Exported wealth is under the memory value of 01617200, and is 4 bytes large. use a memory modification utility and set it to 500 and done, humans and elves will come.
your welcome DF Dwarf Mode Discussion peeps C:
EDIT: just extra info just in case: i used cheat engine to do this
EDIT 2: Yup, the address is universal on at least windows

Yeah that solution was also posted in the thread about this problem. It doesn't really help me though, I have no idea how to make a memory editor, and would be somewhat wary of using that for stability worries.

There's an easier fix to make human caravans come by some simple save raw editing which also works for that purpose, posted in I think the what's going on in your fort thread.

Is there a wiki on how to do this? :s I feel a bit demoralized now when it was revealed to me that my game essentially won't progress unless I somehow fix this bug. I've never edited the raws so I have no idea where to start with and stuff. Should I just wait until the next version is released and then import my save which I made a backup of into it?

Just add [PROGRESS_TRIGGER_POPULATION:1] somewhere near [PROGRESS_TRIGGER_TRADE:1] under humans ([ENTITY:PLAINS]) in your save's entity_default.txt. They'll start arriving after you have 20 dwarves.

If you're unsure how to use a memory editor, the way I did it is via Cheat Engine.

Download it, run it, and click the flashing icon.  Search for the dwarf fortress process and select it.

Near the bottom right, click the 'add address manually' button.  Add the memory address of the exported wealth value and hit OK.

Now, in the far right of the new entry on the bottom that says "0", replace with some big arbitrary value.  The moment you hit OK on the new value, it should appear in the DF window where exported wealth is. 


Now, the value OP gave didn't work for me, I had 0236F260 as my exported wealth memory address (windows 7 64 bit system).  I don't know how reliable it is to give an address like that, since I haven't a clue if they'd be the same for other people. 

So!  To find yours without a problem, enter your Imported Wealth value into the barabove the "exact value" button.  Hit first scan, and you should get a couple of results on the left window pane.  Double click those to add them to the bottom area.  Now, experimentally change the values by a little bit, watching the Imported wealth value in DF to see which entry is the actual value.  Once you've located it (make sure you return any other changed values to their original numbers), left of where the value is, double click the address.  Add 8 to the address to get to the exported wealth's address.  Remember this value is in hexadecimal, so my final numbers which were ~258 become ~260 when adding 8.

Change the value of this new thing (which should be 0) and the changes should be reflected in DF's exported wealth number.

I did it dwarfy by editing the entity_default.txt.  Gets me caravans and a baron.  But I might have to poke into the memory because I cant see a way to get a monarch thru the text file alone.

Be careful with things like Cheat Engine though. If you forget to shut it down, it can be detected as a cheat by Steam or other services.

Not to nitpick, but shouldn't the title of this thread say "you're" instead of "your"?

No. He demands that you welcome him.
