• Lunatix on xp

    From Jazzman@RICKSBBS to All on Thu Feb 22 09:22:00 2007
    Any Sysops have any luck getting Lunatix to run decently on xp? I thought
    i'd give the regular comm routines a go but that didn't prove any better.
    I'm speaking about the performance. The screen draws are painfully slow
    and i've run out of ideas.

    ... Hacker Tip #276: ALT-H gives you SysOp access.

    Same here... I have it here on Darkness, but it runs HORRIBLY slow...
    I never figured out how, and gave up months ago to move on to
    something better.

    I moved everything over from a w98 box to an xp box just to try things
    out. So far this game and Timeport (same author) is the only ones i've
    had a problem with. It's one of my favs so it really bites..ARGH!

    ... Is the Sysop looking? No? Great, now I ca...NO CARRIER

    Have you tried playing with the YieldInterval value in your exec/sbbsexec.ini file?

    That was GREAT advice Digital Man. I messed with numbers and settled
    on 10.0 and now it works like a champ!

    Thank you.

    p.s..i just noticed there is a character in the game named 'Rob the
    Psycho Janitor'. LMAO!

    ... SabreEDIT not found. Run Sysop out of town? (Y/n)

    Seems to run fine here since the updates to sbbsexec... I think I have
    the sbbsexec.ini's YieldInterval=15.0 .. seems to work okay for me,
    you may want to try it with a lower, or higher number...

    I'm running the board on an Athlon 64 3800, under 2003 server...
