Wiki Modifications
Namespace Links
This wiki currently makes use of a MediaWiki patch which automatically directs links from particular namespaces to other specific namespaces unless indicated otherwise - in this case, links in the "DF2012" and "DF2012 Talk" namespaces automatically point to "DF2012", "v0.31" and "v0.31 Talk" point to "v0.31", "40d" and "40d Talk" point to "40d", and "23a" and "23a Talk" point to "23a".
DFRawFunctions
DFRawFunctions is a MediaWiki extension designed for parsing Dwarf Fortress raws. Sources and documentation can be found here.
Fortresses
v0.28.181.40d
- Urdimzatam, Towerclouted - First successful fortress; no real megaprojects to speak of.
- Tathtakunib, Wasprag - First megaproject as monument (23 Z-level clear glass pyramid filled with magma), tower-cap farm, giant cave spider silk farm, automatic obsidian factory implementation (see below).
- Naniratîs, Rhymestakes - First megaproject as actual fortress (47x47x16 cast obsidian tower), complete with self-destruct button.
v0.23.130.23a
- Rigothral, Craftsilvers - First retro-fortress, included a magma flooding device.
- Ceroltishak, Lenstyphoon - Second retro-fortress, used raws with all 40d creatures and plants imported.
v0.31
- Ashmônèrith, Shadelabors - First fortress in version 0.31.

Projects
Dwarf Manipulator
Just like Dwarf Therapist, but using a text-based interface (based on Valdemar's prototype), and it's for Dwarf Fortress v0.23.130.23a. The only other tool available, Dwarf Foreman, was incapable of assigning labors for individual dwarves unless you gave each dwarf its own custom profession. Download here.
2D Forbidder
A tool for Dwarf Fortress v0.23.130.23a which allows manually forbidding/reclaiming, chasming, or melting the currently viewed item, almost just like in the 3D version. Download here.
2D Autoforbid
A tool for Dwarf Fortress v0.23.130.23a which automatically forbids items carried in the inventories of foreign units. Download here.
23a EXE Patches

Generated Raws Extractor
Run rawextract.php and specify your save directory as a parameter (or omit it to use the current working directory) and all generated raws (titans, forgotten beasts, demons, night creatures, inorganics, interactions, etc.) will be written to files in the current directory, named by the object ID. Works with both compressed and uncompressed worlds, with or without active saves.
Body Parser
Run this PHP script and specify your save directory as a parameter (or omit it to use the current working directory) and all creature bodies will be examined for consistency. Warnings about unconnected shoulders, elbows, wrists, hips, knees, and ankles are to be expected on armless/legless creaturesBug:4095, but others may indicate fundamental problems in your creature definitions.
