I am getting the linux version of Darklands to call but am having issues with the setup in either the program or the SCFG configuration.
Error log when game called and logged into node 1:
Randomizing
Setup up stuff....
loading config...
Initializing variables, node paths
Error reading DOOR.SYS (not found)
/sbbs/node1/\door.sys
Darklands setup for node 1:
Com Device /dev/ttyS1
Doortype Door.sys
door file path /sbbs/node1/
SCFG details:
BBS Drop File Type GAP DOOR.SYS
Place drop file In Node Directory
So the game is being called but it cannot find the drop file. I have tried GAP with lower case as well with no success.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
To: Stan FradyI have not tried TW yet but looking at the differences between Dosemu and Dosemu 2 and seems if you want to use DPMI, Dosemu 2 might have more success.

The /\ before door.sys seems like it might be messing things up. Since you're on a Linux setup, I'd look at removing the \ before door.sys.

by changing the call to include %#, I am past the file not found issue. Now it is Invalid Door type. Is there a way to force the drop file to be Door.sys and not door.sys or DOOR.sys?
