    Deleting ".\My Documents\ADOM\adom_steam\*.noe" fixed me nicely. NotEye settings were restored to factory default.

    Being able to recover allowed me to troubleshoot and report this particular bug.

    I've been playing since pre-wilderness, on and off, without a win. I think the first 12 years without spoilers was a waste :D. I hope to win someday, too. Good luck and well met, Whippy.
