  • door game lunatix 4.3a

    From Rixter@RICKSBBS to all on Tue Oct 22 14:55:34 2024
    You can get this door in the lunat43a.zip file. I can get the door to run on the BBS but it runs at 300 baud for some reason. Very slow. It can take 5 minutes to get to the start menu. I can play it fine on BBSLINK and other BBS's. I have a friend that got it to work through DOSBOX-X just beautifully. I am curious to understand why it runs so slow on my BBS I am running synchronet 3.19b. I am running synchronet bbs on a 64 bit windows 10 computer operating with NTVDMX64. I am also curious to understand dosbox-x more and can I run it with NTVDMX64 operating at the same time? If anyone has any tips I would greatly appreciate it. I have access to the door game through BBSLINK but I prefer to run my own for the challenge of setting it up and watching it run. It is a fun game. I enjoyed the challenged of ThunderCat V3.30 and the door file solution. I would love to find out why this one runs so slow on my BBS. I tried different door drop file types, playing the the cts/rts , fossil no fossil options and locked rates, to no effect. I must be missing an obvious combination. I have never had a door asking me to set up cts/rts and the 8n1 7e1 options before and the other settings for port numbers were new to me as well. Thanks guys let me know. Have a good day.

    This is really not the right messsage area to discuss door game problems/configurations. Can I suggest the Synchronet Sysops conference instead? Would be happy to discuss more, but in the proper place.

    Looks like he's the message author, so he's supposed to write a message then quote himself?
