The crashes I reported for 40.24-r20 seem to me like they were related to workflow still. I made a new world with workflow disabled and had no crashes at all after about 3 years in my fort. On the save with workflow enabled i would've crashed several times by that point.
Maybe the 42.xx version will fix that soon.

The workflow crash should have been fixed in DFHack 0.40.24-r5, which PE included in at least one pack before 0.42.01.

I love everyone that makes this startepack happen. Enough said

I'm aware of that lethosor, I only actually started using workflow on the r20 pack which does have the fixed workflow version. I just meant that the updated version seems like it's not totally stable yet.

I also experienced a similar issue with workflow, but rather than give it up, I proceeded to retire my fort and then immediately reclaim it, and now 11 years later my fort is chugging along without a single crash. Wish I would have thought of this before I axed my last fort

Here here! They are the unsung champions of Dwarf Fortress!

There are a few vanilla crashes present in 0.40.24 too - can you make sure it's not one of those, like building over trees? You could also upload the save somewhere so I can figure out if it's workflow causing the issue.

I wasn't doing any construction at the time, so I don't think it would've been the crash with building stuff in leaves.

Here's the save, though the crashes might take time, up to half a year in-game time from this point. As I mentioned last time, I got a crash the last time i tried to save.

FYI, the tree/construction bug doesn't require you to be building anything.  The construction could already be there, and a sapling mature close to it.

Remember that elves value all plants, not just trees.  So be sure to pave over everything to keep your fort safe!

 I guess a lot of Starter Pack Users prefer to play without Aquifers, thats why I want to suggest a button for activating/deactivating digging cancelations.

What do you think?

Sadly this is not possible in the launcher, for technical reasons.

Looks like a new release tomorrow. Hopefully, the bugfixes won't interfere with the stuff that's already in the pack.

Dwarf Therapist will need an update, but everything else should be fine.

I have strange errors with the non-official release GUI. I can set all the options I wish without problem until I update the graphics. From there it goes downhill..

I can, for example, set Spacefox 16ps; but it will not found any savegame if I try to update them. (Folders are detected and set correctly though by the GUI)
The graphics will be partly Spacefox but not entirely..

The stderr is full of
IOError: Failed to read settings, .\Dwarf Fortress 0.42.02 not really a DF dir?
ERROR: Could not open folder Dwarf Fortress 0.42.02 in system file manager
ERROR: Could not open folder Dwarf Fortress 0.42.02\data\save in system file manager
ERROR: Something went wrong while installing graphics

The Gui will refuse to start after with a:
ERROR: Failed to read settings, .\Dwarf Fortress 0.42.02 not really a DF dir?
and other messages related to the My documents of another person

Happens if the Launcher is run normally or with a run as Administrator (this to remove the possibility I would not have the rights on the folders).
I did not change any path, the tool correctly detected them.
I did not add spaces in the names neither.

I am aware than it is not a definitive version but I did not see any warning related to the graphic pack so I wonder:
It is just me or did I miss something somewhere?

[Ragnarock]

I'm really sorry, but I can't read through all the recent posts at the moment. When, roughly, the LNP for the current version is going to be released? Are you waiting for the usual bugfixes first?

Thanks in advance for your response.
