    Anyone using this door below? I can get it to load with NFU.EXE and NETFOSS, but the BACK.ANS file that displays everything does not load. It loads fine locally (ie: BBSLIST.EXE -L), but when it's called from the BBS via telnet connection, it will not display and all I have is a black background and the BBS listings on the left side.

    I have the same issue with a door written by him call Sudoko. It will not display the ANSI file of the menu, only the hard coded information is displayed. Any ideas?

    It's weird, it runs, it works, but without displaying that ansi file you have no idea what to press. ;)

    Did you ever get this figured out? Apam hangs out on fsxnet if you need to reach them.

    ... I used to be indecisive; now I'm not sure.


    Yeah, he telnetted over and I showed him. Unlike the other doors, I guess he doens't set a path in the source. So I had to call the door from the
    directory it's in via a batch file because of the way NFU in NetFOSSIL loads
    32 bt doors on 16 bit systems. But yeah, once he said I needed to load it
    that way, all his doors work great. And they are some nice doors. Too bad he wans't around back in the hay day making them.
