Re: WTB: Major BBS v6.25 and Major BBS TCP

Duckula talk to Daniel he thinks he can fix this and it would be great to have ICO working right for Free Edition. The way the instructions are when you tell Major BBS to continue after a GP occurs it doesn't log what happen so if I run a game that crashes no GP.OUT for Questman or whoever to look a...

Re: WTB: Major BBS v6.25 and Major BBS TCP

Thanks Kraken, Bloodrock, Duckula and Questman. You are a great bunch of people and have helped me so much. Just a little more work from all of us and I think this Major BBS Free Edition could be perfect. Kraken says it works in DOSBox so we can make a install package to distribute it and make it ea...

Re: WTB: Major BBS v6.25 and Major BBS TCP

Kraken I'm not using FTP to share files to a friend LOL. Once you build this in virtual box all you have is DOS so you need a way to upload files into the VM easy. So to do that I upload the Infinity Complex from my linux machine to the DOS vm through Major BBS FTP server. Thats the best way to get ...

Re: WTB: Major BBS v6.25 and Major BBS TCP

Oh and I only want version 6.5 it if it's permitted by Duckula. The Free Edition of Major BBS is 6.25 but a small subrevision like 6.5 might be ok too we need to see what he says but it's not the Major BBS 7, 9 or 10 that Questman was talking about.

Re: WTB: Major BBS v6.25 and Major BBS TCP

Hey Bloodrock where can I get Major BBS 6.5? I've only got 6.25 any maybe that newer version fixes some of these problems we're having with ICO and the failures. Too bad somebody cant figure out how to use parts from Virecom to fix ICO so that we can use the Major BBS FTP server or not get those ERR...

Re: WTB: Major BBS v6.25 and Major BBS TCP

Kraken I disabled the FTP server but mine still crashes unless I do like step 39 of Duckulas new instructions say and set continue after GP error to YES and set reboot after GP error to NO. Then it just prints the ERROR: GENERAL PROTECTION FAULT like here: https://i.imgur.com/41W3Xc0.png The module ...

Re: WTB: Major BBS v6.25 and Major BBS TCP

OK thank you for checking and I'm glad its not just me. I wonder if we can change some settings to get ICO to work with The Major BBS FTP server. Maybe it's more problems with the dang PIPER/IP. That thing has caused a lot of grief so far. I use the FTP server to get files to the VM it makes is real...

Re: WTB: Major BBS v6.25 and Major BBS TCP

Kraken do you get the ERROR: GENERAL PROTECTION FAULT message in pink when the BBS loads and if you try to ftp in as sysop with the default password of sysop does Major BBS FTP server crash like mine does when ICO is running?

Can you check and see?
