FAangband 1.1

Anyone can use Sauron's forms to shapeshift in now.

*facepalm*

So, have zombified humans been beefed up a bit, or is it just my imagination. With ~200 HP, I just got my a55 handed to me by freaking zombies. Sure, there were a lot of them, but they're freaking zombies. I couldn't very well run from them. The Complainer would never let me live it down. I can see it now. "The Complainer can barely contain his laughter as he recollects the time time you bravely fled the zombie horde."

Possible minor bug (or a nice work around). Still using 1.1.3. I just had a shield of Vulnerability that was cursed such that I couldn't drop it from my pack. I went into the squelch menu and Ego Squelched shields of Vulnerability and it dropped it automatically. Cool! I unsquelched that Ego and it's still there on the ground. OK, it's probably cheating, but there were no Remove Curse scrolls in town, so I'm not picking that thing up again!

Bug, now fixed in development.

Just your imagination

Nick, you have disabled Saurons forms for himself instead of all others in your last dev. version

Actually, I think I've just stopped Sauron summoning anything. I'll try again.

Edit: Better?

Well Sauron was summoning, just not shapeshift. It seems you need to add force_depth and gauroth flags back to saurons forms, if I understand correctly how summoning code works.

Oh, yes, I forgot I'd taken those out.

Dungeon only ironman does not work. I got "gruesome software bug" when I try to go downstairs from town.

Fixed in the repository. Thanks for testing

OK, 1.1.5 now up. Bugfixes:

• Fixed curses on ego items now shown in store display
• SDL double and triple tile settings are saved
• Sauron's shapeshift works properly again (I think)
• Rings with a skill or deadliness bonus say in their description which it is
• Town scrolls properly (really this time)
• 'x' is shown instead of 'l' as the roguelike shop inspect command
• Drop and trap-setting messages are suppressed where all relevant items are squelched and hide_squelchable is set
• Nowhere Town hidden for now
• Loophole for dropping STICKY_CARRY items closed

Bug not fixed - the NDS crashes on quitting or dying. The quit one isn't really a problem, as it saves before freezing. The workaround for the dying one is to delete the savefile...

I can only find 1.1.4 at http://angband.oook.cz/faangband/Downloads.html. Where should I get 1.1.5?

Try reloading the page - it looks OK for me.

That was it. Thanks!
