This program has been tested on the following systems :
-------------------------------------------------------
WILDCAT 2.x and 3.x,
Gap v4.0 and greater,
PcBoard v14.0 or greater,
QuickBBS v2.6 thru v2.75,

Remote Access.
Spitfire BBS
This program should also work with other DORINFOx.DEF producing BBS's,
such as RBBS and SuperBBS. For other BBS's not mentioned, there are MANY
door conversion utilities available.
This door will also run under Desqview.
Installation Of The Door :
==========================
Step One :
----------
First create a directory for the program and place all the files into
that directory.
i.e. C:\WILDCAT\DOOR\VIDEO (whatever your DOOR directory will be)
Step Two :
----------
Use the install program to configure the configuration file to meet
your specifications.
Contents Of The Configuration File :
------------------------------------
Line one is the path to your dropfile.
Line two is the name of your BBS
Line three is your name that you use on your
BBS.
Line four is where you specify what type of BBS software you
have.
Line five is where you specify if you are running at lock
baud or not. If you are running lock baud then enter the
baud rate....ie 9600 or 19200 or 38400. Enter 0 for
none.
Line six is to tell if you wish to have page available or not.
1 = YES 0 = NO
Line seven is the total time you wish a user to be on the door
at one given time.
Line eight is how many times a user may play the game per day.
Line nine is the IRQ information for comm port 3
Line ten is the IRQ information for comm port 4
Line eleven is where you let the game know what card type to use.
You may make the cards random or use one specific card.
Line twelve is where you tell the game if the player can win on
any pair or JACKS or BETTER.
Line thirteen is where you will specify the ASCII Bulletin path
and filename.
Line fourteen is where you will specify the ANSI Bulletin path and
filename.
Here is the completed file :

03E8 3
02E8 4

0 or 1
C:\WILDCAT\BULL\BULL1.ANS
C:\WILDCAT\BULL\BULL1.ASC
BBS Batch Files :
=================
WILDCAT 2.X (CALLINFO.BBS) :
----------------------------
CD\WILDCAT\DOOR\VIDEO
VIDEO
VPBULL
CD\WILDCAT
CAT
WILDCAT 3.X (DOOR.SYS) :
------------------------
Same as above
QuickBBS & DORINFO#.DEF (a Type 15 for QuickBBS) :
---------------------------------------------------
You may specify up to nine different DORINFO#.DEF's by using the
install program.
D:
CD\DOORS\VIDEO
VIDEO
VPBULL
C:
CD\QBBS
GOTO RESTART
To run a type 7 (for QuickBBS), simply put the VIDEO.BAT file in the
QuickBBS directory, using "*C /C VIDEO.BAT" in the optional data line in
the type 7 menu. (there are other ways to do it, this is the easiest).
GAP and PCBOARD :
-----------------
C:
CD\DOOR\VIDEO
VIDEO
VPBULL
CD\GAP
GAP
Maintenance :
-------------
Also enclosed is a maintenance file that needs to be ran
once a day to keep the player.dat file clean. By passing
a number value from 8-30 you can specify how many days you
will allow a user to stay in the door before being deleted.
i.e. "MAINT 17" this allows 17 days before a player is
deleted for non-use
VPBULL :
--------
This file can be ran each time the door is exited or as a
nightly event. I recommend after the door exits. It will
make a ANSI and a ASCII Bulletin from the information you
specify in your installation module.
Page Control Files :
-----------------------------
Read the PAGE.CTL file and configure it
to meet your needs.
Local Mode :
------------
To run the game in LOCAL mode just type /LOCAL after the
VIDEO.EXE on the command line "VIDEO /LOCAL".
Multi - Line BBS :
------------------
Well this is a rather simple task. When you run the install
program you can pick upto 4 different configuration files.
To run this door as a multi door all you need to do is place
the following statement:
VIDEO VIDEO1.CNF
And so on for the rest of the configuration files. The
reason for this is so you may specify the different
LOCKBAUD rates for each node.
Support BBS :
-------------
The Lighthouse BBS
209-252-7968
Fido Net 1:205/75
US ROBOTICS DUAL STANDARD
Registration of this door will cost you $15.00 plus shipping
and handling. With your registration you will receive a key file
that will work with all future versions of Video Poker.
