point. Super series!
A solid foundation for newcomers and that's coming from one! I did manage to figure out a good chunk of this on my own, but didn't think to dabble in the nobles menu let alone build a throne. I'm particularly happy I figured out farms, managers, brokers and bookkeepers since they're clearly core features. Maybe now I'll survive more than two years and get a start on my military!
Seriously, cheers for this my man.
Ohhhhh YES! I hadn’t started your other series yet, so this is PERFECT timing!
this video is really saving me. keep up the amazing work and videos, and thank you'
Wow that was fast since the poll, awesome. I haven't played in a while, so I'm looking to this for a refresher. Good stuff
YOU ARE incredible! Thanks for the tutorial! Can't wait to get cracking with my own DF!
Liked and Subbed, your tutorials are a GODSEND to new players like me. They are incredibly helpful and i would like to thank you!
The first tutorial series started out amazing, I was able to understand the game thanks to you!
Episode 3 and 4 felt a little rushed, but I'm very glad to see this new series! Thanks for doing it for the community! Happy to see your channel growth, you derserve it!
watched lots of tutorial vids and have to say yours is the most comprehensive and detailed
I love this series so far because I used to play DF years ago and I got quite good but stopped playing for a while, so this is a good refresher
Thanks for all your work, helpful and enjoyable
Thank you. I never heard of Dwarf Fortress before the Steam launch, nor did I ever hear about a TH-camr/Twitch named Blind. I love your easy to follow guides and you really make this game more manageable to play. Thank you for providing me (up until now) with 20h of fun Dwarfen gameplay and the hours of content about them.
I really like the way you teach this tutorial. You have an excellent way of relating what is important without over explaining and getting lost in the details, you are fast enough to keep it interesting and avoid dead air time and just have a pleasant tone to your voice that is authorative and still entertaining. I am looking forward to watching the rest. I have been playing for months and already picked up on several important details I have missed that will make a big difference in my future games. I hope to see more from you in games we both find interesting.
Thanks a lot for making these tutorial series!
Hello just started playing dwarf fortress, and out all I guide videos I saw this one of the most comprehensive beginner guide. I actually feel confident playing the game thank you!
Thank you for the effort.
Restarting was a very good move indeed.
I wanna say I love your videos. Thank you so much for these tutorials. I've wanted to get into dwarf fortress for so long, but i just hadnt had the mental energy to properly understand the asci version. Youve helped me and my dwarves more than i can express Thank you
You helped me so much! thank you!
I appreciate all the work you're putting into your tutorials :)
Thank you for these tutorials, total life savers!
This is easily one of the best introductory videos on Dwarf Fortress. Big fan of these and the streams.
Blind thanks for these videos, they are helping me alot. Cheers man.
You have really outdone yourself with these videos, thank you so much.
After literal years of reading the wild stories about the game but never having the mental fortitude to play it, I picked up this version and it's amazing beyond every description I've heard.
My first death: a cat climbed up a tree, couldn't get down so it started making so much noise the carpenter tried to kill it.
It failed to kill it with a crossbow so it tried to climb up with a ladder. Once up there it also got stuck because a monkey stole the ladder.
They started to starve, so they decided to eat the cat, raw. It became bloodthirsty, jumped down the tree, broke both legs then and attacked a child, which killed it with a pinecone, and grew up to become the mayor.
Dont really get the game. I think I'm playing it like Oxygen Not Included, which is wrong. idk
Awesome. Really enjoying your tutorial. Not as basic as other ones, so it remains interesting without making me feel stupid. haha. Keep them coming.
Conscise and well explained. You've put all the necessary tips for a good start in under an hour.
I've also noticed the effort you put in a script and progress you've made with editing and manner of speaking - keep it up!
This was so helpful, thank you!
Awesome episode, keep it up! 😁
Very detailed, nice
I love these kind of tutorials and explained videos with jump cuts in them. As some one who never played the game I want to get a feel for it, how the early mid and late game is like. Hope you continue this series
Very informative!
I'm excited to watch through this new tutorial. Understandably, the first time around some things were left out such as getting all productions ready in preparations for Strange Moods. But all of your content has been extremely useful for me to get started with this game. Can't wait to see where this fort goes. When it does inevitably go to shit, I would love to see that as well!
This is so helpful seriously thank you so much.
I've been wanting to get into DF so badly but it's very overwhelming at times, so having you walkthrough everything makes learning the game a lot less frustrating.
I much enjoy these videos, but they could really benefit from having selectable chapters on the specific topics you address. So you can get to them quickly. With the amount of information in Dwarf Fortress, you'll want to re-watch a lot of specific things a few times before you've fully absorbed them. To do that, you have to know what information is in which video, and where exactly.
He added them!
Just wanted to thank you for these bite sized tutorials. They really help!
Thanks for these amazing videos
Started playing DF a couple weeks ago and have been very slowly learning. I already learned SO many things from just this first video in the series. I can't wait to watch the rest and get rolling. Loving all of this. Thanks so much for all the time and effort!
Thank you for taking the time to leave a comment! Hope you find the rest of it helpful as well.
I've been watching a lot of DF lets plays and tutorial and this is far and away the best one
You should really use the button next to the minimap with an arrow pointing at an x to set the f key hotkeys to zip your view around the fort to preset locations, allows you to set a location and press the corresponding f key to instantly move there, instead of just f1 to take you to the wagon. You can quickly move up or down floors without needing to scroll up and down.
Very nice video 👍 i will watch all episodes 👍😁
You’ve got great videos man. You’re a good teacher, too.
Super helpful to start a game for a newcomer. Thanks a lot
I've made like 6 different worlds striking Earth and getting lost and messing things up.
Enjoying your work. Thank you.
20 years of development. I'm stoked.
This is great! Thank You!
Thinking about giving this game a try, videos like this make me want consider buying this game!
Thanks
Thank you so much for this tutorial. Now i have the begining of a fortress running. Waiting for your next video '-'
Thanks for the video! Didn't know about the ability to specify the amount of mugs in the meeting room.
Well, that, and the 7000+ other things in DF I still have no idea about.
Love building with Jet and Chalk for that black & white look ;). Also, had a whole layer once with rock salt and microcline (pastel pink and cyan) my fort was sooo beautiful!
Epic thx Blind
What you might want to do, for those of us who want to play along exactly, you might want to provide your seed so we can get the same map as you.
Just a thought, loving these tutorials man.
Great, these are helpful.
These are amazing, thank you
I'm extremely glad to have found your videos, and grateful to you for making them. As a newcominger to DF since Steam release, I'm fascinated with it. That fascination is frequently coupled with frustration as I doom one fledging outpost after another under my clumsy and misguided (while well-meaning) attempts to starting a good fortress. This first video has already been of tremendous insight.
Welcome aboard! Glad people are still finding use in these videos a year later.
Wow ... a VERY cool embark area in this one ... I Love it when you get starting areas like that ... lots of places to dig ... heh.
God, thank you. I just grabbed this off steam and I don't think I've ever had so many tabs open in chrome. Things were NOT going well at all. Happy to restart following this fantastic tutorial.
I have tried to play DF over the last week, and watching this video has inspired me.
I have so much to learn, but I honestly want to get to your level of expertise. Looks incredibly fun.
Excelente tutorial
Splendid tutorial! I've lost 2 dwarves while chopping trees, b/c somehow *within* the trunk there was a hidden floor of soil... depending on agility I think, sometimes the dwarves get away when it collapses - then I get a message telling me they're fighting a dust cloud... sometimes they drop unconcious and recover, and then there were those I lost... I haven't been able to figure out how to spot the danger beforehand, though. Looking very forward to learning more about aquifers!
That is a beautiful valley to embark to.
Good on you for updating old work 👍
Thanks for putting this video out. Just a few weeks into my journey with DF and the learning curve is steep
Enjoy it! If you need extra help my discord is great and I'll be streaming today as well.
I've always wanted to play a game like this, but woo, it's a tough one. Thanks for the insight, Blind.
Thank you sooo much! I didnt know how to get my mugs out of the workshop! Lol
I wish I met with this game earlier but hey I find your channel and thanks a lot for the video I'll watch all of the guides and advice you to all my friends LONG LIVE THE DWARFS
Thank you for this.
thank you fort his tutorial fortress
Okay, you got me! I'll subscribe
Got em
Loving this! Dude Grats to you in capitalizing on this games steam release, your effort is gonna make you a bag! Imagine playing dwarf fortress with near endless possibilities and actually being paid for it! When you get bored with farming, time to start a dwarves crusade! Bored with combat? Time to build a master crafting fortress! Done with crafting? Time to start digging the largest fortress you have ever seen filled to the brim with traps and resources to allow you to keep digging forever!
This is a great tutorial
Settled in a place with no aquifer because it had a flux stone layer and lots of metals. Thanks to this video, I was able to turn the little brook in the opposite corner of the map from my base into a nearby water source!
My lady bought me this game for christmas, and i immediately searched up tutorials for how to play. Your videos were the first i saw, so i hopped in a bath and put it on. Fantastic and informative content. I will most likely be watching all of this series.
One question i do have, because it for whatever reason super irks me - How do you remove those piles of stone and gems all over the place? Its making my ocd go nuts lol
The Lords work my friend
first series was great this one is much better!
i just started and i have absolutely no idea what i'm doing so i'm here watching every single beginner's guide i can find
My brother recommended I check you out as I was finding the difficulty / complexity overwhelming.
Ty for the Videos, i feel like a Dwarf now
29:01 can you imagine getting a job where your 'office' is just a lone chair in the middle of a hallway?
Cheers mate - video was useful. Was a bit overwhelmed upon starting this game as the tutorial only really covers the usage of stonecutter and carpenter workshops.
"i am ecstatic with this embark 🗿" hahaha good stuff
Recently got into the game, been using the mussel shells my fisherdwarf has been collecting to flood the market with 10-30 value jewelry (think I still have about 500-something shells not being used in spite of that), so I’ve got a massive amount of cheap items to sell when it’s trading season, and I’m saving the gems for when I start regularly getting masterwork-grade stuff
