Has anyone ever played with this with a fantasy-oriented, smaug-derived codebase? I have seen this on some diku RPIs and SWFOTEFUSS and would love to do this with AFKmud (meaning, having simple short descriptions for characters instead of their names in-room, so that others have to learn who everyone is instead of having to rp that that they can't see their names ).
I had a copy of a mud magazine that had some info on how to do this, I will have to see if I can find that...

Zarius has an introduction snippet on his website at http://www.mindcloud.com/ which is probably what you want. It's in his download section. Dig a bit and you'll find it. He just revamped the site apparently

Wicked old BUMP here, but mindcloud website no-more, well, it exists, but not in the way it used to. I was wondering if someone has this old snippet or Erwin Andreasens snippet. Both I cannot seem to find anymore, only references to them.

patriot very well might have it lol, could email him or something and ask


you could check the 6dragons code release as well for it.

I had it installed at one point, but found it would cause some issues with PERS.

I didn't like it overall, but Role Players like it.

Hmm... I was hoping to find the snippet. but if I have to tear apart a codebase.. So be it!

And yeah, I am building a RP heavy mud. So this is key to part of its success I hope.

Thanks all!
