Reposting this in the correct sub-folder, as I sleepily placed it in the wrong place last night.
I am attempting to connect to Lich using a third-party client. It is GMA Games' VIP MUD, a client for visually impaired/blind players.
Taken from the other post, I understand the gist of how to try to accomplish this:
"
The gist of it is you need to launch lich with these arguments: --without-frontend --detachable-client=8000
Then with whatever client you're using to connect, you would connect to "localhost" or 127.0.0.1 for the server, using port 8000"
I've installed Ruby 2.0 32-bit and Lich latest version.
The GTK point-click interface is inaccessible to a screen reader, which I had expected but it's a bit disappointing all the same. (This is likely due to either the GUI not being setup for keyboard-only access or something is blocking the screen reader's access to the MSAA information for each element. I hit the tab key and get no screen reader input as to what the element I might be focused on is - so either it's not focusing with the keyboard or the screen reader has no way of knowing what the element is.)
I was hoping to choose to login via the Simutronics website. However, with no access to the Lich GUI, I'm not sure if this is possible to setup using command line arguments.
I'm going to check out the Lich wiki but not sure if there may be anything there.
Any insight on this?
