Moria 4.8

[za...@sdcc3.uucp]

Does anybody have the executable for Moria 4.8 (or any vers
for that matter)...I have all the source code, but the
compiler dumps me half way thru, and I need the executable
to play the game (quota not a problem...) If somebody could
set it up so I could ftp it from a remote machine itd be
great...

I have the binary and the source for moria 4.8 available for FTP from
argon (128.109.139.64). The login should be account anonymous and
THE PASSWORD SHOULD ALSO BE "ANONYMOUS" since I can't figure out how to
allow ftp to access an account without a password. (Anybody know how to
do this with an Execlan board on a MicroVMS machine?) When you get logged in,
CD to LOCAL:[games.moria_480]. I don't know how cleanly the binary will
transfer but you can try it.

The network and node specified by 128.109.139.64 seems to be
unreachable from here (we only have arpanet access, I believe)
so unfortunately I haven't been able to retrieve the code...
has anybody else had more sucess, and if so, could that someone
have the binaries posted in a FTP account thats reachable by
the ARPAnet? This sounds like a great game, but all I can do
now is scan the help files and the sources (Ive even begun
considering porting the whole thing to UNIX, but imagine the
work involved in converting the VMS pascal to something runnable
under UNIX...yeccch!)

Thanx, (may the Balrog eat cold iron soon at this node!)

I would like to see this source code, or the source code to any Moria
or Rogue like game. I will talk to the system manager here at Haverford to
see if we can provide a Moria executable image.

We just got on to USEnet, and the game Moria seems
very interesting. Can someone send me a copy of source for
Ultrix system.

Sorry, but Moria is written in highly VMS-dependent Pascal, and
while I keep hearing about people trying to port it to Unix, to
the best of my knowledge, it hasn't been done yet. (Im sure that
when it does, it will be on the net FAST!) As its a great game,
if you have access to VMS, the sources are available from two
places I know of:
jade.berkeley.edu (anonymous)
tcgould.tn.cornell.edu (anonymous)
