Atlantic City BLACKJACK (AC-BJ) - by John P. Corea 6-93
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
DISCLAIMER : While I have tested this door fairly extensively I
make no warranty or guarantee of any kind whatsoever regarding
it's performance or non-performance. Use it at your own risk !
ACBJ is a DOOR game similar to the Blackjack game played in Atlantic
City Casinos. It's a very realistic game and it tracks your money
as if it were real money. You start with 0 and it will keep your
score whether negative or positive. It gives players a chance at
testing their luck at blackjack without losing real money !!
I hate stating the obvious, but just to be perfectly clear, a
negative number means you are losing that much money and
a positive number means you are winning that much money.The
minimum bet is 5 and the maximum is 5000. ACBJ allows insurance,
splitting and double down. Insurance pays 2-1 and BJ pays 3-2
just like in Atlantic City !
A file named "SCORES.TXT" is created which lists all the scores for all
the players .
To RESET all scores simply erase the PLAYER.DAT file.
SETUP: The CONFIGURATION FILE (ACBJ.CFG)
Install ACBJ by editing the configuration file (ACBJ.CFG)
The name of this file is unimportant as long as it ends
with .CFG . This file lets you customize the DOOR for
your BBS. The format of this file is as follows :
1. BBS Name
2. Sysop Name
3. Door Directory (Example: "C:\BBS\DOORS\", must end
with backslash)
4. Door Type
1 = DORINFOx.DEF (x= Node number)
2 = DOOR.SYS
3 = CALLINFO.BBS
4 = CHAIN.TXT
5 = PCBOARD.SYS
5. Status Bar foreground color
6. Status Bar background color
7. Split Screen Chat border foreground color
8. Split Screen Chat border background color
9. Split Screen Chat highlight foreground color
10. Split Screen Chat highlight background color
11. Split Screen Chat text foreground color
12. Split Screen Chat text background color
13. Node number (make sure it matches DORINFOx.DEF
if it is being used)
As you can see, there are 13 lines to this file. You MUST
include all 13 lines !!!
RUN DOOR :
To run ACBJ as a door include ACBJ ACBJ.CFG in the door.bat
To run BJ LOCALLY type ACBJ ACBJ.CFG LOCAL
SPLIT SCREEN CHAT MODE :
Split Screen Chat is activated by the SYSOP pressing the
F10 function key. The screen then divides into two
windows, one for the LOCAL USER (SYSOP) to chat in, and
one for the REMOTE USER. Pressing CTRL-G will send a BEEP
tone to alert the other user. Pressing CTRL-C will clear
the half of the screen the person is using. After chatting
is done, the LOCAL USER (SYSOP) presses ESC to return to
normal DOOR operation. The colors for the CHAT mode are
set in the configuration file (ACBJ.CFG).
The Status Bar appears on the bottom two lines and shows
the current statistics for the user of the door. The stats
displayed are:
-Name of User
-Residence of User
-TL: Time Left
-SL: Security Level
-NN: Node Number
-BR: Baud Rate
The TIME LEFT and the SECURITY LEVEL can be changed LOCALLY
by pressing CTRL [PgUp] and CTRL [PgDn] for the Time Left,
and CTRL [LEFT ARROW] and CTRL [RIGHT ARROW] for the security
level.
FUNCTION KEY ASSIGNMENTS as shown:
F7 = Exit to BBS
F8 = DOS Shell
F9 = Hangup
F10 = Split Screen Chat
