    Anyone get LORDNET to run with v4.07 or v4.08b? I keep getting "LORDNET needs a registered copy of LORD to run." And LORD has been registered since 1995, so I have no idea what the problem is.

    Version 4.06 will probably work. As I recall, after that version the
    software changed ownership or something, and the registration code
    scheme changed, so the newer stuff probably can't be recognized by
    LORDNET. I don't think there's that much difference between 4.06 and
    the later minor releases.

    To follow up my own post.... I registered LORD back in the 90's, at
    version 3.something. When I resumed sysoping a few years ago, my valid registration would only work on any/all versions up to 4.06. Versions
    after that don't recognize my reg code.

    it didnt change ownership.
    some little kiss ass told metrogameport that the bbs community had a code generator. there's a generator for lord 4.7+ but i dont think anybody has it any longer.

    anyways, 4.7+ has some fixes and changes. i'd rather use 4.8 than 4.6
