Follow to using G-term on Land of Devastation over Telnet - I GOT IT WORKING! reddit / bbs ---------------------------------------------------------------------- tetatdo · 2020-03-27 22:18 This is a follow up to an archived thread I made a year ago ​ [https://www.reddit.com/r/bbs/comments/ax33kp/land\_of\_devastation\_d oor\_game\_trouble\_using\_gterm/](https://www.reddit.com/r/bbs/commen ts/ax33kp/land_of_devastation_door_game_trouble_using_gterm/) Basically the problem was this ​ 1. Connect to bbs 2. Select Land of Devastation 3. Kick off G-term 4. G-term gets stuck in a loop saying G-term graphics mode (or something to that extent) activated, over and over again. EDIT: I GOT IT WORKING WITH DOSBOX TOO!!!!!! You no longer need special hardware (wifi232). It's a little slow but working to try to fix that. ​ ​ I'm using the wifi modem firmware built by Paul Rickards on real old school PC hardware.... Reference to firmware: [http://biosrhythm.com/?page\_id=1453](http://biosrhythm.com/?page_id= 1453) Anyway, after trying literally everything from wiring up rts/cts and getting it to work, to even emailing Scott Baker, I got it to work!!! There's a setting on how the wifi232 firmware handles telnet connections, and if you set the setting ATNET1 and try it, it will work with no loop! Have fun. If anyone wants to play, i have a copy of G-term and a great BBS to play on is [convolution.us](https://convolution.us) ​ ​ Edit: Instructions on how to use with dosbox: ​ Use this guide, except the section where it says to modify dosbox.conf to serial1= modem, modify it to: **serial1=nullmodem server:(name of bbs) telnet** When you start dosbox, it will connect automatically to the bbs before you run anything, when you run gterm, it'll start streaming there. log into the bbs through your terminal program OR through gterm, whichever your prefer and load up LOD and it should work. ​ If it doesnt, mess with the baudrate setting, it should work somwhere between 2400-9600 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- mycall · 2020-03-28 15:33 convolution.us website down. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- tetatdo · 2020-03-28 20:32 try convolution.us:23 Just checked and it’s up and running ---------------------------------------------------------------------- tetatdo · 2020-03-29 15:54 its a telnet link.. ​ ​ I found another bbs that has a bunch of awesome doorgames including LOD! telnet://[dangerbaybbs.dyndns.org:1337](https://dangerbaybbs.dyndns.or g:1337) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- mycall · 2020-03-29 20:30 1337 nice.
