  • PatchWC! v3.00 Release

    From Joe Martin@21:1/5 to All on Fri Oct 25 19:42:56 2019
    Hi folks...

    I have finalized the PatchWC! program which will patch your Wildcat!
    family of executables to prevent Wildcat! from dropping carrier on your
    callers when they exit from a door.

    The distribution archive is called PWC300.ZIP and is available for
    immediate download.

    Following is a DropBox link where the ViaSoft Support Files are
    (including PatchWC! and ViaMAIL!) allowing you to download it and
    various others.

    when exiting door.

    So is it safe to say you 'used' PatchWC! to fix the issue, or you're
    just 'deleting' the SYSINFO.DAT file on return to the BBS?. I would use PatchWC! if you haven't so you don't have that issue moving forward.

    I'am using Wildcat 4.12 and PatchWC! is for higher versions :(

    Interesting. I was able to download this just fine on my Debian 9.11 VM
    using Firefox ESR. Odd indeed.

    But, it is still recommend that you download, install and run Joe's
    patch to fix other issues.

    Was able to download it this time as well as ViaUUCP!. I had to UNP and RTPatch all of the EXEs, but was able to get it to work. Now I saw
    something about a small utility that will import wcGate configurations?
    I also use fxUUCICO instead of the dial UUCP client you have packages to transmit packets over TCP. Will that work as well if I bring in the
    configs for that as well?
