Quoting Akacastor to Tiny <=-

There were a few issues I had to solve to get Silver Xpress working:

Wow quite a bit of work. I'll check it out later today or tomorrow, I
know I had my sx reader install in a dos box somewhere....

I honestly thought it was going to be harder to get it working!

Now I am just missing a keygen for Silver Xpress reader 4.01 - I didn't find one on The Titantic BBS, but it seems likely that one should exist somewhere.

That's the same one I used to register the Silver Xpress door, but the reader (4.01) has a different registration key format.

I found one that does 2.8->3.01 ... maybe come grab that one and see if it works on 4.01 .... still looking though, will let you know if I find anything else.

Looks like the registration system changed in 4.x, the 2.8->3.01 keygen creates a registration code but 4.01 wants a registration code AND serial number.

I found some Chinese hex editor info for 4.01, maybe you can get some use of it. I uploaded it to your board.

... My guru told me there'd be lifetimes like this.

Looks like SE401SER.TXT works (assuming this message makes it out !), it's a 1-byte crack that allows you to enter any registration code and serial
number.

Keygen is always nice, but a convenient crack ain't so bad either. :)

I do wonder how many Chinese users of Silver Xpress there are / were.

The SE401SER.TXT written by Chen Chun-han is a nice succinct one-byte crack, presumably for a Chinese audience as the text file is written in Chinese.

Makes me curious about the history of BBSes in China!

not china, but the taiwanese bbs history is hype a.f.

and the artwork too.

full unicode artwork boards you can log in to today. there are a few websites with instructions for creating an account and poking around, but at some point you're stuck not knowing the language. i wish i had stuck with my mandarin classes back in the day..

Cool ... took a while to hunt that thing down. :)

... OPINIONS? I have lots. Which one would you like?

From what I understand, BBSes are still going strong there as they are "the underground".

It's cool to see it... I'm sure it will corrupt everything. LOL
