This is using the SYS;TS TRIVIA from tape 9006234 and the MADMAN;TRV SAVFIL from the same tape. Did this combination work for you? Or did you have to use the TS MUD54 from DM backup tapes?

Unfortunately I no longer remember which exact combination of files I used. But since I still have it working on TT, we can use that as a guide. I did not build anything new, all files were from various tapes.

So I'm guessing, you were able to get this running by creating a new SAVE file for MDL 54?

I don't think I did make a new SAVE file. Only existing files off the tapes.

So you must have used a TS MUD54 from ToTS and a corresponding MUDSAV;SAV FILE and MUDSAV;FIXUP FILE.

Yes. There are two different TRV SAVFIL, and possibly I could only use one of them. And similar goes for TS MUD54, and the SAV/FIXUP FILE pair. If these are all we need for TRIVIA, we should be able to see what I have on TT and match that to the tape files.
