Heyas Stoneslinger, I was wanting to know what was the commands and how did you get wg 2 to run inside of wg 3xx. There is alot of games I have in WG2/majorbbs 6.25. That wont run in WG 3xx.


Thanks
Dave

most moduals are made for one version.
i.e. a dos modual won't run on/in a nt wg.
I don't even think a mbbs mod will run on a wg system.

The Wg2 is not "inside" Wg3.2 NT, its just another bbs/computer. The WG 3.2NT accepts all inbound tcip recquests. Once your logged in thru telnet or client you just login to the WG 2 bbs. It runs on another machine, I just set the game comand line in menu tree to telnet to the internal IP 192.___.___.___ . This WG2 machine can only talk to the wg3.2 machine (router cfg) and has no access to the web. You then login again (which is a pain) to the second bbs and select the game. Tw2002 doesnt run in WG3 NT ( not the beta 6 NT like I helped you get running) The last version High Velocity Software completed only runs in WG 1, 2, 3 DOS.

Eventually I will switch to the TWGS and game server, likely after this tw game runs its course and switch the 2nd bbs computer to a game server. . Then I can use rlogin or a door drop file and not have a second login requirement.

The two flavors are completely different files. It would be great if their was some module that would emulate dos WG inside of wg3nt but its probably not possible.
