• File & MSG group Info files

    Hey there,

    I'm trying to figure out where the info ansis go for the message/file groups. They don't seem to go into themes or the base mystic folder.

    Does anyone use these and know? Its not on the wiki...

    Well I've figured out my problem, its actually the FGROUP and GROUP ansi's. However that still leaves the question.. What is the "Info file" field for?

    Hey "TheNerd!"

    So I use ANSI's for groups on both my BBSes. You want them within /mystic/themes/defaults/text/group*.ans * replaced with whatever the group ID is. Mystic should auto detect it's existence and display it for you. Hope this helps.
