Date on first post! I know I keep pushing it but please!

0.43.03-r04   2016-08-10

https://github.com/PeridexisErrant/starter-pack/issues/4

I'm definitely thinking about logging the date, but so far other stuff has been higher priority when I have time - doing updates at all, fixing bugs, and so on.  Timestamps are moving up the list though

This is only the DFHack part of it, how do I merge this to the current version?  Simple copy-paste in the current DF Starter pack?

Well, if you are using the upcoming DFHack pre-release for DF v0.43.05 then you wouldn't want to install it into a DF v0.43.03 Starter Pack. But yeah, just decompress DFHack and drag everything in it's folder into the Dwarf Fortress folder. PeridexisErrant mentioned that he might include the upcoming pre-release version of DFHack in a nightly build of his Starter Pack, so you might not have to mess with installing DFHack.

There must be some information somewhere about this but :

You can read the DFHack installation instructions and more here - https://dfhack.readthedocs.io/en/stable/docs/Introduction.html#installing-dfhack

Aye, I'm really excited to try the x64 version...  I'll wait for the 43.05 pre-release

Maltavius might mean the thread title, so new releases would show up at a glance for anyone browsing a list of threads who remembers the previous version/date.

I feel like installing vanilla DF+DFHack would be simplest, although it's certainly a good idea to test with a nightly pack of some kind to cover that pack's settings/customizations if you can.

No, PeridexisErrant knows what I mean

I wouldn't mind knowing what the latest release is just from glancing at the thread

PD, how does the autoupdate work WRT non-browser (ie fully automated)? I've never seemed to be able to get that to auto-d/l & update (I always fallback to manually downloading from browser).. maybe a firewall setting? There's no dialog to say if it's doing anything at all, let alone animations indicating progress etc..

Is an account required for background auto-update? If so, I think you might mention this..

W10 PC BTW, although it didn't work with W7 either IIRC

[jecowa]

I think it just downloads the updated pack from your browser. I don't think it installs the updated version into your current version.

I'd suspect a firewall issue.  You don't need an account; it just checks in the background (at specified times) and if an update is available gets user confirmation before downloading.  It even unzips the new pack for you!  And as of this update, the new pack will ask you and import your saves and most other content.

it does not trigger a download for r04 for me, and it comes with an outdated therapist in r03. can i manually update the therapist? and how?

-nevermind, own stupidity, though one link is bad, the download link at the top works-

OK tks; I'll check FW rules & NoScript settings..

Not sure if this is the correct thread to ask this, but it's driving me nuts.  I'm playing the latest Windows LNP, and I could swear last night I accessed some DFHack extension with an option to set the general minimum item quality for 'decorate item' jobs.  Be darned if I can find it now.  Or have I just started having very vivid DF-related dreams? 

[Snafu]

That's under 'workflow', largely replaced by the vanilla manager now

I used to use workflow constantly until the new manager came out, and this seemed completely unfamiliar to me.  Also, I don't have workflow enabled or any hotkey set...
