DFHack is an attempt to unite the various ways hack tools access DF memory and allow for easier development of new tools (and of course, make the game more enjoyable for players). It comes with some useful tools that can fix your fort and make things easier to handle. DFHack integrates with Dwarf Fortress and extends it with plugins, a command console and a way to bind hotkeys to the commands.

Continued development of DFHack would be impossible without its contributors and definitely isn't a one robot show. Check this out! Peterix started the project but has become relatively inactive so I've volunteered to take over managing the releases. It's open source so anyone can add changes and make their own releases.

Some command examples:
'reveal'     - reveals the map or portions of it.
'digFlood' - digs out a mineral vein as it is discovered without revealing the size
'prospect'   - counts available raw materials - mostly minerals.
'clean'      - removes nasty bloodstains and other such materials from the map, items and creatures.
'cleanowned' - removes ownership of claimed items, solving problems with worn clothing and military starving out the fort.
'stonesense' - an embedded version of the Stonesense isometric visualizer, ready for use.

And many more...

How to install DFHack:

• First, get the archive meant for your system. Extract the contents into your DF folder.
• On Windows, you're ready to use DFHack. An extra command line window should appear when you run DF.
• On Linux, use the 'dfhack' script from a terminal to run DF with DFHack. If you have stonesense problems, you might have to get your own allegro 5 libraries and delete the ones in stonesense/deplibs.

How to uninstall DFHack:

• Remove 'stonesense', 'hack' and 'dfusion' folders from your DF.
• On Windows, remove SDL.dll and rename SDLreal.dll to SDL.dll
• On Linux, remove the dfhack script.

This is a release for 0.43.03 (*not* 0.43.04, 0.43.05, or anything newer - support for those is in progress, but likely to take longer than usual, so we decided to make a release for 0.43.03 in the meantime).

- `fix/diplomats`: replaces ``fixdiplomats``
- `fix/merchants`: replaces ``fixmerchants``

DFHack is an attempt to unite the various ways hack tools access DF memory and allow for easier development of new tools (and of course, make the game more enjoyable for players). It comes with some useful tools that can fix your fort and make things easier to handle. DFHack integrates with Dwarf Fortress and extends it with plugins, a command console and a way to bind hotkeys to the commands.

Continued development of DFHack would be impossible without its contributors and definitely isn't a one man show. Check this out! Peterix started the project but has become relatively inactive so I've volunteered to take over managing the releases. It's open source so anyone can add changes and make their own releases.

Some command examples:
'reveal'     - reveals the map or portions of it.
'digFlood' - digs out a mineral vein as it is discovered without revealing the size
'prospect'   - counts available raw materials - mostly minerals.
'clean'      - removes nasty bloodstains and other such materials from the map, items and creatures.
'cleanowned' - removes ownership of claimed items, solving problems with worn clothing and military starving out the fort.
'stonesense' - an embedded version of the Stonesense isometric visualizer, ready for use. This must be downloaded separately for technical reasons.

And many more...

How to install DFHack:

• First, get the archive meant for your system. Extract the contents into your DF folder.
• On Windows, you're ready to use DFHack. An extra command line window should appear when you run DF.
• On Linux, use the 'dfhack' script from a terminal to run DF with DFHack. If you have stonesense problems, you might have to get your own allegro 5 libraries and delete the ones in stonesense/deplibs.

How to uninstall DFHack:

• Remove 'stonesense', 'hack' and 'dfusion' folders from your DF.
• On Windows, remove SDL.dll and rename SDLreal.dll to SDL.dll
• On Linux, remove the dfhack script.

DFHack 0.40.10-r1 (Current):

• Linux version (gcc 4.9.1)
• Linux version (gcc 4.6.3)
• Windows version
• Mac OSX Version

What's New

A few bugfixes.

Possible Problems:

• There may be general instability, especially with old scripts. Proceed carefully and make detailed bug reports if you have problems.

Reserved.

PTW, standing by for OSX compile.

[lethosor]

I have a working OS X build, which I will upload as soon as I can (assuming danaris doesn't do it first).

[PeridexisErrant]

PTW.  It's great to have an official release again - hopefully all the various scripts and plugins can once more support a single version.  The new features also look great!

I noticed that the Readme link goes to expwnent/dfhack, while the other links are to DFHack/dfhack - is this intentional, and are there any plans regarding the organisation page?

The 0.34.11-r5 branch hasn't been merged back into DFHack/dfhack yet.

[PeridexisErrant]

Thought it'd be something like that.  I'm playing around with it now - i'll probably hold a starter pack release a day or two for Falconne's plugins to update, but I have to mention that your embark tools are fantastic. 

Edit:  very minor bug report, in the dfhack.init_example workflow bindings are given twice - near the top of the contextual bindings as Ctrl-W, Ctrl-I; and near the bottom as Alt-W. 

[lethosor]

Here is an OS X build.

The 0.34.11-r5 branch hasn't been merged back into DFHack/dfhack yet.

The Readme linked in the top post, under "Getting DFHack", links to http://github.com/peterix/dfhack and says releases are announced in http://tinyurl.com/dfhack-ng which redirects to the r3 forum thread.

It's all very confusing.

peterix/dfhack redirects to DFHack/dfhack, the new official repo (the links in the readme are outdated, as is the link in the first post). Expwnent made this release from a branch in expwnent/dfhack, which should be merged back into DFHack/dfhack once someone with write access decides to.

[expwnent]

The links pointed to my repo for things that have changed in this release. There are a few links to the main repo for things that have not changed and for things like the bug tracker, which is one of the places bug reports should go (this thread or the irc channel are also fine). Now that I have write access to the main repo, I switched the links to there. Everything should be fine now.

The readme there is wrong. It's a bug in the documentation.

[FallenAngel]

This, my friends, is going to be Fun.
And Helpful.
And !!Helpful!!.
Dfhack is awesome.
EDIT: Which plugin lets you manage jobs and check emotions? Because it doesn't seem to be on automatically.

EDIT: Which plugin lets you manage jobs and check emotions? Because it doesn't seem to be on automatically.

I believe you're referring to "manipulator" (this is the ASCII version of Therapist, which you get by pressing u l) and "dwarfmonitor", which puts the colored numbers in the lower right corner of the main screen.

[Meph]

I have a question, one that is rather important for MasterworkDF. Especially considering that I myself cannot code C++. Lua I understand a bit by now.

How much cross-compability exists between r4 and r5, and, if any assumptions can be made, how much updating will need to be done for the DF2014 release?

Where the r5 release has 36 scripts in the script folder, Masterwork has 151. If most of them break, a big portion of the mod becomes broken as well.
