As i've spent a little time lately getting to know interfaces (and designing a damn graphical compass) I've decided that i will now be offering custom scripts and interfaces (complete with whatever cool graphics you like)

I'll add to this page as i make some, as an example of my work.

Prices are on a 'one off' basis, so do ask me i can do almost anything within the capabilities of zmud.

I'm interested to see what sort of interfaces you design. I know lots of us have our own nifty displays. You mentioned a compass specifically. Do you use custom graphics for it? I built a compass (for someone else to use with Palisade; I don't use the compass myself) using just the built-in buttons from zMUD. I might look into getting it to work with my automapper to only enable the buttons for the exits that exist in each room. Here's what mine looks like now:



My apologies if this thread isn't a good place to compare and contrast things.

I actually designed a compass as a one off for someone from some old coding when i started one ages ago.

For that specific project i grabbed the nexus sidebar, made all the system health mana ego etc bars fit in, and used the inbuilt ZMUD icons too (except i used ARROWU and ARROWSE etc)

I just spent a long time making the compass perfect, however it's unfortunate zmud isn't built for fast changes, and if you have it update each time you move room, it gets a little slow, there are ways to fix that which i've implemented.

Anyway to extend on what i was on about before, with my mystical powers in photochopping, i can take any graphic you want and put it in there....Anime, military, really if you can get the graphic and draw it, pretty sure i can make it happen within zmud's limitations.

Here's hoping cmud will be a little better with graphical interfaces.

Anyway to answer your question, no i didn't use custom graphics, as the zmud ones i used fit perfectly within the nexus sidepanel compass, and actually look quite nice as they light up etc.

As of today anyone who has a custom picture, i will add it into their copy of my system for free.

The picture must be a bitmap sized to be 180X400.
