Ahh, I did not immediately connect the forums to Dwarf Fortress. I was thinking, "this guy is finding clever solutions to tactical problems". Makes sense now. :)

No idea, sorry! I have set the format to .png for all screenshots and am playing on a 1400*900 display with imgur for image hosting. Thing look a lot better ingame than in the geoscape screenshots. TBH its not that much a of a problem, the combat is where most of the fun comes from, and those images look fine. Also, the updates on the bay12 forums are getting kinda big now and lower quality images are helping keeping the thread load in a sensible time for most people.

Heh, thanks for the flattery! Whilst I am failry new to UFO:AI I have been playing x-com and its variants for years and like to think I have learnt a thing or two. It doenst help that as (you correctly assume) most Bay12/DF players are game sadists, and they seem to offer me challenging characters to use.

Regarding the quality of screenshots. Perhaps the jpeg quality is set very low. IN your options, you should see an option for screenshot type. If you switch that to PNG you should get some better quality shots. You may need to convert to jpeg before posting to the forums, though.

I didnt meant the quality of the screenshots, i meant the quality of the actual earth texture. Its really low res while other textures in the battlescape are in a higher quality.

I have no idea why that might be. I do have the screen stretched 4:3 to avoid lots of black sidebars. I have the texture resolution set to "normal" as my not-so-great laptop copes well with all other graphical features on at that texture but struggles with the weather if set higher. I shall try setting the texture resolution to high and turning weather effects off.
