Hi all, been a long time since i’ve played the game and i want to come back, but i despise the look of the windows terminal and i want to play with cygwin which has a sexy look, however i have no clue on how to do this, so i’m asking for all the good hearted folks around here that can give me a hand with a tutorial of sorts so that i can start playing again 
Thanks…
You sir are a GOD. Thanks
i got the following error at the compile step

make: ccache: No such file or directory
make: *** [Makefile:870: obj/tiles/achievement.o] Error 127
any ideas?
Install ccache.
now it says this:

I don’t know about that one, make an issue.
Thanks, i’ll look into it.
It does not matter how terminal looks in Cygwin as non-SDL builds are not available there, so I suggest you just using MSYS - https://github.com/CleverRaven/Cataclysm-DDA/blob/1e9533926517037193edc5e7ff9e1ad87c2ce5f9/doc/COMPILING/COMPILING-MSYS.md
Thanks i’ll look it up.
Ok the thing is i run the game and it has it´s own window which i can´t customize colors with, and that´s the main reason i used cywin to begin with, is there a way to customize the background black color to another?
i want to customize colors like this https://preview.redd.it/ba5k9gs1y8w01.png?width=960&crop=smart&auto=webp&s=b427e2628d7d2f3e6d952c959b9ef2f2a745fedc
base_colors.json in config folder.
