Mudlet is by far the most popular client, and even its "Outdated" 2.1 version (which is still in very, very heavy use I think) is still far newer than most other clients people use. It's so 2006ĮDIT: as an aside, I wonder how people who use other clients are affected. Sure, hopefully Math will post his files, and I (probably) still have some relatively recent ones lying about somewhere, but I don't want to go back to operating like that - "oh, someone posted their map awhile back, it still works pretty good most places". It might not feel like a big deal this second, but it gets pretty sucky to not just have the latest map right from the game's server, especially since so much effort has gone into making those maps solid and up to date.
If they do, it means there will be nice clean new maps for us all day every day again (at least on 3.0 delta). But the Mudlet guys still have to decide it's worth fixing. A dude found the problem in the backend of the mapper, and it seems pretty straightforward (even to me).
IF STATEMENTS MUDLET DOWNLOAD
I just want to figure out why I am suddenly unable to download a fresh one on any comp. I wish I'd been able to get the Aetolian admin to be nearly as responsive about fixing clearly broken map areas (work just fine with in game map, but downloaded map doesn't work). It is almost like they CAN'T operate in a narrative way.Īnyway, I appreciate it, but the game map is honestly great so long as people like Ultrix push push push them to fix areas that are actually mapped, but broken in some way (I wonder how many years people stumbled around Byley plains, for example). At the same time, coders weirdly miss very, very basic statements in narrative, and I wonder if this is part of the problem. But as much as I love Vadi (and I knew Vadi), he's a typical coder who writes typical coder instructions, and I end up going "wtf, this doesn't work, and I've spent 3 hours trying to figure out and I have no idea wtf he is saying". Or figure out all sorts of things that have instructions that have to be read carefully and possibly need to be thought through as well. I am SUPER careful about following instructions, and making sure I understood them correctly, and in real life people always bug me to help them with their security system where it turns out they installed all of the sensors backwards because they didn't read carefully, or to help put up a shed with "okay" but less than great instructions (and all of the pieces MUST be carefully put together in a certain order to be absolutely correct).
There is just something about the way that coders write instructions.
IF STATEMENTS MUDLET MANUAL
I have never been able to get the manual mapper to work for me. So in short, I could probably dig up some older dbt files and xml files and I bet I could have some kind of map again, but I can't update. In 3.0, it knows it has an xml file, but when it prompts me to "update" it, nothing happens when I try to remove the reminder (not even the Lua error). Now, Mudlet saves the same content in map.xml as above, but doesn't even seem to recognize that I have a map.xml file at all in 2.1 - so it prompts me to download the map every time. There are slight differences in what happens, but no better outcome. So then, I restored my system to get rid of the updates, and essentially did all of the same things. As well, Mudlet seems unable to create the "map" folder which is where all of the dbt files are stored (I don't know the exact relationship between the xml and dbt files, other than that dbt maybe does something something databasey to the xml files, maybe.).Īs well, when I hit Mudlet's pesky "click here to remove the reminder" for updating maps, I got this: This lack of an ability to manually manipulate files seems to be a gripe on mudlet forums, but it is what it is. You can certainly replace the map.xml file, but Mudlet doesn't seem to see it when you do. I tried manually replacing the xml file with the correct file from here: īut I don't think the Mudlet works that way. Here is what I see in the map.xml file that downloads when I hit the "Map" icon and the system downloads the map:
IF STATEMENTS MUDLET WINDOWS 8
There is also a compatibility feature for Windows if you right click on the program you want to open, and I tried running both versions in Windows 8 mode. GMCP was enabled in both cases, with a restart, and I also updated mudlet mapper.
3.0 installs a bunch of stuff in a program files folder, and seems to do a fine job of deleting those with its uninstall feature (but I do manually clean out everything else). config folder, the Mudlet folder in AppData/Local, and the mudlet-data file that is created at in the User's folder. I tried both 2.1 and 3.0, and manually deleted all extra files, including the.
Mudlet had been working fine on Windows 10, until I installed the most recent updates - even with clean mudlet installs.
