Now that we have Mega Slots and InterLORD up and running I am going to start working on Zombie Slots and Clans.

Who wants in?

Just reaching out to the sysops who aren't part of the InterBBS gaming league here on SciNet.

One of our focuses here is InterBBS gaming. We had a great initial setup of systems, but since then it has died down and we need some new blood to get
the games going again.

If you are interested in joining any of the InterBBS games then let me know.
We currently offer the following games and are open to add any new ones that people might want:

- Barren Realms Elite
- Falcons Eye
- The Acadian Legend
- InterLord
- GAC Blackjack
- Mega Slots
- Zombie Slots
- Clans
- Arrowbridge 2
- Tradewars 2002

You can grab all the files you need to get the game(s) going from the SciNet Info pack at https://diskshop.ca/scinet

This is on my list to setup - but too many other things to do :)

I'll get around to it eventually...

Nice, hope the maintenance goes smooth saturday, remember no beers until
after! =]

I'll stick my toe in the water, can you set me up for blackjack and we'll
go from there. I haven't set one up before but I already have this game installed.

Do you have a batch file that copies the files locally or do I need to
figure that out myself?

The SciNet info pack includes instructions on what you need to do,
especially with moving packets around.

I'll get you added and send you the needed league file for the game.

I have dropped the needed interbbs.cfg file in your inbound folder.

If you need any help getting it going, just let us know in this echo. There
are quite a few of us here who are proficient with getting interbbs dos doors going.

There is also a detailed setup guide for each game we offer in the SciNet InfoPack.

Thanks, I have everything set up (I think) how do I get the prog to produce some output to the outbound dir? I played a couple of test games and it will pull in files but nothing comes out the other end. I also ran the indound:maintenance:outbound script and nothing in outbound folder.

I didn't have a IBBS script/batch of any sort and just cobbled one
together. Do any of you that have actual skills at this wanna share yours on here maybe?

Give us a little more to work with. Have you moved the interbbs.cfg file I dropped into your inbound? Have you followed the steps outlined in the bjsetup.txt file in the info pack, especially the part about creating a
filebox for your connection back to my system? Also, what OS are you using?
Is it windows or are you running the game under dosemu?

hey Frank, I'm running mystic on Windows 32bit and..

Give us a little more to work with. Have you moved the interbbs.cfg file
I dropped into your inbound? Have you followed the steps outlined in the bjsetup.txt file in the info pack, especially the part about creating a

yes I copied the file into the game folder, and created a filebox here: C:\mystic\filebox\scinet_z77n1n100
and did follow the rest of the setup.txt. I added a bit to my mailin-bat that copies interbbs.cfg into the game folder when it arrives from you. looks like this:
-------------
:IBBS file move
if exist \mystic\echomail\in\interbbs.cfg goto move
goto start
:move
cd\mystic\echomail\in\
move interbbs.cfg \mystic\doors\IBBS\bj77\
goto start
-------------

the gac_bj section of the batch I created for IBBS looks like this so far. -----------------------------
CD\MYSTIC\DOORS\IBBS\BJ77\
GAC_BJ.EXE INBOUND
REM GAC_BJ.EXE MAINTAIN <- now nightly in task scheduler
GAC_BJ.EXE OUTBOUND
REM Move files to League 77 filebox
if exist \mystic\doors\IBBS\bj77\outbound\bj*.77 goto move
goto next
:move
cd\mystic\doors\ibbs\bj77\outbound\
move *.77 \mystic\filebox\scinet_z77n1n100

--------------------------
what a mess right, go easy on me =]

Alright, a few things....

You don't need this as you will never see that file again come in manually to your inbound. Any updated interbbs.cfg file that might be sent to your system in the future will be included in the bj*.77 file. You only need to copy it over when you join the league game.

The rest of your script looks good. You need to play the game before your system starts to produce game packets.

I just checked my logs and you have been getting bj05*.77 files. Can you
verify that they are no longer in your inbound and that gacbj is processing them.

There should also be a gac0.log file in the root path of your gacbj install. Take a look in there to make sure nothing is failing or segfaulting.

ok, Wasn't sure about this the game docs were a little vague. it's gone.

Inbound is empty, and the log looks like this:
---------- Sun 15 Sep 119, Tournament Blackjack v2.30

15:10:21 Ratz entering door
15:10:22 Receiving inbound information

---------- Sun 15 Sep 119, Tournament Blackjack v2.30

15:10:22 Ratz entering door
15:10:23 Sending Outbound information

I guess I will get playing and see what happens.
Thanks again for taking the time!

I guess the PKZIP being missing fixed your issue as I am now getting game packets from your system and they are being processed correctly.

w00t!

I have had some time to focus on the InterBBS games on SciNet. Things
have started to pickup and there seems to be quite a bit of action in
some of the games.

Here is a current list of the active games that you can join:

Mega Slots
InterLORD
Zombie Slots
Clans
GAC Blackjack
Barren Realms Elite
Falcons Eye
Arrowbridge 1
Arrowbridge 2
For Honor
Galactic Dynasty
TradeWars (Via a TWGS that you can connect to via rlogin at twgs.diskshop.ca)

If you want in on any of them just let me know and I will get you
setup. I have detailed setup instructions in the SciNet Info and SciNet
IBBS packs that get hatched weekly from my system. You can also pickup
the latest pack from https://scinet-ftn.org. I will be hatching out a
new pack later tonight with setup instructions for Arrowbridge 1 and 2.

If there are games that we currently don't offer that you would like us
to offer please don't hesitate to let me know and I will get them setup
and added to the list/packs.

Thanks everyone.
