Back in the good ol' days if you didn't have native rip support, you could substitute rip files for ans files and move your ans files to asc files. This would give you default rip with fallback to ansi in the case of missing rip/ans files. Never saw a rip client without ANSI support.
Yes, I don't think I said RIP clients don't have ANSI support..?
Well, just an FYI - there are several bbSes (and networks) that offer
LoRD w/ RIP. Fairly sure that DoorParty has a RIP option in RPG 1, and I've played using RIP at other bbSes, too... they're out there.
The easiest way to use RIP is with the newest (beta?) SyncTerm - you
have to create a ~/.syncterm/cache for any extra sound/files. If you run Windows, RipTel will get you connecting.
Black Flag bbS has two RIP-only bbSes; one uses RIP 1.5 and one uses RIP 3. (A Searchlight and a Mystic bbS.)

Well been using Netrunner this whole time. Going to have to finally give the one a try and probably re-enter my phone book. I didn't even
realize that Mystic had a RIP option. I will have to check that out.

is there any good windows based rip graphics programs to make menus?
I know PabloDraw can create .rip graphics. I am not sure how you get mystic to display .rip however? do you just save the graphics file as an .asc and SyncTerm will display it properly? If someone could explain that part of it I would appreciate it.
I don't know about Mystic, but for Synchronet, RIP files are saved with
a .rip extension. And the filename extension doesn't matter for
Yeah, I tried saving them as .rip files. but mystic did not seem to show the file when requested. So not sure what you have to do in mystic to get it to show a .rip

Yea, RIP is basically ASCII files that are converted by the terminal software - so Mystic has the capability of sending them; just like SIXE gfx... problem is not a lot of people DESIGN RIP anym0re - bbSes likeis there any good windows based rip graphics programs to make menus?

I'm pretty sure you can. In the 90s, I remember trying a RIP terminal
on some BBSes that didn't have any RIP menus or anything, but RIP-supporting doors (such as Legend of the Red Dragon) could detect RIP capabilities in the user's terminal and RIP would work in the door.
Remember some of the old doors that had graphical clients? The blog 'Break into chat' wrote about some of these - I remember playing one or too using their own terminal softwares to get those graphics.

Also, years ago, I found out that Operation: Overkill II has some
extended sound support, and SyncTerm supports that.. If you play Operation: Overkill II with SyncTerm, when the game asks you if you're using an OOII terminal, try answering Yes, and you should hear a sound when you first enter the game.
Neat. I'll have to do some testing, as I'd love to offer LoRD w/ RIP at
2o - but not system-wide... worth checking out.

If you guys get his going I would love to see this return to the scene. Back when this was out I was too lazy as a kid looks for the warez
boards and only played ANSI as a result. Would love to see what I
missed out on.
