MajorMUD
Some of you might have come to this site looking for the current status of TDH’s mud. You can still find all the old information here. But, in the future, check this blog for updates on mud.
That said, the current status is, well, not good. Mud is definitely down, and pretty much dead in it’s old form. But we haven’t given up on it. We’ll keep working on replacing the old mud and will be sure to let you know when that happens.
Hopefully 2006 will be a rennaissance year for text based RPGs 😉

As most of you have figured out the TDH BBS (MajorMud) is not easily fixed. The critical problem is that when a user creates a new Mud Character, the system will freeze and crash. Only solution is to hit the reset switch.
We have tried repairing the system, by restoring an old backup. Everything appeared clean in this backup, but after having the system up for a week, the problem started reoccurring.
We have also tried resetting mud, the crashing still happens. I suspect it is a problem with the Worldgroup 1.01 version of MajorMud. I image most BBS are using the Worldgroup 3, and are not encountering this issue. It has come to light that we down a license to Worldgroup 3, unfortunately we do not have any install media, nor do we know if our Worldgroup 1.01 registration code, and activation code will work.
I hope to have some time in the next couple of months to try and get something up and running.

I got an e-mail from MajorMud saying that they are releasing a new version 1.11p next week and that should fix the new user crashing bug.

Really? We will have to check out this new development. Mud may be returning faster then I expected if that is the case.

Apparently, when people reroll their charachters, it would also crash… but who knows when they will really release it 🙂

There is a beta of 1.11p on clubmet. I downloaded it. Maybe we can play with it?

1.11p is out of beta and I downloaded it a few days ago. Hopefully this coming weekend we can see if it helps.

Hey ya’ll-
After visiting TDH and finding the mud down, I got antsy and curious about other MajorMUDS out there..
I found a pretty virgin one at thekeep.net, there are only like 10 people active and lots of classes still open for the quest weapons, and I think it’s all the way up to MOD 8 or 9..
It’s a subscription BBS, but only $20 for 3 months unlimited access, but you can get an account and play till lvl5 5 for free.
Just thought I’d throw if anyone is interested in mudding.

I used to mud when I was 11 and 12 when the Internet could be navigated by a yellowbook that I bought at barns and noble.
Sucks to see the mighty TDH.Com is now a blog….weak
