I forget what caused that but it was a stupid setting I had messed up. Something like not having the port forwarded or something simple.

Check your settings.

1.3.7 runs fine here.

Or maybe the location of the MRC directory. I think I ran into it when I made a new theme and forgot to copy the MRC into the new theme script dir.

I've heard of that reported, but haven't experienced it myself. I believe it was commonly an installation error.

Make sure your theme.ini files are in the scripts directory and the ansi's are in the Text directory. I had the same sort of issue a while back. That could be it.

Sorry for my interim question. MRC 1.3.7 - that's not a Mystic Release Candidate - isn't it?

Don't be worried, my mind is equally fucked and when I read MRC, I thought MRO and got DOVEnet trauma, immediately :)

We have a winner, appears I missed a step of copying the text files. Thats what I get for trying to install while distracted :)

Thanks everyone

Unfortunately, that doesn't answer my question. Is this a Mystic version or something completely different?

I'm curious, since I'm still using Mystci version 1.12. A49.

Ah, okay - thanks for explanation. Abbreviations can sometimes be confusing.

A further development of the Mystic version would have been too good to be true.

Thanks for the explanation. I was confused that this post was posted in "Mystic BBS Support/DEV," and that the version number would have been perfectly fitting as the next Mystic release. The abbreviation "MRC" could also have been "Mystic Releases Candidate."

Unfortunately, after an eight-year break, I've only been back online for two weeks now, so I'm missing the previous posts.

But it's nice that I can ask without any problem.

I wish you a nice start to this week.
