- Hello, Sysop!
-
- Installing a new copy of LEA
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Welcome to Lost Empires of Arcadia. We've attempted to make installing
- ANY SRGame as simple as possible...
- Here are the steps:
-
- 1. Type ARINSTAL to set up the doorfile information and create a
- batch file.
-
- The doorfile information allows BRE to interpret the doorfile
- created by the BBS every time it runs a door. Currently there
- is support for RBBS, GAP, WWIV, Wildcat, GT Power, PCBoard,
- and Spitfire door files.
- The corresponding filenames are DORINFO1.DEF, DOOR.SYS, CHAIN.TXT,
- CALLINFO.BBS, GTUSER.BBS, PCBOARD.SYS, and SFDOORS.DAT. If you need
- another format, read SRDOOR.DOC.
-
- It explains the options:
- ■ Write a replacement for SRDOOR that handles your door format.
- ■ Insert a door file converter program before SRDOOR.
- ■ Send us your door file format and specify which lines contain:
- » Name (First AND Last, or Entire)
- » COM port number
- » baud rate
- » IBM graphics characters enabled? (optional information)
- » ANSI enabled? (optional information)
- » Number of lines on the screen (optional information)
- » Time limit (in minutes) (optional information)
-
- 3. Install the door to run the batch file (LEA.BAT) from the BBS.
- (See your BBS manual if you do not know how to do this.) If you
- have Telegard, TAG, or Spitfire, look at PROBLEMS.DOC to see how to set
- up the menu options to run LEA.
-
- 4. RESET the game with "ARCADIA RESET". *** VERY IMPORTANT ***
-
- Upgrading an older version of LEA
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Just UNZIP the LEA?????.ZIP file --- Your old game will still work, but
- sometimes certain features of the new game may not work correctly. A
- RESET will enable all features of the new version to work, but until then
- you can still continue your old game.
-
- Have fun with the game, and be sure to fill out the registration! If you
- would like to register, read BENEFIT.REG and fill out the form in
- REGISTER.LEA
