New alpha release. This release fixes a few bugs with the old release.

You forgot the Linux and Mac binaries. There's only a windows binary in the release.

[lethosor]

Not everyone can build on all systems. I generally try to wait for all binaries to be available, but that didn't happen this time. I'll be able to build and put them up in an hour and a half or so.
Edit: They're up now: https://github.com/DFHack/dfhack/releases/tag/0.42.06-alpha2

[expwnent]

Got a few more questions (my apologies if this is annoying to anyone here) about if there are scrips that enable me to do certain things. I suspect the answer to all might be no, but...

1) Is it possible to make, say, a flamethrower that consumes ammunition? (I know that item-trigger allows me to simulate the flamethrower, but no idea on the ammo)

2) Is it possible to make a custom siege weapon (without making it a workshop that gives material-emission interactions)?

3) Is there a way to assign gods created through moddable-gods to specific entities? (and do those gods even do any actions in worldgen?)

1. A flamethrower that consumes ammunition would be hard to do. I'd make it work like a crossbow and make DFHack periodically create fire around the projectile. The problem would be making sure that it only uses a special type of ammunition and not bolts. I'm not sure how to do that.

2. What do you want it to do?

3. Not yet (unless you do it yourself with an lua script), and no. They are created after worldgen.

[Teneb]

2. What do you want it to do?

Just fire projectiles, I suppose.

Anyway, thanks for the answers. I should probably learn lua.

Can someone help me to get dfhack to run on gentoo linux x64
I get the tileset not found error on dfhack, but df works fine.
I had it fixed once... but I cannot seem to get it to work anymore.

df 42.06
dfhack 42.06 alpha2
twbt 5.5.8

running sh -x dfhack produces the following

Are you saying the df script works?

[devek]

Now that dwarfs socialize as a job instead of going on break, can someone make the "Idlers" count useful in 42?

[Rumrusher]

it's been awhile so I don't know if this is old news but I just found out dfhack made sites if set to player fort will pop up in the menu for fort mode now.
so you can reclaim a site work on by an adventurer now.

That's doable.

Quick question: is it possible to change artifact names with DFHack?  It looks like they're stored in a separate data structure (artifacts have a ref that gives an artifact ID) but I couldn't find anything in the docs about it.

EDIT: Whoop, I'm an idiot, sorry.  Guess I should've searched the thread, first: df.artifact_record.find(artifact id) in the lua interface.  If I could delete this post I would
DOUBLE-EDIT: For anyone else looking for this information: parts_of_speech in the artifact record indicates which variation of the word in that slot you're using.  So, changing this allows you to use word forms in positions they wouldn't normally be allowed, like plural nouns in the adjective slot.

[Putnam]

no, definitely keep it, if you had a problem then other people might and now you have a searchable post with an easy solution

Just had an interesting spasm from DFHack.  Version is the one from 42.06.01 Win LazyNewbPack.  I was just setting up some flooring when I got the following in the DFHack window in red text: (pulled from stderr.log)

Code: [Select]

error in __gc metamethod (bad argument #1 to '?' (FILE* expected, got userdata))
table: 38614F00

I really gotta update artifake and figure out what happened with names that makes it not wanna work sometimes. I did add in the specific -item flag for artifacts, real or fake, though.

[PeridexisErrant]

For my own curiosity, what's left to fix that makes DFHack 42.06-alpha2 a pre-release version?  Known bugs, things not in structure, or what?

[lethosor]

We don't know exactly. The main purpose of the alpha releases is for people to be able to test and report issues that need fixing. It seems to be working better than what we did before (that is, trying to test as much as we could on our own and then making a normal release), which is nice.

Wow, that looks pretty serious. What DFHack tools have you been using (particularly any third-party ones)? Did you replace lua.dll or something? Is it reproducible?
