    Synchronet running Yankee Trader


    The game plays perfectly in local. The issue is the game does not have fossil support. No matter what I try, YT keeps crashing at title screen with comport error.

    This is my 1st non-fossil game I am setting up. Only reason I want to set this
    game up, it was my personal favorite. Not much info to give. My setting in Synchronet are the standards using BAT file. I did a 1 node setup to ensure everything was
    simple.

    Thanks,
    teckkev

    Synchronet virtual UART/FOSSIL driver (sbbsexec.dll/dosxtrn.exe) for Windows NT-based OSes emulates a COM port (by default, COM1). See http://wiki.synchro.net/config:sbbsexec.ini for details.
