So old, in fact, that many of you may have never heard of it and it was once the most famousest client ever!) but, like I said I was board... I think it would be cool if you let the pbase have a contest for designing a new, KICKASS login screen, or maybe a few that alternate...cuz I find in muds with alternating logins...I want to login everyday JUST to see what screen is.

Chayesh Posted January 24, 2006 Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 I've found that clients mess it up. For example, everything looks jacked on my client with the ASCII art words, but in notepad, it's perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FatMike Posted January 24, 2006 Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 it's my client too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grannym4n Posted January 24, 2006 Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 Are you making it in a seperate .txt doc Chayesh? Or straight from the help.txt on the FTP? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
p3zd1sp3nx0r Posted January 24, 2006 Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 I probably missed this but why weren't Virigoth and Cyrpticants names in the login? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magick Posted January 24, 2006 Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 If I remember right, they (Viri & Crypt) didn't want to be listed in the credits when Viri left for EA. Chayesh and Lunicant have a more detailed and a better explanation, I'm sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chayesh Posted January 24, 2006 Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 The login screen that Viri had before he left simply mentioned Ath, Latesh, and Alexander. Sometime after that, Viri and Crypt were added, I think by Azreath. When we had one of the crashes at some point, the login screen reverted back to before Viri and Crypt were added. And that was a direct edit on main. Remember, before I world shifted, we were Dead Seagull MUD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a-guitarist Posted January 24, 2006 Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 Login screens dont' always look strange on my client, gMUD. I use Curiour New Font and set notepad to the same. That way you don't have two different fonts that change slightly from oneanother. a-g Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grannym4n Posted January 24, 2006 Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 Well no matter what Chayesh does to format it, it's still gonna come out a bit goofy for a lot of people. That just can't really be helped. I say Chay, just keep editing it in the FTP and world shifting until it looks perfect for you! Cause it doesn't really matter what everyone else sees, cause then you can just screenshot how perfect it is and they can shut up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Behrens Posted January 24, 2006 Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 Viri left it without himself or Crypt. I added them both because whatever you think of Crypt, he left an enormous mark on this game, and I will damn well honor him for it, and of course Viri was the heart of this game for a long time. The Diku credits were added because I forgot to add them, and they should've been there the whole time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warpnow Posted January 24, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 -Most- clients use a basic blockletter, fixed width font as their default. As long as you use a fixed width font, everythin should line up ABOUT right...because every letter takes up that however many pixels. My favorite Fixed width font is Lucida Console cuz its the only one that doesn't look like crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
