Loading ZMud on startup
 
Dual-Core P4 (3.0GHz,2.99GHz)
OS: WindowsXP Professional
RAM: 1024MB

Just wandering if anyone has tampered with running ZMud on startup and having it connect to a mud automatically. I can get it to run on startup, but I haven't really tampered with having it connect to a mud automatically yet.

It's possible that there's a commandline option to do this, but they're not documented. Have to see if Zugg knows.

This is available in CMUD, drag the session icon into the startup folder in the start menu.

edit the shortcut properties for zmud so the target looks like this (if I recall correctly)


"c:\blah\zmud.exe" mysessionname

If that doesn't work open zmud rightclick on your session->edit and locate the "session id" number
and then in your startup shortcut properties change the target to

"c:\blah\zmud.exe" sessionidnumber
(I know this one works)

As for having it log in automaticly you will need to have autologin triggers setup on our session. if you need help with this please make a new post asking for help on setting up autologin triggers. be sure to include an example of you logging in between some [ code ] tags [ /code ]. (hide your password though!)

You know, I tried both those suggestions, and neither one worked. Am I missing something, nexela? My session id number, oddly enough, is Aardwolf. Not a number at all, but a word. And yes, I'm looking at Session ID:...

EDIT: Never mind. Fixed it. Was doing it through the actual zMUD icon, not a shortcut...
