MAPPERS, MMAPPER

This help page is about programs that help you create automatic maps. Please see

help
map

for other topics.

A program that automatically creates a visual representation of MUME's world is called a mapper. Usually it allows you to show your current position, the terrain, remembers doors, some mappers allow to display guilds, shops, places of fresh water or other information.

Some mappers are available for Linux and Windows.

Please note that mappers are neither written nor supported by MUME's coders and management! They are projects by other players!

If you encounter problems in setting up a mapper or using it, please do not ask via pray for help from the immortals. Use the site/email-address of your mapper's developers to ask questions, sometimes mortals can help if you narrate about it.

MUME has a special XML-mode that is supported by some mappers, for others you may have to configure colours via the change colours command. Please refer to the README-files of your mapper for further information.

Mappers that are used and written by players of MUME are:

What is MUME?

MUME, Multi-Users in Middle-earth, is a multiplayer text-based online game based upon J. R. R. Tolkien’s Middle-earth during the epic wars of the late Third Age between the forces of the Dark Lord and the armies of the Free peoples. MUME is completely at no cost and has been continuously running, expanded, and remastered by a community of volunteers since 1991.
