Modifications have been done to certain spells and items to offset issues with patches, drops, etc. Please see MOD's and upgrades.

In addition, you may login to the forums section of ecctechonline.net for any additional updates. I typically post updates there first, and then they make their way here. I frequently change LOGON messages and SENDALL messages to users informing them of updates or changes.

We have a very interactive user base, who maintain contact with me and let me know if anything is out of the ordinary. Again please reference MODS/UPDATES/BUGS for additional information.

Please feel free to shoot me a message if you have any additional questions, comments, or concerns!

Thanks!

We now have a MUDBOT seeing as some users were abusing certain priv. You still have sys goto's and sys maps.

You may now ask mudbot the following

@evil (adds 100 evil points)
@neutral (makes you neutral)
@good (makes you good)
@gjr (gives you a Gold Jeweled Ring)
@lindwurm (gives you a lindwurm bracelet)
@retrain (offers you a stat retrain)
@loanmoney (loans you 1 titanium Oracle (runic) ~ Bot has 10 runic per day, please share...
@golden idol (gives you a golden idol)
@greasy leather bracelet (gives you greasy leather bracelet)
@amber talisman (gives you talisman)
@magma amulet (gives you magma amulet)
@hydra key (gives you hydra key)
@abyssal key (gives you abyssal key)

I have looked into the @home, etc commands but havent figured out exactly how they are to work yet.

Please let me know if you can think of any other useful items, commands that I should implement.

Thanks!

Just a quick update. Things seem to be going smoothly and our user base seems to be relatively solid. A good majority of our user base has been exploring the new areas and it seems that everyone is quite satisfied with them. I modify a few things on a daily basis, but nothing worthy of a post. (Minor regen fixes / description fixes, etc) Those are the problems that you have with patches like these, and until you get feedback its hard to make corrections.

Keep the comments, suggestions, and ideas coming. I greatly appreciate them.

As most of you know, the only items that havent been put in the system yet are the chainmail. This will be taken care of this weekend, as well as the completion of the Sapphire, and the Ruby mines, which are going to offer excellent scripting opportunities down the road for levl 90+

Quite a few more commands have been added to the Mudbot for your assistance. Just type '/@commands1, @commands2, @commands3, or @commands4 (in a whisper)' for a list of commands he can do for you. Let me know if you see anything else you would like added.

Thanks !

Please see our post in regards to the Lag the system has been experiencing over the past 30 days or so. I have cleared it up the best that I could, but unfortunlately it has been an issue for quite some time.

I apologize for not keeping up with posts as much as late, but working 2 jobs and school can be tough when it comes to trying to release 500-1000 debugged patches every week or so.

Thanks!

Quote from: blahblahblah on November 09, 2009, 02:46:47 PMprobably because you dont respond to emails or are ever at keys, ive been on ur board a week now asking a simple question left u 3 emails and no response yet.. the stockmud you say was reset, the top player had 3 million experience yet cob had belt kilt somehow, questors are missing, etc.. who the hell wants to play on a stockmud that just reset that u never did a floor sweep on so who the hell knows where half the limiteds are.. lol.. i mean come on seriously and u wonder why u cant get any members

Ive got 40 accounts on my bbs, so Im not concerned about members. ~ Secondly, my hexed mud is the version that I promote. Stock mud was hardly used even before the reset. I am surprised to find people playing, (but none the less am glad that they are) ~ My apologies for not answering your emails. (if you are YoYo, I had never received any emails until just today.) ~ The only emails I have had were new user registrations.

I do work a full time job, go to school, and am in the Military ~ So; please excuse my tardiness in getting back to your message; I hope it wasnt too pressing.

To answer your question. ~ I am not sure what has happened to the items, thanks for assuming that the floors werent swept... The game has only went through two cycles; the last time, nothing serious had been killed. I did a full reset, made sure everything was swept, and reset. ~ I found the last time that there is always someone that beats you to a mon kill and you just dont know about it. If ~ for some reason that monster was not reset properly, I apologize. ~ I can find items for you, many of them are in death piles at various places... IM willing to check for them in Nightmare or sys lims if there is something specifically you are looking for..

If you dont like playing on my board, then dont. ~ But considering that we have never spoken before, I think that this email basically trashing my bbs is a little bit rediculous. If there are issues, I will try my best to remedy them. ~ I am hosting 3 versions of MUD, and every Door game that has ever existed for the Major / Worldgroup software; ~ and its free. Come and enjoy yourself; please dont allow yourself to get so worked up over it though..

Make sure you copy over the wcc*.vir files, or your monsters won't reset their limited item drops to drop the 1st kill. The realm was swept and restarted but the limited items wont drop the 1st time and the quest weapons might take a while to regenerate..
Hope that helps..

There's a topic on how to do a perfect realm reset, correct? And it has extra information for edited realms?

Where is that post? =)
