I have windows 10, and I tried to run the game(s) on various different compability modes,but to no avail. The variants I have had this problem in were psiangband and furyband. I am sure I had the same problem in others too.Any idea how to fix it?

The problem is; The display is buggy.It doesn't show stuff properly.F.e, my char will sometimes leave a trail when moving

I think this is a very old bug that was fixed in modern variants. If it is this bug, do the following.

Look at lib/pref/font-win-prf.

There are probably lines looking like this:

Code:

# Floors (white / centered dot)

F:1:1/31

# Invis traps (white / centered dot)

F:2:1/31

Comment out the two F: lines (put a "#" in front of them). It should work after that.
