There any chance in hell this will run on OSX 10.5.8?

If you follow the Mac OS X build instructions, you might be able to get it to work, but I can't promise anything. Leopard is pretty old—and if you're trying to get it to work on a PowerPC machine, you're almost certainly out of luck.

Recently, I've been working on an interesting project: porting "modern" DFHack to older versions of Dwarf Fortress. About a week ago I successfully got it running in version 0.28.181.40d (not any of the "OpenGL optimized" versions), and several days ago I got it running in version 0.23.130.23a (the final 2D version).

Just as with version 0.34, it loads into DF's address space, but it does not load on startup - instead, a separate "loader" application needs to be run after starting DF so it can inject code to load itself and insert several hooks. Sometimes DF crashes during this (possibly from it suspending DF while it's executing an instruction that's about to be patched), though most of the time it works just fine.

Full Lua scripting is supported, though existing scripts are unlikely to be compatible, and Ruby scripting is probably even less reliable (especially in 23a). Existing plugins have been altered to work where possible (and where it actually makes sense), while others have been removed. Stonesense is not available at this time, though I'd like to see if I can get it working eventually.

If you're interested, you can try out these test builds:
* DFHack-40d
* DFHack-23a

Would anyone explain the steps to compile Windows plugins to be used in OSX?

[Rose]

Pretty sure none of the plugins are 'windows' per se, and just get compiled for whichever OS DFhack is compiled for, at the same time.

[falsefaith]

There are these plugins here: http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=119575.0

They only works with windows dfhack at the moment and need to be compiled to work with OSX and I do not really understand that process.

[danaris]

Without looking too deeply into it, my guess would be you should clone the git repo into the plugins/ subdirectory of the DFHack source directory, then just build DFHack as normal and it should pick them up automatically.

Hi,

i got a little problem here

i'm using de lazynewbpack for version 0.34.11, i downloaded the DFhack for 34.11 r2 and unzip it so it can have the new revision, besides that, i also used the Legends of Forlorn Realms mod in it too,  here's the problem:

i use DFusion embark multirace embark, it always have only 1 dwarf to start, so i use the simple embark to have 7, my race starts alway as kobolds (don't know why) so i change them to dwarf, after this i save run current world's init.lua (i asume it save my new changes, but apparently it does not) and i embark, i always have 2 dwarves, the rest ant man/women, how do i stop the antmen/women to appear? my embark are all dwarves, elves and humans, not antman?

see dfusion/embark/races.txt thats where you set which races units to embark with.

eh, did that already, was the first thing i did actually, yet, i still have ant women each time i embark

Where can I find the description for 'body_component_info'?
See https://github.com/angavrilov/df-structures/blob/master/df.units.xml for reference.

My current lua code is as follows:

Code: [Select]

unit=dfhack.gui.getSelectedUnit()
if unit==nil then
print ("No unit under cursor!  Aborting with extreme prejudice.")
return
end

printall(unit.body.components)
Compounds like unit_wound are documented, but I can't seem to find the documentation for body_component_info.

I've been trying to build DFHack on linux, and I'm having a few problems.

First problem: when trying to run cmake, I get

Code: [Select]

-- Could NOT find Threads (missing:  Threads_FOUND)
-- Configuring done
-- Generating done
-- Build files have been written to: /home/expwnent/df/dfhack/build
and when I try to "make install" I get

Code: [Select]

[ 15%] Built target lua
Linking CXX shared library libprotobuf.so
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lz
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[2]: *** [depends/protobuf/libprotobuf.so] Error 1
make[1]: *** [depends/protobuf/CMakeFiles/protobuf.dir/all] Error 2
make: *** [all] Error 2



I followed the instructions as best I could, but I couldn't get it to work. I also tried getting it to work on windows, but that also ran into problems. Any help on what I'm doing wrong would be appreciated.

I am having this same problem (the second half anyway) when I do make install after using cmake. Has anyone found a solution?

EDIT: It seems like it is trying to parse option flags as a file to look for, so where can I find the call to this so I can check to see if it is being called correctly?

EDIT2: Looks like I just did not have all the dev libraries I needed

had to add:

• lib32z1-dev
• libxml-libxslt-perl

The "z" in "-lz" isn't an option flag, but a library name - it tells it to include "libz".
