    I updated yesterday to 3.20, and after a comedy of errors on my side along with tiredness I think I have everything back up except a few door games are now doing this. They are DOS using DosEMU and work when I call dosemu from the command line. They also worked before, some DOS Emu games are working post update, and it could be something I did on my end. That considered, just wondering if someone will see this and immediately know why it's erroring like this.

    Ugh, I'm a mess lol, I posted again in unix because didn't realize I was in the wrong sub. I'm not sure if deleting it takes care of the distro too. Anyway, I think for some reason my TSR is no longer working after upgrade. That's my guess anyway. The DOS programs that are running I don't need the TSR. The ones that are now throwing the error are.

    Basically some of the old DOS games I was unable to patch, but in the past I could run a TSR and take care of it.

    i.e.
    tppatch.com
    doorgame.exe

    If I do that from inside DOSEmu it still works as it did in the past, but when I call the batch file from Synchronet it throws the exception which I assume is the RTE 200 error. Unfortunately the three games doing this are the most important ones to me, hah, so I'd really apprecaite any help, guesses, insight.

    Thanks!
