versions won't work against Dwarf Fortress due to ABI and STL incompatibilities.
DFHack has to be compiled with the Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 or 2017 toolchain on Windows;
other versions won't work against Dwarf Fortress due to ABI and STL incompatibilities.
At present, the only way to obtain the MSVC C++ 2015 toolchain is to install a
full copy of Microsoft Visual Studio 2015. The free Community version is
sufficient.
You can install Visual Studio 2015_ or 2017_ Community edition for free, which
include all the features needed by DFHack. You can also download just the
`build tools`_ if you aren't going to use Visual Studio to edit code.
