    Please somebody help me

    Hello, Jose Machete here, I'm reaching out to anyone that can give me some help. I'm stuck for weeks now on the compiling process of my forked clone of BlueBaron's Z-Angband. The VisualStudio steps referred in his repo are of and older version and I'm using VS2022. To my utter desperation, I cannot go further than the create new empty win32 project, from there, it's just stepping on a blinding trap. I know you guys are busy, please, please, I would buy a burger and a beer to whoever can throw me a saving line, I'm desperate.

      I'm sorry, I have never used Visual Studio so I don't think I have anything to offer here.

        Hello! Is there any way to compile using other compiler? Cygwin? Msys2? MinGW64? I know nothing about that but I'm willing to learn if you say it might work on any of the mentioned above. Thank you, Nick, for answering, much obliged. And let me say a huge thank you for all you do here.

          You could try using Borland compiler (makefile.bcc); that's what I was using to compile Gensou variant on Windows without Visual Studio.

              src/makefile in your repository seems to be set up to work with the lcc compiler for windows (Wikipedia's description of lcc is here, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LCC_(compiler) ; the site for getting the Windows version is here, https://lcc-win32.services.net ). I don't have any experience with lcc, so I can't say if it would be easier than getting Borland's compiler or Visual Studio to work.
