I'm trying to install the Mystic Bot Check from Phenom Productions on a newly installed Mystic BBS (1.12 A48 Windows)

I've gone through the instructions on how to compile the script and to edit the menu file to insert where it needs to go, yet when I run the BBS it seems to skip over that and just go to the logon prompt as usual.

Is there anything I'm missing that I'm not understanding in the docs? Seems pretty straight forward, but for the life of me I can't get it to work. Unless the docs are wrong? Or it won't work in A48?

Any help is appreciated. (I don't normally run Mystic. I'm normally Synchronet and WWIV.)

Thanks!

I've got it running on v1.12 A49 (win 11). Give me a little bit and I'll review my setup and get back to you.

I checked my system for both the compiled mpx and that the prompt is correct per the instructions. The only thing I can think of is to make sure the prompt (mine is #259/554) is correct. "!botcheck1_2 TE detected." Also, I'm using botcheck version 1.2.
