    Hello everyone. Has anyone here ever succeeded in getting this old door game running with Mystic BBS? The game package IS available on line but I've had
    no luck in getting it to run here. Its and old game I used to love playing on-line.

    Thanks,

    Mickey

    I run it in UAE as a standalone server and then telnet to it from my board.

    The source floating around online is buggy as hell.

    It's actually an amiga game which was ported to linux (poorly) twice.

    In a word, no, the Pi uses an ARM processor, which DOSemu doesn't support.

    *HUMONGOUS* also runs on a Pi. When I was first setting up doors, I set up dosemu on my desktop machine (Mint) and then had doors ssh into it from
    the Pi. Don't recall whether I ever fully debugged the setup as I discovered other ways to run the doors I wanted, but if that's a possibility I could dig around and try to remember how I did it. Or you could figure it out yourself; it wasn't too difficult :-)

    Good advice, but this game is an amiga game :) so running on Dos is not an option.

    Ya I've noticed. :-) I never really got it to compile without a bunch of
    errors with solutions that are unknown. damn
