Usurper Board

I was having a similar problem at the Mushroom Cloud BBS, so I decided to take your advice and give TameDOS a shot. Although it did help with some things, it made a number of ANSI screens in 0.20d load terribly slow remotely (local ran fine) and made earlier versions (0.1f is still my favorite) unpl...

Double check to make sure you have Synchronet set to drop a DORINFO1.DEF in the \"Node Directory\" and not the \"Start-up Directory\". By dropping the file in the \"Node Directory\" each player will have a DORINFO1.DEF file. If you choose \"Start-up Directory\"...

Well, I went ahead and disabled the quests in all four games. I have done some pretty extensive testing on it and I can recreate it pretty easily on my BBS server. It works fine on my laptop at home (Windows XP), so it may be some kind of incompatability between Usurper and the software I run on my ...

I have been having some issues with quests in v0.20d for a while now. We run 4 different v0.20d games on the Mushroom Cloud BBS and this happens in all four. Here is what happens: 1) User logs in and accepts a quest 2) User continues to play and is then disconnected somehow. Usually their internet c...

I don't know if this helps, but I run 4 Usurper v0.20d games under my SynchronetBBS and I have not had any issues. I noticed you were using 10 seperate CTL files and that is not necessary. My configuration works with a very simple batch file and I use it for 10 nodes, but have run it on as many as 3...

I run two Usurper games over at the Mushroom Cloud BBS. The first is v0.18 in classic mode which has been running fine for quite some time. The second is v0.20d in new mode which up until a few weeks ago has been running fine also, all be it definitely slower than the v0.18 game. My latest issue is ...

Lenny,

Feel free to list my BBS. I am running Usurper 0.18 in Classic mode and 0.20 in New mode. The URL is http://www.tmcbbs.com or telnet://tmcbbs.com.

Thanks,

Don

I thought I would throw out a new observation here. The lockups always occured when the NPC gang \"Close Circle\" was fighting. I had a player team wipe out \"Close Circle\" and the error hasn't happened since. Also, the \"Close Circle\" team seems to have locked up. Th...

Did Jakob ever make the source code available for download? It would be pretty easy for us to look in there and see what requirements (if any) are defined in the current version. I couldn't find a link to the source anywhere. Lenny, do you know where it is?

Thanks,

Don

For now, I just let it run automatically and check it first thing in the morning. If it is locked up, I reset it and manually run maintenance. If it ran fine, I leave it be. I may write a script to monitor how long the maintenance process has been running and if it runs for more than 30 minutes, can...

He could be the SysOp. A lot of SysOp's (myself included) love to play the games they host. It lets us interact with our callers, and keep an eye on the game in case cheating or abuse is occuring as well as have some fun. However, if they get too powerful and go on the offensive then other players m...

My Usurper nightly maintenance has been locking up on my BBS pretty regularly. I can expect it probably one out of three times. It always hangs when processing the team fights. Has anyone else had this happen? I saw some other posts that made mention of it, but no fies. I am running SynchronetBBS on...
