DFHack is an add-on for Dwarf Fortress that enables mods and tools to significantly extend the game. The default DFHack distribution contains a wide variety of these tools, including bugfixes, interface improvements, automation agents, design blueprints, modding building blocks, and more. Third-party tools (e.g. mods downloaded from Steam Workshop or the forums) can also seamlessly integrate with the DFHack framework and extend the game far beyond what can be done by just modding the raws.
DFHack’s mission is to provide tools and interfaces for players and modders to:

expand the bounds of what is possible in Dwarf Fortress
reduce the impact of game bugs
give the player more agency and control over the game
provide alternatives to toilsome or frustrating aspects of gameplay
make the game more fun

Our online Quickstart Guide will help you get up to speed with how to use DFHack. It's also available in-game via the quickstart-guide command.
The best way to make feature requests or report problems is to open an Issue at our GitHub page.
When reporting problems, links to your zipped, uploaded savegame and mods are immensely helpful, and issues with attached savegames and mods get fixed faster. We need a zip of your mods because we can't load your savegame without them.
DFHack installs directly into your Dwarf Fortress directory, so be sure to install it to the same Steam library and drive as Dwarf Fortress.
It is not a problem if you already have DFHack manually installed. You can subscribe to the Steam version and it will absorb the installed files. Your data in dfhack-config/ is safe. No additional steps are necessary.

DFHack 51.04-r1.1

This release is compatible with all distributions of Dwarf Fortress: Steam , Itch , and Classic .

Currently, each distribution channel of DF has a different version. This release of DFHack is specifically compatible with:

Dwarf Fortress 51.04 on Steam[/*]
Dwarf Fortress 51.03 on Itch[/*]
Dwarf Fortress 51.02 Classic[/*]

----

Please report any issues (or feature requests) on the DFHack GitHub issue tracker . When reporting issues, please upload a zip file of your savegame and a zip file of your mods directory to the cloud and add links to the GitHub issue. Make sure your files are downloadable by "everyone with the link". We need your savegame to reproduce the problem and test the fix, and we need your active mods so we can load your savegame. Issues with savegames and mods attached get fixed first!
