Hi Bob -
I still have your original MLYAHT, and still enjoy playing it. It has been on every computer I’ve owned since the late eighties.
I just put it on my new Dell XPS Studio 1800 running WIN 7. I had to install DOSBOX in order to use it, but that was no problem. Thanks for many, many hours of enjoyment!
Best regards,
Ron

You will have to map a network drive for all nodes. If you browse directly to directory both that person will come in with higher lock privledges and you will receive the error.

I have the same problem,
I can run snipes at dosbox without problems, but it’s single player.

nlsnipes is not working, says
“Couldn’t join the game, try loading share at the server”
if run it from a local server, or
“Error ReOpening initial file”
if i run it from a shared network directory. Any ideas?

Thanks

Jeremy,

Thanks for the recommendation. I don’t have much experience with MUDs, but I’ll check it out.

James, I don’t know those technical details, but if someone figures it out, they are welcome to post it here in the comments for the benefit of others who might have the same questions.

Jake,

Thanks for your comment. For some reason it went in my spam queue, that’s why I did not see it until now. I’m glad you had fun with Codebreaker. I’m afraid there’s not much chance of it ever being updated. It’s been years since I tried to compile the source code, and I’m not even sure I could find it now.
