Please somebody help me

[JoseMachete]

Goodmorning everyone, I'm updating the post. The project compiles as per right now. I went back to visual studio and with some very welcome help it runs. I do have to recompile to include the dlls into the project, for the exe asks for it to run.
Another bug that i hope you guys can help me is related to the message <failed to create script> that pops out sometimes. For example, when you kill a monster you get <skeleton script failed to create>. Something like that. Tell me if you need the exact line of the bug. I hope we can fix this and then finally release this ZAngband fork project. Hopefully. Crossing fingers.
Thank you very much guys

Hi my good folks. No improvement. Stuck on one 'cant find angband.h' file on Borland C++. In the repo there are also makefiles with .bcc instructions, but I'm just plain too dumb to follow. I feel like giving up at this point, or release without the recompiled source code.
Thank you guys, Maester Nick, backwardsEric, Cryiomaniac, thank you. I overestimated my poor skills.

Hello! Well your info is very much welcome, as helps me bunches to follow the correct path in this adventure(nightmare).
As per today, important update:
Following Cryiomaniac suggestion, I installed Borland C++ and I found out the instructions I got can be very well followed when using Borland. Plus the IDE resembles the older win versions I'm more familiar with.
After going through the whole process, which I found easier to follow in Borland rather than VS, I went down from 94 errors (C1803) to an astonishing number of !!! 3 !!!. They are still the same, compiler cannot find xlib.h but man, I feel reinvigorated. I CAN do this! Took an antidepression potion and I got this, come on!
Thank you kindly my sires, I will take a proper look to lcc as soon as I can.

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.

Hello Cryomaniac, that gives me a new hope, will get at it asap! Thank you bunches! Will report back

[Cryomaniac]

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

[JoseMachete]

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.

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

Here's the forked repo.

[JoseMachete]

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.
