Let me know, I can assist with about 1000 rooms of new content. Thats about 8 areas that are unique. I can assist with Coding new spells and skills or Class creation. Thanks, Let the old days come back to us. [/quote] I have been tinkering with my mud off and on for the last 20 years. If you are bored and want to contribute some effort to creating entirely new classes, shoot me an email and I will give you acces https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/any-smaug-muds-running-4922/&p=24226#p24226 Mon, 11 Nov 2024 20:28:18 CST SmaugFUSS nobody@example.com (eldhamud) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/any-smaug-muds-running-4922/&p=24217#p24217 Came back to check if any New Smaug muds are being created.

Show these new age people what this game was all about. I feel like we got swept under the rug of life and it doesn't give us any justice. Graphics aren't everything in gaming. https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/any-smaug-muds-running-4922/&p=24175#p24175 Sat, 1 Jun 2024 13:47:54 CDT SmaugFUSS nobody@example.com (Zedethar) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/any-smaug-muds-running-4922/&p=24079#p24079 Well took about 5 years off from mudding. Back with Classic 6Dragons. An old staff member started asking me questions about fixing his version of the game. It got me excited to come back again. Classic 6Dragons one of few smaug muds with all original world. Stop by and make fun of me for still doing this.

I also like class/spell design but I am afraid that is my weakest skill towards operating a mud. I cannot for the life figure out how to add multiclass system. I can somewhat implement classes, spells but I believe the spells aren't fine-tuned to perfection as they should be! I'm glad people are out there trying to work on muds today. I believe they still hold some appreciation towards the entire age of MMO gaming.

I'll create a separate post on this topic. https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/any-smaug-muds-running-4922/&p=24052#p24052 Wed, 20 Apr 2022 06:33:05 CDT SmaugFUSS nobody@example.com (Osien) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/any-smaug-muds-running-4922/&p=24049#p24049 [quote=GatewaySysop] I've made countless changes along those lines, and I find it immensely fulfilling when I find ways to add more depth and unexpected nuance to my little world. I find that far too often, this aspect of world building gets overlooked in favor of flash and feature stacking, quantity over quality. It's great if someone's got 25 classes, 30 races and hundreds of spells and 90 areas, ... [/quote] How not to share your opinion: I absolutely agree.

It did lead to a slew of bug fixing in the codebase though. Weird errors we didn't even remember being problems back in the day. Funny how that seems to work. https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/any-smaug-muds-running-4922/&p=24048#p24048 Sun, 27 Feb 2022 16:57:09 CST SmaugFUSS nobody@example.com (Samson) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/any-smaug-muds-running-4922/&p=24047#p24047 I'm still running mine, off and on, mostly for stability testing. Longest I had it up was around 130 days or something without a reboot, so that was pretty decent. Only had to take it down because I made code updates, but that should give you an idea how off-and-on sometimes goes. Life gets in the way! :grinning: I do like tinkering with area building, but I've had more fun tweaking the "little things" that make the MUD feel more immersive, at least for me as a player-turned-developer.

I launch it from time to time to tinker. But most of the time, my college coursework, and my work as a java developer eat up most of my time, and what free time I do end up with is not usually dedicated to any one thing anymore. https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/any-smaug-muds-running-4922/&p=24046#p24046 Sun, 6 Feb 2022 17:35:03 CST SmaugFUSS nobody@example.com (InfiniteAxis)
