Wiki Modifications

Namespace Links

This wiki currently makes use of a MediaWiki patch which automatically directs links from particular namespaces to other specific namespaces unless indicated otherwise - in this case, links in the "DF2012" and "DF2012 Talk" namespaces automatically point to "DF2012", "v0.31" and "v0.31 Talk" point to "v0.31", "40d" and "40d Talk" point to "40d", and "23a" and "23a Talk" point to "23a".

DFRawFunctions

DFRawFunctions is a MediaWiki extension designed for parsing Dwarf Fortress raws. Sources and documentation can be found here.

Fortresses

v0.28.181.40d

  • Urdimzatam, Towerclouted - First successful fortress; no real megaprojects to speak of.
  • Tathtakunib, Wasprag - First megaproject as monument (23 Z-level clear glass pyramid filled with magma), tower-cap farm, giant cave spider silk farm, automatic obsidian factory implementation (see below).
  • Naniratîs, Rhymestakes - First megaproject as actual fortress (47x47x16 cast obsidian tower), complete with self-destruct button.

v0.23.130.23a

  • Rigothral, Craftsilvers - First retro-fortress, included a magma flooding device.
  • Ceroltishak, Lenstyphoon - Second retro-fortress, used raws with all 40d creatures and plants imported.

v0.31

  • Ashmônèrith, Shadelabors - First fortress in version 0.31.
  • Sobìrilral, Releasetreaty - Second fortress in version 0.31. Used a spiral ramp for access until it turned out to be significantly slower than just using stairs.

Projects

Dwarf Fortress 0.23.130.23a

Version 0.23.130.23a was quite different from the game as it exists today - it lacked many of the features present in the game today, but it had numerous gameplay elements that have since been discarded.

Dwarf Manipulator

Just like Dwarf Therapist, but using a text-based interface (based on Valdemar's prototype). The only other tool available, Dwarf Foreman, was incapable of assigning labors for individual dwarves unless you gave each dwarf its own custom profession. Download here. Also available as a DFHack plugin.

2D Forbidder

A tool which allows manually forbidding/reclaiming, chasming, or melting the currently viewed item, almost just like in the 3D version. Download here. Also available as a DFHack-23a plugin.

2D Autoforbid

A tool which automatically forbids items carried in the inventories of foreign units. Download here.

EXE Patches

A few hex-edits to the game's executable to alter its behavior in beneficial ways and/or fix bugs:

DFHack-40d

A port of modern DFHack for Dwarf Fortress version 0.28.181.40d (NOT any of Baughn's OpenGL-optimized versions, such as 40d19), including most of the common (and meaningful) DFHack plugins along with Lua scripting. Not yet complete, but sources can be found here if you want to play around with it.

Note that this version does not load automatically on startup - instead, you must run a separate "dfhack.exe" loader to load the DLL and inject the necessary hooks.

However, the following binary patches can be applied in order to make DFHack load automatically on startup:

DFHack-23a

The same as DFHack-40d, but for Dwarf Fortress version 0.23.130.23a. Compared to DFHack-40d, even less is available (for obvious reasons), but sources can be found here if you want to play around with it.

In order to use this, you must apply all of the binary patches above which are marked as "REQUIRED for DFHack".

Binary patch for auto-loading on startup:

  • 0x0B7D0B: 41 C6 05 -> 23 72 29

Scripts

Generated Raws Extractor

Run rawextract.php and specify your save directory as a parameter (or omit it to use the current working directory) and all generated raws (titans, forgotten beasts, demons, night creatures, inorganics, interactions, etc.) will be written to files in the current directory, named by the object ID. Works with both compressed and uncompressed worlds, with or without active saves, from Dwarf Fortress versions 0.31.01 and later.

Body Parser

Run parsebody.php and specify your save directory as a parameter (or omit it to use the current working directory) and all creature bodies will be examined for consistency. Warnings about unconnected shoulders, elbows, wrists, hips, knees, and ankles are to be expected on armless/legless creaturesBug:4095, but others may indicate fundamental problems in your creature definitions.

23a Text Utility

Run wtf23a.php and specify a command, input file, and output file in order to manipulate the various data files used by Dwarf Fortress version 0.23.130.23a and older.
