  • dos based bulletin door

    From xbit@21:4/10 to All on Thursday, April 29, 2021 08:13:26
    Looking for a dos based bulletin door. I found jp-bull2.zip here http://demonic.net/files.php?id=2 but it only supports like 5 or 6 bulletins. Just need a door that i can toss many door game top scores at. Any ideas?

    I ran DCT Bulletin Generator years ago with RA. I don't remember anymore if there are any limits as to the number of bulletins but it ran well for me and had a nice look to it.

    I left out a /D parameter in the Batch file
    to run the door. I had "czodiac c:\mystic\temp%1\door.sys" should be
    "czodiac /Dc:\mystic\temp%1\door.sys" I must have checked that file at least 10 times. :)

    I've always found getting doors up and running a bit of an adventure.

    Even in the old days when I ran DOS or OS/2. Now on linux I need dosemu (or something similar) and the adventure almost becomes a circus!

    I very much thank door authors who release the source.. :)
