I fixed it. I downloaded your source files from Github and removed the line from mudmonitors.bas that read "nRet = DwmGetWindowAttribute(F.hwnd, DWMWA_EXTENDED_FRAME_BOUNDS, rcFrame, Len(rcWindow))" Seems to be working okay now. Would be nice if there was a way to make it it check to see if the OS ...

Did we ever find a working download for Synterm? I haven't been able to find any working links online.

Filenames:
syn32t61.zip/exe (telnet version)
syn32m60.zip/exe (modem version)

Thanks.

Thanks.

Hi:

Does anyone know where I can find a comprehensive in-game command list? Was there a command reference doc included with the game files?

The in-game help menus are okay but tedious. I would rather have something in documentation form or extracted from the binaries.

Thanks.

With MME you don't get the full textblock displayed just the outcomes for it. Spells I can't hide or items, but those textblocks are special to me.

Got it. Thanks for clarifying.

It’s the simple idea that someone can’t just rip someone else’s hard work and import it into their own realm. Yea, the main details are there if someone had the motivation to recreate them, and ideally people would release stuff to the community for consumption eventually, but on their own terms ...

BearFather/Syntax:

Out of curiosity, what mud data is considered secret or proprietary to a mud instance/BBS? Much of the game data is already released with MME.

For custom games like MudRev, game messages/strings for custom spell effects and statuses would be a huge convenience in a distributed ...

Makes sense. Thanks for the info, Syntax.

I personally don't have any clue what actually goes into the MME. That would be a question for Syntax. But I assume the messages db is what you want the most.

One suggestion could be to build your own export tool that would go over the dats and pull the info you need like mob and messages

I would say MME is the best way, cause giving out dats is not something I would do. There is trade secrets in there.

Thanks.

Is it possible to export the messages/responses (as shown in MegaMUD) to an MME database? Looking at all the data that is available and used in MegaMUD, I think that's ...
