MAKE 15 ! V3.0
(C) Copyright 1991 by Robert Poirier
Support BBS: The Parrot's Den BBS
(508) 765-9387
A Solitaire Card Game for PcBoard , GAP and other systems.
------------------------------------------------------------
Welcome to the Make 15 ! The game is fairly simple to play with
all instructions in the door itself. The game is quite simple in
playing. All cards being marked must total 15 (face values) in
the SAME SUIT. Four Jacks, Queens or Kings can only be removed as
a set (50 pts each set). The play board consists of 16 cards. Using
all the cards in a deck gets a bonus of 100 points.
This door is written for BBSes that use 31-line DOOR.sys, PcBoard 11.8,
PcBoard 14.+, Wildcat, RBBS/QBBS dorinfo1.def.

Set up is simple enough. Unzip the files into their own directory
and make the MAKE15.CFG file above. Make a batch file to run the door
as per the enclosed make15.bat file. Make sure you have a copy of the
patched BRUN45.EXE in your path. If you use a converter program
include it in the batch file calling the door.
The command line is : MAKE15 MAKE15.CFG
If you wish to run in local mode use the command line:
MAKE15 MAKE15.CFG LOCAL
MAKE 15 ! Files Included:
--------------------------
MAKE15.EXE <---------------- Make 15 program
MAKE15.DOC <---------------- What You are reading now
MAKE15.CFG <----------------- Configuration File
REGISTER.DOC <--------------- Registration information
MAKE15.BAT <---------------- Sample batch file
MAKE15.DAT <---------------- Created at run time by the door
for holding scores.
All of these files should be in this ZIP, if they are not, don't
take a chance! Call The Parrot's Den and get a good copy or view the
file on a few local boards to see if you can find a complete copy.
BRUN45.EXE (patched for DTR) is needed somewhere in your path
for this program to run. If you don't have a copy, call my board
and download one.
You will also need to modify your doors menu files and the data
level needed to access them. For GAP, these are respectively:
DOORM
DOORMG
DOORS.DAT
Please refer to your BBS documentation for details on
setting up these files.
At any time that you want to redo the scoring, delete the
Make15.dat file created by the door, and the door will reset.
Version 3.0 will update the scoring file as the first caller of
a new month enters the door (keeping the last month high scorer
and deleting the others).
Please read REGISTER.DOC for information on how you can register
your copy of MAKE 15 ! . The bulletin generator and the option to
view scores while playing are only available in the registered
version of Make 15.
Have Fun!
