Mac Mudlet 1.0.5 now here

Sorry for the delay Mac people – but Mudlet 1.0.5 is now available as an update. We’re using a new and improved installer, and should continue being in sync with the Linux and Windows releases in the future.

Much thanks to shenlon for doing an excellent job on the previous packages, and to ixokai for creating the new installer.

OS X Installer is now available for Mudlet

Thanks to arkholt‘s efforts, a Mac installer for Mudlet is now available!

Download (Note: It requires an Intel OS X 10.5+.)

Mudlet Beta is now available!

Yes, it is here! Go download now.

There are installers for Windows and Ubuntu, with a Mac in plans. Mudlet at this point is a quite usable client for everyday gaming – we’d like you to stress it as much as you can, make it crash, find flaws or find new features that you’d like! Let us know, because we’re listening.

Changes since the pre-alpha version:

Switched to the PCRE 7.6 regex engine which is much more powerful
Enabled the new speed display by default
Improved scripting support with more functions (see help manual)
Improved trigger engine with trigger chains and multicondition triggers – many bugfixes and improvements
Added support for XML packages, including import/export!
Added customizable button bars
Switched from qmake to cmake for building (qmake is still left as backup though)
Improved command line autocompletion
Added buffer limiting to Mudlet (right now it’s hardcoded at 100k lines with 10k batch deletion; this will be customizable later)
Added small screen netbook support
… and a more detailed changelog is available on our git page.

Caveats in the beta version:

Settings from the pre-alpha won’t be transferred – but if you’ve made lot of them and wouldn’t like to lose them, let us know and we’ll add a converter
The interface polishing is not done – does look ugly / unusable in some places, but the functionality should be there

Welcome, Bruno!

Bruno Bigras has joined the team of people behind Mudlet. Bruno is helping on the C++ coding – so he’s making & fixing Mudlet internals themselves. He’s already helped us fix several bugs, and implement a new Connections dialog.

A lil’ bio of Bruno: college student, KDE-trunk fan, OpenBSD and FreeBSD on servers. His native tongue is French, and he resides in Quebec, Canada. Likes hockey, and only buys ThinkPads T-series for laptops.

Mud Styles update

Vadi — Thu, 11 Sep 2008 14:07:55 +0000

Some more work has been done on the Mud Styles this week, and Mudlet now properly encapsulates the paragraph and prompt into div classes, making it possible to use CSS to customize the output. It also appends a header and a footer in case you’d like to use that for something fancy.

Here’s a style Heiko made:

And here’s my creation – I ported the 1337 Adium Message style. Small bashing video available here, and a screenshot below:

Next on the plan would allow the user to modify the raw html themselves, allowing them to insert their own tags and so on – but that’ll be in place after the trigger system is finished.
