I play DF without any mods, I really can't find any that work for this version.

Always use LNP. Always. So I'd recommend waiting until the v.0.43.02 LNP is out.

LNP makes changing graphics incredibly easy. I vote for Pheobus, it's easy to read.Also use TWBT, it makes it a lot easier to read actual text.

I'm voting for all utilities being okay, save outright DFHack cheating. Visualizers are fine (e.g., Armok Vision and Stonesense), gameplay helpers and organizational aids are okay (like Dwarf Therapist), and autodump and other DFHack commands are okay (but not autodump destroy), since they're something you could do anyway if you had way too much time on your hands.
you can use autodump to take all weapons and armor off invaders. you can use autodump to drop near-infinite anvils on keas. you can use autodump to take things out of aquifers. you can use autodump to move 500 slade boulders in 0 seconds.
autodump is an extremely powerful tool. therefore autodump is not "something you could do anyway if you had way too much time on your hands."

anyways, would anyone else be interested in starting the game, seeing as the original poster seems to be gone?

I'm fine using the Starter Pack, I don't feel it's necessary to wait for .43 but they may get it updated fairly quickly. In extension, as you say, that means we can change graphics packs with ease so it may help to do screen shots in ASCII so it's easy for community members in general to read.

I would be interested although graphics packs are not something I've touched

I'd love to participate. This is would be my first succession fort. I do know enough to not have my dwarfs die in droves but if I'm inheriting a complete mess, who knows?

You might be waiting forever, since PeredixisErrant released LNP for 43.03, meaning .02 might very well be ignored.

Posting interest, have Player two forts and one survived a necromancer siege on year one but I have never approached lava or the third cavern layer so I think I'm noob enough :P
