FAangband 2.0.0

Nick · August 22, 2021, 04:13

FAangband 2.0.0 is now available for Windows, MacOS and as source. The official site is here.

For those unfamiliar with it, FAangband was originally forked from Oangband, and developed until around 2014 with version 1.4.4. Development was restarted in 2020, with a rewrite aimed at re-implementing the best features of original FAangband but based on the latest Angband code base.

Since this version is heavily based on Angband there are way too many people to thank here, but I would like to mention:

Arralen
backwardsEric
Cuboideb (Diego Gonzalez)
David Medley
dhouseholder
EugeneLesnov
Gwarl
HolyRage
Ingwe Ingweron
jevansau
kheldar
MITZE
Rodent/Sideways/sulkasormi
Sacksquatch
wobbly

for specific FA_related help.

Please play, enjoy and report bugs - there will be plenty

Thanks Nick! Been looking forward to this one for a while! Question: where would you like me to report crashes related to the Android port? Should I report them here or to Diego? I am having a recurring crash in Amon Rudh level 15 when trying to recall back to my home. Just got to Amon Rudhm, my home is in Belegost and I have 1 more portal to Khazad Dum. When using a scroll of word of recall, it asks me what recall point I want to replace and I select "nowhere" and then as soon as I get the message saying I'm getting yanked back home, the game crashes. I'll post this in the Android thread too, apologies if this is Android specific, not sure what the cause is, Android or source.

Here is good, but probably to Diego too. Do you have a savefile?
