[color=Red][/color] I think that you should put in a background for every place. for example, for woods put a woodlind background for Graveyard put a dark gloomy place with tumb stones.  i can help if you want.

Man, I think that would be hard for the staff, and laggy. IDK really. I don't know anything about programing.  Text is fine with me.. Because you use your imagination as you play, that's what so cool bout MUD games.. But that's just me..

theres no need for this, ive played a mud like that and the lag was rediculous, also for this to be an actual browser where you can click pictures and such, is preety rare in itself (i think ive only heard of about 20)

hmm i like it the way it is but why would this increase lag? why not make the background a file you can dl and have your client load it when you enter some area? like for desert make a sand bg and you just have to load it once untill you leave desert.

Have you thought of the lag this would create when you are rocketing through the map, whilst your windows tries to load 2384796598276 pictures all at once?

no dude my idea is that it just loads the pic once when you enter some area and then doesn't load again untill you enter an area with a new bg. couldn't jlh just put a flag on some squares where it sais load desert.bg and stuff? then it puts up that bg and doesn't load a new one till you reach a new flag?

I wonder if you would complain of lag if there was a code put in like /togglebackground. You are taking time to load your backgrounds, the enemy chasing you has theirs turned off. While you thought you were loading your desert background, suddenly you see Boar's Tusk background loaded.
It didn't take too long to load, you can live with the lag. But since your opponent has his backgrounds turned off, it would feel a lot more like you died with the lag.

That would be fairly hard. We don't have any really good graphic artists at the moment. So making entire backgrounds for different areas would be very time consuming and hard. If we found a few artists that were good then this may be a good idea. But until then I doubt it will happen.

if there would be such a command and you don't turn it on your just an idiot or if you didn't use it on purpose you got to deal with the chance you have a little more lag for a sec
