( Dwarf Fortress stores a copy of the raw directory for saves in the saves directory, so changes there will only affect that save for that user.) This includes the raw directory, so changes to /opt/dwarffortress/raw/ - either directly or through the link - will affect new games for all users. dwarffortress/ are symlinks to directories in /opt/dwarffortress/.

When first run, Dwarf Fortress that was installed via Pacman creates a hidden folder in the user's home directory, ~/.dwarffortress/, to store configuration files, save files, etc. See also the Installation page on the Dwarf Fortress wiki. Other bundles, starter packs, tilesets, and mods can be found at the Dwarf Fortress File Depot. Īlternatively, the AUR has packages that bundle or add graphics tilesets and/or utilities. Linux (and Mac) releases are planned to return eventually. Note: v50+ Dwarf Fortress only has Windows releases as 2023-01, which need to be run via Wine or Proton.
