What mud do you recommend? (self.Blind)
submitted by the-cat1513
Hi!

I am looking for a mud to play, and although I asked already on the muds subreddit I am recommended by many without a blind player base, or with some accessibility issues.

I'm looking for a mud that already has a soundpack, or is screen reader friendly. Preferably star wars or science fiction.

Which one would you recommend? And I apologize if I ask too much haha

Play any of them you want, there all accessible, some more user friendly than others. Just get a good client and your good to go. Alter aeon is a good one to start with, though. Head over to r/MUD and find some there.

not all of them are accessible in my experience. Not quite at least.

Some use characters to make templates, others insert lots of weird or unnecessary characters at various points in their text, and in most of them I lose a lot of info in the channels for example, so I asked for muds that had a soundpack. I would try to do it myself, but college doesn't give me much time to get to work on it.

Oh well alter aeon is a good one, or cosmic rage was a few years ago, theres a few others like cloakmud, might be spelt wrong but may be able to find it, or artwolf, star wars mud is pretty blind friendly too although no soundpack that I know of, don't really need one though in my opinion.

Gemstone IV!
One of the GameMasters is also blind.
I am visually impaired and it is my favorite game.

the mud have a soundpack or is there a client with basic things?

What is mud about?

The data you are reporting sounds interesting

Fantasy mud, there are actually three clients. One is more barebones and I prefer that. I use the Wizard client. the StormFront client is more full-featured.
There is a music pak and you can assign your own sounds to events.

Have you tried Cosmic Rage?
They have a soundpack too, you can download it from dropbox. Once you log on, you can type soundpacks and get the one you like.

I actually played it. Until I got to a point where I got stuck haha.

I spent months trying to write my request to enter the sdl but writer's block haha

Oops!
Well, being in the SDL isn't the only thing you can do in the game. I was in the SDL, but I ended up figuring that it wasn't for me, so I retired my character.
It was more fun to play without SDL, SDF at that time, but maybe you will like it.
I think that if you ask for help on the RP channel people will help.
Good luck!
