      Hello Janis,              On 03 Oct 15 22:17, Janis Kracht wrote to Nick Boel:               JK> Ever see this message?               JK> When I tried to run the door tonight I saw:               JK> ====cut here===        JK> I tried to upgrade for you, but failed:        JK> Unknown/unsupported version               JK> Please see UPGRADE.DOC for further instructions.        JK> ===cut here===              To be honest, the only time I've seen that message is when running "EDITOR".       Not the actual game.              I think they require you to install usurp020e.zip first, then upgrade to       usurp024.zip. Otherwise if you're running any of the .21x-23x variants, you       can just overwrite .24 over them (minus a couple DOS versions).               JK> Weird..               JK> Sounds like it's not seeing door32.sys, but it's in the NODE/#        JK> directory..              Are you running the door with the /P switch? And if so, I'm not sure if       "/P/path/to/drop/file" would actually work (ie: slashes being backwards might       interfere with old DOS ways?), as I didn't bother attempting it since       Synchronet has a "%n" macro for the node directory.. but then I would suppose       that would do the same thing and put it in linux heirarchy. Make sure there's       no space between /P and the directory.. has to be together without a space.               JK> Do you put it there, or in the main USURPER directory?              I put it in the node directory, but I just followed his WHATSNEW.TXT for an       older linux native version.              For the record, the WHATSNEW.TXT does in fact reside in the usurp024.zip file,       as the third line of it reads:              "Version 0.24 released September 1, 2015"              Regards,       Nick              --- GoldED+/LNX 1.1.5-b20150715        * Origin: thePharcyde_ telnet://bbs.pharcyde.org (Wisconsin) (1:154/701)    |
