Many tutorials are already listed under the Dwarf Fortress wiki. Some of these are included below.
Highly recommended is the "bentgirder" tutorial

- Boatmurdered, a humorous walk-through of one person's fortress experience

3rd Party Plugins/Tools
- The Dwarf Fortress Lazy Newb Pack
- Note that v5.0 has many disabled utilities, if you want the full utility experience highly consider getting v4.6!
- Stonesense live 3D map viewer
- Note: this is just a VIEWER and doesnt actually make the game 3D. It has a lag as well, so it's long term usefulness is limited in terms of playing the game. But it's very impressive to show your friends.
