Dfterm

Daoist: F-keys work, actually.

Dfterm is a tool to run dwarf fortress via a terminal so multiple people can connect and join in.

See the bay 12 forum thread here: [http://www.bay12games.com/forum/index.php?topic=50643.0 Dfterm forum thread].

==Setup==

To get it up and running quickly, unpack the zip file and copy the dfterm_injection_glue.dll file to your dfort directory. Run dwarfort.exe and then run dfterm.exe. Dfterm will detect your running dfort and hook up. You should be ready to go.

==Client Programs==

Connect to dfterm via any terminal emulator. A popular one for windows is [http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html Putty]. You will have to change some settings.

==Connection Info==

{| border="1"
|+ Default Connection settings
|-
! Item !! Setting
|-
| Host || (your hostname or IP address)
|-
| Port || 8000
|-
| Protocol || Telnet
|-
| Encoding || UTF-8
|-
| Rows || At least 25, better with 35+
|-
| Columns || At least 80, better with 100+
|-
|}

If you want to play over the internet, you will have to set up port forwarding on your home router.

==Known Problems==

* Some text is way too dark
** In Putty go into the window > colors menu and change the values for ANSI black bold to higher numbers. 120-120-120 looks alright.
* The numpad +/- buttons don't work
** You can [[Laptop_keyboard|remap them]].
* Shift+arrows and Shift+enter don't work.
* There is no authentication.
** This will be addressed in a future release.

Please only list utilities that are known to work with the newest version here.

The Dwarf Fortress File Upload Service - an excellent place to store mods, community games, tilesets and other files. Courtesy of [[User:Janus|Janus]]; for files related to Dwarf Fortress only.

== [http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=645 Reveal] ==

Reveal (or Reveal.exe as it is commonly referred to) is a program that runs alongside Dwarf Fortress and shows all "unexplored" or "undug" tiles of the map (in fortress mode). To reveal entire map designate the entire bottom level to be mined and then remove designation before running reveal (Not required in the latest version using the parameters below, simply start the .exe file.). Playing on revealed map might ''(read "will")'' cause some bugs (like not being able to build magma buildings or a tower-cap farm, losing all plants/trees on the map, and a lot more). '''Using Reveal has been known to corrupt saved game folders.''' and, as such, it is highly recommended to only use Reveal to preview a biome's layout and then restart without running Reveal.

There are two versions of Reveal, one for Vista and newer, one for XP and older.

The new version of Reveal.exe (Reveal2) is in public beta, you can find it here [http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=1044 Reveal2]. Please report problems in [[User_talk:0x517A5D|0x517A5D's Talk page]].

Pasting the following code into reveal2.ini makes it work for the newest (DF2010) version of Dwarf Fortress:

<pre>
;; DF2010 31.02
[4BBDF378]
map_data=0x016ad718
map_x_count=0x016ad738
map_y_count=0x016ad73c
map_z_count=0x016ad740
</pre>
[4BB45F99] can be substituted in for 31.01.

However, do '''not''' save your game, it can mess up many things including civilisations (Giant Toad and Cave Crocodile civilisations, you will also embark with those if it should occur.)

==[http://www.bay12games.com/forum/index.php?topic=39229.msg1136017#msg1136017 Dwarf Therapist]==

Dwarf Therapist gives you an advanced GUI to manage and check dwarf job allocations, military assignments, statistics (such as attributes, personality traits and happiness), plus sort dwarves by various criteria (eg. profession, migration wave etc.) and generally manage the Dwarven Resources of your fortress in a very convenient way.

Please note that this version of Dwarf Therapist is a temporary fix to provide basic compatibility for 0.31.01, and as such most of the usual features do not work. See the Bay12 forum thread for more info.
