Installation Instructions

  1. Download the wg33cd.zip and patched-galtlcw.zip files listed below.
  2. Unzip the wg33cd.zip somewhere and run the installation. Don't install to C:\Program Files\Galacticomm\Worldgroup Server; make it go to C:\WGSERV instead. You'll need an activation code – e-mail questman at themajorbbs dot com to get a free 4 line code. Be sure to setup the IP address the same as one of the IPs in your Windows NT/2000/XP/2003/2008/Vista configuration.
  3. Once you're installed, start the BBS, verify its working, then shut it down.
  4. Open regedt32 and change the following values:
    1. Select HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, SOFTWARE, Galacticomm, Worldgroup Server, CurrentVersion
      Change useConsoleWindow and set the value to 1
    2. Select HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, SOFTWARE, Btrieve Technologies, Microkernel Workstation Engine, Version 6.15, Settings
      Change Max Files to 1000 (hex, it's 4096 decimal), and change Max Handles to 1000 (hex, it's again 4096 decimal). Ensure Max Locks is ff (255)
  5. Unzip the DLL file from patched-galtlcw.zip into the BBS directory (C:\WGSERV), overwriting the old GALTLCW.DLL
  6. Start it back up and you can even try to connect it to WorldLink – the address is worldlink.themajorbbs.com (put that as the 'phone number' in the WL dialer module on the BBS)
