Anyone else running LOD (Land of Devastation) or AOSS (Avatars of Screaming Steel)?

I Just installed both and was playing around. I remember LOD from the OLD BBS days and the VGA (but since I'm on a ESXi VDi install, there is no sound card). I may see if the VGA version will still work - then I can locate my VGA PLANETS backup.

Well I added doorparty a while back so pretty sure those exist. If you find VGA Planets let me know I would love to play that one. Not sure how it will work online but want to see it.

I was curious about VGA Plannets from my beginnings of bbsing. But does it work

on modern computers?

... Gone crazy, be back later, please leave message.

I am trying to grab the old Spitfire BBS files from my 2120 Tape backup for testing .. even if under a fossil, not sure yet .. may need to test under DOSBOX -- if I can grab them of course -- tried to locate install files from the Internet, but didn't have time for a deeper search to locate.

Thats what I was thinking since it normally needs to talk on a modem. How would you get it to work online. Can you even get a telnet software to pass off the connection and then come take it back over after you exit?
