MUX 2.6 - Support, Advice, and Helpful Hints

About Converting from MUSH 3.0

Ashen-Shugar of Rhost has graciously provided a script that will convert a MUSH 3.0 flatfile to a MUX 2.x flatfile.

About Converting from Older Versions of TinyMUX

MUX 2.0 has successfully converted TinyMUX 1.4, 1.5, 1.6, TinyMUSH 2.x, U1, TinyMUSH 3.0, and TinyMUX 1.6 BETA for Win32. There is a separately downloaded script for the TinyMUSH 3.0 conversion.

You should not encounter any problems converting your game using the procedures outlined in INSTALL and CONVERSION, but there are a few required configuration file changes.

It is possible to append the contents of the old file to the new one, then edit files to remove redundancies.

- 'cat oldfile >> newfile'
- Open up your editor and make the needed changes.

You should doublecheck that your mail and comsystem databases are named properly in the configuration file and that they are both placed in game/data before you Startmux.
