  • Tradewars 2002 door

    From klunk@21:1/124 to All on Thu May 30 20:18:04 2024
    Hi Everyone,
    Does anyone run tradewars 2002 door on their mystic system? If so do you run the DPMI version or the normal one? Also does anyone have any pointers to installing this door?

    ... That's not a bug, it's an undocumented feature

    I have tradewars but I run the server and have the BBS RLOGIN to it.


    I think I'd kinda rather run the latest one just as a door but I haven't taken the time yet.

    I am running TW2002 (via NetFoss) - Normal?
    Mine will only seem to run on Node1 for some reason.
    I gave up trying as not many users play the game anymore.

    <DD> ... node.bat %3
    ...
    tw2002.exe twnode=%1

    With the dearth of local users these days, I hung up most of my doors
    and use one of the door servers -- I keep some of the Javascript
    single-user games for my own entertainment, but all of the multiplayer
    games I now point to externally-hosted games.

    This also got rid of most of my 16-bit DOS dependencies. I've been
    planning a move to Linux for as long as I've run this board, it would
    seem. :)



    ... It is simply a matter of work

    I had looked into that a few years ago, myself. Do they charge for access? I don't remember.

    A lot of the games I have here, I kept to play locally as well. AROWBRIDGE is one that I've played for years now.

    Hi,
    Yes you do have to register the game if you want to run multiplayer or more than one game at a time. I'm happy to support developers for their efforts.
    Mine is now registered for 6 concurrent games and 10 nodes.

    I was running the door, but no one played it, so I just added a login to BBSLink instead, it works great and one less door that no one uses turned
    into a possible boon.
