v0.31:Utilities

Template:AV Please only list utilities that are known to work with the newest version here.

Here are third party applications developed for Dwarf Fortress.

Dwarf Fortress File Depot

The Dwarf Fortress File Upload Service - an excellent place to store mods, community games, tilesets and other files. Courtesy of Janus; for files related to Dwarf Fortress only.

Reveal

Reveal (or Reveal.exe as it is commonly referred to) is a program that runs alongside Dwarf Fortress and shows all "unexplored" or "undug" tiles of the map (in fortress mode). To reveal entire map designate the entire bottom level to be mined and then remove designation before running reveal (Not required in the latest version using the parameters below, simply start the .exe file.). Playing on revealed map might (read "will") cause some bugs (like not being able to build magma buildings or a tower-cap farm, losing all plants/trees on the map, and a lot more). Using Reveal has been known to corrupt saved game folders. and, as such, it is highly recommended to only use Reveal to preview a biome's layout and then restart without running Reveal.

There are two versions of Reveal, one for Vista and newer, one for XP and older.

The new version of Reveal.exe (Reveal2) is in public beta, you can find it here Reveal2. Please report problems in 0x517A5D's Talk page.

Pasting the following code into reveal2.ini makes it work for the newest (DF2010) version of Dwarf Fortress:

;; DF2010 31.02
[4BBDF378]
map_data=0x016ad718
map_x_count=0x016ad738
map_y_count=0x016ad73c
map_z_count=0x016ad740

[4BB45F99] can be substituted in for 31.01.

However, do not save your game, it can mess up many things including civilisations (Giant Toad and Cave Crocodile civilisations, you will also embark with those if it should occur.)

Dwarf Therapist

Dwarf Therapist gives you an advanced GUI to manage and check dwarf job allocations, military assignments, statistics (such as attributes, personality traits and happiness), plus sort dwarves by various criteria (eg. profession, migration wave etc.) and generally manage the Dwarven Resources of your fortress in a very convenient way.

Please note that this version of Dwarf Therapist is a temporary fix to provide basic compatibility for 0.31.01, and as such most of the usual features do not work. See the Bay12 forum thread for more info.
