The reason for that is that DFHack accesses the memory space used by a running program (it has to, to do its job) which is also how some viruses operate, and so it looks suspicious to the antivirus.

I thought the notice was about PyLNP itself.  This is just skittishness about a new executable.

DFHack should be incredibly suspicious to any AV... it injects a counterfeit DLL and manipulates another process.  Requiring an explicit whitelisting is entirely appropriate (which will happen once enough individual users trust the program).

That's more like what DT does - DFHack runs in the same process as DF, so any antivirus complaints are more likely due to the fact that DFHack replaces SDL.dll on Windows (as Dirst mentioned).

Apparently SDL is the French spelling for DFHack

when will we have a 42.06 pack with DT DFHack and other stuff?

When it is out.

thanks!

No pro bro.

Thanks for doing this.

Can somebody help me with color codes for ore, Raw Adamantine ore to be specific.

I'm trying to locate it on the map by using cheat 'reveal', but it is still not good enough for me since there are so many different ore types and unfortunately just hovering mouse over the ore won't tell which one is it except it is vein.

[lethosor]

Raw adamantine is light blue by default (well, technically light cyan). If you use the "k" cursor on a tile, or click on it if you have the mousequery plugin enabled, you should be able to see the specific type of vein.

[Salkryn]

Also, if you're using reveal, the veins will appear as big black squares on the map unless you use reveal hell, so as to prevent accidentally seeing inside the hollow part of the vein. Reveal hell will autopause the game so you don't accidentally start something you can't finish.

[lethosor]

Oh, yeah, that too. "reveal hell" will actually prevent you from unpausing until you run "unreveal", but it can still help locate adamantine.

[sivistojko]

Thank you for your replies about the ore colors. I noticed those big black (empty?) patches in the midst of the clear stone and ore veins deep down below. Why is that happening, what does that mean 'seeing inside the ore vein'?

[lethosor]

The black boxes are adamantine veins which are intentionally not revealed. If those are revealed and you unpause DF, bad things can happen (check out the wiki for further information), so "reveal" skips blocks with adamantine veins by default.

So, from what I've read, it looks like we've got maybe one more update in .42 before Toady settles down to work on the next major release. Hopefully, that release won't mess up the code our heroes are working on for DFHack, Therapist, etc. and we'll finally have a stable version to work with.

I read it as more like the 40.18 -> 40.19 upgrade; it's a decent chunk but measured in months not years.

Hopefully, that release won't mess up the code our heroes are working on for DFHack, Therapist, etc. and we'll finally have a stable version to work with.

Hahaha, of course it will.  DF doesn't really do stable versions, so the DFHack frontliners really are heroes to provide such an API to the rest of the community!

I suspect the adventurer stuff will be released before the fortress mode workshop/manager clean-up. There's also a 64 bit test DF possibly coming and then maybe a bit more bug fixing probably. Could be wrong of course...
