I just ran v3.1.1 on my Iici with System 7.5.5 for the month of March without any crashes or freeze-ups whatsoever. I was pleasantly surprised with how stable it was!

Great news - we have a working serial number for Hermes II v3.1.1! We got the master Mac cracker, Sidd Hartha, together with the original programmer of Hermes and master or encryption, Will Price. With the blessing of the current owner of Hermes II, the original source code was provided to...

Don't feel bad - he ghosted me about a year ago, probably because I was asking too many questions. :oops: However, I've been in contact with the original creator of Hermes, Will Price, and he seems interested in getting back into the swing of things - stay tuned... That's fantastic that...

Whoops - sorry I missed the part where you already contacted him. And one of those attempts this AM was me accidentally typing in #1 by force of habit! :oops: I've played around with Public Address a little bit, but didn't find very many door games for it. I've got v0.9.10.5 of it in the...

Yeah, unless it's one of us, nobody is gonna do it. There's even less interest in Hermes II now than there was when you were still running your old BBS. And even if someone did come up with some new Python externals, then the existing non-Python doors would probably stop working...

I'd contact the guy who runs ftelnet, Rick Parrish, via the contact tab at the top of the ftelnet home page. I think I had to do the same thing since I run a nonstandard telnet port. You should also register your BBS on the Telnet BBS Guide as they'll provide a direct telnet link to your BBS...

I tried it on both the 13" display and VGA monitor with adapter without any luck. I tried reseating the IC's without any change. Nubus pin connectors look good, and no obvious damage to the traces but there is a fair amount of cap leakage where you had it too, so I'll replace those and see...

Just picked up one of these video cards and it's not working with my Iici. Does it require a driver for System 7.5.5 or is it DOA?

Another option to get more door games for the latest version of Hermes II would be for someone to add the ability to use outbound RLOGIN connections from Hermes II. There are a bunch of door game servers out there, like Gold Mine, in which you connect from the BBS to the game server. You can...

Nice job! Love the LC III - I threw a Quadra 605 logic board with a 40 MHz 68040 in mine and it hums along nicely. And with a wifi BlueSCSI, you don't need to fill the PDS slot with an Ethernet card. I've got a IIe card mine.

From the ftelnet website: "Just head on over to the embed wizard and answer a few questions, then paste the javascript snippet onto your page, and you're done." And you can make the window bigger for your old eyes. 🤓 Check out this one for my Apple II BBS. There are some modern Mac ANSI drawing...

Crack registration codes for door games - he already did that for BlackJack Pro and Slycrel. A lot of people don't even know what a telnet client is. The ftelnet client can be "built in" to your webpage so users can skip the step of installing a telnet client on their computer or launching...

These all have been tested and will not work with any version above v3.5. And please let me know if you find any other archives of doors! I remember seeing mention of an adventure game called "Cries in the Dark" but have not come across it yet. I know a guy who can do that too, but as far as...

That's great - glad he's talking to someone! :D There would be no reason to use older versions of Hermes II if he could somehow make the older doors work with the latest version. If he needs it, I've got the source code and headers for some doors before and after v3.5.

Sure thing - see attached.

I could only get those six to work, and I've got the above 23 working with v3.1.1. Something happened with v3.5, I'm assuming something to do with the headers, where most door games stopped working...

Try my attached Externals folder. Now I remember that I also got rid of all the Python stuff in the Externals folder in order to get things to work - Leech 3.5 is not the Python version. I'm also not running Fidonet. I actually used your old thread on eMaculation to set up my Hermes II game...

I can confirm those six games work with v3.5 and above. And you can too by going to CQ II BBS -> Games -> Hermes II. I've got v3.5.11 running on there as a game server. Most of the games I've come across work fine. Blackjack Pro and Slycrel require registration numbers and Sidd Hartha, who...

I've found six games that work with v3.5 and above, and only Leech is written in Python. So some of the older games do work with the latest version of Hermes II. Here's what Miller had to say a year ago when I asked him about most doors not working: "Which externals are you having trouble...

Michael Alyn Miller, the current owner of Hermes II, thought he might be able to fix older door game support. That was about a year ago however, and I haven't heard from him since. His contact information is here, and maybe if we all show him that there's still interest in this he'd be more...
