#56409, "MUD client for Mac users"


          

I've got a friend interested in trying CF out but she has a Mac. Anyone have firsthand experience with a decent and free Mud client for Mac?

Thanks in advance.

You can setup alias and targets, which is all I personally need.

CF is unplayable for certain classes without alias.

I'm quite satisfied with TinTin++. The major caveat for many Mac folks is that it requires only in the terminal (command line).

Website: http://tintin.sourceforge.net/

There is a (somewhat dated) list of MUD clients and supported operating systems on this Wiki page: http://www.carrionfields.net/CFwiki/Clients

A more extensive list can be found on Wikipedia, it seems: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_MUD_clients

I did try Atlantis once many years ago and found it to be decent enough too. It does not appear to have been updated in many years, however.

I have not tried Mudlet but I do see it has seen an update somewhat recently.

Good luck.

This is exactly what I needed as I'm completely unfamiliar with the Mac world.

I have some basic scripts if needed and there are some youtube videos with howto demonstrations.
