Damn that took me a long time to get running.

For Windows Vista, I can't run the game unless I'm running it under administrator. Try running Dwarf Therapist as administrator; it seemed to've stopped all my woes.

Here's offsets for 40d15: http://dethware.org/df/d15.ini

[Taritus]

Any chance there'll you could get the 40d16 ones, peterix?

[peterix]

Didn't expect it would be released so soon after d15... here it is. I hope it works.

Thanks a lot; I hate playing without Dwarf Therapist.

Hold on to your hats, those of you who know what /proc is.

First successful linux build, showing dwarfs from a game of d15 on linux! I'm forwarding an X session from my Ubuntu box to Vista, so it has a Vista window border, but the rest is all X11.

GCC likes to organize jusssst a bit differently than MSVC, so it took longer than I thought to find the right code spots. But soon enough, DT will have gone native on both Windows and Linux. No wine hacks, no .NET shenanigans, just lovely C++

Coming soon to a shell near you!

DT Linux Version a Play in One Act

ME: Hey kernel, let me talk to that process.
TUX: Uh.. ok but only 4 bytes at a time.
ME: Yeah ok whatever.
PTRACE_ATTACH
READ /proc/pid/mem!
TUX: OH NO!
ME: OWNED!

Seems to, from the standpoint of a winXP user. Thanks! That was nice and prompt. And for a while I was worried I'd have to put my DFing on hold.

how exactly do i install this, because when i just copy it to my etc folder and rename it and copy the hash, ik get an erroor saying therapist doesn't know how to talk to DF

You have to be sure to add the line 0x4A9B1A72 = v0.28.181.40d16 to the game_data.ini

Also, if you are running Vista, sometimes you have to go in and cancel explorer.exe, run it from task manager, then you can start up Dwarf Therapist without problem.

So, no one ever responded to my earlier question. Is it possible to make a self-contained version of this program which I could run at work? I'm clearly missing some common .dll file or something but I have no idea which one.

I have not forgotten your plight, forsaken. I have been really caught up in the Linux port lately and have not gotten back to you. I am sorry for that.

However, I did do some digging based on your particular problem, and I think it's very solvable. The problem is I built the Qt library in such a way that it depends on MSVCR90.DLL. I just need to rebuild DT's three dependencies so they don't rely on the new VCR but use an older one from the XP days. Then it's just a matter of packaging it up and shipping it. However the build process for Qt takes about 4 hours on my machine and I just keep putting it off since it clearly falls into the "not fun" category.

I'll get to it, I promise

No worries, I'm not in any hurry I just wanted to know if it's something you will consider. Anything beyond 20 dwarves becomes almost unmanageable without a program like this.

Why can't you put msvcr90.dll in the local directory? I thought all windows programs will search the local directory (same dir the executable is in) as a library path first before looking in the windows dir...
