I hope its not too bad coded :) It seems to produce NO Enforcer hits (so far :)). As I installed the FAME bbs system several weeks ago I recognized that there is still no FAME-Request Door out ... On /X I used the great REQUEST v1.0 by Therion/X-Design, so I decided to do an equal door for FAME. DreamRequest(tm) works like REQUEST v1.0, it looks like REQUEST v1.0, it can use REQUEST v1.0's old datafiles, its old Message.txt, its old Bulletin Design, BUT its a bit enhanced I think and hope. For easy configuaration I added a GUI. No more words needed ... start the crap! PS: Thanx to fanta ^ Aquarius/oTL ^ Static for their great REQUEST v1.0, its design and stuff! Great work! @endnode @node "Configuration" "Configuration" Configuartion The PrefsEditor: ---------------- There are several string gadgets, the first five define some files needed for running (at least one is needed). You may select em via a filerequest too. Try the small Button on the right side of the gadgets. Data File Name : The name of your data file. Ex-/X sysop should not forget that they can CONTINUE using the old REQUEST v1.0 Datafile. So NO requests will get lost. Name Message File : The name of your message design file. It contains the design of the message that DreamRequest(tm) will send. As you'r accustomed to do, there are the following Keywords available (they are CASESENSITIVE) °UserName ....................... what do you think? °Location ................ maybe the users location? °FileDescription .......... nah still havent got it? °UserComment1 .......... ok, these are the two lines °UserComment2 ............. of the "big" usercomment Of course you can use ANSI codes in the Design file, but make sure that you DONT use, e.g.: ESC[0m°ESC[36mUserNameESC[0m but: ESC[36m°UserNameESC[0m (only this will work in connection with keywords) Name Header File : The Header of your Request Bulletin, if you dont specify one, noone will be used ... its so easy Name Tail File : The Tail part of your Request Bulletin, for the rest look above Name Bull File : The name of the Bull DreaRequest(tm) can create, e.g. use fame:conferences/requests/bull100.txt so that your users see the Request Bulletin when they join the request conf (here located in "fame:conferences/requests/") Message Subject : The subject of the DreamRequest(tm) message. Separator : This is the small separator beetween entrys in the Bulletin File. To get the escape code (for colors etc) in the gui (in every gui) try L.Amiga+CTRL+ESC DelAccess : Here you can specify the access needed to delete every Message(maybe sysop level). Dont forget that every user can delete HIS requests, even if he DONT has the DelAccess Level Post To Conf : Conf Number to which DreamRequest(tm) will post the Request Message Maybe you have recognized that there are three more buttons: ------------------------------------------------------------ About : Small QUAKE Emulator for ECS Amigas, can be run in multitask. Its unbelievable fast! Save and Quit : Maybe saves your Configfile ... make sure that you run DreamReqPrefs from the directory with the D-req.fim in it!! Quit : Activates Fun-Mobile in red-blue and lightblue-white How to use: ----------- I dont wanna write about how to use that door ... just that it's "limited" to 99 requests, as I think that no sysop wants to have a Request Bulletin with 600 requests! If you should enter the 100th request, the door will automatically delete the first request. @endnode @node "Disclaimer" "Disclaimer" Disclaimer This software is provided as-is, without warranty of any kind, either expressed or implied.

Door will be installed now. Installer uses the small program called "DoorHeader" by Siegel/TRSI .. just that you know about :) You can also copy manual the files in the archive to your FAME: directory. Check FAME Documentation for how to install doors via SystemEditor. Contents of the Archive: doors:lsd/DreamRequest/DreamRequest.fim ; the mainprog /#?_header.txt ; some bull header /#?_tail.txt ; some tail header /DreamRequest.cfg ; a demo config /DreamReqPrefs ; the prefs gui /#?Message.txt ; some msg design /DreamRequest.guide ; your'r reading the crap Today I added 3 additional design files made by h2o (BullHeader/BullTail /MessageText). In the next version you'll be able to choose if you like to have the "old" REQUEST v1.0 stylish or fresh FAME stylish (by h2o) Design. I was too lazy to include this in the current version .. :) @endnode @node "Registration" "Registration" Registration If you'd like to have a version of DreamRequest(tm) with your name in it, just leave a mail to ZOD! at @{"THE SKYNET" link "THE SKYNET" 0} or any other nice BBS around the globe, or try /msg zod or /msg zod^lsd on IRC (#AmiElite).

At the begining not everything will be completly finished and because of this not everything you can already configure will work. The registered Versions have to work at least some days before they will be released for registered Users, but it's still possible that these versions also make problems when using them. But as soon as you've reported those problems, they will be fixed! If some of the settings won't work, it might be a bug but it's also (more) possible that those functions are not implemented yet. Some of the internal functions are currently untested and it's possible that they produce errors or problems, but please remember the complexity of FAME ! If you have questions or problems with FAME, please turn on one of the FAME-Developers or ask Strider to solve your problems. @{b}@{u}What should FAME costs ?@{ub}@{uu} Registered Version: 110 USD / 150 DM Betatester Version: 145 USD / 200 DM @{b}@{u}What is included in the FAME-package ?@{ub}@{uu} Server, SystemEditor, MainPart, FAMEHydra.FIM, FAMEError.FIM FAME.library FAMEChat.FIM programmed by Bloodrock/tRSi FAMEFullEd.FIM, FAMEScript.FIM programmed by Beatnik/tRSi MUI UserEditor, FAMEDoorHelp.FIM, FAMEInfo programmed by SieGeL/tRSi Also some doors and tools from the FAME-Development-Team are included, but this doors are only unregistered Versions and have therefor some limitations.
