NetHack 3.3.1 released

followup questions to the rec.games.roguelike.nethack newsgroup and
not to me personally, since I can't answer questions about NetHack. ]]
The NetHack DevTeam is pleased to announce the release of NetHack 3.3.1.
NetHack 3.3.1 is an enhancement to the dungeon exploration game NetHack. It
is a distant descendent of Rogue and Hack, and a direct descendent of
NetHack 3.2 and 3.3.0.
This version fixes many, many bugs and focuses primarily on stabilizing the
features and changes introduced to the game in 3.3.0. A security fix is
also included as well as a few extra surprises.
Here is a brief overview of new additions and changes to the game. To give
more would be cheating, wouldn't it?
o New warning system that is more pleasant than the old one
o Restored Amiga port functionality courtesy Janne Salmijarvi
o Restored Atari port functionality courtesy Christian "Marvin" Bressler
o The Gnome toolkit interface is now offered as an experimental option
that was recently rolled into the NetHack source tree
The NetHack 3.3.1 source code supports many different platforms including
most Unix versions. In addition to source code support, we've supplied
binaries for Dos, Win32, Apple Macintosh (tm), and Linux (tm). Binaries for
OS/2 (tm), Atari (tm), and Amiga (tm) will be available shortly.
To download the game, go to the NetHack website and download from the
downloads page at <http://www.nethack.org> . There are two mirrors of the
sources and binaries available to reduce the load on our server. If you are
outside the USA or Canada, you can try either of the following:
<ftp://ftp.win.tue.nl/pub/games/nethack.331>
<http://www.nethack.de/download/>
For the DevTeam...

*grins* Ya know people are eager for a new release when they hungrily
seek it out and find it on the webpage before it even has the chance
to be announced. ;)
Thanks DevTeam!

Infinitely! My first (and current) 3.31 character ended up being a
monk, and now instead of getting those annoying flashes of light, you
get little colored "1"s when a monster is nearby but out of your view,
I assume in colors corresponding to their difficulty. Much much
better!

And as a quick followup to myself now that I've gotten a bit further
down... my assumption was wrong. The colors don't change to correspond
to the difficulty, the numbers do. (Unless both the numbers and colors
change for different things, but that sounds a bit complex and I doubt
it's the case.)

You surely aren't the only one. It is _always_ so wonderful to notice,
that a new version of the best game in the world has been released. :-)
And it really is the best game I've played - never gets boring and always
offers something new.

A set of programs/environment for X-Windows. If you don't know what it
is, it doesn't effect you :)

They change for the same thing; 1-3 are red, 4 magenta, and 5 bright
magenta.

Oh! *blush* I thought they meant there was something they added to the
Gnome race that you could do as a bit more racial variety...
*ahem* sorry bout that.

GNOME, as in GNU Object Modeling Environment. It's a desktop (window
manager, file manager, help system, and widget set) for the X Window
System, mostly used under Linux. What he means is the code from GnomeHack
has been integrated into standard NH.
BTW, Thanks DevTeam, I will continue to worship you as benevolent gods.

GNOME is a desktop environment, and runs on other UNIX platforms too,
not just Linux.
(And personally: Yes, it was pleasure to kill both. I don't use the
actual GNOME environment because they were particularly unstable about
an year ago, plus I got tons of more functionality by using plain
WindowMaker + Debian's nifty menu system + gentoo file manager, so all
I use from GNOME at the moment are the address book, calendar and the cool
terminal window thingy. And the GNOME games, of course. =)

Most excellent.
And now, off to curse that I'll probably never see the Really Juicy

This might be slick. One of the reasons I junked the X version for was

I don't think so, since Gnome isn't a window manager.

I had that same problem in early (non-public) versions of AllegroHack.

I'm most impressed that all the problems I mentioned with the
vegetarian/vegan/foodless and illiterate challenges have been sorted
out, and that the beginning of the Guidebook has had its
inconsistencies fixed, as I was worried that my comments on these
issues had been ignored.
However, I would like to report one minor bug: my lawful human
Valkyrie kept getting blasted by Excalibur. I'm sure this didn't
happen in 3.3.0.

Simple patch for this:

(The "FIXME" was present in 3.3.0, so it's probably referring to
something different; it's just that badclass() doesn't have the "if

have roles set to NON_PM, and Excalibur's fix-up seems to have been
overlooked even though artilist.h was changed. NON_PM == (-1), btw.)

The Dev Team have listened to the people who have thought of everything.
[I am most impressed that NH 3.3.1 pluralises 'okonomiyaki' correctly.]

Looking at some of my bug reports that _have_ been fixed, I can't
imagine that there's many bugs obscurer or rarer :-) (On the other
hand, "too effort-consuming for the value returned" or "too likely to
break other stuff", now you're talking; but I don't think there's any
evidence that bug reports are being _ignored_.)

Debian bug #35932 [http://www.debian.org/Bugs/db/35/35932.html]. To be
fair, it isn't clear whether this is nethack, ncurses, or xterm's fault, and
the bug isn't exactly earth shattering - although it does stop me from
playing except on the console. Also, there might be a fix in 3.3.1;
I haven't tried it yet due to saved games, but I do see possibly-relevant
changes in the diff ("HE_resets_AS").

Whilst wearing a ring of conflict, follow the guard out of a Magic Memory
Vault until the corridor disappears ... I _think_ this is a general bug;
please correct me if I am wrong. Mailed the DevTeam about that since
NetHack 3.2.2, but to no avail. Perhaps it really does not matter that
much at all ... ::shrug::

Hehe :-) ...
But does that mean, that not _all_ bugs you found in 3.3.0 were fixed ?!
When will NetHack be free of bugs ?! Well, never.

There's currently eight items on my personal open list. Some of
them are less significant than others, of course.
(Possibly my favourite rare one that _was_ fixed was what happens if you
a) destroy a drawbridge (wand of striking, etc) while
b) there's a monster standing on it, which dies and
c) you're hallucinating.
Though that was just a typo in the YAFM.)
> When will NetHack be free of bugs ?! Well, never.
That goes for any program more complicated than "hello world", I'd
say.
> (Maybe *you* should go and join them (the DevTeam) :-).)
An ability to hack C would be something of a prerequisite, and I have
no delusions of competence in that :-)

Good to know - thank you.

> ... and it says "Suddenly, the guard disappears." What's the bug, again?
Upon leaving the corridor, I got these messages:
You destroy it! The corridor disappears. You murderer!--More--
Welcome to experience level 2.--More--
dmonsfree: 1 removed doesn't match 2 pending--More--
Program in disorder - perhaps you'd better #quit.
(The "You murderer!" message is probably because the RNG gave me a
Knight character to test with.)
What used to happen - I haven't had the opportunity to look closer at
3.3.x yet - was that when the guard was removed, his hit points were
set to 0. For some reason, even though he was gone, he was still
affected by conflict one last time. Even if he resisted, the program
would think that it was the magical attack that had reduced the guards
hit points to 0, killing him, and tried to remove him once again.
Torbjörn Andersson
Ivan Pongrac
> ... and it says "Suddenly, the guard disappears." What's the bug, again?
And it says furthermore:
You destroy it! The corridor disappears. You murderer! --More--
dmonsfree: 1 removed doesn't match 2 pending --More--
Program in disorder - perhaps you'd better #quit.
... and you get experience points for killing "it" (the guard) ..
Can't you reproduce it ?!
By the way, this little bug is now finally confirmed by the DevTeam ...

I got it with an elven wizard, and the rest of the messages too, in
3.3.1.

I replied to this yesterday afternoon--when trying to catch up
on some week-old mail, long before seeing any of the relevant message
in this current news thread--so it is not an example of a bug report
being ignored. And I'm pretty sure that I never saw any corresponding
bug report for 3.2.2, because in that version it ends up triggering a
dungeon collapse ("relmon: mon not in list"), and panic-inducing bugs
get a very high priority for being fixed. So perhaps your old mail
didn't get delivered for one reason or another. (On the other hand,
it could well have been received and then accidentally ignored. That
certainly does happen from time to time....)

The exclamation mark was missing prior to 3.3.1.
