there is only one version that was released of lord32bit. he had it on the site
for a very short time and then took it down. it was when that bullshit about
gamesport stealing his cut of registrations went on.

he also gave me a copy of 32 but i think it was just a few files.  i had to
marry it with lord 4.7's files and I didn't like the newer ansis so i put in
the old ones.  My bbses were the beta testers for lord because I had a lot of
users and they would give feedback.

I uploaded my copy.  for some reason the file_id.diz was for the fixed npclord
util so i changed that.   So lord32.zip is on vert now.

no you can't use dos igms with lord32.

Well that handful of sysops would just run it for the sake of running it. i
dont think they'd be happy.

People should be able to run 16bit doorgames if they want games on their
bbses.  lord32 is limited because you can't use the different igms and npc
programs and utils that you can in a 16bit environment. igms really expand the
game.

not sure if preslar would like me releasing this but people like lordtime were
releasing it for almost 20 years on their bbs.   also i'm sure hundreds of
people have lord32 because it was on my BBStorrents site and tons of people
downloaded from it.

The thing that is a true shame is we won't ever have the web version of lord
which I really liked. I was able to test that out.
