I found something very damn cool....



I no longer have to down my bbs to install any updates....



Make that wccupda2.dat file with nightmare... with all yer edits and crap done... copy it over while the bbs is running (yes you can do that!) and then apply the update in the mmud sysop menu... and walla about 10 min later you have all your updates in place!!!



It works... I just watched it add about 20 rooms and changed a few items around... its sweet!!!

you sure did find something very damn cool. you musta read one of these.

what do you mean?

no .... don't gotta take down the bbs to copy the update over... less down time for the users.... is all I was saying..... damn....



and the DLL reads the update file... but if it doesn't find the file it makes a dummy file..





whatever.... I thought it was cool and I'd share it.
