Out of curiosity, does anyone know how well a higher-end PC runs DF? Mine has trouble generating worlds any bigger than Pocket, particularly if there are large numbers of civs/beasts.

I have a 6 year old laptop (high-end when I bought it) with an Intel i5 and 8GB RAM and it takes a few hours to generate really large worlds (length of history is the biggest factor though). Pocket worlds can be generated in a couple minutes for me.

What's the biggest challenge in transitioning to 64-bit?

Are DFHack, Dwarf Therapist reading/writing to the memory of Dwarf Fortress? You need new tables? Lots of dynamic memory addresses?

Let me know if help is needed, I used to develop hacks and mods long time ago.

Biggest challenge is the new compiler, with changes in the layout of std templates.

[lethosor]

Well, I'd say the biggest one I've been working with is that some of our structure layouts were slightly incorrect, which breaks with 64-bit DF. There are also a few new fields in 0.43.04-05, but those aren't unusual.

STL layout changes are mainly an issue with our static analysis scripts, which break in weird ways on Windows now. Since we use the same compiler as DF to compile DFHack, we don't have to worry about STL changes in DFHack/scripts/plugins as much.

The Starter Pack has updated to 0.43.03-r05!
As usual, you can get it here.

This release focusses on content updates and bugfixes - Armok Vision is prettier than ever from the new first-person mode; SoundCenSe is like Soundsense but shinier; and there are many smaller things (just read the changelog).

Work is ongoing on the update to 64-bit DF 43.05, but expected to take a while longer (nobody knows exactly how long).  Until then, remember that the 32bit version - this one! - is better than it's ever been before 

Strike the Earth!

0.43.03-r05
 - added SoundCenSe
 - added Lee's Color Scheme v2
 - fixed keybinding for gui/settings-manager
 - re-enabled TwbT by default (in DFHack tab)
 - misc minor tweaks (eg no blank line in tooltips)
 - added option to hide DFHack console window
 - updated Armok Vision
 - updated Mayday and Spacefox graphics

The launcher doesn't contain way to edit and copy dfhack.init from previous version (or whatever it is called) if I recall correctly, and I can't exactly check right now. It's one of the minor annoyances I have to go through everytime I update the starter pack, line by line comparison to see what all stuff I have disabled and what new has been added that I might want to disable. In particular I usually disable plugins I have no need for, because number of active plugins does correlate with changes for the game to crash.

Any changes you could address this minor annoyance of mine?

[PeridexisErrant]

I suggest writing your own init file, which can simply be copied over.  This puts all your changes relative to the base in one place, and it's a lot easier to keep track of.

https://dfhack.readthedocs.io/en/stable/docs/Core.html#init-files

For new stuff, we just have to read the files!  (or use a diff tool)

How goes the long slog to a functioning DFHack for .43.05?

See PeridexisErrant's post 3 posts above yours, 3:rd paragraph.

[Rose]

Now that you've released this, should I release another Armok Vision version?


Blood splatters were actually easier than expected.

[jecowa]

It looks like there might not be a memory layout for Dwarf Fortress v0.43.03 included in the pack; it only has layouts going up to v0.42.06.

If you are going to release another update anyway, maybe you would consider throwing this file into your /LNP/graphics/Phoebus/data/art/ folder as an option?

I don't know if i'm the only one but dwarf therapist doesnt seem to work with the new version. im getting an unidentified game version error.

EDIT: Nevermind. should have checked dwarf therapist thread first.

To get Dwarf Therapist to work, you need to download a slightly older version Dwarf Fortress - v0.43.03.

Then you need to manually update an ini file. Instructions here - https://github.com/splintermind/Dwarf-Therapist/tree/DF2016/share/memory_layouts
