DarkStar Development has begun its first game module!

GUNSLINGER

Gunslinger is a module that is based in a teleconference. You can chat with others and as soon as someone tries to go for a weapon, looks at the help file or other such actions in the teleconference, it triggers Gunslinger mode.

You can shoot at others, hit them with chairs but watch out for the sheriff!

You can expect a demo version this to be available by September and then we will begin offering it to SysOps. This will not be a free module but it will be competitively priced for today’s market.

You would be correct in your thinking. I miss that old game but we are doing things a dat bit different than brawl and you'll see.

I will buy this to keep you all going if nothing else. I dont have any great tele games so it sounds great!

In the last few years, none of the bbs systems I've logged on to had any activity in the chat rooms. So, any thing that might help bring back some chat and gaming to a bbs is a good idea.

I'd also like to see poker, tingo (at least I think that's what it was called), blackjack, and the other tele-games be made compatible with the worldlink teleconference. Only thing they'll work on right now is the entertainment teleconferance, and even so, gameport still owns all of these games, and they aren't selling it for some reason...

hmm i got the tele-games source codes lemme see if it will work with the nt telecon and get back with ya.
might have to flip some switches and hammer some walls but its possible.

Sounds good to me.

Storm... get in touch with me via e-mail, if you don't mind - I want to talk about a few things I'm mulling, one of them involves Tele-Games. I'd like to resurrect the old Entertainment Teleconference as a worldlink-capable teleconference...
