The Starter Pack has updated to 0.43.05-r07!
As usual, you can get it here.

This fixes the PyLNP bug, which was due to a broken build step upstream, and also the DFHack install issue.  (the latter was probably my scripts; I managed to reproduce it once and then it vanished before I made any changes...)

Anyway, back to striking the Earth 

0.43.05-r07
 - updated PyLNP to 0.12c (fixes broken build process)

SHA256:  d3781ad9f1a6b5164c373c0a532c33351de3e9a62d7b8942e9dcc7b223bcdc91

If you want to say thanks, check out Toady's Patreon, or even mine!

Thank you for creating this. I'm not a newb but I just feel like downloading this and not having to bother with downloading all the utilities by myself.
A queastion: will there be any problems if I move a save from my current DF game into the Starter Pack?

It's perfectly safe to copy your save, as long as you don't move to an earlier version of DF - which is impossible at the moment    And just to be safe, you can keep your old version until you've checked that the new one works or even forever.

How would you feel about Armok Vision automatically updating is DFHack plugin?

[PeridexisErrant]

Nervous.  I'd be willing if users explicitly opt-in, but otherwise not keen.

[Rose]

I can have it explicitly ask, with a never ask again option.

thank you all, i can finally play dwarf fortress again.

[PeridexisErrant]

Have two parts - on first run, user selects frequency of update check (eg. every time/daily/weekly/monthly/never); then when an update is available it gets automatically downloaded and seeks user approval before install.

You are selecting the right folder. It's not working for me either, which is strange because it was working for me when I was running from source. And the importer code hasn't changed any since then.

I was reading stackoverflow, and it says that "or" sometimes doesn't do anything. Maybe that's the trouble here. Here's the relevant lines of code from the importer py:

Code: [Select]

    if not (os.path.isdir(src_prefix) or os.path.dirname(src_prefix)):
        # parent dir is a real path, even when os.path.commonprefix isn't
        msg = 'Can only import content from single basedir'

I'm wondering if maybe it's only checking that "os.path.isdir(src_prefix)" and completely ignoring the "os.path.dirname(src_prefix)".

That statoverflow question is 3 years old. Maybe this was a bug in an older version of Python that has since been fixed. And maybe the bundled version of Python is out-of-date. This would explain why it might only work properly when running from source, anyway.

Sorry, if this is stupid and doesn't make any sense at all. I'm not a programmer.

I'm having this same error with "Can only import content from single basedir"

I don't have my py enviorn set up on this machine, and its been a while since i tried to code in py anyway, but is this a parentheses error? Should it be

 if not ( (os.path.isdir(src_prefix) or os.path.dirname(src_prefix)) ):

That is, is the correct eval for
NOT (A OR B)
or is the correct eval for
(NOT(A)) OR (B)

[Rose]

Oh, this isn't checking online, it just compares the bundled plugin with the plugin that's installed with DFhack.

God, I tried labormanager and can't go back. It's like crack.
But I'm having that same issue after the 43.05-r05 update, with the mousequery not being able to drag and showing the green cursor.

lethosor, I know this is old and you already said how to fix it, but I can't find the 43.05-r01 pack in the wicked-code archive, he only has 43.05-r04 stored there.
So if I read right, if you revert those 3 files (automaterial.plug.dll, mousequery.plug.dll, and resume.plug.dll) to what was found in 43.05-r01, it should fix those 2 'bugs' I'm experiencing?
Can I find the old release on github?

You want the version of those plugins provided by TwbT, and compatible with DFHack 43.05-r01, not my pack with that version (which didn't include DFHack).

TLDR; if you're behind r07 of my pack upgrading should fix the problem - please report a bug otherwise!

PeridexisErrant! ty for all of the fun. When you take a vacation, update your sig to show over 1M downloads
Your tutorial helped me a ton too.

Anyway, I am on 43.05-r07 and still having that problem, had it since r05 so I went to 43.03
So, where do you want bug reports sent?
(yes, using those files from the 43.05-r01 twbt release fixed both issues)

[PeridexisErrant]

You're welcome, of course!

Small bug reports here; large bug reports etc can go to my handle at gmail if that's more convenient.  Thanks!
(I suspect I'm going to have to add an extra stage to the build for integrity checks, ugh.)

[Stryfe]

Nothing new to add; just registered to the forums after a lot of lurking and wanted my first post to be thanking your efforts to bring this awesome gem to, well, newbs like me.

(I should probably be thanking Toady in the first place, but I think there's no topic for that )
