Hey all, I've made some progress with the Java version of Crossroads lately. Currently I've got the map loaded, account & avatar creation, all the emotes, and...
Wonder how my screen reader would work with the Java version. It would be interesting to try and find out. Warm regards, Sahar Husseini For hand-crafted,...
The Java stuff is all on the server-side, players still get to pick their own clients so it'll all depend on which client you use. A lot of what I'm working on...
Ah, OK, so it would be an issue of whether the IM client is accessible. The only one I have used is the Windows Messenger. There are probably other ...

Hi, I just tried it with Windows Messenger. Usually, when someone sends a message on the other end, my screen reader tells me the instant message. For some...
OK, I tried it with the Jaws demo I have, and it sort of works. Xroads sends a message about where you are, and another message about visible exits. Jaws...
Hi, OK, so when I went east to city of Aquatica, I went down instead of east. I can't recall from there. There is abbess and sister. Can I leave without ...
Something strange is happening. There is a salamander on the coral reef, and I was in the marsh, and a fire lizard showed up. They didn't bother me because I...
Very nice. I checked it out using AIM on trillian. Works fine for what you have so far. I'm enjoying walking through the realms as if I own the place (no...
I was wondering if any fellow fire mages have used the Firestorm (attained at level 7) spell much. When My mage was level 7, I found that casting this spell...
Nothing to worry about. You are just in the city. Those things don't attack as long as you are in the city. If you go up again, adn run into a Sister, those...
It happens sometimes. Usually an Air Mage has used a spell that sends things out of whatever room they are in, and they randomly appear elsewhere. One that...
Macros are an interesting issue that Exile and I have already discussed a little. The problem is mainly that with a telnet game you have lots of telnet client...
Lost and Found It has been a while, thanks to real life, work, family, and a whole slew of computer-related distractions like upgrading my world to Fedora 7,...
As you may have seen by now, I put together a new wiki site for Xroads. I have seen a few folks here and there signing up... welcome to it! When you sign up,...
A couple of weeks ago (already?!?) I posted an early look at the RPG spellbook here: http://crossroadsoftheelements.com/spellbook/ Since then, the silence has...
... I think a spell book on the website would be useful. I like being able to see what "others" see when a spell is cast. What is the function of the "secret...
... One vote for wiki-fying the spell book then. Cool, thanks! ... Secret Numbers: What is your security clearance, citizen? Magic Numbers: Its, um... magic? ...
Hi, \All of the sudden, I started experiencing very serious lag. Is it me, or is it the server? I mean it takes a couple of minutes for any commands to go to...
I connected to Phauster.net, and I could move fine with that connection. Hmm, curious. Warm regards, Sahar Husseini For hand-crafted, one-of-a-kind jewelry,...
