This is the source for the Roguelike Gallery's versions of Rogue and other
|
|
|
|
|
early roguelike games.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The code was obtained from the Roguelike Restoration Project
|
|
|
|
|
(rogue.rogueforge.net). Modifications have been made mainly for compatibility
|
|
|
|
|
with the dgamelaunch online play system. Some bugs have also been fixed, and
|
|
|
|
|
the build process slightly improved. The essential flavor of a codebase half
|
|
|
|
|
as old as stored-program computing machinery remains unchanged.

To install on Unix:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you checked out the source from Mercurial, run 'autoreconf' first.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Build by running './configure' and then 'make'. If you just want to play the
|
|
|
|
|
game from your own user account, 'configure' won't need any options. The
|
|
|
|
|
games will keep the high score lists in whatever directory you run them from.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For a multi-user installation, you will need to set the '--enable-setgid',
|
|
|
|
|
'--enable-savedir', '--enable-scorefile', and '--enable-logfile' options. Run
|
|
|
|
|
'make install' after building.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There are other possible options; run './configure --help' for a full list.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To install on Windows:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Use the included Visual Studio solution files. Warning: they have not been
|
|
|
|
|
tested recently.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
See the individual games' subdirectories for further documentation. Some of
|
|
|
|
|
the manpages may be outdated, but the guides to playing should be accurate.
