  • Fresh SBBS install question

    From RickV@1:154/110 to All on Mon Jul 6 10:40:17 2026
    Hello everybody!

    I did a fresh install on a different PC (Windows 11 w/ ntvdmx64 installed and working) to see if the auto-install for games would install the JNS and Sunrise games. It didn't. Why is it not seeing the JNS & Sunrise setup information and installing them? All the .js and .ini files for the games are in the /xtrn/3rdp-install directory. Anyone have a idea how to get them ti install?


    Thanks,
    RickV

    A lot of those games must be extracted and even have their own installer run first and then (and only then) can install-xtrn.js add them to your Synchronet configurtaion.
