[RTSLORD / CXO-LORD] T-LORD with Distant Places - Can't access IGM from within T-LORD, other weird stuff #491
Comments
Couple interesting things happening here. Installer EXE SupportEXE support is still in its early stages -- the error in this case is that .IGM File SupportThis one might be an issue with Tournament LORD finding the IGM's based on finding a file by a file pattern. This could be a defect with any number of methods which provide file search functionality. We need to take a look at this scenario to see what's happening. DLL IGM SupportHonestly I'm curious how Tournament LORD does the inspection of other module DLL's loaded into the system and invokes them dynamically. One thing you do bring up here is that there are modules we might not want to display in the main menu, but still have loaded into the system. For this item I feel like there are two take-aways from this defect report:

Module Information
Describe the bug
There are a couple issues here, hopefully I can get away without having to file independent issues :) First off, installing via the included executable doesn't work (link to original archive: http://www.prowler-pro.com/majorbbs/cwdli12d.zip ). I tried MBBSEmu -exe and pointed at the executable and received the following error:
I manually installed the module by unzipping it and reading
INSTALL.CFG
- all one needs to do to install it as an IGM into T-LORD is captured in there, however I'll paste the contents of interest directly here to speed things up (do this from T-LORD directory):Now, I'd expect to see the IGM listed as available when launching MBBSEmu and then launching T-LORD (as Sysop, from Sysop menu -> IGM) but it doesn't appear:
However, if I add CXO-LORD directly to my manifest json (identifier CXO-LORD) and relaunch MBBSEmu, I can see it - thing is, I can see it directly from inside MBBSEmu which feels incorrect as well as from within the T-LORD IGM setup thing.
Now, when launching T-LORD, the IGM is available in the (O)ther places menu. However when trying to launch it, it doesn't load the CXO-LORD dll, it actually relaunches T-LORD. Very strange.
I notice when it does this, it creates a
TEMP0.TMP
file - this actually is required for launching Distant Places. If you try to launch Distant Places from directly within MBBSEmu it won't work because that file is missing. If you manually create it or if you try to launch from within T-LORD, fail, then manually launch from MBBSEmu, it'll actually work. However, it has even more problems ... the math and values for things it awards you seems way off. It also doesn't seem to save anything to my character. So...yeah, pretty strange.Thanks for reading.
