This is product is provided "as is" without warranty of any kind. The
entire risk as to the results and performance of the program is assumed by
you. Futher more, I the author do not warrant, guarantee, or make any

Copyright
The Multi-Board Krazy Casino live game is distributed as SHAREWARE.
Under this concept you may use the SHAREWARE (unregistered) version for a
reasonable period of time, which I consider to be three weeks, after which you
must either register your copy or discontinue usage.
Registration
With registeration you will recieve the latest registered copy of Krazy Casino
with the ability to download any futher updates from Secret Service BBS
at no extra cost. You will also recieve any support the author can give
in reference to bugs or other problems that may arise in using the game.
I feel that sysop's have enough expense without charging a high cost for a game
for their users. I have set the cost of registration at $20.00 which I feel
if people will follow the shareware concept will be enough to cover shipping
and handling and encourage me to write more doors.
See register.txt for ordering instructions.
VISA AND MASTERCARD WELCOME!
Distribution
You are free, in fact encouraged, to distribute the SHAREWARE (unregistered)
version of the Multi-Board Krazy Casino Live Game provided that all files
contained in the original Krazy Casino archive are distributed in their
original unmodified state.

Introduction
&
How To Play
Krazy Casino is actually three card games in one! Users may play up to
the house set maximum number of hands per day on 3 different types of
cards. The casino offers games of in-between, High/Low, and Two card
poker. Bets may be place up to $1000 per hand and the number of hands
at each table is set by the sysop on game setup.
The game is easy to play and competes players against each other on a
monthly basis.
Options and Information
This door game will also create color and mono top 10 bulletins and write them
in directories of your choice written in the .CFG file. The top player of the
previous month is displayed within the bulletins as well as the all time
high scorer.
Installation and Setup
Installation procedures are relatively simple. Create a new directory
and unzip the contents of Casino.zip into it.
Run the Setup.exe program and answer the questions as they appear. If
you have problems answering a question, please read the detailed description
below.
Create a batch file to call the game from your board as described below in
the Batch Files section of the documentation.
The following is a list of what is each file:
Casino.CFG contains:
The Secret Service BBS <-- Name of BBS
Mike <-- Sysop's first name
Wilson <-- Sysop's last name
C:\Path\BBSInfo.??? <-- Path and filename for Board Info. File (See Below)
C:\Path\Color.Scr <-- Path & Filename to create COLOR bulletin
C:\Path\ASCII.bbs <-- Path & Filename to create MONO bulletin
NO <-- NO or locked COM PORT Baud Rate
25 <-- Number of turns per card challenge
(20 to 30 recommended)
The line that asks for Board Info. file refers to the path and name of
the file that your particular BBS program creates when it drops out
to run the game. The file would be one of the following:
Wildcat prior to V3.0 -----> Callinfo.bbs Spitfire --> SFDoors.dat
GAP or WILDCAT 3.0+ -------> Door.sys PCBoard --> PCBoard.sys
QuickBBS ----> DorinfoX.def (The X is 1 or 2 depending on node)
Krazy Casino (C)opyright 1990 Page - 3
NOTE FOR MULTI NODES!
You may now have several .cfg files to allow use on multinode systems.
Use the above .cfg format but name each .cfg file differently. You
may call them what you want as long as you correctly call them from
the batch file command line.
Example: Node1: game game.cfg
Node2: game game1.cfg
** If you run Multi-nodes and need to alter the address or IRQ for
Com 3 or 4 , please read Port.doc to utilize this feature.
Casino.DAT contains:
--------------------
This file contains the following user data:
"The Champion","05-07-1990","100"
Data has to be kept in this format, but you can delete all lines except for
line number 1 which is the Last Months Champ line. You can alter line 1 but
not remove it. You need to alter line 1's Date form 05-07-1990 to the month
that your setting up this door. For example if it is December just simply
change the Date to 12-01-1990. It doesn't matter if it's the 1st or the 10th,
only the Month (12) will make any difference.
Casino.TXT contains:
--------------------
This is the instruction file for Krazy Casino. When a user selects the
See Instructions option during the game, this file is read for
instructions. This file MUST BE PRESENT and Not altered in any way for
Krazy Casino to run properly
Chamption.txt:
All time champion information in the format of:
"Alltime Champion","06-12-90"," 1000"
Port.doc
--------
Contains instructions for Multi-board users that need to alter Com 3 or
Com 4's address or IRQ value.
BOARD.TXT
---------
Don't worry about this file. It is created when you run setup.exe
This file tells the game which BBS Software you are running and
tells it to read the correct board file. THERE SHOULD NOT BE A
BOARD.TXT FILE IN THE GAME DIRECTORY IF YOUR RUNNING WILDCAT
PRIOR TO VERSION 3.0+ !
The game looks for this file and defaults to Wildcat if it isn't
found.
For other boards it will contain one line with one of the following:
QuickBBS --------> QBBS GAP or WILDCAT 3.0+ ---> GAP
PCBoard ---------> PCB Spitfire --------------> SPITFIRE
Krazy Casino (C)opyright 1990 Page - 4

Batch Files
=================
Be sure that you have edited or created the CASINO.CFG file with the correct
information as described earlier in these docs. The individual setups do not
repeat this necessary process.
Wildcat! 1.13 & 2.0+ Setup:
---------------------------
First, create your DOOR##.BAT (2.0+) or LIVE##.BAT (1.13) like this eample:
ECHO OFF
CD \WILDCAT\DOORS\CASINO
CASINO CASINO.CFG
CD \WILDCAT
CAT.BAT
place this batch file in your Node# directory if running Multi-Nodes or in
your Wildcat (default) directory if single node.
Second, Create a sub-directory for the door program such as in the following
example:
C:\WILDCAT\DOORS\CASINO
Third, put the CASINO game files in the \WILDCAT\DOORS\CASINO directory.
Forth, add this game to your live program menu for user selection and your
ready to run the door.
Krazy Casino (C)opyright 1990 Page - 5
If this is a little unclear then please read your systems documentation for
more detailed instructions.
If you use a door monitoring program then read their documentation for
their specific setup.
Gap Setup:
----------
First, add the number and name of the door to your menu. This will allow the
user to select the door by number.
Second, edit or create the file called DOORS.DAT which is normally in the GEN
directory. Following is an example line to add:
KC 10
where 'KC' stands for the name of the batch file (shown below) to invoke the
the door and '10' is the required security level.
Third, create a sub-directory for CASINO to be placed in. And example
would be:
C:\GAP\CASINO
place all the files in the CASINO.ZIP archive inside this directory.
Forth, create a batch file called CASINO which should be placed in the
default directory. Following is example contents of this file:
ECHO OFF
CD\GAP\CASINO
CASINO CASINO.CFG
CD\GAP
GAP
the last line in the CASINO file should invoke the batch file which loads
the GAP BBS system.
If this is a little unclear then please read your systems documentation for
more detailed instructions.
If you use a door monitoring program then read their documentation for
their specific setup.
Spitfire Setup:
---------------
First edit your SFDOOR.MNU and add the following line. If you are not running
and doors at this time you will need to create this file.
CASINO, 10
Where CASINO is the name of the door to appear on your menu and the 10
is the lowest security level that will be allowed to enter the door. Don't
forget the comma (,) after the name.
Second create a sub-directory to place the door game in. In this example we
will use 'C:\SF\DOOR_A' for the game directory.
Krazy Casino (C)opyright 1990 Page - 6
Third move all the files in the CASINO.ZIP archive into this directory.
Forth edit your SF.BAT file adding the following lines.
:DOOR_A
CD\SF\DOORS_A
CASINO CASINO.CFG
CD\SF
GOTO LOOP
Fifth, rerun Sf.BAT and your ready to begin play.
If this is a little unclear then please read your systems documentation for
more detailed instructions.
If you use a door monitoring program then read their documentation for
their specific setup.
PCBoard 14.0+ Setup:
--------------------
First, edit your DOORS and DOORSG file so that it shows CASINO with the door
number relating to it's position in DOORS.DAT.
Second, edit the DOORS.DAT file so that it includes CASINO.
Third, create a sub-directory for CASINO to be placed in. And example
would be:
C:\PCB\CASINO
place all the files in the CASINO.ZIP archive inside this directory.
Forth, create a batch file called CASINO which should be placed in the
default directory. Following is example contents of this file:
ECHO OFF
CD\PCB\CASINO
CASINO CASINO.CFG
CD\PCB
BOARD
the last line in the CASINO file should invoke the batch file which loads
the PCboard BBS system.
If this is a little unclear then please read your systems documentation for
more detailed instructions.
If you use a door monitoring program then read their documentation for
their specific setup.
QuickBBS Setup:
---------------
First, add the game to your games menu and select the correct type for doors.
Second, create a sub-directory for the game and move all the files from the
zip file to this directory.
Third, the game reads the file DORINFOx.DEF. Where 'x' is the node number.
Since QuickBBS only supports one node at this time then this file should be
'DORINFO1.DEF'. This file's drive\path\filename should be on the third line
of the configuration file.
Krazy Casino (C)opyright 1990 Page - 7
Note: It was told to me that the upcoming 3.0 version of QuickBBS will
support Multi-Nodes and that the 'DORINFOx.DEF' will be changed
to 'DORINFxx.DEF' to support Multi-Nodes. This game is written
where you can specify this new name as well as any others.
Forth, create a batch file called CASINO which should be placed in the
default directory. Following is example contents of this file:
ECHO OFF
CD\QUICKBBS\CASINO
CASINO CASINO.CFG
CD\QUICKBBS
QBBS.BAT
the last line in the CASINO file should invoke the batch file which loads
the QuickBBS system.
If this is a little unclear then please read your systems documentation for
more detailed instructions.
If you use a door monitoring program then read their documentation for
their specific setup.
