0011689: Necromancers can still visit forts from older versions
The changelog for 0.47.05 says this:
"Stopped corpse raising, shapeshifting and non-living non-vampire visitors"

However, in my 0.47.03/04 save that I updated to 0.47.05 (https://dffd.bay12games.com/file.php?id=15408 [^]), I got a necromancer visitor.
Continue the saved fort, then look at 'a'nnouncements. You will see one that says a dwarven necromancer is visiting.
No tags attached.

I forgot to add that this is an unmodded save, and that I did not try to reproduce this by making a world entirely from the current version.

Possibly a result of copying over the save. Necros plan their infiltrations a year or so in advance sometimes, if he's already decided to go it might already be set.

That said, 47.05 generated world and I've received one undead lieutenant visitor. So whatever fix may have been done isn't working perfectly.

I can second this - world generated in 47.05, just got a "goblin miner rotting zombie" visitor - presumably a necromancer experiment

save demonstrating this can be found here: https://dffd.bay12games.com/file.php?id=15637 [^]
