DFHack 0.43.05-alpha1

latest releases: 50.14-r1.1, 50.14-r1, 50.13-r5...
pre-release8 years ago

This release has some support for 0.43.05. 32-bit support should be about as good as it was in 0.43.03, while 64-bit support is somewhat more experimental. Please report issues that you encounter. It's especially helpful if you can try to reproduce them with both 32-bit and 64-bit DFHack.

Important: Some alpha releases in the past have been stable. This is most likely not one of them. It's intended primarily for people to help test and find issues.

The following things are known to be missing or possibly broken, so please don't report them if they are:

  • Ruby
  • Stonesense
  • Some offsets (although do report any crashes that occur as a result)
