Hi Dark, Gave Vip mud a go last night, it seemed nice and easy to navigate around , so for ease of use while I'm learning muds I'll definitely stick with this. I've wanted to try Alteraeon for a while now so might start out on that just to get me used to it. I did try the squaresoft mud yesterday and shortly after starting the game it advised if you are blind to type blind to make the game work better for blind people. So I turned on that setting, not playing muds before though I have absolutely no idea what the setting actually did though lol. Interesting about there being a diskworld mud , as I love all the pratchett books, actually just reading the last one he wrote the shepherds crown at the moment, although I got it for Christmas but have been putting off reading it knowing it will be the last diskworld novel. But definitely once I'm a little more experienced with muds I'll have to try the diskworld one

As I remember this one doesn't have any adaptations for blind players like low spam modes, also it's not a case of specific muds using specific clients (with the exception of the alteraeon pack), it's more a case of finding a client you want to use for mudding and using that for any mud you want to play. As I recall quests were rather difficult sinse they were none specific and people I've heard got irritated with finding stuff, which is not to say don't play it, that's just what I've heard. Likewise most muds are relatively playable even without specific adaptations, though attles might be difficult if the text scrolls fast unless you have your screen reader set to read on uba speed, still feel free to give it a try. For mudding generally gh I'd probably recommend one of the more blind friendly muds to get started with. alteraeon is exceptional, but has it's own custom mushZ sound client which makes it effectively an audiogame rather than a mud, so unless you play alteraeon with a standard mud client you don't get a good intro. There are however several more with good adaptations, Aardwolf, discworld (though I could never get into that game), six dragons, clok etc, check the audiogames.net database under muds or check whitestick.co.uk, also the instructions for vipmud have some good suggestions. Alternatively, just dive in with squaresoft mud and see where it goes. hth. Dark. All the best, Dark. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Paul Lemm" <[email protected]> To: "'Gamers Discussion list'" <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, March 14, 2016 10:27 PM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] final fantasy style Mud > Hi Tobias , > > Yep, I've always wanted to give muds a try , but just never seem to have > the > time spare to get started, but always loved the final fantasy games, so > think I'll need to find some time so I can give this one a go.
