An updated launcher is now available for those who want to use 0.42.01 with this pack (PyLNP_0.10c-win32.zip).

If you want to keep using 0.40.24 from this pack as well, only extract the executable itself, not the PyLNP.json file that is also included in the ZIP. If you extract PyLNP.json, you will not be able to toggle hacks in 0.40.24, because the information will be gone.

Should I be awaiting the Linux and MacOX versions with bated breath, or are they going to take a while longer? (Honestly, I'm highly impressed that ANY version of the pack has been updated yet, even if it's for the system I don't have access to; I've been going under the assumtion that when I'm finally able to try the new version this weekend, I'll need to do so pure Vanilla. So please don't take this as a nag/complaint. Thanks for all your hard work!)

Not sure, I'm feeling lazy. Ask me tomorrow.

Keep in mind that I'm only doing the launcher application; all of the content like graphics packs still needs to be updated by their respective maintainers (and bundled by pack maintainers like PeridexisErrant)

For Linux and OS X launchers: I normally provide builds for all the platforms, but at the moment I'm only able to make Windows builds, and other members of the community will be providing Linux and OS X builds of the launcher. You can, of course, choose to download the source code and run it that way; it's all Python and the number of dependencies is kept minimal.

Too lazy to wait; any ETA on your graphics packs?  CLA and Doren/Phoebus have already updated.

The Starter Pack has updated to 0.42.01-r02!  The second of many, available at this page.

This version is remarkably more stable, for only 24 hours of work.  We've got PyLNP working, Phoebus graphics, PerfectWorld (as if worldgen needs to be harder).  Behind the scenes, there are some config changes and improved content handling that should make it easier for me to to update fast in the future.  But enough about that - if you still prefer the latest to the greatest, time to strike the earth!

Changelogs:

0.42.01-r2
 - added Phoebus graphics
 - update PyLNP to 0.10c; handles new init entries now
 - added PerfectWorld; should still work

0.42.01-r1 changelog:
 - updated DF to 0.42.01
 - only ASCII and CLA graphics
 - all utilities except DFHack, Therapist, PerfectWorld (some at reduced effectiveness)
 - the launcher might be broken
 - Tilesets, keybindings, embark profiles, and so on should all work.

So...bets on how long until Toady releases yet another revision, and our poor modders scramble to update once again?

[MobRules]

Yup, of course I meant the 'thanks for your hard work!' to apply to everyone involved in the various third party tools. I know there are are quite a few of you

A hearty toast to the modders who work tirelessly to make DF better for all of us!

Is autolabor in the foreseeable future? I'm a scrub.

I'm not that much of a sucker, thanks.

Indeed!

Is autolabor in the foreseeable future?

DFHack is probably a week or two away, but it's hard to tell.  Expect a similar or slightly shorter timeline for Dwarf Therapist.

I just got the pack, thank you so much, one question, I can't left click on anything in-game. I'm using your pack, any tips?

That's a DFHack plugin, which should be updated in a week or two.  Until then, vanilla controls only or keep using the stable pack - this is one of the reasons I still consider that one better for new players.

[Salkryn]

Looks like we're due for a bugfix release very soon. Let the re-re-updating commence!

[Showbiz]

Thanks a lot!
