I don't like navigating around with the vertual viewers, I use hal And I always loose my damn place. I have used windowbridge to. I have 3 problems, I have used tpatch on all agt files but on cosmoserve I still get runtime error 203. I know /b may help me with agt games reading but I can't get dostads command for bios mode, that would rock. I have html tads and winfrotz tts on here.
