I'm a returning player, been back for a couple weeks. I have a newbie character stuck behind a locked door below the Dripping Dagger. I know there's a quest or several in this area--I've done them in the past--but it's been five years or so. I was gone for so long that I can't remember commands, and...

Thay, Aglarond, Rashemi, Nar. Forest? Plains? Mountains? Hills? Desert? Blind player, and I'm still exploring (sure we all are) which means I don't know the terrain more to the east as I've not explored it fully yet. Unfortunately, giving me names helps me look at the FR wikis, but not necessarily k...

The nickname system would go like this: feather-hilted steel longsword nickname s1 or whatever. Yes, aliases could work for this. The keywords set by the builder/creator would still be there: feather, sword, long, longsword, etc I would often combine aliases and nicknames on other games. Something l...

Not being able to see the map... What terrain makes up the eastern part of the land that's already in existence? Does the tow need to fit in with that terrain? Are you strictly looking for something for the eastern section somewhere? Are we talking small village, quaint little bitty settlement, grow...

I didn't read the entire thread yet. That said, I have some ideas/suggestions. Again :D 1. have a command that will let you see keywords of an object, maybe even make it so you can modify the keywords you want, like a nickname system on LP muds. 2. Make a command that allows you to see the actions/v...

I agree with Hrosskell. An inventory quaf would be amazing. Beyond amazing, in fact. we're not classified as an RPG, but there is heavy RP that goes on here, some of the best I've seen. I don't see how the classification makes a difference on what types of potions we get :) Ah, for the games where a...

Could we please have a command so that we can manually remember someone? Please, don't flame or get upset with this request. Or at least, let's not argue about it. I know, first of all, that we are not to push someone to greet us. It's their right not to, just as it's up to us if we want others to k...

What if you want pink or red or white velvet, not purple? :) I jest, but I am serious, too. I come from other games in which you can pick the material and color separately. It feels limiting to, if one wants brown clothing, be stuck with a cloth type that perhaps a char may hate. But.. and this is f...

Well, blah. I didn't have this thread marked to send me replies, and then life happened, so I only just now found the post about that open day on Nov. 29. I'm sorry to have missed that. I have a million more questions. How does someone who has never played a drow start out? How does one who doesn't ...

I was playing around yesterday with color tags in VipMud, and having color turned on gameside and in my client. I didn't realize so many things are color-coded. In the lady's boutique in Waterdeep, for example, the cloths don't let you pick what color you want--they're already colored, so you pick t...

Hi Yemin, I find that if I keep colors turned on in VipMud, the client has, in the past, been prone to crashing quite a lot. I've kept it off for a long time now, which is frustrating because I would llike too turn itt back on. But the developer hasn't made changes to the clientt in some five years,...

I'll bug her to come over here and take a look!


Thanks!

I'm late! Two things, maybe? 1. How could I change Tiyari to show up with a T instead of t on the forums? (pet peeve, I know) :P 2. I didn't put a comma in Tiyari's adjectives because I didn't know if it was allowed. On other games it wasn't. I don't remember why I thought it wouldn't be here. I'd l...

I'm sad to find out that no one submitted to this contest! I found out today (Theia and I are RL roommates/housemates) that nothing was written and sent in. FYI: The reason no ascii art is allowed is because Theia is a blind player. Symbols and random letters are not decipherable by screen reader. I...

I am so sorry I missed this! A certain char of mine would have loved to be there

I use VipMud, made by GMAGames. Its trigger and alias system is virtually the same as zMud, which I used to use some ten years ago. Part of my reluctance to switch to MUSHclient is that I haven't the foggiest idea how to alias or trigger sounds or simple alerts clientside. As someone who loves color...

If this topic needs to be moved, I understand. I don't remember where I wrote the one from a few months back. Theia and I have come up with a list of things that would help in screen reader accessibility for blind/visually impaired players. I have written these out in hopes that admin will consider ...

When looking for a name, I go to baby name websites, and look up names from other countries. In the case of Tiyari, I made it up based on a name a friend had for another character. I rearranged it a bit, and added a couple letters. I often worry if my names sound "human" enough, or "e...

I like this idea, actually. Even if the max you could train in, say, gnome if you were in Waterdeep was inept, you could at least try to understand the gnomes around you. One time I took Tiyari into what I think was a Halfling village, only to discover she didn't know their language! Oops! So then I...

I'd like to know, somehow, what exactly tieflings are. I've only seen them on one other game, and they were evil little things, very dark. All these perspectives is giving me some good info. I appreciate it very much. Is it coded that the drow can't handle sunlight? Are they all, always, super dark-...
