  • Welp

    From Retroswim@21:2/121 to Exodus on Tue Sep 23 18:23:10 2025
    Welp, I did it, I filled EZ-ROM CD-ROM Door to the max of 228 Shareware CDs. <tear> ;)

    I've found that I can't have files >64MB in my filebase on Ezycom 2.15g1. They adopt OK, but if you try to queue it, your session drops. The error in the log file is an overflow of some sort.

    One day I'll sit down and upgrade further, maybe even get 3.00 working if we can unearth a compatible key!

    The temptation is to set up a modern 'frontend', but man I love operating Ezycom. It's a leap back into my formative years.

    Cheers,
    RetroSwim

    Every release he raised it. It started as 96, then worked its way to
    228. So it MAY or MAY NOT explain this.

    ... Don't confuse me with facts.
    Hi Exodus,

    The era of the early BBS systems differs from today in two ways:

    1. Everyone was interested in these technical aspects of programming.

    2. If you weren't interested, you just kept your mouth shut.

    Confuse no other...

    What did that have to do with how many CDs it was able to read?

    ... Finish the project. We'll buy you a new family.
