RePosBand: play as a monster in Angbad 3.2

[jevansau]

Killed Gothmog with a Balrog and got the blessing and special artifact.
Unfortunately, after save and restore the artifact has lost all of its special properties except the permanent curse. Glad it wasn't worn .
I do have the savefile if it would be of use.

Killed Bullroarer the Hobbit as a crystal drake, he dropped not only the Gauntlets of Bullroarer, but the Dagger, Natharc, neither of which I can use. Great game, btw, loads of fun.

Smeagol gave me the Gauntlets of Paurhach.

Just had the same problem with the dog collar losing its pval properties after save and reload. Are other people seeing this issue?
I do have randarts turned on so it could be related to that.
Is source available? If so, I might have a go at debugging it myself.

Source is here.

Shoot, I voted for the wrong answer and can't change it. >_<

My favorite part of PosBand from all the way back was by far the summoning.

Sorry for resurrecting this thread, but I'm trying to play RePosBand and two things have come up:

1. Saving the game doesn't work. No error message, but the ~/.angband directory is not created, and in general nothing happens when you try to save. Can anyone help me with this?

2. Just thought I ought to mention that RePosBand will not compile on Debian unless you specify -std=c99 in Makefile.std. Maybe that should be there by default?

have you tried to manually create "~/.angband/Reposband/save" ?
it could be necessary to edit config.h to use PRIVATE_USER_PATH and/or USE_PRIVATE_PATH, and h-basic.h to define SET_UID (it's ok on *nix).
of course you should recompile after modifing the files
