More BBS Updates

Rather than run a virtual machine I’ve kept my Mystic setup on my Win 10 64bit desktop just because it uses less resources that way. I was finding that my system was bogging down. Until I can get some of the other stuff offloaded to a Raspberry Pi I have Plex, Jackett, Sonarr and several other things running here at the same time.

That means that until I set up qemu the old 16-bit dos games won’t work except for the ones I have set up using BBSLink. I’ll try and get some of the newer 32 bit doors loaded as soon as possible. Currently the only one I am personally hosting is Usurper. There are at least ten accessible from the BBSLink menu though.

I have a few of my Ansi menus moved and will keep working on that slowly but surely. Going to do more back-end stuff first though. I need to set myself up as a point first so that I can access my netmail and all the echomail from my phone. I’ve never set up a point system before so that may take a while.

If you have any suggestions as far as games or mods please feel free to let me know.

Back Online

Shadowscope BBS is back online and the move is complete (sort of lol.) The message networks have all been moved as have a large portion of the games. I will put my Ansi and menus back up over the next few weeks and doing some tweaking but the hard stuff is all finished. Now for the tedious…

No web interface currently like there was when I was using Synchronet but I’ll be able to pull some of the info off and make a partial interface eventually. Too many pans in the fire currently though.
