- V2.0
- Congradulations! You have chosen to try a new generation of BBS door
- games designed for the 9600+ modems that have been on the market
- for years. Chaoswar is a fun door game so packed with high speed
- action that a 2400 modem simply won't do.
-
- "How do I add this to the 65,536 doors I already have online?"
- Put all the Chaoswar files in its directory. Have the BBS change
- to the directory and execute CHAOSWAR.EXE. The only command-line
- parameter is the BBS dropfile. For example,
- CHAOSWAR C:\BBS\DORINFO1.DEF
- would run ChaosWar for the user specified in C:\BBS\DORINFO1.DEF.
- The dropfile can also be DOOR.SYS. If your BBS doesn't generate
- DORINFO1.DEF or DOOR.SYS, DON'T PASS UP THE BEST DOOR GAME YOUR
- BBS HAS EVER SEEN! Use a popular converter utility like DoorMaster.
-
- -----------------------------------
- Sample batch file for BBS execution
- -----------------------------------
- @ECHO OFF
- CD\BBS\CHAOSWAR
- CHAOSWAR \BBS\DORINFO1.DEF
- CD\BBS
- -------------------------------------
- Sample batch file for BBS errorlevels
- -------------------------------------
- @ECHO OFF
- :START
- CD\BBS
- RUNBBS
- if errorlevel 12 goto war
- if errorlevel 3 goto quit
- goto START
- :war
- cd CHAOSWAR
- CHAOSWAR ..\DOOR.SYS
- goto START
- :quit
- -------------------------------------
- Under most circumstances, have the BBS execute the batch file without
- exiting by executing the command:
- \COMMAND.COM /C CHAOSWAR.BAT
- Chaoswar uses less than 119K of RAM so you shouldn't have to use an
- errorlevel exit unless the BBS requires it.
- To play ChaosWar locally type CHAOSWAR with no parameters.
-
- If your BBS uses locked bps rates, use the command line option /Lxxxxx
- where xxxxx is the rate. For example:
- CHAOSWAR.EXE DORINFO1.DEF /L115200
-
- If your BBS uses nonstandard or multiport COM ports, you will need to
- specify the port address and IRQ in the file CHAOSWAR.IRQ. If you have
- more than 8 ports that you need to configure, you will need to have
- more than one ChaosWar game. The format of the CHAOSWAR.IRQ file is:
- Port 1 Base Address (hex)
- Port 1 IRQ (decimal)
- Port 2 Base Address (hex)
- Port 2 IRQ (decimal)
- etc... up to 8 ports. I am assuming that it would be impractical to run
- ChaosWar more than 8 times on one computer. If your multi user BBS uses
- seperate computers (like MajorBBS), you will probably not need to use
- nonstandard COM ports.
