It even managed to load my 10 year old MUX 1.5 flatfile (remember, 1.5 became TinyMUSH 3). As far as mushcode "portability" goes, [b]time[/b] is more important than the native codebase. The older the code, the more trouble you'll have getting it to work in [b]any[/b] of the current versions. But, only because you're a "newb". In a short while, you'll get it sorted and know exactly what needs to be http://www.mudbytes.net/index.php?a=topic&t=731&p=14435#p14435 Mon, 27 Oct 2008 19:29:12 PDT Tiny nobody@example.com (Argent) http://www.mudbytes.net/index.php?a=topic&t=731&p=14427#p14427 [quote=Argent]My first choices right now are RhostMUSH and PennMUSH, I am leaning towards the latter because there seems to be a lot more pre-existing softcode that is specifically designed for and tested in that code base, though I freely admit my ignorance when it comes to knowing their virtues beyond that. If you (or anyone) has any advice, I'd love to hear it as I have a severe case of 'newb' right now. :tongue:[/quote] It's hard to express how close all the various MUSH codebases are http://www.mudbytes.net/index.php?a=topic&t=731&p=14427#p14427 Mon, 27 Oct 2008 09:03:21 PDT Tiny nobody@example.com (Sandi) http://www.mudbytes.net/index.php?a=topic&t=731&p=14398#p14398 Sure, we're still out there, most of the Tiny community is focused around their respective codebase's websites rather than here. Penn has a great community site, as does MUX (mailing lists), and I think TinyMUSH does as well. Rhost is a bit more close-circled, most of them hang out on their test game. http://www.mudbytes.net/index.php?a=topic&t=731&p=14398#p14398 Sun, 26 Oct 2008 13:42:29 PDT Tiny nobody@example.com (Kelvin) http://www.mudbytes.net/index.php?a=topic&t=731&p=14395#p14395 [quote=Sandi] MUSH's strong point is a built in scripting language that is both newbie friendly and very powerful. [/quote] Hi, Well, I hope you are right about MUSH softcoding as I am taking the plunge this week from long-time player to actual admin/softcoder for my first MUSH project. One of the things that I've already learned in browsing the online lectures and tutorials for softcoding and looking at the various sites is that people in the MU* community seem to be unstintingly http://www.mudbytes.net/index.php?a=topic&t=731&p=14395#p14395 Sun, 26 Oct 2008 01:21:57 PDT Tiny nobody@example.com (Argent) http://www.mudbytes.net/index.php?a=topic&t=731&p=10179#p10179 Well, briefly, TinyMUSH is a derivative from TinyMUD, with the addition of a (then) very primitive script-like language. Its name, MUSH, stands for Multi-User Shared Hallucination. Original code written by Larry Foard. Introduced JUMP_OK like TinyMUCK, and has recycling, called @destroy or @recycle. Also introduced the concept of PUPPETs, and other objects that can listen. In later versions the script language was extended greatly, adding math routines, many database modifying commands, and http://www.mudbytes.net/index.php?a=topic&t=731&p=10179#p10179 Mon, 26 May 2008 20:15:59 PDT Tiny nobody@example.com (Sandi) http://www.mudbytes.net/index.php?a=topic&t=731&p=10157#p10157 Well, I wouldn't exactly know where to start. The most similar thing I know well is LPMUD (which, IIRC [b]was[/b] inspired at least by Tiny). Maybe you could submit an article or two to the articles section giving an introduction and overview of TinyMUD? http://www.mudbytes.net/index.php?a=topic&t=731&p=10157#p10157 Mon, 26 May 2008 07:55:32 PDT Tiny nobody@example.com (exeter) http://www.mudbytes.net/index.php?a=topic&t=731&p=10064#p10064 Two years and no action? My goodness. Well, if anyone drops by and wants to talk Tiny, I usually check in several times a week. http://www.mudbytes.net/index.php?a=topic&t=731&p=10064#p10064 Sun, 18 May 2008 12:05:22 PDT Tiny nobody@example.com (Sandi)
