  • Door games on win 10 64

    From Sparky@21:1/192 to All on Sun Jan 17 00:00:34 2021
    So I set up netfoss and NTDVM64 and was able to set up LORD to run locally
    but when i test it via another computer in my house using netrunner all I get is a black screen for second then back to the DOOR's menu. Anyone had luck with this or should I bite the bullet and install WIN 10 32 bit.

    OK So I bit the bullet and changed to WIN10 32 bit and so far Mystic itself
    is running fine no problems. But I tried to run LORD using WinFoss and I
    still have the issue it where it exits the BBS, then a blank screen for a few seconds then right back to the BBS. So far I have followed the txt file in
    the docs to the letter. Anything I should be looking at?

    I have not done this but as a starter to debug I'd suggest look at the node logs to see what is being passed to the door when it runs, you will also want to double check your door exe menu command line

    Mine is a Win7 32bit system but here's my command line for the menu item

    Command ³ (D3) Exec DOOR32 program
    Data ³ c:\netfoss\nf.bat /N%3 /H%0 c:\doors\lord\start.bat %3

    My nf.bat has this in it

    @echo off
    c:\netfoss\netfoss.com %1
    rem ** If running a non-door32.sys system, add a " %1" to end of above line ** if errorlevel 1 goto end
    c:\netfoss\netcom.exe %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9
    c:\netfoss\netfoss.com /u
    :end

    the start.bat in my lord game has this

    C:
    CD\DOORS\LORD
    @ECHO OFF

    IF "%1" == "" GOTO NOSTART

    IF EXIST INFO.%1 DEL INFO.%1
    IF EXIST DO%1.BAT DEL DO%1.BAT

    :BEGIN
    LORD.EXE %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 /DREW
    IF ERRORLEVEL 255 GOTO DONE
    IF ERRORLEVEL 254 GOTO DO1
    GOTO DONE

    :DO1
    CALL DO%1.BAT
    GOTO BEGIN

    :NOSTART
    CALL START.BAT 0
    GOTO REALDONE

    :DONE
    IF EXIST INFO.%1 DEL INFO.%1
    IF EXIST DO%1.BAT DEL DO%1.BAT

    :REALDONE


    hope this helps
