The Starter Pack has updated to 0.42.06-r01!  As usual, you can get it here.

There are three kinds of good things in here:

1.  Things that make my life easier but don't affect the pack at all (yay!  see here)
2.  Lots of updates!  DF, Therapist, DFHack, PyLNP... there's some really nice new features in all of them, and bugfixes too!
3.  EVERYONE GO USE ARMOK VISION.

Armok Vision 0.8 is very, very pretty - I spent ages just watching a Greater Horned Owl swooping and dancing above my fortress (shadows and stars sweeping out the day and night, clouds reflecting the weather DF simulates overhead), until the leaves changed and I realised the time.  Turn on DFHack, load up a fort, and launch it from the utilities menu... and if you think it's as cool as I make it sound, consider Japa's Patreon.

Go forth, and strike the beautiful earth!

0.42.06-r01
 - updated DF
 - updated PyLNP
 - updated Dwarf Therapist
 - updated DFHack
 - updated TwbT
 - updated Armok Vision (and Wow, it looks great)
 - improved pack assembler; mostly nice for me
 - now includes manifest.json for all utilities

"I'll release it monday!"

*Releases it almost immediately*

You sly dog. Bravo.

The antivirus detection seems to stem from the AnnouncmentWindow utility, according to virustotal 8/54 antiviruses detect it as a trojan, while both dwarf therapist and dfhack are shown to be clean

Hooray! I feel like the pack is taking a big step forward now. Especially with the manager, I presume making new packs will be much easier from now on.

[BadLeo]

Kudos!


Edit: File version says 0.42.05-r06, archive says 42.06-r01.

It keeps telling me I need to update to 0.42.05-r06, even though I've got 0.42.06-r01

PeridexisErrant, many thanks to your continued dedication the the DF community and ever maintaining the Starter Pack, no matter how many times Toady decides to update in a particular time frame. Will always be appreciated!

This is because the executable is partially self-extracting, which is often used by malware.  False positive in this case, though.

Yep - I'm even looking at nightly builds or something, since I think soon it'll be automatic enough to run on a server    Of course things still break, but when I fix it it stays fixed and the rate of breakage has been declining for a while...

Typo on the website, now fixed.

Hello, I am new to Dwarf Fortress. My question is, will any of the utilities or DFHack commands tell me what each Dwarf Civilization has access to before I embark?

[Saladin]

The game crashes whenever I try to design a statue/figurine using a historical figure. This occurs in forts started in the current version, as well as my main fort which was started in 42.05.

EDIT: It does NOT occur when using a clean install of the base game (i.e. not using LNP).

Bug to report, when I double click GemSet 24px to apply it, it doesn't get highlighted green like in the 42.05 Cutting Edge Pack:



However, all the other packs, such as Mayday 16px (and the one I added, WIPSet) will get highlighted green just fine.



I'm worried this means GemSet isn't functioning properly. Please fix this as GemSet is the only set I can see clearly (I have vision problems).

[Yinseng]

I notice if I use the GemSet pack supplied here https://github.com/DFgraphics/DFgraphics/releases and remove the line in manifest.json that reads "df_max_version": "0.42.05", that it seems to load properly. I think 0.42.05 packs are compatible with 0.42.06, yes? That is the impression I got since WIPSet is compatible with both.

Got a crash with 0.42.06-r01.

New game with this LNP, using DFHack, Workflow switched on and had Dwarf Therapist running. First time setting a production (pot of any material) in workflow, crash happened immediately on setting the production.

You're probably better off posting in the DFHack thread, since LNP "just" bundles utilities (including DFHack).

Oops, of course. Anyway I have not been able to reproduce this, yet.
