• RCS Game Door

    From RickV@21:1/206 to All on Sun Aug 31 08:30:46 2025
    Hello everybody!

    I'm have some problem getting the RCS game Door to run correctly. It does load but after that I don't have a menu displayed. I'm running under Windows 11/64bi t, Mystic 1.12 a49/64bit. I think the windows portion if the rcsmenu.mps isn't right, but not sure what.

    //***** Windows Command lines ***** //BBSLink Command line information BBSL_BFR_CMD = 'd:\bbslink\bbslink.bat' //BBSLink Command line before do or code
    BBSL_AFT_CMD = '%Pdoor32.sys' //Command line after door code
    //DoorParty Command line information DP_BFR_CMD = 'd:\doorparty\dp.bat % 3 %U'
    //DoorParty Command line before door code DP_AFT_CMD = '' //Command
    line after door code
    //Sub-directory where .INI files are located - from scripts directory MENU_SUB _DIR =
    'c:\mystic\themes\default\scripts\rcsmenus' //Sub-directory where data files will be located -
    from scripts directory DATA_SUB_DIR = 'c:\mystic\themes\default\scripts\rc smenudat'
    //Name indicated in the ini file for your top (main) menu
    //This needs to match what it in the ini file, as it determines which Top 5 to display MAIN_MENU
    = 'Main'

    I think the problem is this MAIN_MENU section. Any thoughts on this?

    I know it's a bit hard to read..

    Thanks,
    RickV

    I don't know much about Windows setups, but I did want to say that I'm still running the stock [well; modified, but not the code..] version of Game Door. [On Linux] - I'm not aware of any changes needed for new versions of Mystic so hopefully its just the setup thats an issue.

    Sorry I'm not on Windows - I hope someone that is can post their working setup for you and you get it ironed out...

    If your menu is not displaying I would think its not finding you menu .ini file.

    MENU_SUB _DIR =
    'c:\mystic\themes\default\scripts\rcsmenus' //Sub-directory where
    data files will be located -
    from scripts directory DATA_SUB_DIR = 'c:\mystic\themes\default\scripts\rc smenudat'

    I don't know if this matters but maybe putting the full path in is the issue. Try just 'rcsmenus' and 'rcsmenusat'

    GIve that a try. hopefully thats it.

    If your menu is not displaying I would think its not finding you menu
    .ini file.

    Yes not naming the file name for the menu, or the category name not matching the file.ini name would definitely cause the .ans to not display.
