MAngband

I chose to ignore the large type telling me that the installer does not work with vista. Started right up for me...didn't even need "compatability mode" or anything.

I'm running 32-bit home premium on a Pentium D.

edit: I seem to have spoken too soon. It installs and runs, but it is a bit buggy. I think the biggest problem (might be the only problem) is that I am unable to see walls.

If you go into your lib\user directory and rename the file font-win.prf to something else (maybe font-win-old.prf) and then restart your client you will get visible walls and things should work fine. Unfortunately, they'll be the complex walls that Linux players get (% and # mostly) instead of the nice solid blocks that Windows users are used to.

Fixing this is liable to be quite a bit of work (any good Windows programmers out there?) since the original fix for Windows was a bit of a hack. What we need is real font support instead (ie., you should be able to choose any fixed proportion font that Windows recognizes).

Worked! Thanks a lot .

Just in case any Vista users stumble across this thread... MAngband version 1.1.0 or later fully support Windows Vista, there is no longer any need to hack on the lib/ files.
