HI HI :oP I need help with making an MUD (Multi_User_Dungeon AD&D type)game full of ASCII arts, about 8 years ago me and (now my ex-)wife started this game, it was just basicly text back then (worded), then about 5 years when I started arting it,- we closed the game and soon devorced, now I restarted the game and want to mix ASCII arts with the room descriptions and start working on finishing what I had in mind and started, this opens the door to the artist for almost unlimeted ideas of creations to fit the games themes. I my self am an ASCII artist as well and have many arts made on this game, but there is so much to do that it would take me forever to compleat this game world by my self. the game is free to all who wish to play it (except for me sence I have to pay for the server space to run it) so therefor I can pay nothing to no-one for any work done and I gain nothing out of it but the same reasons that I am offering you,, it has to be all donated out of the kindness of your heart and for the enjoyment of making it and to watch others enjoy the game and the arts therein, but of course your name will be forever credited to and with your arts. I am the only one working on this game at this time, so if you do come and check it out I may not be there for I work 8+ hours a day and have 6 children and a loving lady to contend with and share the net with, so you can imagine I at most only get a couple hours a day on the net anymore (more on my weekends of Mondays and tuesdays), but I hope to see a few of you there and to see if you like many of my arts (not all are mine but most are). but I can and would train any interested on how to work on the game while I am not there, it would take time, but anything worth while does. if interested my emails is:- Tim...@yahoo.com and/or just come and inter the game and have fun and check in now and then and sooner or later I will be on and we can chat. to play the game:- you will need this telnet client or the like to enter and enjoy the game, the downloads are small. If you like you can use your own built in telnet that comes with most windows/linex computer systems, just nothing would be in color that way. Or This is an older but "free" version of Zmud. http://forums.zuggsoft.com/index.php?page=4&action=file&file_id=18 Or you can find more info about Zmud here, including an 30 day trial for the paid version. https://www.zuggsoft.com/zmud/zmudinfo.htm Or There are many telnet clients and you can just use whats right for you. once you have the telnet client or Zmud you will need to goto this addy (the telnet client will tell you how and where to add this addy.) ===================== /Addy:-/ lankhmar.mudmagic.com Port: 4000 ===================== My name on the game is:- Darkstar, the same Darkstar you will find on this listing:- http://www.ascii-art.de/ascii/uvw/who_is_who.txt ===================== The MUD is called Aarabela, But I am remaking the game into Lankhmar and the world of Nehwon based on the Novels of Fritz Leiber. ===================== Hope to see some of you take intrest, it would be a test of your skills and imagenations and its a fun thing to take intrest in and do. =====================
