LOL - I can always find things quick and easy @ 2oFB... I always just save FILENAME and then I can find it quick in the future. ;P Thats the key.

I was downloading some abandonware (DOS based) from 2oFB a couple o nights ago and it might be 'just me' but I downloaded a batch download with Y-modem batch using mTCP Telnet. The batch worked fine when the files were in the same file base/group, but as soon as the files came from another group, a data error occurred. What was more annoying is that it cleared the entire list of marked downloads, not just the ones that had already been downloaded, so I had to remember what I marked all over again. Is this a bug in Mystic or is this something nuanced to 2oFB? Or do you think it's just mTtelnet?

NB the reason I used Y-Modem (if you are curious), is because mTCP doesn't support Zmodem and I'm (nauturally) using real hardware, so downloading via HTTP isn't an option.

Anyways I thought I'd let you know so you might be interested in testing for yourself.

Cheers!
Al

but there's also a master list of
all the files you can download. Yo

Oh shiz, I didn't notice that. That's MUCH nicer :). I'll go find it today, probably. Thanks!

Gosh - no, it was PROBABLY some file that doesn't exist in the file system for some reason or another - I need to run a mutil file pack. :/

Sorry about that... sometimes when pulling from File Conferences/Areas that are on my NAS some file won't be present or exactly what Mystic is expecting... the issues of having so much data going into BBS software.

No worries. Just thought I'd let you know in case it really was an issue. I tell you what, the stuff you have there is an absolute treasure trove, and it was lovely to be able to download real DOS software on real DOS hardware!

I hope you don't stop uploading retro stuff to it, I downloaded loads of apps and games the other day and am slowly working my way through them!

yay 2o4beers!

Yessir - I have a plan to add both WWW and FTP downloads at some point... its become almost a necessity at this point.

I have jACK pHLASH's File Listerz for www - I was supposed to work on it this weekend. :/

Never; the 2oFB users supported me huge last summer - and our 72TB NAS is only at 49%!!
