A new version of the CGA Server has been released as well as some more serial null modem games.
Server Changes
- Fixed a boneheaded error in the serial relay server code. If the second player disconnected and reconnected a new relay thread was created every time. This eventually made the server become very unstable and under Windows it would go into 100% CPU. Under Linux it would just seg fault and shutdown. This was because I forgot to check and make sure a thread had not already been created.
- Added some more error handling and logging.
Serial Games Added
- 1942 Pacific Air War
- Dawn Patrol: Head to Head
- Dogfight: 80 Years of Aerial Warfare
- F-15 Strike Eagle III
- Flight of the Intruder
- Hammer of the Gods
- Detroit
- Dark Legions
NOTE: Hammer of the Gods supports 4 players using NetBIOS over IPX, but unfortunately does not detect NetBIOS properly under DOSBox so I had to resort to serial null modem support.
