Last time I’ve chosen a bad platform to distribute beta builds of the app and had to remove the original post. The new platform is much better, and with the Stocks screen and other fixes it’s time to release a new version for testing.
A link to apply was here, more testers will be invited when new beta versions become available.
By the way, I’ve sent invitations long time ago to everyone who contacted me on the Bay12 forum and to other emails I had from the old platform, but most of these people haven’t even accepted invitations. If you’re still waiting, better check your old emails, or contact me again if there’s nothing.
You need to have iPhone 5 or later with iOS 8, ideally. 4S will work but some screens may not fit properly acheter viagra belgique. iPad is OK, but UI elements size and location not optimised for big screens. iOS 7 is supported, too, but almost untested.
Obviously you’ll need a computer to which you will be able to connect – depending on your ISP, your home computer may or may not be accessible from outside (which doesn’t prevent from playing on a couch of course). Some NAT configurations are supported but we’ll deal with this and required configuration in each case individually.
Keep in mind that there is unfinished stuff, bugs, and you need to have some DF/DFHack experience.

Implemented an automatic update mechanism for DF Remote server. Now the dfhack plugin needs to be installed only once, and the update procedure when a new version of the client application is released is greatly simplified.
Updates are cryptographically signed and this functionality can be disabled.

More people should now be able to connect to their DF game running at home.
Also, shaking your device will now show a popup with a page from dwarffortresswiki.org relevant to the current screen. This will change in future though – I don’t like using shake for any actions, and ideally it should be possible to show help for example for individual jobs in a workshop and not just for the entire screen.

Over the weekend, I implemented a lot of missing functionality, mostly related to building and buildings. Almost all buildings have their actions and options available at build time implemented now. Also improved handling of announcements, specifically popup announcements, and other UI elements. Reconnection / restoration of game state is much faster now even if the app has been terminated while in background.
I do not answer questions about the estimated release date, mostly because I do not know how much time I’ll have to work on this. Below is the list of unimplemented stuff.
Missing: military screen (while squads menu is implemented), workshop profiles, stockpile-workshop links, health overview screen, justice-related stuff, stocks screen, civilizations screen, points/routes/notes, burrows, hauling, traps/levers and their linkage, world creation/starting a new game, several building actions (e.g. assigning creatures to cages and chains), nobles requirements/demands/mandates.
It’s a huge list, and some things are really important and I will work on them now, while some are deliberately skipped and will not be done until after the first public test release. Of course, advanced players may consider all of them must-have, but technically you can play without burrows and minecarts, for example.
I’m mostly happy with the networking and UI code, so can focus on this list now. The only other non-gameplay thing I’ll do is a support for NAT traversal, so that more people will be able to connect to their game running on a computer at home.
