    How do you all get doors to work on modern systems, is it complicated? Everything I run says "This app can't run on this system,"

    If you're using Windows 10, you'll need to be using the 32-bit version of the OS. You'll then need to enable "Use Legacy Console". The next time you run a 16 bit program you should be prompted to install/enable NTVDM.

    Follow the directions in mystic/docs/ directory for getting the door going in Windows w/ netfoss.

    Depends on the door

    ..also depends on what OS you're running, generally older doors are not going to play well on 64bit OS. I use windows 32 bit OS and can get all the doors I want to work.
