      This paper gives further insight into Vámos' conjecture which states that a valuation ring \(R\) of bounded module type is necessarily almost maximal. The author also summarizes the recent results by \textit{F. Couchot} [Commun. Algebra 29, No. 3, 1347-1355 (2001; Zbl 0993.13008) and Ark. Mat. 34, No. 1, 65-72 (1996; Zbl 0855.13006)] in this direction which reduce the proof of this conjecture to the case when \(R\) is a valuation domain with a real valuation. In this paper it is shown that such a valuation domain \(R\) which is not almost maximal admits a \(3\)-generated indecomposable \(R\)-module, but the techniques used in the proof of this result do not produce \(n\)-generated indecomposable \(R\)-modules for \(n \geq 4.\)
