0.43.03 (the last 32-bit version of this pack)Ī simple ready-to-play pack for Linux, with tilesets and utilities.Legacy versions are available on DFFD for some notable DF versions: Contents and a changelog are listed on the forum thread (linked above). This pack is maintained by PeridexisErrant, and aims to include everything - while ensuring that ignoring any option still works for new players. Windows: PeridexisErrant's DF Starter Pack There are several packs available for different platforms, with different maintainers and release schedules. Of course there are a few personal touches too, but the vast majority of each is thanks to others - and not least Tarn and Zach for Dwarf Fortress itself. It is also important to note that most of the contents of each pack were created by many members of the community and just collected, configured, and redistributed by the maintainer of each pack. Most include just about everything that still works and could be useful. The packages are built around the idea that newbies will likely have more difficulty with the game than with a package of utilities - which often make the game easier - and that there are many players who are not new but would still prefer an option to get all the extras in one place with a minimum of fiddling. In general, it's safe to simply ignore any option you don't understand and trust that the default settings will be okay. 3.4 PyLNP: The modern cross platform launcherĪ Starter pack (sometimes referred to as a 'Lazy Newb Pack') is a pack that includes many utilities that a veteran player might want, while configuring everything in such a way that it is still easier for new players.2.1 Windows: PeridexisErrant's DF Starter Pack.

I think it might be kind of fun to play around with updating some of the older packs. Ironhand is a little different because it is 18x18 instead of 16x16 like the others, but it still shares lots of graphics with the rest. Updating them all for the new graphics release of Dwarf Fortress probably wouldn't be too much harder than updating just one of them. If people really want the old graphics packs (especially Phoebus, Spacefox, Mayday, and Obsidian), these packs are all really similar to each other and already share a lot of graphics with each other.

Do we still need Lazy Newb Packs? I haven't played it yet, but I hope the new graphics/UI update is good enough to make the LNP irrelevant. All the old packs have been on life support for years.

A free graphics pack released soon after the Steam version will likely hurt sales, and the developers could really use the money.Īnd maybe it's time for the old graphics packs to fade away to make room for new artists' packs designed for the new graphics update of Dwarf Fortress to shine. I think the premium graphics pack of the paid Steam version should be given a time to shine. I have not been working on anything for the graphics release. And I do not remember if it was posted on this subreddit or the forums. I haven't been able to find the post, though. I kind of thought I saw a post a long time ago where someone said that they were working on updating the old graphics packs for the graphics overhaul of Dwarf Fortress.
