Okay this first part in my series of obv/2 mod's is basically just an
over view of what and why I am doing this. Several of the future volumes are
near completion and should be out within the next 2 to 3 weeks.
The reason I am doing this is because I am so freaking tired of seeing
new bbs`es going up daily, using obv/2(becoming more popular), and all it is
is the stock version of obv/2. ACK! obv/2 is so freaking powerful and sysop
configurable that there is no excuse for this.
in the following volumes I will show ya how to do the following. Where
indicated by a * I will provide an example, usually really simple since you
should be original and make your own.
simple pulldown menus *
random ANSI's(in pulldowns and else where)
changing and making ANSI's for strings *
standard ANSI's(welcomes, prelogon's ect.) *
complex pulldown menus *
setting up RIP in obv/2 *
setting up a data area *
adding more stuff to the libraries
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
and finally a complete BBs setup using obv/2 all setup
and ready to run, all nice and neat showing you how to
get this stuff working.
*PLEASE NOTE: THIS WILL MOST LIKELY BE RELEASED
UNDER PçP, A DOC WILL BE RELEASED THROUGH TlG
STATING WHEN IT WILL BE RELEASED*
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
okay now that we have that set...I'll help ya get everything setup to start
with.
make a directory called obv and copy your obv2-230.zip file to this directory
and unzip ONLY that file leave the other zip files alone. type install.
for the bbs directory put in c:\obv. hit enter on all the lib. files(menus and
stat sets). load your fossil driver(bnu, ect...), set dszlog=c:\obv\dszlog.1.
you should add those to your config and autoexec(config if ya use the bnu.sys
instead of bnu.com). set up your com info, and leave everything else the same.
this way as the stuff come ouyt you will have a fresh install to play with it,
and you won't have problems looking for directories and crap...hell, ya dunt
even need to set up the com stuff until your ready to open your bbs.
TlG, falcon, falcon's fun furry animals, and anyone else for that matter, are
not in anyway to be blamed for your mental health, computer, and little sister
sally, weather the changes are good or bad. {isn't that the SHITTEST disclaimer
you've ever seen?, read disclaimer! for the real one}
