NetHack 3.6.7 for Atari ST/TT/Falcon with the GEM tile interface, built
for a stock 4 MB machine.

Requirements

  • Atari ST-class machine with 4 MB RAM; GEM AES (TOS, MagiC, EmuTOS, or
    FreeMiNT/XaAES)
  • For tiles: 16-colour or deeper video (TT/Falcon, graphics card, or an
    emulator's extended VDI; 640x480x16 recommended). ST-High monochrome
    runs ASCII or the dithered 2-colour tiles.

Installation
Unzip NH367ST.ZIP, double-click nethack.prg. Run nethack.tos instead for a pure VT52 text console.

Highlights

  • GEM tile interface backported from the NetHack 5.0 Atari branch:
    tiles, menus, dialogs, status hilites, hitpointbar, menucolors
  • fits 4 MB even at 8 bitplanes (streamed strip-wise image loading)
  • autounlock: locked doors and boxes offer "Unlock it?" when you
    carry a key, lock pick, or credit card
  • ships a full-featured NetHack.cnf; F2 toggles tiles/ASCII in game

Save and bones files are not compatible with other NetHack versions.

Tested on Hatari (EmuTOS 1.4, 4 MB, VDI 640x480x16), on a
Mega ST 4 with an 8-bitplane graphics card and in ST-High,
and on a Falcon under FreeMiNT.
