QUICK !! UPDATE INFORMATION IS IN THIS DOC FILE!
5/2/90 Version 1.01
DAMM, Just found a very slight bug that caused a 'file not found
error' if and only if the user enters the game and does not
play. To avoid this error with the 1.00 version you would
have to create a file called geeknow.dat prior to running
the door. This way if the user entered the door and exited
this file would be 'found' and erased.
5/17/90 Version 1.02 --- Sorry, Had to get some RAID to kill another
small bug. If the user had completed playing
the round of questions and the program exited you
would again see a 'file not found' bug. Play and
program operation would not be effected by this
error. It is just another oversite on my part.
This better fix the daggone thing!!
7/27/90 VERSION 1.10
New Additions
- Donator.Txt file added to allow SYSOP to solicit donations
to help register the door.
- Now generates ANSI Bulletin
- Added support for 19,200 Baud Rates ( Untested )
- More descriptive error messages in GEEK.ERR file
- Added delay loop based on computer timer clicks to
standardize time delays within game ( Thank you Bill
Waldheim SYSOP:Data Tamers BBS )
- Added more color throughout program
- Slowed down some display screens which were causing over
write problems with some 9600+ modems when connected with a
slower modem.
- Cleaned up and standardized many of the SYSOP and USER
interfaces.
- Upgraded Maintanance and Bulletin Programs
7/6/91 Version 1.20
- Bell now sounds on the users end after 1 and 2 minutes of
inactivity. Prompt should help user to answer questions instead of
quickly grabbing dictionary to look up answers ! <g>
- Added ability to use DOOR.SYS directly for BBS system that generate
this file.
- The GEEK has been at it again. A total of 2000 General and 1000 Sports
questions are now available. Additionally, smaller packages of questions
added to bring down cost of the door. SEE LAST PAGE OF JTG-BBS3.DOC for
further information !!
- Eliminated most if not all of the UPPER Case display during the game.
- Maintenance program updated and improved
- Version 1.10 has been VERY bug free. V 1.2 hopes to keep it that way!
- Fixed bug with SYSOP playing under alias and not being able to retrieve true
identity from door.
6/6/92 Version 1.30
- Maintenance Release
- Found Network (Lan) bug when starting program which caused the program
to abort with the dreaded 'Hit Any Key' prompt.
- Improve speed of question retrieval in game.
- Fixed bug in JTG Maintenance program that would cause a hang if one of
the game databases was not played for the whole period.
- Visa/MasterCard now accepted for registrations along with ONLINE ordering
on the support board.
2/20/94
- All the Com routines in the game have been updated. The door fully supports
Comports 1-4, IRQ's to 15, Fossil and Digi-Fossil Drivers. BRUN Modules are
NO LONGER NEEDED for the proper operation of the door.
- Added support for RIP, Nothing fancy, the door has been coded to produce
a RIP window when RIP is detected.
- DOOR.SYS is only supported now. Removed the older CALLINFO.BBS Support.
DOOR.SYS is becoming a universal standard for doors. There are
many converters available to get to this door format.
- Updated the JTG-BULL maker for RIP and improved ANSI display.
- Updated JTG-M Maintenance Program.
