Dfterm2 is a remote Dwarf Fortress playing software for multiple users through telnet. It has been replaced by Dfterm3, which has similar functions through an easier-to-use web interface.
On linux
You need to compile the program directly from source. To do so you need to install the following packages:
- ICU development libraries
- Boost development libraries (at least version 1.42)
- OpenSSL development libraries
- CMake
- PCRE development libraries
- g++ and usual development tools
- lua ( > 5.1 Doesn't work) (use 5.0)
- git
First, you need to obtain the source code, using the following commands in git:
$ git clone git://genodeen.net/dfterm2 $ cd dfterm2 $ git submodule init $ git submodule update
Next, you have to use CMake to configure the building system:
$ cmake .
Thirdly, use this command to start the compiling:
$ make
If compilation failed, visit the DFterm2 page on the Bay12 forums for support.
The final step is to add an administrator account using
$ ./dfterm2_configure --adduser (username) (password) admin $ ./dfterm2
To connect to the server from a linux machine, you need to use the following command:
$ telnet 127.0.0.1 8000
