• Gryphon's gy-blam .ini files

    Has anyone got gy-blam working with Windows10? I can't get the right
    arguments for the blam.ini path, I've tried about a dozen versions with no luck. Works fine under Linux the way it always did with A35, but haven't got
    it working under Windows10. Haven't got anything I think of as doors to work under Windows10 either. MPLs work but batch files and external commands don't work at all with DD or D3 in any way I've found. DD works pretty well under Linux, not at all under Windows10 (for me).
    I have noticed that Windows10 always opens shells under \windows\system32
    which I assume is because that's where cmd.exe is. Also that
    \windows\system32 is the default path for everything that you try to use as a door.

    ...What the windows is going on?

    Found the answer - I didn't copy the *.bbi files to the data directory!
    So the answer is they weren't there. I figured it out by adding my BBS and it took it. Looked at the data\bbslist.bbi and it had just the one entry but was there and working, so started up Filezilla and copied the *.bbi files from my main BBS and of course it works fine now ;)

    ...If you can't find the answer, experiment ;)
