I'd love to have him with us. Exodus? :D I'll ping him on FB too. hehe
It so hard for me to sign up for any nets because I don't wanna poll
out. ;) I got 40+ nodes polling me all day for Metronet ... maybe if something was crashed my way ... might think about it .;)

anything about the continual development of Renegade? I looked at the site and there was a link to an Open Source project called
Renegade-Exodus but the build that was in there hasn't been updated for
9 years. It's still a DOS build and written in Pascal.

I will have to look into how well this runs under OS/2, if it is still available as a DOS package. Would be nice if he made a /2 version available :)

There was recent conversation that Renegade is and always will be a DOS package. I know there is a fork of a Linux build floating around as well.

Really cool to know that theres still users rocking OS/2. I jumped in,
with a BBS in fact, in early OS/2 days... have you heard anything, or
use, ArcaOS? I haven't...
I like this idea :) I was tossing around the idea of setting up an OS/2 based system here on my end alongside my existing WINServer systen.
Maybe running Wildcat! 4.2 for DOS, VA/2 or Telegard/2 :)

I actually had a talk with Exodus about this and he said that there was no plan to create a NEW Renegade at this point and that any code changes would only be applied to the current DOS version of the source code that they're working with.
None I will make anyways, but people are free to branch from the 1.19a code and make whatever ports they want. But then we run into "what ver is what ver".
Ignatius ported Renegade to Linux. He's running a Renegade instance of Cat 22 at: catch22.zapto.org:24
I think there where a few things that weren't working 100% that he's been working on fixing but it's up and running right now.
We should has out something here by summer for a new release, as our update.log is getting kinda long. <G>

Like ALL of it. The BBS won't load to screen unless I use mTelnet.
Then the lightbar stuff is all screwed up on screen. Then when I can "guess" which one is logon, I do and have not been validated in 5 weeks. (so it shows how much this turd looks at his bord). Then I try to
write a message, it gets to subject line and locks up on "aborted." and won't do anyting.

Porting this thing to linux is no small feat. Certainly not cause to call someone a turd, dickhead.
Well, when you put something out and then don't validate people for 5 weeks and it's half assed, yeah, I'll call it that. That is a person that doesn't care.

That, or maybe it's someone who has a life outside of BBSing (which I know be the case, since he is a friend of mine).
Can I go days without looking at this? Sure? Do I? No. Because I set this up for people to use. People can't use it, if they can't get to
the main menu. From that point on, there is no reason to have it (and advertise it). Which is what I am mainly getting at.

I think BBS elitist attitudes disappeared in the 90s when BBSing ceased to relevant. I still think you're being a little overly aggro here.
I remember seeing discussions about ArcaOS about a year and a half ago on Facebook, but it was mainly chatter. I didn't see anyone mentioning a successful build or installation of their Bulletin Board Software on
this NEW OS/2 release.

Not really. I wanted to call and check out another RG board. 5 weeks late I still cannot do that.
defile.dynu.net <== Its Renegade, its got a main menu too.

First of all, I actually do have a life. And, no. There have been no users named "Exodus" that have applied to my BBS. Get your facts straight, or you end up making YOURSELF look bad. BTW, why so esoteric about the ""official" Renegade? Are you still in the closet?
Well ... do you run Catch 22 or Frontier BBS (Renegade BBS's) ? If so,
I have accounts made on both of them as "EXODUS" and have been sitting there unvalidated for 5 weeks on both boards. All I get is the shuttle logon, enter my name and "you're note validated yet".
He runs Catch 22. Frontier BBS is run by Kruption. Regardless of who runs what, you are coming off a bit aggressive on your comments and responses ab Ignatius's attempt to run Renegade on Linux. Renegade is made for DOS. As
Ignatius has a lot of friends. Your issues of being validated could have be circumvented by asking anyone for assistance in contacting him. I think an
Ok. I searched my userlist (through the user editor) for you, and you are a actual user. For some reason you are not o the user list from the main menu In any case, you have been upgraded.

Nice I too am playing around with some DOS BBS stuff. Got a MBBS up and running but I would also like Renegade/Iniquity setup as well.
Thats whats in the works right now. Got some connection issues im trying
to work out right now.
Yeah, I have a SearchLight system set up on a separate port on my end here Been wondering if I should connect it to some networks or not :)
Do it, I have heard some really good things about Seachlight.
I would like to check out what you got going at some point.
To really take advantage of what Searchlight has to offer, you need to showcase RIP art on there. :D
