Good morning fsxNet!
I'm trying to track down a new editor for my Ezycom board. I had been using Shawn Highfield's OPEN!Edit, but it started to misbehave, taglines mysteriously stopped working and messages were getting truncated.
I have switched to YARedit but it is very basic.
I tried a slew of editors to get here, like IceEdit, GoldED, etc, but all either gave the dreaded Runtime Error 200, or failed in some other way. GoldED for instance wouldnt work in Ezycom because it doesnt understand
2.00 message base format and produces garbage data when it tries to parse
message area names etc.
One of the first things you'll need to learn is how to get around RTE200 errors, you'll encounter them a LOT. I use patchcrt and run IceEdit on my RA compatible EleBBS system. The taglines don't work though, for some reason
the registration key works for the editor, but not the configuration program.
Is there a good "modern" FSE for DOS/Win32 with RA style MSGTEMP support? I can use all the standard door files like DORINFO, DOOR.SYS, and even DOOR32.SYS with Netfoss.
Cheers
