History File of T&J Video Poker! ========================================================================== March 9, 1994 === Version 1.61 -- Well, somebody figured out they could enter their bet in exponential terms (i.e. 2.0E+12) and get around the seven digit max bet (i.e. 9999999). Fixed! Special thanks to Glenn Snow for pointing this out! ========================================================================== February 22, 1994 === Version 1.6 -- Updated to DoorFrame v3.1 routines. -- Added RIP detection which will automatically set a 80x25 text window. -- Added Last Week's High Score/Person to the bulletins. -- Added All Time High Score Date to the bulletins. -- Dropped support for CHAIN.TXT. -- Added a DONATED.BY file. If the door is registered, and somebody registered the door for you, just create a file called DONATED.BY and place the persons name in the file. ========================================================================== July 26, 1993 === Version 1.5 -- Added better support for Wildcat! IM and PCBoard/M versions. -- Added new features for more sysop configuration options such as blanking the screen when a remote caller is online, blanking the sysop control lines, and assigning the keyboard timeout parameter. -- Added the ability to play another round of Video Poker (if you have a play left) when you quit. -- Revised the KEY routines to support a VIDEOP.KEY file instead of entering the information in the sysop.cfg file. -- PRESS TO CONTINUE now waits for the ENTER to be pressed and not just any key. -- Added the ability to input a CUSTOM reset date for those of you who want the door to play longer than the standard 7 days! -- Added STANDARD or CUSTOM modes of play! STANDARD is with the standard betting options, CUSTOM the user may enter bets up to $9,999,999!!! -- Modified the VPUTIL.EXE program for the added options and moved the VPUTIL.EXE program inside the main code. It is now accessed by typing VIDEOP UTILITY -- Added better internal error controls which should get rid of any PRESS ENTER TO CONTINUE errors (BBS lockups). ============================================================================= April 4, 1993 -- Version 1.4 -- When fixing the midnight rollover problem, I created another one! All is working now. ============================================================================= March 28, 1993 -- Version 1.3 -- Problem developed supporting DORINFOx.DEF...corrected. If you are not using DORINFOx.DEF there are no other changes. -- Fixed a problem with the "midnight rollover". If somebody logged on before midnight, and played until the next day they would have no plays left on the "new" day....fixed. ============================================================================= February 27, 1993 -- Version 1.2 -- Added support for COM0 to 15. -- Got rid of the nightly maintenance routines. Door will now perform the required maintenance by itself! -- Lowered memory requirements by making a seperate VPUTIL.EXE program for setting the door up, etc. -- Revised the high hand data. If the winner of the jackpot fails to claim it, it's now added to the next days jackpot. -- Fixed a problem that only occurred with UBBS systems. -- Modified the VIDEOP03.DAT file. -- Corrected an OVERFLOW (Error code 6) problem if two people were using the door at the same time. NOTE: See VIDEOP.DOC for upgrade information! ============================================================================= January 14, 1993 -- Version 1.1 -- Fixed problem with reading in the players.dat file - everything was really getting messed up. I messed around with the code after the beta team had already tested it -- that should teach me! Sorry for the problem..... ============================================================================= January 10, 1993 -- Version 1.0 -- Initial release of the door! -- Special thanks to the following boards/SysOp's who participated in the BETA testing of this door: Joe Hale (White Room!
