You could try passing 'wb' to zf.open(). Neither of those files seem to decode to valid index files, by the way - your correct one is missing an "=" at the end, and I have no idea what's wrong with the second one.

I keep getting crashes on the 40.24-r20 version of your pack. I only use Dwarf Therapist, Soundsense and DFHack Workflow and Performance Tweaks additions if that helps.
Crashes seem to be at kind of random times, though they are less often than on r19 when i used Workflow as well. The last crash I just had was while saving.

Edit: I am running on Win7 64 bit

[lethosor]

Does "on a save" mean while saving or while you had a save loaded?

[GaenaralHONK]

I meant while saving

I see you don't even bother updating the title anymore. Understandable.

[Cruxador]

The Starter Pack has updated to 0.42.01-r03!  As usual, you can get it here.

Would be cool to update the thread title then, I only swung by to see if there was an ETA.

If you look back to where PeridexisErrant first posted the new versions of each major update to DF, he doesn't update the thread title or the first page until the new build is relatively stable -and- Dwarf Therapist and DFHack are in the Pack, since those are the most essential utilities for new folks (and not new folks, I don't start using the new version until I have DT and DFHack)

So... wait for it, and it will happen. But being sarcastic and disrespectful ("I see you don't bother...") will not make anything faster, just make you look like an unpleasant person who is ungrateful for all the work so many people put into updating this pack.

[PeridexisErrant]

The thread title will be updated once I judge the new pack stable, at which point I'll also move it to the main DFFD page.  Until then, you can create a DFFD account and get email updates about watched files if keeping up with this thread is too painful.

Thanks again for your contribution.  Frankly, I wouldn't have ever toughed it out enough to learn DF without the starter pack.

Crossing fingers that DFhack gets its update soon!

I haven't gotten any visitors since switching to the Windows LNP.  Is anyone else experiencing that, or am I just getting unlucky?

IMHO, Dwarf Fortress is neigh unmanageable without Dwarf Therapist, at least with anything approaching 20+ dwarves so good on PeridexisErrant for waiting for stability and support from this utility. 

DT with the ability to have predefined roles (Soldier, Farmer, Drudges, Nobility, Craftsdwarves, etc.) makes it /LOADS/ easier to manage your dwarves on a macro-scale, going micro for the few exceptions to general rules. 

Keep up the good work, and we await your pleasure on the new toys!

Installing tile packs doesn't seem to work for 40_24 r20. I applied a bunch of different ones one at a time but nothing actually updated and I'm stuck with ASCII.

Thanks to the TwbT plugin, all the menus use ASCII text - but the map area will still use the graphics you've chosen.

The Starter Pack has updated to 0.42.02-r02!  As usual for the cutting-edge pack, you can get it here.

This is really Fricy's update:  it's his excellent work maintaining and updating other people's graphics packs that have made this possible.  When I went through file by file, checking all the other updates and changes I've seen over the last week - from six people over four packs, plus the DF updates - every single upgrade had already been integrated.  So Strike the Earth - and if you're using a graphics pack, think of Fricy!

0.42.02-r02
 - using Fricy's graphics repo again; all packs from 40.24 are back
 - data/index problem vanished; was a heisenbug? (hotfixed for r01)

For those interested, the blocks to this becoming the stable/mainline pack are Dwarf Therapist, DFHack + TwbT, and remaining DF bugs.  Everything else is done!

I'm really glad that Mayday is working again. That's been my go to set since the tutorial. Now the only thing I'm waiting on are the things you mentioned above. With DFHack and Dwarf Therapist, I'll be ready to jump in and brave the remaining bugs. This will be my first game with my drastically better new computer, so I think that's going to really improve things as well.
