Going to pin this post (if it lets me) so that folks can more easily find the links. You can access the BBS by using your telnet client and visiting telnet://bbs.dzqump.wcbzw.com or telnet://shadowscope.noip.us

If you want an EASY way to get to it from your web browser you can access it from this blog or by going to http://shadowscope.noip.us/ or 网络加速器加速软件

Plenty of games (200+) both locally hosted and networked. Local and networked Message areas, news groups, awesome old-school Ansi featuring Luciano Ayres artwork and MORE. With a bent toward the supernatural and horror.

Due to the severe weather that’s supposed to move through this evening and into overnight I will be taking down the BBS and any other internal servers for the evening. Depending on when the storm moves through it may be tomorrow evening before I come back online (Have to leave for work around 6ish.)

The website here will stay up as the server is located across the country but the BBS, home automation server and media servers will be inaccessible.

The BBS and Mailer will be down for just a little bit while I make a backup and upgrade to the latest alpha version of Mystic A45. Shouldn’t take long as it’s just a straight xcopy to another PC where I sync everything to a dropbox folder.

Maskreet over at Throwbackbbs.com has this pretty good write-up that’s been up at least a couple of years. I needed it earlier this week and his site was temporarily down so I’ve decided to mirror it here. Everything below is courtesy of him:

(updated 1/19/2018; newest DOSBox SVN)

First of all, if you don’t already have it, install Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 SP1. DOSBox requires this to run.

Standalone installer here

As of this writing, the latest stable release of DOSBox (v0.74) has a broken socket inheritance, so you’re going to be grabbing an SVN release. I used EmuCR from

http://www.dosbox.com/wiki/SVN_Builds#Plain.2Fvanilla.2Fclean_SVN_builds

but you can use whichever you like, as long as socket inheritance is fixed in that version.

(**NOTE** Most of the links to download that particular flavor and version are fake adware pushers, so here’s the real thing if you don’t want to take your chances: link)

Next you’ll be grabbing a Fossil driver. x00 or BNU will work, since they seem to be the easiest to load and use. I personally use BNU, but again, whichever you prefer. x00 v1.53 and BNU v1.70 are the last, stable releases. BNU can be found at http://pcmicro.com/bnu/, while x00 can be found with a Google search (local BNU file here, local X00 file here)

Now you’re going to need DoorWay to Unlimited Doors (hereafter called DoorWay). The latest version is on the pcmicro.com website, but doesn’t seem to have it listed on the main page. Either do a Google search for it, or head to http://pcmicro.com/doorway/download.html and download it from there. It’s shareware, so it’s limited to 10 minutes per use. I’d *highly* suggest registering (local DoorWay file here).

Now grab your games. I used 哪款网络加速器好用 but any site that has them works. Keep in mind that you’re going to be limited to text and ANSI colors, and the games can’t be running in full-screen. A list of games I found that worked are:

Adventure!
The Adventures of Alice Who Went Through the Looking-Glass and Came Back Though Not Much Changed
A Mind Forever Voyaging
Amulet of Yendor
Ballyhoo
James Bond 007 – Goldfinger
James Bond 007 – A View to a Kill
Brimstone
Cyborg
Deadline
Enchanter
Forbidden Castle
Hack
The Hermit’s Secret
Infidel
McMurphy’s Mansion
Moonmist
Nethack
Leather Goddesses of Phobos
Suspended
Stephen King’s The Mist
Trinity
Voodoo Island
The Wizard’s Castle
Wishbringer
Zork 1
Zork 2
Zork 3

This isn’t a complete list at all, just the ones I grabbed and ran.

Create a directory for whichever games you downloaded; I used C:\GAMES. Each game to its own directory inside the GAMES directory. Don’t worry about directory naming conventions (8 characters or less), since DOSBox will be mounting each game to its own root directory when fired up. Now create a directory named !U_GAMES in your GAMES directory.

Before getting too involved with the rest of this how-to, run each game to make sure it works. It HAS to be in a window, and can’t have anything other than text and ANSI graphics.

Create a directory somewhere on your hard drive for both DoorWay and DOSBox. I used C:\DOORWAY and C:\DOSBOX for mine. Also, create a directory in your DOORWAY directory named CFG. Uncompress them into their respective directories. Uncompress BNU into a temp directory, and just move BNU.COM over to your DoorWay directory.

Now, to the DOSBox config. I’m using Windows XP for my BBS, so DOSBox will create the default config file in:

C:\Documents and Settings\<account name>\Local Settings\Application Data\DOSBox\dosbox-SVN.conf

but you can see where it creates it on any version of Windows you run just by running DOSBox for the first time and looking at the DOSBox status window.

Once it’s created, head to that directory and open it up. Go through the entire config and turn off anything that you won’t be using. That includes all sound emulation, joystick, mouse, etc.

When you get near the bottom, you’ll see a section named [serial]. Make sure serial 2, 3 and 4 are set to disabled. for serial 1, set it like this:

serial1=nullmodem inhsocket:1 telnet:1

and close the config, saving your changes.

Easy so far, right?

Here we’re going to create the batch file. Create a new one in your DoorWay directory. I named mine DOOR.BAT, but you can name it whatever you like. Mine is a bit clunky, but it works. If you can polish yours to be more streamlined, go for it. If your setup so far is exactly like mine, you’ll need to put this in it:

@echo off

C:
IF EXIST C:\games\!u_games\%4\%1\NUL GOTO EXISTS
IF NOT EXIST c:\games\!u_games\%4\NUL GOTO NOUSERDIR
IF NOT EXIST c:\games\!u_games\%4\%1\NUL GOTO NOGAMEDIR

:NOUSERDIR
c:
CD\games\!u_games
MD %4
GOTO NOGAMEDIR

echo /O:T>>CFG\%1.cfg
echo /S:f:\>>CFG\%1.cfg
echo /V:D>>CFG\%1.cfg
echo /K:180>>CFG\%1.cfg
echo /RB>>CFG\%1.cfg

if %1==ADVENT goto ADVENT

:ADVENT
echo /P:d:\advent.exe>>CFG\%1.cfg
echo /B:M>>CFG\%1.cfg
GOTO COMMAND

:COMMAND
c:
cd\dosbox
dosbox.exe -c “mount d c:\games\!u_games\%4\%1” -c “mount e c:\doorway” -c “mount f c:\mystic\temp%3” -c “e:” -c “bnu /f” -c “DOORWAY.EXE SYSF CFG\%1.cfg” -c “exit” -securemode -socket %2

REM %1 = config file / directory name
REM %2 = socket
REM %3 = node number
REM %4 = user’s number

The batch first checks if each user’s custom directory exists based on their BBS user number. If it doesn’t, it creates it. It moves on to the next step, which is to see if the game they’re calling from the BBS exists in their user number directory. It creates that as well if it doesn’t exist, then xcopies the source game to their personal directory. Then it creates a custom CFG file in the CFG directory for DoorWay to use, based on the game name passed from the BBS menu. After that, it looks to see which game is being called, adds the last two CFG lines (which I’ll discuss a bit later), and finally starts DOSBox. DOSBox fires up, creates the mounted directories inside it, starts the Fossil driver, starts DoorWay, and runs the game. After quitting the game, either through user interaction, BBS disconnect or a 3 minute timeout, it passes control back to the BBS.

The DOSBox command line is:

-c	Tells DOSBox that you want to pass a command; preface any command you want with a -c and enclose in quotes
-c “mount d c:\games\!u_games\%4\%1”	Tells DOSBox to mount the user’s game directory as the D: drive in DOSBox
-c “mount e c:\doorway”	Tells DOSBox to mount the DoorWay directory as the E: drive in DOSBOx
-c “mount f c:\mystic\temp%3”	Tells DOSBox to mount Mystic’s temp<node> directory as the F: drive; needed by DoorWay for DOOR.SYS

-c “bnu /f”	Loads BNU Fossil driver inside DOSBox with the default configuration
-c “DOORWAY.EXE SYSF CFG\%1.cfg”	Starts DoorWay with the custom config file in the CFG directory
-c “exit”	Passes an EXIT command to DOSBox (used as one of the ways to close DOSBox; /RB commandline parameter for DoorWay is another in the DoorWay config file)
-securemode	Tells DOSBox to not allow any additional setting or messing with the intial drive mountings in DOSBox
-socket %2	Tells DOSBox you want to pass the socket to it from the BBS; %2 is the batch files’ interpretation of the socket passed from the BBS command

The four lines in your Adventure! example are:

网络加速器加速软件	The target label called by “if %1==ADVENT GOTO ADVENT” earlier in the batch file. HAS TO MATCH THE SOURCE GAME DIRECTORY!
/P:d:\<game executable>	/P: is the command that tells DoorWay what needs to be run when invoked. d:\<game executable> is the name of the game that it runs. IT MUST BE A .COM OR .EXE FILE! Batch files won’t work with this setup.
/B:M	/B: deals with the bottom line of the game. M will move the characters to the line above (line 24). Some games can be configged to whichever amount of lines you like, which means you’d be able to remove this from that particular game. Others don’t and require it. It’s up to you to figure out which is needed.

Now that that’s all setup, we’ll be creating the Mystic menu commands to run the games.

I have mine setup where going to the DOORS menu from the MAIN menu gives a listing of games in categories. I have one for InterBBS games, one for card games, one for single-player games, one for these DOS games, etc. It doesn’t really matter where they’re accessible, just that they’re accessible. No fun playing them by yourself, right? =)

Create a new menu for your game. Configure it however you like when presented to the user. For the commands, basic setup looks like this:

Command	Access	Data
(GD) Display a file	s50	c:\games\advent\help_advent.txt (OPTIONAL – create and display if the game has something that the user might need to know)
(NA) Set node action	s50	Playing Adventure! (OPTIONAL – sets the Who’s Online listing with what they’re doing)
(DG) Exec door	s50	c:\doorway\door.bat ADVENT %0 %3 %# (The text after door.bat MUST have those four commands in that exact order!)

The help text files should look similar to this:

|CL
Use the spacebar to advance past the PAUSE prompts in game
|PA

For the DG command:

It creates a DOOR.SYS file that DoorWay needs to read to set time limits and ANSI settings (time limits only in registered version, otherwise 10 minute limit each time)

ADVENT is the name of the game. IT HAS TO MATCH THE NAME OF THE BASE GAME DIRECTORY YOU CREATE AND GOTO LABEL IN THE DOOR.BAT FILE! Make sure all three are the EXACT same, or it won’t work.

%0 is the socket handle that’s passed to DOSBox

%3 is the node the user is currently on; used to tell DOSBox where to mount one of the drives for the DOOR.SYS file to be read by DoorWay

%# is the user number, used to create the user directory and/or pass the info to DOSBox to mount one of the drives.

Now that everything’s setup, test it out. If it works, great! Easiest way to create new menu entires is to copy/paste, and edit a couple relevant things. Be sure each menu entry command has the directory and NAME changed to whichever game it is; everything else on the DG command line can, and should be left the same.

If it doesn’t work, then make sure the game name as your game directory, labels in the DOOR.BAT file and menu command are all the same. Also, look for any typos anywhere.

Any comments or questions can be directed at sysop@throwbackbbs.com, or in an email on the BBS.

Added a bunch of lit packs today as well as several hundred old BBS mods and art packs. Still need to separate the art packs into different sections at some point. Also have added email validation. Expect that the next time you log in. If you don’t have a valid email address, update it from the personal settings menu or shoot me a message and I will do it.

Here are some example screenshots of menus on the board.

Thanks mostly to Luciano Ayres at http://www.ansigarden.com/ for the awesome menus. There’s no way I could have such a good looking BBS without them. I am OK at Ansi/Ascii and can edit existing stuff but my work pales in comparison to most of the great artists out there.

Apparently I missed it. Shows how much I care 🙂

At some point in October or November of 1999 I converted over from a BBS to a web site. Ran it using a dynamic dns url for about a year and purchased dzqump.wcbzw.com in December of 1999 (I think)

My first couple of months were hand coded entries and at the time I mainly posted about BBS news and Windows customization. Unfortunately since I was handcoding I would just delete the old ones and post over the top so the oldest stuff I have online is from 好用网络加速器. I managed to recover those from the Wayback machine a few years ago and insert into my blog.

I’ve met some awesome people over the last 30 years of being online through BBSing and blogging so here’s to another couple of decades!

Wow. 2024. Looks like I haven’t posted since 2017. Time flies right?

Anyway, you can access still access the BBS from the menu links above by choosing the ftelnet option. I have also got a small applet hosted at shadowscope.noip.us, as Mystic now has a builtin web server.

I am in the process of adding SSH, SMTP and POP3 to the BBS. The POP3 support is only currently for local BBS mail for the time being. I have not yet tested out SSH to see how ansi support is. Only SSH client I have ever used is puTTY and I have no idea how that will look.

I can’t find very much information about the html support that was added to Mystic so not yet sure what I will be able to do. One of the very few things I miss from Synchronet (and EleBBS before that) is being able to get to my netmail and echomail from the web. I work so much and spend so much time on my phone that it would be very convenient to access it from there. I have tried a couple of android fidonet apps a couple of years back and for what I want they really didn’t work very well. Not well written, fonts too small, crash continuously, etc.

That’s it for now. I’ll try to get on and post more HA and BBS stuff than I have been the last two years. The site is coming up on 20 years old now so wow. Christmas I will have had this domain for two decades.
