The main MUSHclient downloads page mentions version 3.45, which is fairly old by now.

Has anyone who has used the more recent versions got a reason that the "offical" version cannot now become 3.50?

I think it is pretty stable and is probably an improvement on 3.45.

Haven't had a problem so far. But I don't spend insane amounts of time testing every feature. Which is why we missed the plugin script issue. ;) If I was writing it myself, instead of just a lazy sucker that just used it, I would seriously consider running an automated system of tests in a script, just to see if anything got missed. This may not however be practical for some things, like dialogs though...

In any case, nothing blew up when I ran it, all the plugins loaded correctly, my world file didn't get eaten and some of the odd stuff I do worked, but that isn't exactly a comprehensive test. ;) lol

I used every version since it came out, and I saw no problems... Arrays work, paths work, my plugins work fine, no bugs so far, so I don't see why not.

OK, very good. Version 3.50 is now the official version.

I've had only one problem with version 3.50 so far, and that's only that I can't get the sound for incoming messages to activate. No matter how many times I go in and load a sound file to it. And I'm not the only one, a friend of mine tested this as well.

  1. Is this the "new activity" sound, or a sound for a trigger?

  2. Does the sound play when you click the "test" button?

  3. What sort of sound file is it? Some sound files don't work (some internal problem, eg. number of bits or something).

  4. Is this a problem with 3.50 only? ie. are you saying it worked with earlier versions?

This is the "new activity" sound. The file plays just fine when I hit the test button, but I have to find the file every time I open the output button. The sound file is one out of yahoo messenger's media files, called 'pow', and it's only a problem with 3.50, it worked fine, the same sound file, with all earlier versions, and I've had 3 or 4 earlier versions. Any suggestions?

Yes, I see what you mean. That looks like a bug. I moved the "new activity sound" from a different config screen, and that seems to have got lost.

Yes, oops, indeed. :)

As a workaround, edit your .MCL file (world file) with a text editor (eg. Notepad) and find the line containing "new_activity_sound", and manually put in the path to the sound file. Like this:



<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE muclient>
<!-- Saved on Saturday, May 29, 2004, 9:21 AM -->
<!-- MuClient version 3.50 -->
<!-- Home Page: http://www.muclient.com/ -->
<muclient>
<world

   auto_say_override_prefix="-"
   auto_say_string="say "
   command_stack_character=";"
   input_font_name="FixedSys"
   new_activity_sound="C:\WINNT\Media\Musica Restore Down.WAV"
   output_font_name="Fixedsys"


Once it is in the world file it will stay there. The problem is it is not being transcribed from the "browse" button to the configuration screen.

Okay, I think I have a problem.. I don't seem to have an .MCL file. Can you tell me the exact name of this file? The only thing that's changed since I got it, is the added in worlds, and one log. Yes, I'm confused. This is nothing new. :)

It should be in your worlds directory. you might not show extensions. It is your World file, if you go File > Save World Details As...
then youll be able to see exactly where it is, and what its named. Then open it in whatever text editor (notepad, et al), edit, and save.
