AllegroHack is distributed under the same terms as Nethack, see license for details. System requirements: Pentium class CPU or better. 8 megabytes RAM. Windows 98, windows 95, or MSDOS-compatible operating system. AllegroHack may run on a 486 or with less RAM. It will most certainly NOT run under Windows NT or Windows 2000. Installing AllegroHack: From the command line, copy ahack12b.zip to your Nethack 3.3.0 directory, and then type "pkunzip -d ahack12b.zip". Or using Winzip, Extract ahack12b.zip to your Nethack 3.3.0 directory with the "use folder names" box checked. Then, edit alleg.cnf in a text editor such as Notepad to set your preferences. Edit defaults.nh and ensure the line "OPTIONS=video:autodetect" doesn't have a # in front of it. Finally, run anethack.exe as you would nethack.exe. If AllegroHack crashes when you run it, make sure that OPTIONS=video:autodetect is set in your nethack config file! Controls: F3 : Cycle HUD between equipment display, mini-map, and off. F4 : Toggle overview mode. F5 : Save screenshot. This will dump 2 files, "nethack.bmp" contains what's on your screen. "nhmap.bmp" is a graphical map of the whole level. Control-Left : Pan the screen left. Control-Right : Pan the screen right. Control-PgUp : Pan the screen up. Control-PgDn : Pan the screen down. (I can't get Control-up or Control-down to work) Known Bugs: There is a long pause when entering or leaving the rogue level, just be patient. AllegroHack may not allow you to alt-tab out of it. Create a shortcut to anethack.exe and make sure that all the windows function keys are enabled in its shortcut properties. You may also be able to shell out with '!' then alt-tab. If this doesn't fix it email me or post to rec.games.roguelike.nethack. On some systems, AllegroHack crashes when the backspace key is pressed. I have no idea why. Contacting me: You can email me at jry@pinn.net, or post to rec.games.roguelike.nethack. I check news more often than email, so a post to RGRN will probably reach me quicker. In either case, be sure to include "AllegroHack" somewhere in the subject: line.
