Submit a Bug Report

So you believe that you have discovered a bug in ADOM? Before you submit a bug report, you should be able to positively answer all of the following points:
  1. Did you make sure that your bug/RFE is not listed among the closed bugs with the most duplicates submitted so far? Many bugs/RFEs getting reported are already known and folks just don't check this (or don't search for the right terms).

    Closed Bugs
    Bug ID Synopsis Duplicates
    1Monster inventory problems...30
    10Game crashes unexpectedly22
    1937Error at Spell Quick-Marks12
    1942Crashes on startup (signal 291)10
    99Game hangs when entering puppy cave8

    149Game crashed going down stairs3
    167Arrows, quarrels won't add to ammo stock ...3
    303Identified items not always identified.3

  2. Did you check whether the list of bugs fixed for the next version contains your problem?
  3. Did you check whether the list of bugs known for the current version contains your problem?
  4. Did you check whether your problem is listed elsewhere in the bug database?
  5. Did you make sure that your problem is not described in readme.1st?
If you can answer "yes" to all those questions you may proceed.

Important: Please report but one bug per report... otherwise your bug report most likely will be kicked out of the bug database due to its unwieldy nature!

Bugs! Fill out the following form completely and press the Submit button. Your bug report will be put into the quality assurance queue. If questions remain you will be contacted and further information might be requested from you. If you are the first to submit a real bug, your name will be entered into the credit list. Usually bugs will be fixed in the next release of ADOM.

XBox Console Thomas Biskup recommends: XBox Console
"Yes, I confess it - Microsoft has brought me back into console gaming. And there's a simple reason for it: I don't like hardware, I don't like fiddling with systems and I like to take it easy. The XBox system IMHO is as easy to use as its get. You have a built-in hard disc and never have to think about extensions to be able to save games (memory sticks, yikes :-P ), the games are great, the graphics are great and the price is ok. I have spent many hours playing Star Wars Battlefront and Fable and intend to continue doing this. So for me this is a safe bet and I surly will by the XBox 360 as soon as it is available. Of you want a simple console system with great games you can't go wrong here."

In Association with Amazon Please support this website by going to Amazon through one of the links on this website (if you want to shop at Amazon at all that is ;-). It doesn't cost you any surcharge, but provides me with ADOM-related income. Thanks!
