You need to change the room names stored in your map so that they have the proper capitalization (first letter capitalized).

That was on a fresh map. The rooms had just been created when I tried to go back over them. I thought that trigger was supposed to fix the capitalization. If not, then what should I do?

Thank you (everyone) so much for helping me with this. This community is wonderful! :)

Edit: Also ticked the option to use proper casing in the configuration menu. Didn't help. Should I post a video of what's happening? Would it help any at all?

Edit2: Ok I went ahead and made the video anyways. Let me suggest turning it up to HQ though so you can actually SEE the text.

Check in the settings, under the map. Is there a trigger with that room name when you try and enter the room? Is it enabled or disabled? Does it look like it would actually match that room name?

Check what the mapper is telling you the room name is. If you mapped it without that trigger originally, it will have made the first letter of the room name in lower case. This won't be changed after you change the trigger for the room name per gamma_ray. I had to go back and change all my room names (I already had around 3000) to get those first words to match. gamma's trigger is mainly for mapping, so that the mapper records the room name correctly.

Nix that, I know why. When you reconfigured it changed what it detected the prompt as again. Change that back to what I mentioned earlier.

That seems to have done it! I've just started testing it mapping wise. I'll let you know if it's working now. I'll post the steps of what I did too, so others will know! :)

Interestingly, I eventually managed to get mapping to work correctly in MKO and give rooms proper case when mapping them without any fancy triggers just by tweaking various setting till I got something that worked.. of course the trouble with that is I have no idea which settings might break it again if I did more tweaking, though if anyones interested i can run through each setting and tell you what its set for

You are even getting the first word capitalized? I know Avasyu is working on getting the IRE muds to fix things like this, but MKO still is sending the room name ATCP message with the first word in lower case.

This should be fixed now. The Room.Brief should now be capitalized properly.

I just started playing on Midkemia and I don't get ANY room info via ATCP at all. The only thing I receive is the Char.Vitals.
