Roguelike Gallery (rlgallery.org)
|
||||
|
||||
This is the source code for the Roguelike Gallery's version of Rogue V3.
|
||||
|
||||
History
|
||||
Rogue 3 was released by Michael Toy, Ken Arnold, and Glenn Wichman, probably
|
||||
late in 1980. It went through several minor updates. The last, Rogue 3.6,
|
||||
was completed mid-June 1981.
|
||||
|
||||
The Roguelike Restoration Project (rogue.rogueforge.net) updated the game to
|
||||
work on modern systems.
|
||||
|
||||
The Roguelike Gallery's version has been slightly modified for compatibility
|
||||
with dgamelaunch and security for multiple players.
|
||||
|
||||
Installing
|
||||
First, configure for your system by editing machdep.h. The defaults are for a
|
||||
system-wide installation, which will require setgid on the binary. For a
|
||||
single-user installation, comment out SAVEDIR and set SCOREFILE and LOGFILE to
|
||||
locations somewhere in your home directory. (That's probably the best thing to
|
||||
do on Windows, too.)
|
||||
|
||||
Once that's finished, compile by running make. (I haven't tested the Visual
|
||||
Studio project files on Windows, but they should work.)
|
||||
|
||||
If you want multi-user play, install the rogue3 binary with setgid games. You
|
||||
will need to make sure that SAVEDIR exists and that savefiles, SCOREFILE, and
|
||||
LOGFILE can be created and written by the games group (assuming you want those
|
||||
features.) For a single user, installing shouldn't be necessary.
|
||||
|
||||
Playing
|
||||
For more details, see readme36.html (contains the man page) and rogue36.html

||||
(Michael Toy's "Guide to the Dungeons of Doom").
