Ok. I have scanned and tried to read all the post here but I cant find anything to help me out. I have WG set up. When I start WG I get WorldGroup Server and nothing else. Where is the menu I see everyone talking about in the TUTs.



I have other questions but I dont have AIM.

gotta set it up for a dos-ish screen..then windows screen blows, you can't do shit..



I forget how do it though..

note step 3

I mean the menu after you start wg after the instalation.

ok, i see you have 238 posts so you're probably not talking about trying to set up a bbs, my bad. but you need to be a little more specific here. simply asking about "a menu after WG starts," "or right after the installation" is pretty vague. are you talking about the alternate (dos) console window?



go into the registry:



HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Galacticomm\Worldgroup Server\CurrentVersion



Change UseConsoleWindow from "0" to "1"

now you are ready to come online for the first time. go ahead and bring up the BBS. once it is online, you must enter the MUD game and stay in the game until WG finishes running the majormud update. first time usually takes 10-15 minutes.



OK this is where im having the problem. I started the worldgroup server. But i dont see any screen the will let me enter the game. Is there anything else i need to do to bring the bbs up.

lol ... man. ok.



when that screen comes up, the server is running. there isn't anything else windows based that goes along with it unless you use the crappy C/S windows. just telnet now to your IP address (start --> run --> "telnet x.x.x.x" where x.x.x.x is your ip address).

Sweet. Thanx Syntax. :) One last question. Where do I find for mud?

we dont supply that kind of info here. though if you are using a cracked dll you dont need them. just put in like 10 A's in the WG "security and accounting" under mud. and then also in mud just before you enter the realm, go to the sysop menu and add module activation codes for each of the mods --again, just put in whatever.

Thanx for the help Syntax. I did as you said and I tried to enter game it gives me this message.



We're sorry, but the game is currently full.

Please ask your sysop to upgrade his/her user license!





any ideas.
