Types of vaults

Wraitheist · September 7, 2008, 15:52

Hi guys,

Can someone explain to me the different types of vaults, what they look like, and which ones tend to have better stuff? Pointing me to an existing resource is fine, too.

I keep hearing about greatery vaults, etc., and I've been several different types, I just don't know how to identify them. Thanks!

This information is available in your Angband directory in the file
\lib\edit\vault.txt
Some general facts are given in the online spoiler:

Can somebody give some advice on how to make that vault.txt file readable? I'm on Windows XP. It's a mass of raw text and it messes up how the vaults look.

I am using the Context-Text-Editor: http://www.contexteditor.org/index.html

WordPad will work also, I think.

It has newline-terminated (UNIX-style) lines. The cygwin utility unix2dos will solve the problem, as will using some other editor than notepad. OpenOffice will certainly work, and I think wordpad does too.
