I walked away from things here a while ago, but I want you guys to know I am finishing concepts for a program which will automatically launch dosbox (with netmech) at a given time (based off a central server) so that players know and play when we are all playing.

I suppose it will use the current dosbox server we have for netmech games, but I will see if we can't get some p2p based connectivity as we'll to release mmpd from some worries.

Myg out.

I am sorta giving up games, so this program never got any attention.

Sorry guys. I am sure someone here can make it a community project.

Steps:
- Tray icon program with central server over TCP sockets.
- Update/sync then start dosbox with command prompt at que.

This is an excellent idea. I just hope that someone picks up the project soon. Maybe Col. Kell could get involved?

i believe MYG became a father a few years back, so i'm sure he had to shift his attention to being a family man, and maybe focus his programming efforts on work. I'm sure if you work as a Programmer, you kinda get burnt out to do more programming in your free/non-working time plus personal obligations
