Murder Hotel
Programmed by Ed Burhop
(Better known as Packer Fan)
Sysop of The Aftermath BBS(@8252 WWIVNET)
(812)877-2122 (24 hours)
This game was patterned after the C64 bbs game Murder Motel by
Shawn Wagle. I never saw the code, just the game and this is
original code written in C. This is Shareware and the
Registration is $10. This will get you the source code which
will allow you to change the room names and anything else you
want. This is not copy protected and it won't quit after 2 weeks
or anything stupid like that but if you like it send me the $10
and I will be encouraged to write more WWIV doors. Keep in mind
this was my first crack at it...but I think it is pretty good.
Any suggestions for improvements to this door or Ideas for new
doors just Email me on my board above or on GEnie
as E.Burhop1.
This game is the ultimate in ease to install. Just unarc it in
your bbs directory and run initmh.exe, this initializes the
game. Add the BBS to your chains as follows:
Murderh.exe %1
and you are in business.......the following files are included
in the archive.
Murderh.exe
Initmh.exe
Map1.mh
Map2.mh
Map3.mh
Map4.mh
Instruct.mh
The initmh will generate the following files in a special
subdirectory called murder in your bbs directory:
Players.mh
Objects.mh
Counters.mh
The first time you run the program it generates a file called squel.mh..
That is all there is to it.....Enjoy it....
As I said, If you want to modify the room names, you need the
source code (compiled with Turbo C 2.0)...
To get the source send $10.00 and a blank disk to
Ed Burhop
8088 E Stewart Rd
Terre Haute,In
47805
Or let me know and I will let you download it from my board so
you don't have to send the disk.
Have fun.

version 1.3 info...
The initmh file now writes all files to a seperate directory in
your bbs directory called murder...as always just run init to
reset the game. I think I have conquered the infamous "Divide
Error" and the Hidden room problem. Hopefully this will be the
last revision of the game.
version 1.4 notes....
ok, this is it....the divide error is really gone now, I had to
rewrite the entire registration routine to do it too....
also, the entire instructions are now fixed...
