modifying your old releases allows u to update to the current file/version, that way u can stop cuttering the game releases section with a new pack everytime the game updates

I know you can update an existing version. I was more wanting to keep old versions in case someone wanted an older version. For example, say the current pack doesnt have a utility because it is not supported yet, so someone might want to play with an older version until the newest version supports it.
Anyways, I've deleted all the old versions off DFFD. The current version does not have any issues like I mentioned above. I'll keep the current and previous versions hosted on
drop.io/lazynewbpack though (linked to on the forum thread)
o i wasnt trying to be an ass, was jus making sure u knew

Thank you. 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... awesome pack, awesome job - I really just wanted to quickly fire up some DF action, and this was perfect! 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... haha. WOOOO! 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... love the game.
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. I can't fucking believe this. This is fucking Nirvana. I don't even want to touch the game, I'm afraid this shit is all fake. I'm just looking at the screen - the doorfs and dogs... mayday startup, I'm afraid if I dig this whole thing will blow up.
Nope, it didn't... it actually works...
Alright I'm broke. I'm just living in a 71 motorhome next to the Flathead Middle Fork river... but I have to give these dudes something. I just have to. It's just not right to play this amazing game and not give something back. It's not right. I was a software pirate for 20 years, at least. This game deserves some credence, however. These programmers, and developers deserve some recognition, some money, and some more money.
To the guy that actually put this pack together - you are awesome, you should get a paypal button. I will donate. This is the best game ever. I want some money to go to the developers, however. I want 65% of my money to go to the developers. I'll pay - just provide a Paypal link.
I have no idea if its just my comp, but everytime I use any tileset the ASCII graphics bleed through, or I get a door that should be a river tile. Is this a natural occurance? The LNP pack is very nice btw, im not complaining, I can deal with a few graphical glitches if its common if not I would like a fix for it.
I just discovered this game. Downloaded it, installed it, and ran it for the first time. And even though I absolutely love the concept, the graphics of little faces and "c"s and "h"s running around instantly gave me a headache. So started the search for graphic sets and tile sets....
If it weren't for this Pack that combines all the love and effort of who knows how many people, I could have been searching for days.
Thank you so much for saving me days of horrible searching techniques to find all of these wonderful addons. TIME TO MINE!!!!
Thanks a bunch, I came here for just new graphics, and got sound files as well as other stuff too, this is a great game, and you've just made it greater.
