MUD sounds

Eclipse of Fate supports the MUD Sound Protocol (MSP) developed in a large part by the designers of zMUD (a popular PC windows-based MUD client). This means that this MUD actually has sounds you can listen to!

We have sounds and music for combat, spells, and weather!  All you have to do to hear these sounds is download a MUD client that supports MSP.  If you have a PC, you can download zMUD from Zuggsoft.  ZMUD is by far one of the best MUD client's out there.  They are very open to suggestions and they upgrade on a regular basis.  Registering the zMUD client entitles you to free upgrades as they come available.

The next step that you have to do is download the sounds and music directly from EoF's Web page.  These files are available via the links below.  It may take you a while to download all the files if you are using a dial up connection, but it's definitely worth it!

Once you have zMUD installed and the sound files downloaded, you can begin the setup so that you can listen to the music.

1) Find your zmud.exe file.
2) In the same directory that zmud.exe is in, create a new directory and name it "sounds".
3) Enter the new "sounds" directory which you just created.
4) Create two new subdirectories within the new "sounds" directory and name these "midi" and "wav".
5) Unzip the music.zip file which you just downloaded inside the "midi" subdirectory.
6) Unzip the remaining zip files you just downloaded inside the "wav" subdirectory.
7) Run zMUD and make sure that you have MSP support toggled ON.
8) Connect to Eclipse of Fate with zMUD.
9) With your character, type "sounds" and "music".
10) Now your MUDding experience should be greatly enhanced.

We are continually looking for more midi and wav files to add to the MUD.  Send yours to artimus@eclipseoffate.com and please have "EoF wav files" in the subject line.
