Question to all Lord sysops and players that know of LordNet..

Over the past 4 hours, I've been going over the LordNet source, and have come to a conclusion.

Either it needs to be rewritten from the ground up.. Or deleted and never worked on again.

So, I'm asking you guys. Is it really worth my time and effort to rewrite the IGM.. Or should I kill it off, and let bad code go to the garbage bin?


(P.S. No, I would not allow anyone else to take over development. Lordnet accesses files that should not be accessed, and thus I cant give out the
source due to NDA reasons.)

If there is enough interest in InterBBS L.O.R.D. games, I'd say yes.
There's an InterBBS deal within The Realm Of Vanadia IGMs, but I forget
what it actually is offhand.

Do me a favor.. zip up _everything_ in your lordnet dir and email it to me at mike@lordlegacy.com .. I need some route.cfg files and other whatnot to
dissect to help determine what all LordNet is doing

(Thats how bad the code is)

Well, I have them working over here.

>now that I am a LC I have that one in the Non-Approved list

That one was in the approved list of the DGN (doorgames network),
along with 7 others.

For the record, I have L.O.R.D. 4.06 on Synchronet, under Windows XP
(that SLOW <MORE> deal that I had under Windows 98 is gone under
XP)...and the game has 38 IGMs by such folks as Ken Weitzel, Donald
Tidmore, Nannette Thacker, Bryan Turner, and Marty Blankenship, among
others.

Has anyone gotten LordNet to run properly under dosemu? I keep getting a runtime erro when running it. I have tried to patch the exe with tppatch but still no luck.

Anyone?
