Re: Discworld Mud Aa, thanks for the reply! I figured it out yesterday. It was something like options output mapcity=off.So that means if you're in a city and looking or going to a room it doesn't show the map anymore.So now it is really really awesome! The only problem is that I have quite a lot of stuff to do regarding my studies, so quite an exercise in self discipline.

Re: Discworld Mud Hi!At first I will apologize for reviving the dead topic, but as the post is quite relevant to the previous posts I hope it is not a big problem.So, I really really like the minimap plugin, that makes travelling so much easier!But there's just one quite annoying thing. Every time I look at the room I see the map like this: |x|x| $-@-* and so on. I have read the minimap help and minimap commands, but I didn't get any clear answer for that. What else should I try?

Re: Discworld mud, does anyone play it? so, Discworld was my very first mud that I played in 2001. I go back to it now and again because I loved it so much.1. You don't need to have read the books. I didn't like the first Discworld book I read, and some yars later, I finally have gotten around ot trying a different one. It's like the icing on the cake in knowing how things fit together, ut you don't ned it.2. You can group with others and there is even a way to broadcast a group request.3. I love Quow's mushclient package. My next trick is to learn how to make a few sound triggers for when my shield drops.4. I play Marenna, Annalenne, and Kethri if you ever need some assistance. Fair warning, I'm not perfect. I'm a social player and that is one of the huge reasons I love the game so much.5. I'd start out in Ankh-morpork or the Counterweight Continent if I were you.6. There are languages to learn, books to buy, and so many other reasons to play.Good luck!

Re: Discworld mud, does anyone play it?
Re: Discworld mud, does anyone play it? It helps to have read the books, but is not necessary. The mud is a fairly significant adaptation of the written work.With regards to guilds, Wizards are good, but you will have problems navigating the library (directions are relative, not absolute). In general, though, that shouldn't be a problem, the wiki has directions to all the books, at least in the main library.I only tried witches and thieves. Thieves seemed really fun to play and can make a fair amount of money rather quickly. Witches are generally fairly well-regarded, socially, and their services are typically in high demand.The only guild I would avoid to start with is Assassin, because you at some point have to go enforced PK.

Re: Discworld Mud
Re: Discworld Mud Like Sirbadger I had the same issue. I did the newbie pumpkin village, found lots of quests and hideen stuff, practiced my skills then suddenly found myself in Ankh-Morpork. I didn't have as much trouble knowing where things were, but there were no quests, tasks, or anything to do. There was a "quests" command, but it gave a list so long and criptic it was of no use at all, and when I asked on the newbie channel people just told me "getting into the game is hard." and didn't offer any help. I was also very disappointed that when I ran into characters I knew from the books, I couldn't interact with tthem, much less get jobs to do. Really, I was hoping that a diskworld mud would let me get jobs from the city watch, deliver some post for moist vonlipwig, maybe go and have the librarian ask me to find him a rare book, but when I did find characters i knew from the books such as Corporal Knobbs, , they didn't interact with my character at all. It was a shame, i'd read the wiki and in game help and such, and there would be so much about stuff to do, then I'd go back to the game and just wind up wandering the streets like a beggar, and after doing this for a couple of hours I just plane gave up.I would have to find and install mushclient, or maybe uncouple the alteraeon plugins from mushZ, since usually I use Vipmud for muds, but really, simply the notes on the job market might help here, if I decide to give the game another try.

Re: Discworld Mud Actually I faced the same problem too when I downloaded it first. I then downloaded each plugin individually and installed them on a clean copy of mush client and it worked pretty well.

Re: Discworld Mud
Re: Discworld Mud Thanks for doing what I have been meaning to do but was too lazy to do it, LOL. Indeed the mud can be daunting to a newbie, what with the complexity of mechanics and the large areas. I would have given up on the first day if it weren't for his plugins. At times I feel like Things have been made too easy for us with those plugins, especially the mapper one. It is definitely worth checking out, for the great work that quow has put into this plugins if nothing else.I'm not playing very frequently these days, but in case if you ever felt like too much of a noob there, feel free to compare yourself to neodin to feel better about yourselves URL: https://forum.audiogames.net/post/528638/#p528638 -- Audiogames-reflector mailing list Audiogames-reflector@sabahattin-gucukoglu.com https://sabahattin-gucukoglu.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/audiogames-reflector

Re: discworld mud Hi all,I just want to quickly give my thoughts on this mud, and maybe get some advice. The newbie area was easy for me to get through, however the hints once you get to Ankh-Morpork could be more helpful. Particularly where you have to do something in one of the job centers concerning the forms or the lack of forms you're supposed to hand in to get a job. The main problem I'm having is that some of the NPC's keep steeling my items which makes it hard for me to get stuff done as a newbie. Any tips on how to prevent that would be greatly appreciated. As far as a soundpack, it would be a bit difficult. There are some things that could use sounds, but most of it you really need to look at the text in the descriptions to get somewhere. I give this mud a rating of 5 out of 10 in my book, but other people may rate higher or lower based on there experiences with it.

Re: discworld mud Hi Mike,First of all, the name is Quow, q u o w.Priests of all gods get the totem ritual for early protection, and the dust devil ritual for assistance in killing things. Later on, they get minor shield, and then major shield for even better protection.Priests of Hat, Fish, and Sek get more potent offensive rituals, such as unquiet spirit and creeping doom, but you don't need to become a priest of those gods, since anyone can learn to fight. Of course, since priests don't get any fighting primaries, it will cost you more xp, but it's doable.Let me know what the name of your other character is, or send me a tell/mudmail, and I'll help you get started.

Re: discworld mud @Rashid, thanks for the tips, any help is seriously appreciated. Info on gameplay through various classes is good stuff to know as I've only experienced a tiny portion of the life of a super newb thief. lolMy second char is going for priest as I enjoy the skills of healing myself and others. Hense all of my chars on Alter are clerics second class. with primary druid or necro. The fact that I have alter set up through mushZ. And I'm a complete novice working with mush client. I'm not sure how to proceed how to set up DW using this client. I assume I'd install a second version of mush client to work seperatly with discworld? correct?As far as plug ins, I'm bloody clueless. Where would I get other handy accessible plug ins to work with DW in mush that would make life a lil easier? Trying to answer my own question here, I'd finger this player and get a link to download his pack, sound right so far? As for now, I've turned to using Vipmud 2.0 as I can write sound triggers through that like a pro. But I even know, this vipmud thing can only be temporary. I'd really like to start using mush!Another discworld related question I had was. I enjoy melee combat, and would still like to be good at it, but being a priest, would or should I go with a god that's more combat orientated like Sak? Though, I didn't want to have to be so eveily aligned. lol The god of fluff was my original deity of choice.\I'd really appreciate any feedback y'all can give to help me along my way, with the least amount of frustration.

Re: discworld mud Some tips.Firstly, certain guilds are easier than others, and certain guilds are better than others. For example, the warriors guild, while very easy, is a complete bust once you hit the mid game as all you can do is fight, which is what everyone else can do; you have no marketable skills. The best guilds for newbies are probably thief, because you can make boatloads of money once you hit the mid game, and wizard, even though it takes a bit more time to grasp because you can get pretty powerful pretty fast (it's possible to be soloing areas with 4 days of play time that give 30 day warriors difficulty if you're an expert player who knows what they're doing, just to give you a sense). Priests and witches are pretty neat too, but I'd stear clear of assassins because they require you to go PK at a low level, which will realistically suck as a newbie.Finding things is one of the hardest things in game, although the wiki has a half finished text map of some of the cities on it's accessibility page for basic orientation. part of the disc experience though is going to be getting so hopelessly lost that you've got no idea where you are. 50 room long streets with many intersections are not uncommon.What might help are a set of plugins that were created by a discworld player named Quo which, while designed for sighted players are semi usable. they allow you to search for a particular shop/street ETC and generate a speedwalk to that place. you can find them by refering or fingering the player, it should be in there somewhere. Don't forget to add in the standard mush accessibility plug ins yourself.If you really get stuck on things to do, the wiki has complete solutions for all quests, all of which give you tuns of experience and some of which give you money. Each guild has a bunch of websites created to help you understand it's specifics, which you can find either on the guild page on the wiki or by asking around in game.If you start in Ankh-Morpork, you can get a talker by going two south, two east, and south of where you start out at the bar of the mended drum.Players tend to be very helpful, but it is worth noting that DW is one of those games where many people log in to idle and be social rather than to actively play a lot of the times, I can think of at least 10 players who are often logged in and actively chatting but probably haven't left the room they're in for literal years. It's one of those games where the newibie experience is very sucky if you're not the kind of person who makes friends quickly, because otherwise you end up wandering around confusedly grinding away with no idea what you're doing.Personally, I haven't played in years, but I've been debating creating a new character and seeing where things go, so if I see any confused newbies around I'll see what I can do.

Or, how to get there.

Re: Discworld MUD: Need some assistence! There are activities in Discworld too, check the "Edit" addition in my previous post, I linked them all there.The actual problem with those activities is, at least for me, whose orientation sucks even in real life, (always sucked in my sighted period too), that I run out of time limit set for some of the activities, due being unable to find my destination in the city on time, even when using that map-help tool for pathfinding, which is included in the accessability Wiki page.This however shouldn't be such a serious problem for You guys, or at least the most of You, who can, or have learned to find your way much better around in real life, and probably in games as well.Btw, the job-center, or job-market, whatever, is on God street, which is quite close to the south from the Mended Drum bar, so even I could find it relatively easily, unlike the King street, which I still keep searching for, in order to buy a pet for myself there.According to t hat accessable destination-finder map, it is supposed to be not too far from the center to the north, (I do hope that the actual center of that map is The Mended Drum, after all that's where all new players start in Ankh-Morpork), but even after many hours of searching, and locating/findingdozens of streets, still haven't managed to reach, or even to spot it so far!

Re: Discworld MUD: Need some assistence! Explore away.

Re: Discworld MUD: Need some assistence! Well I am glad I made you interested in Discworld again Dark, by using the screen-reader friendly settings, offered at the very start of the tutorial, orientation is the only major issue for me, especially in huge cities like Ankh-Morpork.What I like the most about that MUD so far, is its previously mentioned ever-changing world, where "life goes on", interesting things keep happening around you, even when you merely stand, or sit idle in the same room, and it's only up to you, wether you react to them, in which way, or just ignore them totally.This is making the game interesting not only while performing an activity, but even while randomly wandering around in a city.Furthermore, if we pay more thorough attention to room descriptions, along with thee objects which can be found in them, meaning especially those we spot lying on the ground, we can just "aquire", that is claim lots of, often pretty useful stuff, left behind by other player s, either due their carelessness, rush, or their death even.So it is often worth to look carefully around in rooms, a careful enough survey can pay out quite nicely, which also adds an additional motivation for players, especially vip gamers using screen-readers.As for the accessability Wiki-page about the MUD, quite strangely, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't, (due some updates or maintainence I presume), but its link to that certain TTS soundpack is of no use, since the only download link it contains, always results in a "404 error", totally regardless of the wiki-page functioning or not at that moment.Or maybe I have to be registered, and logged in in order to be allowed accessing it???

Re: Discworld MUD: Need some assistence!
Re: Discworld MUD: Need some assistence! Ah, glad the accessibility link is back, I tried yesterday and couldn't get to it through the wiki since I kept getting errors, so used google and got the same errors which wasn't good.Let me know if you get more into the game. It did strike me as having a lot of promise but again having no way to get into things and the community being actively unhelpful on where to actually do! anything in the game was pretty offputting, quite aside from the uninteractable npcs. Death is cool though, I do remember that especially the way he's actually written.With the good information on the accessibility wiki and the high standard of writing I did want to give the game a db page, but without actually being able to get anywhere or start any activities or really know what to do in the game I couldn't say much.As to speedwalks, if I remember rightly basically speedwalks in vip just auto paste a lot of directions as you walk, you create them and save them. to be honest I never actually use them myself, though I have used in built navigation commands in other games like aardwolf and avalon.I'll say personally I didn't specifically have problems finding my way around ankh morpork since between the explanation on the wiki and the fact that all the rooms with streets are named so you can know what street goes off where, I found I could always know where I was provided I remembered where I'd been, then again, since I couldn't find anything to do, I equally couldn't find anywhere I needed to go, so it is entirely possible the situation might become more difficult had I actually had to find! anything in the city .

After I logged in next time, 36 hours later, and got brought back to life, all my equipment and money was normally lost, so I just thought of a funny thing: I shall just sit down to the stairs of the starting bar, and start begging, since I did need the cash to buy food urgently, in order to avoid starvation until I find the job-center, and finally start working "for a living"..Normally, I didn't even hope it will work...but 1st, I could indeed sit down to the stairs, (without actually listening the room description), and I could indeed use the "beg" command, adding such a convincing plea to it, that in only 15 minutes of time, I did get some cash even from 2 players passing by!These examples also demo nstrate, how large number of active players, resulting in frequent IC interactions, can often make an online-game much more fun to play.

Re: Discworld MUD: Need some assistence! Well, the mentioned link is working just fine for me, and has hopefully provided me with enough important informations, to give the MUD an another try, so thanks a lot!However, I would still be greatful for some instructions, or an explanation about how the "speedwalk" command works in VIP client v2, and an eventual link to a soundpack for Discworld MUD as well!Edit:True, the MUD definitely has its downsides, like the not too helpful community, and the so called "steep learning curve", (especially for us blind players), but I still starting to like it, mostly due its wide limit of imagination, which features many strange, original, often totally unexpected commands and activities, like in following examples:1, I died, mostly due my own foolishness, and started wandering around Ankh-Morpork city as a ghost.Just out of sheer fun, (while being sure such a command will by no means work), I tried out haunting players I ran into: And y ou know what?

Re: Discworld MUD: Need some assistence!
Re: Discworld MUD: Need some assistence! Well as far as directions go, the good news is the diskworld mud wiki used to have a very good set of accessible text directions which let you know the layout of Ankh Morpork and other the major cities. The bad news is when I go to https://dwwiki.mooo.com/wiki/Accessibility where it used to be, I get "this page cannot be displayed" which is obviously not so helpful.As for where to go, find jobs, activities to do etc, to be honest that was why I gave up with the game. The tutorial was great, then when I got to ankh morpork I found myself wandering around with literally nothing to do accept slay random wild life and scavenge the streets. I asksed other players and all they said was "yes it's hard as a newbie" I tried the quests command but the list it gave was so general it was of no use at all, especially since I liked the look of crafting and other activities in t he game. I was also disappointed with npcs in the game. I have read literally all the diskworld books, many several times (especially because there was a point that they were some of the only fantasy the Rnib audio library here in the Uk had). I loved the idea of being able to wander around diskworld and see some of my favourite characters, however what I got was just plane disappointing, since it seemed all the npcs, even colourful ones like corporal knobs or moist von lipwig were impossible to interact with. I couldn't talk to them, do quests for them, join them in activities etc.All in all I can say I was not impressed with diskworld mud over all. A lot of promise, nothing delivered, and players who, while not exactly rude were almost categorically unhelpful.

Re: DiscWorld mud help
Re: DiscWorld mud help There are text directions for getting around Ankh-morpork and I believe some of the other cities, check the above link, however direction in playing is more the problem as I said.

Re: DiscWorld mud help I tried this one a while back, and it looked like fun. But I didnt play for long, because I couldnt find anything! If there were text directions somewhere, Id give it another go. I really wanted to play, because I love the idea of Muds based on books.

Re: DiscWorld mud help
Re: DiscWorld mud help With the sad recent news about Sir Terrys meeting with the reaperman, I thought I ought to investigate this one, just because its always been long running and is a game that has always had notes on its vi access despite some very huge areas, and I do want to investigate some more muds for the db sinse thus far we dont really have many, although several do have very good customizations for Vi players.I did find some handy resources on their wiki although thus far Ive not experienced much as Ive only just finished the newbie area (I took the time to get the most out of it), Im not even sure which class I want, witch looks interesting in terms of abilities and activities though apparently levelling combat as a witch is harder.So, does anyone else play discworld? the only thing that is a tad annoying at the moment is the need to type hole words and get pr etty exact strings. So when I was trying to find a shortsword in a shop, I couldnt type list short or list sword. On the plus side, the writing and atmosphere is great, even in the newbie village, and Im highly impresse at the amount of interactable objects, for example in the first room there is a cot, and I couldnt just examine the cot and lie on it, but examine the blanket and the pillow as well. So it seems the descriptive part has been very well done. whether Ill end up getting lost in Ankh-morpork well see .Edit: okay well I dont actually think ankh-morpork is too bad, sinse each room has an individual description and the streets are all named, however Im becoming very frustrated with the games lack of direction. The quests command just gives you a truly insane! num ber of alternatives and doesnt tell you where things are or what level they are, just bangs them off in alphabetical order, and when I asked people directed me to the website, which is fine but I dont want to start a new game with spoilers. I keep running into memorable discworld characters like coffin henry, post master Grot and Mr. Tulip, however they seem to all be window dressing, theres nothing I can do! with them. This game really! needs a quest list command and some directions, hell Ive barely found anything to fight sinse Im in ankh-morpork and kill random npcs is aparently frowned upon (Ive fought a rat and a crow but thats it). I must admit Im quite disappointed, I was expecting a game where commander vimes would give me missions cleaning up his city or the patrician would have tasks to do with an edge, but all I find is a beautifully described environment with very little to interact with, this game should be r enamed discworld for tourists .

Re: DiscWorld mud help
Re: DiscWorld mud help Hi Brad. Firstly, Ive not actually played discworld mud yet, but by a quirk of fate I was reading about it the other night, and now with the sad news about Sir Terry Pratchett Im thinking Ill give it a go. My rummaging turned up This page on the wiki which has links to textual descriptions of maps, which were actually pretty detailed, albeit they show the general zones and places of interest not specific places to go. hth, as I said Ive yet to check this mud out myself, but its been something Ive been meaning to do for some time sinse people do tell me discworld is one of the best muds for access albeit that the areas are (like those in materiamagica), pretty dam humungus!
