Yeah, that makes sense. I guess that's the downside of quicker releases: less time for the community to catch up by updating the utilities. Still, can't complain overall. Thanks for your thoughts.

Toady's switch to a newer Windows compiler in 0.43.04 requires a lot more work for memory-editing utilities (DFHack, DT) than normal, and a 64-bit release will require even more. It's possible that there'll be another DFHack release for 0.43.03 with some fixes at some point, but I don't really know yet.

Thanks for the info. I'm always curious about this stuff.

Meanwhile we'll have to play the game hardcore mode, no utilities, just you and 7 drunken midgets against the world.

I've updated TWBT source for 0.43.03, will make a build this evening.

Woot, TWBT update, I am so excited, thank you all for your legendary work!

Hello! Question (and if this is better asked in another place, let me know and I'll be happy to do so!).

When using the standard world creator (Create New World) with History set to Very Long, the game will just about complete the world generation (after taking quite a bit of time) but seize up and crash when finishing the final year (1050). I ask here first because I'm using the most recent LNP (0.42.06) and didn't encounter this before on a previous build (0.40.24).

Is there something I can change or check, or is this a 'me' thing I'll just have to deal with?

Same here. Probably we should be able to just get graphics and Dwarf Therapist separately fairly easily... if it's much longer for the full pack, I think I'll try that.

DT is mostly dependent on df-structures/dfhack work, which isn't there yet, and parts of DT might also need to be rewritten to handle the new compiler on Windows (not sure how that part is structured).

When do you think PeridexisErrant's DF Starter Pack will be available for 43.##?

I was getting impatient today and was attempting apply all the scripts/graphics/etc. that I use from your starter pack and realized how much work and detail that is included in this.

For fear of messing up something, I am now considering waiting for yours.

(b.t.w. thanks for your work)

The issue was present in 0.40.24 as well and I don't think it's related to LNP. You may want to try to remove DFHack from the LNP version and then generate your world to see if it works better. When a world has been generated, you can then reenable DFHack and start playing in the generated world. Alternatively, you can download the 0.42.06 vanilla DF, generate the world there, and copy the save. My guess is that it's a very annoying thing that happens with DF sometimes with an annoyingly high frequency, typically as the world finalizes.

I've got a prototype for 43.03, but that's a prerelease DFHack and untested.
