Aardwolf MUD clients – New version of Mushclient in test

It’s been a long time since the Aardwolf Mushclient package was updated and we now have a new version available for test. This version makes extensive use of Miniwindows and GMCP. It also uses the GMCP mapper and the map is pre-loaded with the continents and a bunch of lower level areas. The miniwindows and the main window can all be dragged around and resized as necessary to suit your screen size and layout preferences.

This version does not have an installer program, it is just a zip file that you can unzip to any directory and run from there. You can also unzip it to a flash drive. Unlike the previous version, it will not mess with any existing version of Mushclient on your computer.

We are currently looking for people to download and try this version out before making it official, particularly if you are using the older version of the Aardwolf Mushclient package. We will be updating the documentation on the website shortly, but using it is pretty easy, particularly if you read the banner displayed when first starting the client.

Please post any issues or questions to the tech board. If you are trying the client and have nothing to report, please post anyway just so we know it’s getting looked at.

The test client can be downloaded from:

Many people have contributed to the code in these plugins over the last couple of years including Bast, Swalec, Madcatz, Blainer and no doubt lots of other names we’re forgetting.

Special thanks also to Fiendish for putting all this together and making it all work in a logical and consistent way, plus making many enhancements of his own. Special thanks also to Nick Gammon of course, both for writing Mushclient in the first place and for the many tweaks he made to help this all work.
