config utility?  I'm guessing you are talking about the MDF Launcher?  Its written in VB. and if you checked the github for MMDF 1.29 you can find it there.

That's all well and good but it isn't really ethical to continue collecting patreon donations in the interim.

People can stop donating whenever they want.
Of course they can, and many have. Most of his money comes from two people pledging at the $40/month tier. The fact that they could stop the pledge at any point doesn't mean it's right to continue taking their money.

If these two decide that they wish to support his bike endeavours, in gratitude for what he's already done, for any other reason, or for even no reason at all, then there's nothing wrong or "unethical" with him taking these donations. They're all voluntary, his mod is in a playable state for the previous version last I checked, and he DID say that he's going on the trip round the various countries, and that updates will halt to pretty much nill. He ain't pointing a gun to anyone's head, is he?

I have to disagree with you. He made no such post that I am aware of on his Patreon. His last post was on December 9th, 2016 when he released version 1.23. It states that 'next week' he will be doing another bugfix and balance update and adding new content. Nowhere in his patreon posts is it indicated that he's leaving.

He's well within his rights to pursue his biking, obviously. His patreon though is for (quoting here) "tl;dr: Masterwork DF. Weekly updates. Every Friday. Support it. Thanks.". That is on the front page. It does not mention "also supporting my biking hobby". If he wanted to open a patreon for people to donate to his biking, that would be fine too but if he no longer plans to support the masterwork patreon for the time being (as it has been nearly a year now with no word) then he should pause it until he picks it up again. You can easily suspend patreons and then resume them.

Instead he's chosen to continue receiving money donations for something he's not doing, for a year. If any other charity or donation-fed organization did that, they'd be burned at the stake. It's unethical.

Got a message from Clément today, who took over DwarfTherapist from Splinterz. He was still missing profession icons, so I finished the missing icons for him.



Not perfectly happy with them, but 16x16 is hard to work with. Or rather 12x12, since they need a background icon within the icon.  ::)

So, once the 43.03 and 43.05 versions are finished, do you have any plans for the version 44.02+ version is of dwarf fortress(now that raiding is actually a thing in Dwarf Fortress)?

Not sure if raiding can be done with raw modding. But I'll release a 44. version for sure, once dfhack fully works.

Nono, raiding was added to the base game.

I know, but I don't think it can be affected with raws, or can it? Aka modded content that changes or adds to the new raiding mechanic.
