Setup for WWIV 5 (Door32 release)

Step 1: Set up the chain editor so that it calls  DMUD32D.EXE as follows:

A) Description  : DoorMUD
B) Filename     : c:\wwiv\doors\doormud\dmud32d.exe -n %1 -d %E
C) SL           : 10
D) AR           : None.
E) ANSI         : Optional
F) DOS Interrupt: NOT used
G) Win32 Fossil : No
J) Local only   : No
K) Multi user   : Yes
L) Registered by: AVAILABLE
M) Usage        : 0
N) Age limit    : 0 - 255

(Kind thanks to Andrew Haworth for providing the above configuration.)

Step 2: To finish the installation, you must run the door in local mode by executing "dmud32d.exe -l". The game will automatically finish its installation the first time you run it in local mode.

*** Important Note for Mystic sysops using Windows 95, 98, and ME ***
The Door32 version of DoorMUD *cannot* be run from a batch file on these systems. Please be sure to run dmud32d.exe directly. The door will automatically change to its own directory on start-up, and change back to the proper BBS directory upon exiting, so there is no need for a batch file anyway.

*** Getting DLL errors or strange lockups? ***
DoorMUD v0.99 has fixed several known 32bit setup problems that appeared in previous versions of the door.  If you're encountering difficulties, please send the author an e-mail describing the problem.

This document should have opened in a new window. If you close it, the rest of the DoorMUD sysop docs should still be open in another window.
