Achaea Help Files

Achaea has hundreds of help files to you learn about Achaea. This is a copy of the in-game help file structure. HELP in-game will show you this same menu.

19.20 MXP - MUD eXtension Protocol

MXP is a MUD communication protocol that allows us to send enhanced information
within the normal text stream. Examples of this enhanced information are:
formatted text, clickable commands, and even images.

To enable MXP for your character in Achaea, type:

  CONFIG MXP ON

You can read more about what MXP offers at:

You may also have to enable MXP in your MUD client. Instructions for various
popular MUD clients that do not automatically enable MXP follow:

 CMUD v3.12 (Beta version)
---------------------------
 - Click on "Options" in the top toolbar, then click on "General".
 - Click on the "MXP" tab in the "Preferences" window that opens.
 - Click on the button "Force remote MXP" if it is not already enabled.

 MUSHclient v4.40
------------------
 - Click on "Game" in the top toolbar.
 - Mouse over to the "Configure" menu option.
 - Click on the "MXP / Pueblo" menu option.
 - Click on "Use MXP/Pueblo" drop-down menu and choose "Yes - always".
 - MUSHclient supports an outdated version of the MXP specification, and
   therefore does not allow for all of the features used by zMUD and CMUD.

 Nexus (IRE's Java Client)
---------------------------
 - MXP is compatible with our Nexus Client.


* Note to users of MudBot:

MudBot intercepts communications between Achaea and your MUD client. Therefore,
some features of the MXP specification cannot be negotiated between Achaea's
server and your client.
