Hi jess.
this sort of thing is just what the list is for.
I don't know about soundpacks for clok, I know someone was working on one
but to begin with just try as is.
To use Vipmud download and install it. It is possible that it will begin
with system access or Nvda or whatever screen reader you prefer to use
automatically, but you can set what you want in the options menu under
speech.
To begin with, use the quick connect option, this will give you a listbox of
muds vipmud is preconfigured to connect to, though it doesn't include clok.
However connecting to clok is easy.
For any mud you need to first give a host name, and then a port to connect
too. So, to connect to clok tab to the host name box and input
clok.contrarium.net
and in the port box input 4000.
You can find out about all of this here:
http://clok.contrarium.net/index.php?title=Connection_Info
Indeed the clok website is a handy resource for info about the game.
once you've connected the prompts to create a new character and what to do
should be read automatically by your screen reader if vipmud is working
properly, though be sure to read the various help files in game to get an
idea of how to play and what to do.
Now, of course you don't want to be typing connection info into vipmud every
time, so you can create a character profile, you can just select this at
start with the arrows when you begin the program (it begins with an nexample
profile of bob on valhalla mud I believe).
to create a character profile go into the file menu and find the character
option, then tab to create. Type in the characters name into the box and
also a password, you can also check the box to have Vipmud enter name and
password immediately if you like so you don't need to keep typing them in.
Tab round to okay and there you are. Then when you start vipmud you'll see
the first item on the menu "your character name, clok contrarium.net" and
can just arrow to it and press enter.
hth.
All the best,
Dark.
