After quitting the game, either through user interaction, BBS disconnect or a 3 minute timeout, it passes control back to the BBS. DOSBox fires up, creates the mounted directories inside it, starts the Fossil driver, starts DoorWay, and runs the game. After that, it looks to see which game is being called, adds the last two CFG lines (which I'll discuss a bit later), and finally starts DOSBox. Then it creates a custom CFG file in the CFG directory for DoorWay to use, based on the game name passed from the BBS menu. It creates that as well if it doesn't exist, then xcopies the source game to their personal directory. It moves on to the next step, which is to see if the game they're calling from the BBS exists in their user number directory. The batch first checks if each user's custom directory exists based on their BBS user number. IF NOT EXIST c:\games\!u_games\%4\%1\NUL GOTO NOGAMEDIR IF NOT EXIST c:\games\!u_games\%4\NUL GOTO NOUSERDIR IF EXIST C:\games\!u_games\%4\%1\NUL GOTO EXISTS If your setup so far is exactly like mine, you'll need to put this in off
If you can polish yours to be more streamlined, go for it. I named mine DOOR.BAT, but you can name it whatever you like. Create a new one in your DoorWay directory. Here we're going to create the batch file.

for serial 1, set it like this:Īnd close the config, saving your changes. Make sure serial 2, 3 and 4 are set to disabled. When you get near the bottom, you'll see a section named. That includes all sound emulation, joystick, mouse, etc. Go through the entire config and turn off anything that you won't be using. Once it's created, head to that directory and open it up.

I'm using Windows XP for my BBS, so DOSBox will create the default config file in:Ĭ:\Documents and Settings\\Local Settings\Application Data\DOSBox\nfīut you can see where it creates it on any version of Windows you run just by running DOSBox for the first time and looking at the DOSBox status window. Uncompress BNU into a temp directory, and just move BNU.COM over to your DoorWay directory. Uncompress them into their respective directories. Also, create a directory in your DOORWAY directory named CFG.
I used C:\DOORWAY and C:\DOSBOX for mine. It HAS to be in a window, and can't have anything other than text and ANSI graphics.Ĭreate a directory somewhere on your hard drive for both DoorWay and DOSBox. Now create a directory named !U_GAMES in your GAMES directory.īefore getting too involved with the rest of this how-to, run each game to make sure it works. Don't worry about directory naming conventions (8 characters or less), since DOSBox will be mounting each game to its own root directory when fired up. Each game to its own directory inside the GAMES directory. This isn't a complete list at all, just the ones I grabbed and ran.Ĭreate a directory for whichever games you downloaded I used C:\GAMES. The Adventures of Alice Who Went Through the Looking-Glass and Came Back Though Not Much Changed Keep in mind that you're going to be limited to text and ANSI colors, and the games can't be running in full-screen. I'd *highly* suggest registering ( local DoorWay file here). It's shareware, so it's limited to 10 minutes per use.

Either do a Google search for it, or head to and download it from there. The latest version is on the website, but doesn't seem to have it listed on the main page. Now you're going to need DoorWay to Unlimited Doors (hereafter called DoorWay). BNU can be found at, while x00 can be found with a Google search ( local BNU file here, local X00 file here) x00 v1.53 and BNU v1.70 are the last, stable releases. I personally use BNU, but again, whichever you prefer. x00 or BNU will work, since they seem to be the easiest to load and use. (**NOTE** Most of the links to download that particular flavor and version are fake adware pushers, so here's the real thing if you don't want to take your chances: link) I used EmuCR fromīut you can use whichever you like, as long as socket inheritance is fixed in that version.
DOSBox requires this to run.Īs of this writing, the latest stable release of DOSBox (v0.74) has a broken socket inheritance, so you're going to be grabbing an SVN release.

A how-to on getting DOSBox to work with Mystic BBS (Windows version)įirst of all, if you don't already have it, install Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 SP1.
