I am proud to announce, after yet another three-year hiatus, a new version of Cat-and-the-Hack Angband. Aside from a few bug fixes, this release is essentially just the CatH 2.9.1.3 features reimplemented in the 3.0.3 core with a few exceptions: * The adjusted hits-per-blow table was not used because I believe 3.0 already made similar adjustments. Similarly, Ranger object feeling was not changed because 3.0 already made the necessary changes, I think. * Kobolds and poison brand are already in 3.0, so there was no need to use the old versions of those. * I didn't implement the Set Recall Depth scrolls because 3.0 created an option that would make them useless and I want to re-examine the recall issue a bit before I change things too much. Although I developed this version of CatH on OS X in Project Builder, I have decided not to release an OS X version myself because there are a few things I can't get working right in Project Builder, most notably character dumps. So I am only distributing the source, and I'll leave all the binaries up to the good porting folks of the Angband community. CatH, as always, can be downloaded from the CatH-Angband web site at http://cath-angband.sourceforge.net/ and should soon be available from the clockwork.dementia.org FTP site. Note to anybody nice enough to do a port for me: Don't forget to include the readme2.txt file along with your distribution. It contains CatH-specific information. -- Evan Jenkins [EMAIL PROTECTED]
