Help needed

[Barf]

Ok, I am wanting to play around with programming a mud. What is the simplest mud codebase that will work with a macintosh (stuck with one until I can dual-boot windows 7)? I got Nakedmud, but can't figure out how to compile/run it. Any help is appreciated (especially help from the imms, lol).

[Galnor]

I dunno, never messed with anything besides CircleMUD, but that, at least, should be able to run on Mac. What are you using to compile?

[Barf]

Right now I am using Xcode to compile some basic c/c++ stuff. I am just starting to play around with programming, and python looks like its by far the simplest language. What does Circlemud use?

[Barf]

Let me clarify: I know how to compile, I just don't know what to actually compile on circlemud or nakedmud.

[Galnor]

circle is C. You just need to compile the files in the "src" directory.

[Barf]

Ok, thanks. Where did you find crossroads? My google searches aren't turning anything up. What language does circlemud use? I can't seem to find it on their website.

[Galnor]

CircleMUD uses C.

What crossroads?

[Barf]

crossroads is C.

I might just be dense :/

[Galnor]

Oh, wow. Now I understand why you were so confused.

I put a filter for 'C i r c l e' because I got annoyed by people saying C ircle of Light instead of Crossroads.

[Barf]

That makes so much sense now! Cool, I think I can do C.

[Fogel]

Cool, I think I can do C.

Segmentation fault

[Galnor]

Yeah just start off changing little things, and then post here when you are finally driven mad.

C.ircle of Light

[Nyoga]

I hate it when u die and get sent to the ci.rcle of dark. ugh. it's so annoying.

at least the circ.le of light is prettier.

Fuckas

download the TBAmud codebase and use that. in the files there are help folders about coding and when you get on the mud there are step by step lessons on how to script/build etc etc etc.

[Barf]

Ok, I might try that to get a start. Eventually I want to program my own code base completely in Lua, but that will be a few years.

[Galnor]

MUDs won't be around by then.

[Fogel]

MUDs won't be around by then.

You know what this means. KinMMO. We must do it.

[Nyoga]

I want my name to be a pretty color like Fogel

[Semper]

hah, I wish I knew some Lua :p :D

Mushclient (my client) is in lua.
