So when you run a door in Mystic it will create three drop files in the temp
dir of the user running the door. The temp dir depends on which node on
Mystic they are logged into.

24/04/2019  03:08 p.m.    <DIR>          .
24/04/2019  03:08 p.m.    <DIR>          ..
24/04/2019  03:08 p.m.               187 CHAIN.TXT
24/04/2019  03:08 p.m.               292 DOOR.SYS
24/04/2019  03:08 p.m.                94 DORINFO1.DEF

I would opt for DORINFO1.DEF

It seems Mystic creates this file name each time a user is logged in so the
number 1 in the file name remains the same. It's also a simple drop file to
my mind and contains less things in it that could be misread by the game.

Perhaps I try to set up a copy of this game myself (I am also using win7 32
bit) and then I'll be in a better place to guide you.

Where can I grab a copy of the game Shane?

Best, Paul
