Holy shit, I think I just spotted my problem, why did it take posting a screen to find this?

D:\dwarfortress

should be

D:\dwarffortress

I don't know whether to laugh or cry if this was the only thing necessary to fix this

New problem! It seems I can't get dfterm2 to keep hold of a instance of DF, because windows does not want to play nice with DF's text mode!

That, is confusing!

I suspected a fundamental disconnect somewhere, that's why I had you post it. That's also also why I asked you to include the directory it was in but it seems you found it on your own.

What option are you referring to? Print mode? Mine is at the default 2d. I think text is only for linux and mac consoles.

I seem to be having trouble getting dfterm2 to start in WinXP. Is there something I need in order for it to run on xp? I had no problems on 7.

So, is anyone running a server for this?

I would also very much like to know!

I made a custom font using my favorite 16x16 tileset for use in putty using this script http://kmkeen.com/df2ttf/ (thanks keenerd). When you use it with dfterm2 it makes the putty connection look 90% exactly like playing dwarf fortress locally. It's freaking awesome. To make it look 100% the same the colors in putty need to be adjusted. If anyone knows what needs to be set to what or where to find out that would be much appreciated.

You just drop this into C:/windows/fonts and set putty to use it when you connect to dfterm2 at size 12. It is basically the Marble Dice tileset with some modifications I made for engraved walls and floors and a small fix where rivers didn't match up perfectly.

There is this site: http://cityofminds.info/dfmp/registry.php

but of course there are none up now. I had one running, but I tried to move it to a Linux Server (with no luck...)

Is there any way to make this run with 0.34.11?

[Kav]

Paste this in your dfterm2.conf in the "addresses = { "section and it works great.

{ name = "DF 0.34.11", size_address = 0x0089A0F4, screendata_address = 0x00899D94, checksum = 0xD09EF39B, method = "PackedVarying" }

And how do I add that to the .conf File?

[thistleknot]

wow... his doc really sets you up for error here

This should point directly to the Dwarf Fortress executable file. OnWindows, it could be something like "C:\df_31_12_win\Dwarf%
Fortress.exe" and on Linux it could be "/home/mikko/df_linux/df"
% character is used as an escape character for certain patterns. To include a space bar in the executable name, use "% " (like in
the Windows example in previous paragraph). Otherwise a space character is a separator for executable name and argument list.

note

"% "
vs
"%"

the return carriage threw me off in the pdf

had to re-read a few times to see the space

no quotes btw

[thistleknot]

I get dfterm2 to start up a new game, but it immediately closes (dwarf fortress does, not the terminal app)

FIXED:

Problem was I added this

{ name = "DF 0.34.11", size_address = 0x0089A0F4, screendata_address = 0x00899D94, checksum = 0xD09EF39B, method = "PackedVarying" }

OUTSIDE of the last curly brace vs INSIDE.  I didn't notice there were 2 definitions already within the outer curly braces, and I needed to add a 3rd.
