1. PREFACE
Welcome to the land of Arrowbridge. This game is has evolved over seven
years due to a passion that I have for medieval culture and lands of
fantasy. Arrowbridge was first released to the public in early 1993 and has
since grown in popularity. The game has been designed so as to allow the
player to deviate from his/her normal life and enter a new world, one of
excitement and mystique.

3. INTRODUCTION
Arrowbridge is a ANSI Dungeons and Dragons style online game with over
230000 locations, 40 dungeons, castles, cities, towns, armies, hundreds of
monsters, special missions, magic items and much much more. Combat routines
feature movable icons with ANSI graphics. The game is * BIG * and has been
designed to present a SERIOUS challenge to all players - hints are available
in all of the taverns, but note that the game is a "thinking person's game"
and will take several months to complete due to the many complex puzzles
that must be solved.
3.1 Operating Environment
This version has been thoroughly tested on Remote Access V2.0x and PCBoard
but should work on any BBS that creates a DORINFOx.DEF or DOOR.SYS file!
Another important fact is that Arrowbridge will use a Fossil driver if it is
resident in memory. Arrowbridge has been designed to run under MSDOS,
4DOS/NDOS and OS/2.
A FOSSIL driver is required if you are using baud rates in excess of 9600
baud or if you have your system running at a locked baud rate. Arrowbridge
should function with all fossils adopting the fossil standard, including X00
and BNU. For OS/2, the SIO driver produced by Ray Gwinn should be used
instead of the standard OS/2 fossil drivers from maximum success.
Arrowbridge can also be played on a multi-node basis! Make sure that
SHARE.EXE is resident if you intend to run several copies of Arrowbridge at
once - failure to do this could result in file degradation
*** A note for DOS users ***
Arrowbridge uses standard dos directory calls when running in an Inter-BBS
mode and has been known to pause (awaiting a keystroke) with some dos
setups. The problem can be fixed by checking the autoexec.bat file for the
following statement:
SET DIRCMD=/P/A...etc
The '/P' entry causes the directory listing to pause when the screen fills.
This entry should be removed if Arrowbridge is to be used in an Inter-BBS
mode of operation.
Arrowbridge I Page 4
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
4. INSTALLATION
The following information details the procedure for installing Arrowbridge
for the first time. If you are upgrading, please read the -UPGRADE.DOC
file.
A De-compress the file into a directory that is to contain all of the
Arrowbridge files.
B Set up a BBS door and batch file taking into account the following:
> Arrowbridge supports only DORINFOx.DEF and DOOR.SYS drop files. Most BBS
types support one or both of these drop file standards.
> If you are running with locked baud rates then you must either use the
DOOR.SYS drop file (from which the locked baud rate will be read) or use
the /LOCKED=[rate] switch with DORINFOx.DEF when running the ABRIDGE.EXE
file.
> A FOSSIL driver must be resident if baud rates in excess of 9600 are to
be used. If your system does not require a FOSSIL, then a FOSSIL must be
loaded by the batch file and then unloaded after the user exits
Arrowbridge.
> Systems that only produce DORINFO1.DEF files must rename the file
according to the current line of the BBS as DORINFOx.DEF (where x=line
number) before running the ABRIDGE.EXE.
A general batch file example for a single node BBS is
C:
CD \BBS\ABRIDGE
ABRIDGE.EXE /LOCKED=38400 /NODE1 /Pc:\BBS\line1
CD \BBS
The Arrowbridge command line tells Arrowbridge that the baud rate is locked
at 38400 bps, the game is running as node1 and the path to the drop file is
C:\BBS\LINE1.
Examples for specific BBS types are found below. If your BBS type is not
listed then send me a netmail message at FIDO 3:711/520 and let me know how
you managed to set up the game.
* Batch file for REMOTE ACCESS & EZYCOM SYSTEMS
Create a door exit (Type 7) in your BBS menu to run the Arrowbridge batch
file that is to be created in the following step.
eg. Command Line :
*C /C C:\RA\ABRIDGE.BAT *M *N
Create a batch file to run ABRIDGE with the BBS node number and drop file
path as a parameter, ie. use the /NODEx switch (where x=node number) and
/P[path] switch where the [path] is the full path to your drop file (see
section 6.1 for more information).
Arrowbridge I Page 5
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
eg. Sample batch program for Remote Access & Ezycom (%1 = node number)
COPY DORINFO1.DEF DORINFO%1.DEF
CD \RA\ABRIDGE
ABRIDGE.EXE /LOCKED=38400 /NODE%1 /Pc:\ra\line%1
CD \RA
* Batch file for PCBOARD SYSTEMS
Enable DOOR.SYS in the doors setup. Create a batch file to run ABRIDGE
with the BBS node number and drop file path as a parameter, ie. use the
/NODEx switch (where x=node number) and /P[path] switch where the [path]
is the full path to your drop file (see section 6.1 for more
information).
Choose (S)wap out of PCB
--[ batch example for line 2 - modify as necessary ]--
@echo off
d:
cd\abridge
abridge.exe /NODE2 /Pc:\pcb\node2
c:
cd\pcb\node2
@echo off
------------------------
D Run ABTOOLS SETUP & enter the information as described in Section 5. Pay
particular attention to the paths and dropfile type entries.
E Change into the Arrowbridge directory that you have created and run
ABTOOLS CREATE
This will create all of the game files and the 'MAPS' directory necessary
for Arrowbridge to run successfully.
F You are ready to play! (Try running ABRIDGE /LOCAL!)
Arrowbridge I Page 6
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
5. SETUP OPTIONS
ABTOOLS SETUP allows you to customise the game as discussed below.
5.1 BBS Details
* BBS Name
This tells Arrowbridge what system name the game is registered to and the
registration code is checked against that name. Note that the rego check is
not case sensitive.
* Sysop Name
This tells Arrowbridge what sysop/user name the game is registered to and
the registration code is also checked against that name. Once again, the
rego check is not case sensitive.
* Registration Code
Enter your registration code here.
* Drop File Type
Arrowbridge supports two drop file types which are compatible with most BBS
systems - DOOR.SYS and DORINFOx.DEF. Please select the drop file that is
applicable to your BBS software (See Section 4 for applicability).
5.2 Game Options
* Seasons follow date?
If you wish the seasons in the game to follow the current calendar date then
answer 'Yes'. If not, the seasons will change monthly.
* Hemisphere (N/S)
If you wish the seasons to follow the date then select the hemisphere you
wish to follow. That is, in January, the northern hemisphere is in Winter
and the southern hemisphere is in Summer.
* Number of Characters per Player (default 4, maximum 9)
Each player may be able to control up to nine separate characters. The
default is set to four to enable each player to control a character of each
of the four classes.
Arrowbridge I Page 7
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Maximum Time per Character (default 60 mins, maximum 199 mins)
The time per character is determined by this setting. Giving players too
much time is not advised as users will play Arrowbridge continuously and tie
up system resources.
* Number of Turns per Character (default 600, maximum 9999)
The number of turns per character is determined by this setting. Note that
this figure applies to Knights, Wizards and Rangers. The setting for
Thieves is this figure multiplied by a factor of two. The time of day will
progress based on the number of turns played and the number of turns
available. Setting this figure too high could result in the time of day
never getting to sunset and many Wizards will not be happy with this!
* Display Rego Name?
This determines if the Sysop or User Name that the game is registered to, is
displayed when a user exits the game.
5.3 Inter-BBS Options
* Mailer Type
The front end mailer type must be defined as either:
Frontdoor/D'Bridge
Binkley
None
The "None" setting will produce a file in the OUTBOUND directory but it will
not produce a .MSG file (used with other types of front end mailers).
* League Tag
The league tag is the individual Arrowbridge league identifier. I must be
two characters in length. See the Inter-BBS sections for more information.
* BBS Address
This is the address that is matched with the NODES.ABR file to determine if
your system is operating in an Inter-BBS environment. See the Inter-BBS
sections for more information.
Arrowbridge I Page 8
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
5.4 Paths
* Arrowbridge Path
This is the full path that points to your Arrowbridge directory. It MUST be
defined for successful operation. The trailing backslash (\) is optional.
eg. C:\RA\ABRIDGE
* Inbound File Path
This is the full path that points to your inbound file directory and is only
required if you are operating in Inter-BBS mode. The trailing backslash (\)
is optional.
eg. C:\FD\FILE
* Outbound Mail Path
This is the full path that points to your outbound mail directory and is
only required if you are operating in Inter-BBS mode. The trailing
backslash (\) is optional.
eg. C:\FD\MAIL
5.5 Languages
The hints provided when the player drinks in the taverns and general text
can be configured for different languages. Simply rename the appropriate
files, in the Arrowbridge game directory, to HINTS.ABR and TEXT.ABR as
listed below:
Language Hints File Text File Author
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
English (default) HINTS.ENG TEXT.ENG
German HINTS.GER TEXT.GER Michael Grigutsch
Arrowbridge I Page 9
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
6. COMMAND LINE SWITCHES
6.1. ABRIDGE.EXE [Command]
/LOCAL Play Arrowbridge locally (Default Node 0 unless specified)
/LOCKED=[baud] Lock the baud rate at 300, 1200, 2400, 9600, 19200 or
38400. This is only required for systems running with a
DORINFOx.DEF drop file. This function should be used if
your modem uses a locked baud rate. If you wish to lock
the rate at HIGHER values then lock the rate at 38400
using the /locked=38400 switch and the fossil will
automatically adjust this to the rate at which it itself
is locked.
eg. /LOCKED=19200
If your systems features different lines locked at
different baud rates then this info must be transfered to
Arrowbridge via a batch file.
/P[path] This is where the path for the location of the drop file
is entered. For a single line system, this switch should
look something like the following example:
eg. /Pc:\bbs\line1
For a multi-line system, a batch file which recognises
each node must be written. This file will differ from
system to system, but an example is:
eg. /Pc:\bbs\line%1
where %1 is the node number passed into the batch file.
/NODEx Used for multi-node operation. "x" denotes the Line
number of the BBS. The default value for remote operation
is "1". Do NOT run multiple copies of Arrowbridge without
using this switch! This is only required for multi-line
operations, and an example is shown below:
eg. /NODE%1
where %1 is the node number passed into the batch file.
Problems?
If you encounter any problems with setting up Arrowbridge then do not
hesitate to send me a message via FIDO 3:711/520, or mail marks@acay.com.au
or ask at any distribution site for help.
Arrowbridge I Page 10
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
6.2. ABTOOLS.EXE [Command]
CREATE Create/reset Arrowbridge
EDIT Delete players, Edit Names and move players back to the
Arrowbridge castle. When players are deleted, a lower
case 'x' shall appear in the player data file to indicate
that the player no longer exists.
INBOUND Processes inbound network files (Inter-BBS operation
only). This will check the inbound directory for
"ABxxyyzz.???" files where xx=League Tag (as per ABTOOLS
SETUP), yy=Origin BBS System number, zz=Destination BBS
System number, ???=unique file id and process these files.
OUTBOUND Processes outbound network files (Inter-BBS operation
only). New outbound files are created on a daily basis
(soon to be configurable).
SETUP Change game setup (see section 5)
Arrowbridge I Page 11
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
7. SYSOP OPTIONS
ALT-C - CHAT Mode
Chat with users while online. ESC will abort the chat mode.
ALT-F10 - Summon Zombre Bryan
During gameplay, the sysop has the ability to summon Zombre Bryan by
pressing ALT-F10. This will result in Zombre appearing in the next combat
round and will most likely lead to the demise of the user online at the
time. This should be used on unwanted players only!
Note: Zombre will also appear randomly during the game!
Arrowbridge I Page 12
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
8. INTER-BBS PLAY
Arrowbridge can also be run on an Inter-BBS basis. At the moment, the
following functions are supported :
* A top 100 Inter-BBS player list featuring the top players based on their
experience.
* Send assassins to other systems to terminate players.
* Send a Destructor to another system. This Destructor is a level 15
assassin which will attack all players on the destination BBS until it is
destroyed.
* Inter-BBS messaging
Arrowbridge I Page 13
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
8.1 STARTING A LEAGUE
In order start an Arrowbridge I Inter-BBS league, you must create a
NODES.ABR file which will contain all of the network information for each
BBS.
Note: This version of Arrowbridge I will only function with
Frontdoor/D'Bridge & Binkley compatible front end mailers.
Here is an example of a NODES.ABR file:
(First line is shown on the line below)
1 HOST 2
Arrow Entertainment System
3:711/520
2 HOST 3 4
death by chocolate...
3:632/360
3
Coastal Communications
3:411/906
4
Fireburners BBS
1:3418/2
etc.
Note that there is a blank line after every system entry, a maximum of
ninety-nine systems may be entered in the nodelist. Point systems are
permitted. System#1 is considered to be the league co-ordinator and all
configuration updates will be automatically generated from his/her game
setup.
Make sure the first line features the first system number. The HOST 3 4
indicates that system 2 is the host system for systems 3 & 4. Consequently,
all files for systems 3 & 4 will be routed through system 2.
Ensure that the address of your system in the NODES.ABR file directly
matches that contained in the SETUP options.
Also, you must assign a League Tag, ie. a 2 character ID for your
Arrowbridge II league so that systems may run multiple leagues without
contention. All systems in your league must have the same Tag entered in
the ABTOOLS SETUP routine. If multiple leagues are to be run, then ensure
that each Arrowbridge game runs ABTOOLS INBOUND & OUTBOUND from within each
directory - failure to do this may result in network files being over-
written by other league games.
Note: Arrowbridge no longer requires a ROUTE.ABR file to operate.
Arrowbridge I Page 14
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
8.2 CO-ORDINATING A LEAGUE
Co-ordinating a league is assisted by the following function:
* Auto-nodelist updates - when the NODES.ABR file has been changed by the
coordinating system (system#1), an automatic nodelist update will be sent to
all systems
8.3 JOINING A LEAGUE
To join an Arrowbridge I league, you will need to do the following:
Step 1
Contact an Arrowbridge I league coordinator and get a NODES.ABR file and a
league tag.
Step 2
Run ABTOOLS SETUP and enter your [I]nter-BBS data. Make sure your node
number entered matches that in the NODES.ABR file. Remember to enter your
Inter-BBS paths in the [P]aths section. Note that the BBS name does not
have to match that in the NODES.ABR file.
Step 3
Edit your daily batch file to run ABTOOLS INBOUND and ABTOOLS OUTBOUND on a
regular basis.
You are ready to go!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
9. REGISTRATION
This game is distributed as Shareware. The game is totally playable in its
unregistered state, and feel free to use it for an unlimited period, but a
few functions have been disabled:
* Players will not be able to start their second mission for advancement to
level ten
* Riders and Knights cannot be purchased
This crippling of the game is to encourage sysops to register the game. I
am a professional engineer working in the defense industry and have spent
thousands of hours creating this game. This is by no means a money-making
exercise, but my time in the commercial sector does not come cheap. I
devote my spare time to Arrowbridge when I could be out in the real world
making some serious money - but I would rather be writing online games and
working for myself :)
Registration is inexpensive and will encourage me to add more functions to
the game. Your registration code will function with ALL versions of
Arrowbridge I - Quest for the Orb. In the event of a sequel to Arrowbridge,
you will receive a discount for registering the new game. Note that refunds
will not be granted once a registration code has been issued.
Fill in the registration form (REGISTER.DOC) and send it to the address
shown, Crash Mail it with an attached message to Arrow Entertainment System
(FIDO 3:711/520) or run REGISTER.EXE to encrypt your credit card information
and send it to sales@gargoylepro.com. After the registration form is
received, you will be sent a registration code by post or by email. This
will be dispatched within 24 hours of receipt, and as a result, you should
receive it well within 10 working days worldwide!
Alternatively, call one of the International Arrowbridge Registration Sites
listed below to register the game (for BBS or private registration only).
Their registration forms are included in this archive, but please confirm
the price with the site operators before registering as prices fluctuate
with the international exchange rates. Please use only authorised
registration sites to register Arrowbridge. If you are in any doubt then
contact Mark Sinclair at FIDO 3:711/520 or marks@acay.com.au for information
on registration sites.
Once you receive your rego code, simply add it to the game using ABTOOLS
SETUP. Please ensure that your BBS name and Sysop name are match that
included on your registration application (they are not case sensitive).
After the code has been entered, your BBS name should be displayed in the
Arrowbridge title screen. Note that your registered copy may only be
installed on one PC at any point in time.
*** PLEASE NOTE *** Using illegally modified or hacked versions of
Arrowbridge is not only a crime, but it is a serious risk to your computer
through virus infection. Please report all incidents of illegal file
tampering and distribution so that legal action may be taken.
Arrowbridge I Page 16
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
9.1 COMMERCIAL REGISTRATION
Commercial registrations are available to those who wish to operate
Arrowbridge in a commercial environment. BBS's that charge for membership
are NOT classified as commercial systems, provided that their main activity
is that of providing a bulletin board service.
Commercial registrations must be obtained directly through Legend
Electronics of Australia. Please consult the REGISTER.DOC file for more
information.

10. HELP & SUGGESTIONS
An Arrowbridge echo area is available on the Australian and US Fidonet
backbones which will report all future releases of Arrowbridge, give plenty
of hints and tips and allow you to let me know of bugs that you encounter.
Any suggestions that you may have for the game would also be appreciated as
the game functions are only limited by our imagination. Please keep in mind
that I have to read through hundreds of messages per week and, as a result,
I may not have enough time to reply to them all. I will do my best though!
10.1 MORE POPULARITY?
In order to make Arrowbridge popular on your system, try the following:
* Post the PROMO.ANS file in your daily bulletin - this file will let the
users know (in bold ANSI) that you are running Arrowbridge!
* Run a competition where the first person to reach a certain level in the
game will be declared the winner and receive a prize
* Avoid playing the game yourself - users are often disheartened by a sysop
who is winning the game and can see every move they make
