[ WT-LORD CONFIGURATION MANAGER | GAME OPTIONS | PLAYER EDITOR | IGM MANAGER | LANGUAGE FILTER ]


WT-LORD CONFIGURATION MANAGER
Now, let's configure Wildcat Tournament Legend of the Red Dragon!

From your Door Menu (or where ever you place the option to run WT-LORD), run the WT-LORD and select (U)se Sysop Config to enter the Configuration Utility.

When LORDCFG has loaded, we come to the following screen:




Here's a more detailed explanation of each option:

(G)ame Options - Allows you to change most of the settings for the game.

(S)etup Tournament Mode - Allows you to set up WT-LORD's Tournament Mode. This

feature allows you to set the number of days your tournament will run and what
prizes you'll offer to the winner of the Tournament. And of course, it allows you
to turn it ON and OFF.

(P)layer Editor - Here you can edit almost anything in the player's accounts in the
game. * Registered Only.

(E)nter Registration Code - When you register WT-LORD, you will get a unique
registration code. Here is where you enter it.

(T)urn "On Now" stat off for all players - If the game says that a player is still in the
game, and you know he is not, this will toggle the ON flag for all players.
Useful if the game locks up and says it still has players in there.

(F)ix Marriage Problems - Fixes any marriage data file anomaly, such as ones that
may be caused from upgrading to other versions of WT-LORD. This option
will unmarry everyone in the game and correct the problem.

(I)ntro ANSIs are ENABLED/DISABLED - Allows you to enable/disable the opening
ANSI screens when someone goes into the game.

(M)onster Editor (NEW!) - This allows you to edit all the monsters in WT-LORD. This
is 100% safe and encouraged! You can restore the default settings it at anytime.

(C)hat Wall Editor (NEW!) - This allows you to mess with the users minds or interact
with the game (or both at once ). Have fun adding new text from NPC's such as
Barak (hehe fun..) or by modifying other users text.

(!)Igm Manager (NEW!) - Instead of the 3RDPARTY.DAT in the original LORD for
DOOR.SYS, we've implemented an easy-to-use menuing system instead. This
allows you to QUICKLY and EASILY add, modify, and remove IGMs from
WT-LORD.

(U)nique Game ID is '#' - If you are running more than one copy of WT-LORD on your
system, you will need to give each game a unique game ID for them all work
properly.

(W)eapon Editor (NEW!) - This allows you to edit all the Weapon names in WT-LORD. This
will *NOT* allow you to edit the stregnths and prices of them, however (sorry! :).

(A)rmour Editor (NEW!) - This allows you to edit all the Armour names in WT-LORD. This
will *NOT* allow you to edit the stregnths and prices of them, however (sorry! :).

(Q)uit and Save - This option will save any changes that you have made in the WTLORD
configuration and return you to the BBS.
GAME OPTIONS
When you select Game Options from the Main Menu in the WT-LORD Configuration Manager, you are presented with a screen:




Here's a more detailed explanation of each Game Option:

(D)eletion Grace Period is Currently 15 days - This option allows you to set the MAXIMUM

number of days that a player can miss before he is deleted out of the game.

(G)iving credit to NO ONE! for registering - You an optionally add your name, or if a user
registered WT-LORD, you can put his name here as well. Leaving it blank will just
show "UNREGISTERED!" in the title screen. * Registered Only

(F)orest Fights Per Day - This option allows you to increase the number of Forest Fights
per day that a player is allowed to have. It is recommended that you do not set this
higher than 30. Giving a player more than 30 forest fights per day means that they
will advance through the game rather rapidly. Lowering it to a number lower than 15
will make the game move real slow! * Registered Only

(H)uman Fights Per Day - This option determines how many user battles, or player fights
he is allowed per day. Setting this to a number greater than 3 means that everybody
in the game gets slaughtered. * Registered Only

(C)lean Mode - If you run a good wholesome family BBS, turn this on. This option toggles
whether or not if players can get laid by Violet or Seth Able the Bard. If set to on,
WT-LORD will announce proudly when someone got laid.

(B)ank Options, Transfer Funds - This option determines whether or not players are allowed
to transfer gold from their bank account into another player's bank account.

(M)ax Bank Transfer Amount - This determines the maximum amount of gold a player is
allowed to transfer to another player's bank account.

(P)er Day, How many Bank Transfers - This option sets the maximum number of gold
transfers a player is allowed in one day. You can also set this to "No Limit" if you
choose.

(R)eset EVERYTHING - Use this only in extreme cases or when first installing the game!
When you choose this, WT-LORD will empty out all player records, and everything
else. Note: Legend of the Red Dragon will not reset itself when a player finishes the
game. He/She will only be reset back to level 1 unless they have finished the number
of heroic deeds needed to win the game (see below).

(A)mount of Deeds Needed To Win Game - The allows you to set the number of times a user
needs to defeat the Red Dragon in order to totally beat the game.

(L)ord Bulletin Outputs - If you would like WT-LORD to keep an updated score file available for
viewing through your BBS, be sure to define your paths AND filenames here.

(*)Game Difficulty (NEW!) - Allows you to globally adjust the stregnth of the monsters in the
forest. Levels range from BEGINNER to AGAINST ALL ODDS.

(Q)uit - Quits to the Main Menu.
