Twitch plays Dwarf Fortress... THE HORROR!!!

Great job on doing the impossible, though I too am having a small problem with misallignment on the latest version of chrome.

Have you tried the fix that Adeon recommended to me?

Yes, the font is most likely the issue. Dfterm3 bundles with the Cootue Curses Square TTF font that I once asked from the author if I can bundle it.

Since I cannot promise a release any time soon, I'll instead tell you how to replace the font.

On the server, if you go to the place where Dfterm3 is installed, you should see 'web-interface' directory, under which you will find 'resources' directory. I think the quickest and laziest way is to replace the 'cootue_curses_square_16x16.ttf' file in this directory with one of your own TTF fonts (as in, overwrite this file with another font).

Back in the days of the first Dfterm (that was over 4 year ago??) Elvang compiled a set of TTF fonts for use with Dfterm. These should still work: http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=1922. I don't know if anyone has compiled a more up-to-date TTF set.

Are there plans to update the plugin for dfhack r5, since there's a single official and new release available?

The work involved is pretty much just recompiling the plugin (that is, it's quick and easy). I'll put some binaries up in an hour or two.

Windows plugin for DFHack 0.34.11-r5 here.

Does DFTerm work with the latest DF?

Does DFTerm work with the latest DF?

^
That.
Does this work with the latest DFHack?
Has the plugin broken?

[PeridexisErrant]

It *might* work if recompiled, but even then would probably require some changes.  No chance as-is.

Here is a reply to help some people, If you are having an Alignment issue, the fix I found is to go into your browser settings and change the FONT that is uses, I haven't tested any other font besides "Courier New" but seems to fix the alignment issues on my browser as well as friends browsers, Hope this helps.

P.S. Tried that one fix with swapping out DFterm3's Internal font, it didn't do anything and I don't think it actually does anything?

Oh, also a Webtiles game called Dungeon Crawl Stone soup uses an Ascii to Tiles system somehow, it uses low bandwidth and has quite a bit of advanced websocket stuff that you guys seem to be trying to do, maybe you should research into how they do it if you want tiles with DFterm as when you join an ongoing game depending on the URL you can see it in Ascii or Tiles.

URL for Tiles https://crawl.s-z.org/
To View games in ascii you connect to it with PuTTy http://crawl.develz.org/wordpress/howto

I couldn't fine any forum posting rules so I hope I'm not Violating anything.

[katwithk]

the server program won't launch. It pops up a terminal window which closes itself immediately. I feel like a dummy, there must be something glaringly obvious I'm missing here.

[Legendel]

Is there any way to force the plugin to work in the lastest dfhack? Or perhaps does anyone know the offsets (or how to get them since all of the guides are incomplete) for the latest df? I'm sure there's a bunch of us jerks wanting to run "multiplayer" on the latest ver.

[PeridexisErrant]

No way to update this, but there are newer alternatives:  http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=144956

Thanks for the response!
