Netsurge (The Diskshop BBS) KILLED
Lockedown (Mystic Island BBS) in battle.
I see how it is...
Hoping to have some time to get this setup soon. Never having looked
into this. Does it matter which version of LORD I have installed? IGMs?
Currently InterLORD will not allow any other IGMS, that is by design. I have been compiling a list of allowable IGMS that I will release shortly.
Yeah, I answered all my questions once I took a look at the archives you sent. Its been a very busy summer thus far. Lots of projects at work
and home. I have the game section setup and lord406 running. Now Im looking for the interbbs.cfg and igminfo.dat files Im told you sent me.
Now that we have the InterLORD game up and running properly with a few systems (still looking at you Ryan, lol).
I'd like to open up a conversation about the following:
Reset Times - I was thinking the first day of the month, seeing as the game just got underway a few days ago, we should be good until August 1.
IGMS - Currently I have the rules set to no IGMS and Interlord checks
each system to make sure that is the case. I'd like to work on a list of
5 or 6 IGMS that the league will allow. I really don't have much experience or exposure to IGMS so anyone with any knowledge and ideas of what would work, I am all ears.
I'd be happy to donate a few Ballistic Labs IGMs to the cause.
Tell me about this Ballistic Labs IGM.
Don't you intently review my BBS Ad listings? ;)

Im good with that. However, seems better to get five or six systems on then do a reset. Im personally about 5 days behind the game. In LORD that can be an eternity...

Things I put in parentheses Netsurge cannot see right?
I do -- Your ANSi ads are fantastic but in a simple non over the top way -- is this related to the one with the cool medieval portraits? Coldrake CastlPe or something like that?
Try it out. I think you will enjoy it. If Frank approves it then
anyone who joins the League gets a free reg code. Hell, anyone who asks can get a free regcode. ;) Its too damn late to get rich off of these things <sigh>...

The Castle ColdDrake IGM was written in ummmmm, 94/95 I think? I worked with a local folk artist KJ Radkey to develop the storyline then coded
it and created the simple ansi graphics. It sold probably 100 units so
I never really got rich on it. It did fare quite well with the IGM Curmudgeon in his reviews though he never really liked our install
routine which basically is a 'hands-off' installer. He complained that installing IGMs wasnt 'that hard' and that it used too much memory... hahahaha! He also said that it was one of the only IGMs that he truly enjoyed following the storyline.

Nice I will check it out. Even better if we do put it on the current Interlord allowed IGMs. Least we can show off your work again!

Port it to iOS and put it up on Apple's App Store, you are sure to get rich off of it.
You joke but I for a short time tried to port over "Mystic Island" to
iOS but it wasn't worth trying to convert ANSI graphics over to an iOS application. I always wanted to keep the BBS terminal feel to the game.

I'm all about breaking barriers as you can probably tell already. I'm working on getting an old dos emulation card working in my Amiga and working on some software to use dos emulation on Amiga OS3 (a 30 year
old OS) so that I can run the InterBBS games on my Amiga BBS, Hysteria.
And funny that the hands off installer would get the part of the review. But we did feel like we had a lot more control back then and when
someone did something we did not see or do ourselves it made us nervous
-- least some of us.
hahahaha! Have you ever worked software support? I am of the opinion
that some folks should just stay afk! ;)
Can you check your logs as see why your system didn't take the reset last night in InterLORD.
There is no way you could be at level six in 12 hours.
I just reset it manually today, not sure what's going on with it. But, yeah. I'm likely still going to wipe and re-install it, while I still
have the ibbs stuff setup with it, but, I've been trying to reach out
to GamePort for issues I'm having, specifically with the registration stuff. I've gotten no reply in already 1 week of waiting. Kinda
annoying. :)

I'm surprised they are still supporting anything in todays day and age. Besides John Dailey and all of their stuuf, I don't know many other companies out there that are still supporting old BBS software.
I think it's pretty much deemable as abandonware at this point. And I'm not shelling out one red cent for someone that doesn't even take the
time to spend a 5 minutes to give a simple reply. So Hmmmmmmmm.... Now, how to actually FIX the issue at hand where it keeps saying my registration is "illegally registered" (yet, it's not, just GamePort
won't respond!) ===

What version of LORD are you running?
4.06, I... think. Seems difficult to verify that since lordcfg, in the node editor anyway, says 4.02m, but the whatsnew file says 4.06.

I'm running 4.06 and have had no issues with registration. That is
reallu weird.

Yeah. Once I went to the Trainer enough times, at a certain point, it stopped letting me, with the whole thing saying "Since the sysop illegally registered their LORD...." etc etc...
I was... Pissed, to say the least. ;)
Howdy!
I have Lord 4.06 and Interlord set up. Would like to join the IBBS
league for Lord, when you get a chance!
