- INSTALLATION OF THE DOOR:
- -------------------------
-
-
- USING THE INSTALL PROGRAM:
- --------------------------
-
- I have made a program called INSTALL that will automatically
- make the BJ.CFG file needed to run the program.
-
-
- 1. First create a directory for the program and
- place all the files in that directory.
-
- C:\WILDCAT\DOOR\BJ (whatever you BJ door directory will be)
-
- 2. Below is what the BJ.CFG file should look like.
-
- Line one is the path to your door, which
- should be the same as your path above.
-
- Line two is the name of your BBS
-
- Line three MUST have a 0 (zero) on this line. (Or 1 (one)
- for PCBoard).
-
- Line four is your name that you use on your
- BBS.
-
- Line five is where you specify if you are running at lock
- baud or not. If you are running lock baud then enter the
- baud rate....ie 9600 or 19200 or 38400. Enter 0 for
- none.
-
- Line six is where you specify what type of BBS system you
- have.
-
- Line seven is where you let the game know if it should
- allow doubledown features and when.
-
- Line eight is where you tell if you want the Black Jack
- Screen to display in the background.
-
- Line 9 is where you will specify what the ANSI file path
- and name will be.
-
- Line 10 is where you will specify what the ASCII file path
- and name will be.
-
-
- Okay here is what the whole thing should look
- like after you finish:
-
- C:\WILDCAT\DOOR\BJ
- The Lighthouse BBS
- 0 (or a 1 for PCBoard)
- Danny Davis
- 19200 or 0 for none
- 0,1, or 2
- 0 or 1
- WC3
- C:\WILDCAT\BULL\BULL1.ANS
- C:\WILDCAT\BULL\BULL1.ASC
-
-
- 3. Okay now lets look at are batch file to start
- the game.
-
- WILDCAT 2.X Door#.bat (callinfo.bbs)
- --------------------------------
-
- cd\wildcat\door\BJ
- copy c:\wildcat\callinfo.bbs
- BJ
- BJbull
- cd\wildcat
- cat
-
- Callinfo.bbs has to be copied to the game path. If it
- doesn't find the Callinfo.bbs file then it will exit
- back to the BBS.
-
-
- WILDCAT 3.0 (door.sys)
- ----------------------
-
- This will run the same as above except instead of copying
- callinfo.bbs you'll copy the DOOR.SYS file.
-
-
- QuickBBS & DORINFOx.DEF (a TYPE 15 for QuickBBS)
- -----------------------
-
- You may specify up to 9 different DorinfoX.def 's by
- using the install program.
-
-
- d:
- cd\doors\BJ
- copy c:\qbbs\dorinfo2.def
- BJ
- BJbull
- c:
- cd\qbbs
- goto restart
-
- DORINFOx.DEF has to be copied to the game path. If it
- doesn't find the DORINFOx.DEF file, then it will exit
- back to the BBS.
-
- To run as a type 7 (for QuickBBS), simply put the BJ.BAT
- file in the QuickBBS directory, using "*C /C BJ.BAT" in
- the optional data line in the type 7 menu. (there are
- other ways to do it, this is the easiest).
-
-
- GAP and PCBOARD (door.sys)
- --------------------------
-
- door#.bat
- cd\door\BJ
- BJ
- BJbull
- cd\gap
- gap
-
-
- Maintenance :
- -------------
- Also enclosed is a maintenance file that needs to be ran
- once a day to keep the player.dat file clean. By passing
- a number value from 8-30 you can specify how many days you
- will allow a user to stay in the door before being deleted.
-
- i.e. "MAINT 17" this allows 17 days before a player is
- deleted for non-use
-
- BJBULL :
- --------
- This file can be ran each time the door is exited. It will
- make a ANSI and a ASCII Bulletin from the information you
- specify in your installation module.
-
- Page and Comm Control Files :
- -----------------------------
- Read the PAGE.CTL and COMM_IRQ.CTL files and configure it
- to meet your needs.
-
- Local Mode :
- ------------
- To run the game in LOCAL mode just type /LOCAL after the
- BJ.EXE on the command line "BJ /LOCAL".
-
-
-
- Multi - Line BBS :
- ------------------
- Well this is a rather simple task. When you run the install
- program you can pick upto 4 different configuration files.
- To run this door as a multi door all you need to do is place
- the following statement:
-
- BJ BJ1.CNF
-
- And so on for the rest of the configuration files. The
- reason for this is so you may specify the different
- LOCKBAUD rates for each node.
-
-
- Support BBS :
- -------------
-
- The Lighthouse BBS Midnight Madness
- 209-442-8329 209-252-8466
- Fido Net 1:205/75 Fido Net 1:205/76
-
- Both Systems Run On A
- US ROBOTICS DUAL STANDARD
-
- Registration of this door will cost you $12.50 plus shipping
- and handling. With your registration you will receive a key file
- that will work with all future versions of Black Jack.
