  • Bluewave 386 compatibility question

    From Xucaen@VERT/TIMEPORT to All on Sun Nov 22 19:24:23 2015
    I found a copy of Bluewave 386 it runs fine in DosBox. I downloaded a QWK packet from my bbs, and replied to a message, and uploaded the .REP. Sbbs throws up an errors: "!Filtering QWK message from (null) due to age: 1459 days"

    o_O


    So should I assume from this that Bluewave QWK is not compatible with sbbs?

    Most likely, a Y2K bug (in Bluewave). There were patches available for BlueWave to fix that, if I recall correctly.
