Dark Legacy MUD Forum

I use Mush, if you need any help or have questions, let me know. Would love to help. =)

I've used some different clients too, from SimpleMU to PortalGT, and i usually will help anyone who needs help with either of them.

Couple Problems with Mushclient: So, if you can get a better client without paying, go for it.

1. Alias doesn't recognize the slash \ . Only aggrivating when you want to use guild badges or are allowed to rank people in the guild and want to create aliases.

2. Once you create various alts - unless you want a hundred or more triggers all on one file, you'll need to create a world for each character which delays in logging off and on as quickly as others do.

I use MUSH, and always have. But there are better clients out there.

i used mushclient but i just switched to portal, i just have a question:

in mush you could send certain lines to a text file, e.g. i would send all the oocs to a text file so that if i was doing anything really spammy i could flip to the text file and see what people were saying

but how do i do that on portal? (i haven't gotten fully used to it yet)

thanks!

You mean like a channel monitor, i have a tell monitor set up, send me a pm or a tell on DL and i can help you make one.. Kind of hard to show you without going step by step with you.

But... If you're feeling brave i'll just post the steps here:

1) create a new event that triggers off of * tells you '* (you can substitute any channel you want for tell).
2) set the first variable (the first *) to @AA (or any variable you want...) and the second to @BB (or any variable you want...)
3) For the triggers actions have it do ;process @TELL=~@AA~@BB
4) Click Screens on top menu, and select Tell Monitor
5) Feel free to mess around with the tell monitor options . Also if you want to make it on ooc or something there is a special chat monitor... @CHAT=<command>~<chat line>~<who chatted>~<message>
ex. @CHAT=ot~Guild Talk~@AA~@BB Where @AA is the person, and @BB the message.
6) The Chat monitor holds up to 1000 characters for a message, where as the tell monitor is less...
7) If i confused you just get a hold of me, and i'll walk you through it better.

Theres also a way to send lines to a file, but its more complicated i think.

<3 zmud!

#trigger {* tells you '*'} {#CAPTURE Channels}

THANKYOU DUNA!!!!!

i got that chat monitor going, it's working nicely now

thanks again everyone!

Lol my pleasure, just get a hold of me if you need anything else Portal GT related.

whooooot for zmud, as well...

i perfer PortalGT to zmud

I can't stand PortalGT...it's basically a dumbed down version of zMUD that doesn't have as many features (unless they added many since I last used it).

i agree with quinster on this one portal GT doesnt update the client enough

but its easyer for me to use

I've been able to do anything i've wanted on Portal GT ( including anything that you can do in Zmud). I think portal GT is a little bit more limited, trigger wise, but it's still possible to make complex triggers like those used on zMud Also on the plus side its a lot more user friendly on other features. Plus portal gt is free, and it does update .

i can 100% guarentee that portal gt cannot do my triggers

Try me , i can make them if i really wanted.

Bleh stupid double post.

Also, not everybody needs ridiculous botting capabilities.
