Yes, the .FON files should. I've just moved to a new build chain, because I'm building on OS/X - which has caused/highlighted these problems.

Oh, missed that while writing / working. Will download and check right now. :)

Does start. Should those files be present in the src package also? :)

I saw "ralloc" in wip6a - which compiled without error. Not sure if that has anything to do with the issue.

Also - there are no *.FON files in the package. The precompiled wip7-win package failed to run with the error (same as last):

---------------------------
Error
---------------------------
Cannot find required file:
C:\Users\[username]\Downloads\unangband-062-wip7-win\unangband-062-src\lib\xtra\font\8X13.FON
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------

Extracting FONTs (and possibly much more - I copied wip6a lib/ folde in there, then extracted the zip again to make sure the datafiles were correct) it started up nicely.

FYI - the pre-compiled win package is missing quite a bit of the "lib" package, but have "Makefile, Makefile.am and Makefile.in" inside each folder in lib/

PS. The "ralloc" messages were under MingW / Windows Vista - haven't had the opportunity to try it out under XP.

Tormod.

Turns out there were a few files missing from the source distribution. I'm in the process of updating a precompiled windows executable to include e.g. the missing font files. You should be able to download this in about 20 minutes. Then let me know if this works for you.

Re: the icon. It got corrupted by SVN (All the OS/X graphics pngs were corrupted as well, so I suspect something systemic). I've updated the source .zip file so that it contains a working icon.

The fonts error sounds suspiciously like the error you get if you try running the executable from the src directory. Try copying it up one level.

The ralloc error is the downside of updating the memory management model without being able to test on the major platform. I'll have a look at the Angband main-win.c code and try to figure out what's going on.

I tried to compile 0.6.2 wip 7 with MingW under windows (vista). Got a couple of errors that stumped me (not hard to do with c/c++/make).

Did manage to compile wip 6a without a hitch, though, but couldn't run it to confirm; missing fonts (lib/xtra/font).

I have to run now, will try and hunt for fonts/stuff later tonight (couple of hours) and give some better error messages.

PS. First error I got (wip7) was "windres angband.rc -O coff -o angband.res
c:\mingw\bin\windres.exe: angband.ico: read 9640 returned 9639"

restored the "old icon", and it went great until:

Oh, curses I'm late.
