Short: Amylaar-LPMud 3.2.1 beta 140 (OS 2.0) Author: Lars Pensjö, Jörn Rennecke and others; ported by Lars Düning Architecture: m68k-amigaos Uploader Lars DÜning Type: game/role Replaces: LPMud-321@139* LPMud is a variant of MUD (Multi User Dungeon) - a text-based object-oriented simulation system, mostly used to realize multi-user adventures in a networked environment. In LPMud, all objects are written in a special C dialect which is compiled and interpreted at runtime, thus giving the greatest flexibility in the design of the simulated game world while achieving a sufficiently high execution speed. LPMud was originally written by Lars Pensjö (with numerous bugfixes and enhancements from people all over the world); Jörn 'Amylaar' Rennecke took over the further development as Lars 'resigned' from development after publishing version 3.1.2. The 3.1.2-Gamedriver was ported to Amiga by Erik van Roode, the next ports up to patchlevel 140 were done by Lars Düning in parallel to the development by Amylaar. This package contains all executables to run a LPMud with Amylaar's driver on an Amiga. Included in the bin/ are: adr321 : the driver for cross compat mode with euids, with multiport support compiled in. acdr321 : as adr321, but compiled for compat mode without euids. PlayMud : a program to access the running mud. The driver has been compiled for Amiga-OS 2.0 into 68000 code. It reserves 50K+25K memory at startup, uses the port number 8888, and has all special features enabled. The cross-compat mode allows the emulation of both native and compat mode, for die-hard-compat muds like TubMud use the compat-mode driver. For more details see the included config.h which was used for compilation. The additional files needed for the mudlib can be found in lib/. The files in the top directory give out some information about the driver and its internals (in general and about the compiled binaries) - they are not of vital need for a running mud. The package does not include a complete mudlib - you have to get one on your own (see README.Amiga). For information about installation and usage see README.Amiga and README.PlayMud . The sources for the gamedriver (including the Amiga specific ones) are available for anonymous ftp at least on: ftp.nightfall.org (134.2.170.99) : driver/, recent patches in amylaar/ ftp.cs.tu-berlin.de : pub/mud/lp/driver in the archive 'driver3.2.1@.tar.gz'. NOTE: LPMud 3.2.1 is still under development - both source and binary archives do not necessarily contain the latest patchlevel of the driver! System Requirements: 2 MB Ram at least Amiga-OS 2.0 Harddisk, or at least two floppies optionally a faster processor optionally AmiTCP-2.0 for true TCP/IP
