- Welcome to The "Total Amnesia Door" By James Syriac < Copyright (C) 1992,93 >
-
- Now Allows Online Play between Sysop and User! even UnRegistered!
-
- If Registered:
-
- Allows The Sysop to configure How many Games per Day a User can
- Play from 1 to 6 games/day. Default is 3...
- Allows Sysop to Set the Amount of Chances in the games the user
- Has. Between 20-80 for the Normal Game and 40-160 for the
- Difficult game!
- Defaults are 40 and 80....
-
- Note: Dual play Game chances will be set to half of whatever the
- Settings are for solo games. (for each player) such as
- solo 40 then dual is 20 each....
-
- Note: Sysop is locked out when its the user turn on Online Games except for
- the keys (Q,Y,N). Also the user is locked out when it's Sysop's turn!
- Sysop always has access to the CTRL keys...
-
-
- How to Install Total Amnesia:
-
- Put the Amnesia.exe into its own directory. (recommended)
- If Registered put the cfg file in same Directory!
- Amnesia.exe will create all it's own files needed for the Game
- as it runs!
-
- Amnesia.ctl < Control File >
-
- Amnesia.scr < Score File (Actual scores kept here)
-
- ReRoll the Door by Deleteing both the CTL and SCR files.....
-
- Note: The door will Reroll itself the first time its entered
- in a new month! (Does not Delete files. Just overwrites)
- (Saves the last months top scorer info)
-
- Register it and you will get a Registration Number to allow the
- Sysop to set up the game as he wishes within the limits detailed
- Below in the config file!
-
-
-
- Exmp:
- Amnesia d:\gap\door.sys d:\gap\amn\amnesia.cfg
- BBS file ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
- Registered Version add >.CfG file ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-
- Unregistered Bat file should: change directory to the amnesia door directory.
- execute Amnesia (add Path to DOOR.SYS on the
- command line)
-
- Note: Amnesia was written for Gap and Door.sys is the
- Most likely Door info file to be reliable...
- I Recommend Converting to Door.sys if your BBS
- Doesn't generate Door.sys
-
- c:
- cd\BBS\DoorDir
- Amnesia c:\gap\door.sys
- cd\BBS
- etc...
-
- Registered Door: Same as above except add the Cfg file path after
- the BBS file. Put the CFG file in same Dir.
- Amnesia c:\gap\door.sys c:\doordir\amnesia.cfg
- on the command line in the batch file....
-
- Other BBS types than GAP may be able to use their own Sys file
- instead of Door.sys but may not! Try using it if you want.
- I only have been able to test it on Gap BBS's
-
- Note DorinfoX.def doesn't read correctly >>> convert to Door.sys!
-
- It should work with DOOR.SYS and With most conversion programs to Door.sys!
-
- MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE PATH RIGHT!
-
- If you use an invalid filename it will just ignore the cfg if it doesn't
- find the file! or if it does not contain the correct REG number!
- Don't give a path and filename for a CFG file if the door is unregistered,
- Just the BBS file path and name.
-
- <THE CFG FILE> Can be made with a none formatting text editor...
-
- Board Name:
- Sysop Name:
- Registration Number: <Your #>
- Max Games per user at a time: 1 to 6 Default is 3 Note same as unregistered!
- Set Chances for Normal Game: 20-80 Default is 40
- Set Chances for Difficult Game: 40-160 Default is 80
- Include a comment line up to 67 chars for Credit to user or something!
-
- Example:
-
- Tall Peoples BBS
- John Smith
- 23456
- 4
- 50
- 90
- If you like this game Tell your friends!
-
- If the info is invalid the program will ignore the info and use the defaults.
-
- For the Registration Send ($10 Donation suggested) to: James Syriac
- 138 Dennison CrossRoad
- (Please use Registration form in Register.doc) Southbridge Ma. 01550
-
- Include a list stating exactly how you want the Sysop Name Spelled,and Case
- ------- And the BBS name...
-
- I recommend The Sysop name match exactly as the the BBS shows it to you so the
- door can match it up when the Sysop is in the door to the reg file!
-
- The exit screen will show Registered to (Sysop Name) of (BBS Name).
-
- Send any Questions or Comments to same address!
-
- To ReRoll the Door all you need to do is delete the Amnesia.ctl and
- Amnesia.scr files!
-
- Note: The door will handle LOST CARRIER and DUMP USER (Sysop Option) and return
- the BBS. Also will return to BBS if a key is not detected in so many
- minutes. (About 5 minutes!) Sounds beeps as a warning...
-
- For Online Play instructions see online.doc

-
- Thanks for your interest in Total Amnesia!
-
- Best Place to look for newest Releases is: The Parrots Den BBS
- 508-765-9387
- Support BBS >>> Southbridge, MA.
-
- PcBoard may use PcBoard.sys if it runs correctly but I Recommend Door.sys
- Note: Beep warning will not be heard with PcBoard.sys
-
- WWIV <Oh Well> I Recommend You convert Chain.txt to Door.sys with DM521
- It's Door Master and can convert to door.sys using the Alias!
-
- DM521.ZIP can be found on The Support BBS above!
-
- Note:
- Door.sys Only:
- I incorperated a Beep Warning if the time limit gets to within
- 5 minutes left. It will beep 5 times for five min and 4 for 4 etc..
- If the BBS kicks you out of the door prematurely the game will not be
- saved so I recommend you finish what you can and exit the door before
- time expires. The door does not exit for that itself. Only if the BBS
- drops the door is that a problem... The Time is only watched while
- waiting input in the door so if your in chat mode or the screen is
- redrawing when the Beep would sound you will hear it when you exit chat
- or the screen finishes. (Might beep fast or more than one set if more
- than one minute pasts during chat)...
- If the BBS does not kick the user out of the door then after the
- five sets of beeps it should continue as normal.. But you will see the
- BBS boot off the user when they exit the door!
- The beeps are just a warning and the door does nothing else
- about it.
