  • How to download from a BBS?

    From BBS ( /u/Dynaguy64 https://www.reddit.com/user/Dynaguy64 ) to All on Sun Aug 2 19:03:40 2026

    I'm having trouble finding a guide for downloading files from a BBS. Specifically, I'm trying to download games from Particles. I'm using xmodem and ejecting the virtual disk from the 8 drive when it is time to download. I'm inserting a new blank disc and the virtual drive makes some strange noises. It says the download was successful but when I go back to BASIC to load the newly created disk, it fails to find any usable information. I can't list the directory or launch the first program on the disk. What am I doing wrong? submitted by /u/Dynaguy64 [link] [comments]
