* AmigaOS 4 Changes:
- uses datatypes for sound now. Tested with Kvinkunx sound archives
- no need to assign Angband: anymore
- sound.cfg goes now to xtra/sound/ directory. It looks like:
"
hit = hit1.8svx hit2.8svx hit3.8svx hit4.8svx hit5.8svx
miss = miss1.8svx miss2.8svx miss3.8svx miss4.8svx
flee = fear_n1.8svx fear_n2.8svx fear_n3.8svx fear_n4.8svx
drop = drop1.8svx drop2.8svx drop3.8svx drop4.8svx drop5.8svx
...and so on
"
-- (taken from Kvinkunx's sound.cfg)
* Old AmigaOS 4 changes:
- fixed public screen problem (I hope), caused by a bug in ObtainBestPen()
call.
- uses newlib.library now.
- directory structure changed a bit. Assign angband: to the main directory
now.
* Angband changes:
Changes Angband 3.0.6:
- Wands and staves are no longer destroyed when a recharge attempt
backfires. Instead all the charges are drained.
- Renamed the artifact short sword 'Gilettar' to 'Dagmor' since that
name is mentioned for the sword of Beren in Tolkien's notes.
(suggested by Tyler Witter)
- Added a new type of subwindow for displaying the dungeon area around
the player.
- Added a new subwindow type "Display player (compact)" that displays
the left-hand-side of the main term (player stats, hitpoints, gold,
...) in a separate window.
- Added a new window type that displays the info from the status line.
- Turned the "scroll map while targetting" option permanently on.
- Added a display of the temporary resists to the status line. The
resists are only displayed if there is enough room after the dungeon
level (when using a main or status term with at least 85 cols).
The verbosity of the output (between "Acid Elec Fire Cold Pois" and
"AEFCP") depends on the term width.
- Display the player's speed in the character dump and on the info page.
- Identified scrolls can now look different from unidentified ones.
This allows the use of the individual scroll tiles created by David
Gervais.
- Allow the ammo-branding activation of 'Cubragol' to be aborted without
using up the charge. (Diego Gonzalez and Jeff Greene)
- Use actual monster and object symbols instead of a list of hardcoded
symbols when hallucinating.
- Added Craig Oliver's Sound FX Patch version 1.1 that adds about 120
new sound events to the game.
(see also http://www.chambrook.org/angband/soundfx.php)
- Scroll the map when the player is 1/4th of the visible grids away from
the edge of the map display.
- Allow the OS X version to be started from a read-only medium, for
example from a disk image or a central installation under
'Applications'. All user-specific files like savefiles, scores,
char-dumps, and saved preferences are stored in
'Library/Preferences/Angband/' and its subfolders inside the user's
home directory.
- The Mac OS X application bundle now includes all the necessary files
from the lib folder. The separate lib folder in the distribution is
no longer necessary. This means that the OS X version can now be
installed by simply dragging the application icon to the target
directory.
- The OS X version would crash when changing the sound or graphics
options before a character was created or loaded. (reported by Patrick
Hughes)
- Don't save the Mac OS X preferences on exit if the game hasn't been
initialized properly to prevent corruption of the preference file in
case of an error at startup. Skip loading the preference file if it
is broken. (problem reported by Matt Stone)
- Include the basic Angband sound files per default in the OS X version.
- Made the tile size independent of the font size in the X11 version.
Store various window settings like the window size between sessions.
- Don't add a hardcoded 'games' subdirectory to the installation path on
multi-user machines.
- Allow all user created files to be saved in subdirectories under
~/.angband/Angband/ when PRIVATE_USER_PATH is defined.
- Allow the use of the 'vcs' display module on systems with devfs-style
'/dev/vc/*' terminals.
- The virtual console (vcs) front-end does now implement cursor
visibility and bigscreen support. (Alexander Ulyanov)
- Enable cursor visibility in the "gcu" front-end on Linux systems.
(Alexander Ulyanov)
- Fixed a bug in the Xaw frontend, which made Angband crash if the main
window geometry was specified as an X resource. (Alexander Ulyanov)
- Make X11 frontends show floors as centered dots, walls as blocks, and
treasures as diamonds. (Alexander Ulyanov)
- Removed the restriction of bigtile mode to the main window in the X11
version.
- Added Alexander Ulyanov's Linux framebuffer display module from:
http://posband.earthsea.org/misc/angband-lfb-20050220.tar.gz
- Added compile instructions for MinGW/MSYS on Windows. (Tuomas
Härkönen)
- Added compile instructions for gcc on Mac OS X.
- Fixed a stupid bug that could cause the game to hang or crash when
killing quest monsters near the edge of the dungeon. (Ivan Tuckwell
and Dr. Andrew White)
- Added missing tiles and tile assignments for the 32x32 tiles. (Ivan
Jekic and David Gervais)
- The charges of rods of perception weren't handled correctly when
compiling with scripting turned off. (reported by "Twilight" and Jeff
Greene)
- Cursed speed rings should not increase the level feeling. (Anssi
Ramela and Jeff Greene)
- Refresh the list of visible monsters after (Mass) Banishment,
Earthquake, and Destruction spells, when using the 'delete nearby
monsters' function in debug mode, as well as when pressing Ctrl-R.
("Twilight")
- Don't try to write zero-length blocks when saving the lib/data/*.raw
files. (suggested by Juha Niemimaki)
- Corrected the item description for scrolls of recharging. (reported by
Hugo Kornelis)
- Fixed a Angband 3.0.6 alpha 1 specific crash with the Mac OS X 10.4
(Tiger) caused by releasing a reference that should not be released.
(reported by Harry Erwin)
- The experience loss as a result of one of the One Ring's activations
is now 1/4 of both max and current experience instead of the
unintended reduction of max exp by 3/16 of the current experience.
(Hugo Kornelis)
- Cleaned up the handling of experience draining when the player has
Hold Life. The fixed part of the exp drain by nether breaths is now
also reduced by Hold Life. (Hugo Kornelis)
- The 'star ball' activation fired one ball more when scripting was
enabled. (Hugo Kornelis)
- The object description for the 'cure wounds' activation reads
"activates for cure wounds (4d7)", but it actually cures 4d8 points of
damage. The description has been fixed. (Hugo Kornelis)
- The "recharge item" artifact activation can now be canceled at the
"Recharge which item" prompt without draining the artifact's charge.
(Hugo Kornelis)
- The symbol for the Shield of Deflection was a light blue [ instead of
a ) like all other shields. (Hugo Kornelis)
- Reduced the price for "Raal's Tome of Destruction". (Hugo Kornelis and
Timo Pietila)
