WG3.3

Post by Aceboy »

I have my BBS installed and running on an old Win XP machine, and I want to move it over to a Win10 machine. I don't seem to have a fresh installer for it, and I can only find WG3.2 online. Anyone have an installer for WG3.3?

Thanks,
Neal

You can just install 3.2 on the new Windows 10 install, and then when you overwrite with your old WGSERV files, it will be back to 3.3. I've done this many many times. :)

Don't forget to make the appropriate Btrieve registry changes on the new machine. You'll find instructions somewhere in these forums.

This is an old thread, but I don't recommend WG3.3. It was started by Galacticomm, but never fully finished or tested. It was released by the remains which wasn't even a legitimate venture (and still isn't) and has some console freeze and other bugs with it.

3.2 is stable.
