pluss mush z has some things like the capture mud output by sean
randel which are sadly no longer round at all.
Yeah mush-z is good.
Now if only more muds would be added to the engine maybe extra packs and such.
yes its 400mb probably per mud but heck for a full featured adventure
game scripted to a mud that really does rock.

Hi.
The mushZ soundpack is not the same as the mushZ program, it's got
it's own download, program shortcuts and will configure itself.
Go to http://www.mush-z.com/ and download the main folder for the
soundpack (it's the one that says (if you don't have mushZ installed go here).
When you've downloaded it, it will install like any other program
and you should be able to run it from the start menue, with the
"play alteraeon" item, (though you probably want to use the check
for updates" option first to make sure you've got all the latest changes.
Most screen readers should auto detect, though sapi requires a
little more tinkering (let me know if you want to run mushZ with sapi).
Incoming text will be automatically spoken, and you can use the
various shortcut keys (see the readme for details), to check stuff
like mana, xp, hitpoints, what spells affect you etc.
Typing "config" lets you change a few options to do with automatic
actions in the game.
As regardinds playing, well there are lots of differences and
convenineces the mushZ pack has, for instance you have sounds in
combat and music to indicate your hp status (though you can also
have this spoken if you like), and keys to perform common actions.
The major display difference I noticed myself and something which
took a little getting used to is not having the separate output
window for reading previous text, though you can hit ctrl alt o
which opens a plane text log of all text sent by the mud to you, so
that can be a reference if you missed something, (though i also just
use supernover's virtual curser as well).
In general as I said, mush as I rate vipmud most of the time, the
mushZ pack is more like a separate game than actually playing a mud,
and in some ways it's better to treat it as such, though the
advantages are so huge it's absolutely worth doing and adds
massively to the experience you'd get just playing alter in conventional text.
hth.
All the best,
Dark.
