About this resource
Original EmberMUD-0.9.29b.tar.gz. Historical EmberMUD 0.9.29b ROM 2.3-derived C source distribution with release documentation and bundled data. Preserve release-specific build and world-format assumptions. Credits Kevin Williams / Zak, EJ Wilburn / Zane, James Ledbetter / Thexder and EmberMUD contributors. ROM 2.3 by Russ Taylor / Alander and contributors. Merc by Michael Chastain, Michael Quan and Mitchell Tse. DikuMUD by Sebastian Hammer, Michael Seifert, Hans Henrik Staerfeldt, Tom Madsen and Katja Nyboe. Retain all individual component and area credits. The unofficial bugfixed release is credited to Rindar / Ron Cole. License and attribution Inherited DikuMUD, Merc and ROM 2.3 notices impose conditions including noncommercial use, preserved notices and help/login credits, and notification requirements. These are not unrestricted-use or public-domain packages. Historical contact addresses may no longer work. Licensing approval remains unresolved. The bundled EmberMUD notice requires EmberMUD login attribution, unchanged help ember/help embermud, retained README/license files, derivative labeling and respect for the reserved EmberMUD name. Preserve inherited and component-specific notices alongside these terms. This release uses the older notice requiring an attempt to contact at least one EmberMUD coding-team member before opening a MUD. Do not replace it with a later license variant. Compatibility and safety warnings Historical software not compiled, executed, malware-scanned or security-audited by Mudhaven. Modern compiler, operating-system and save/world compatibility is unverified. Review archived scripts, accounts and runtime defaults before use. The early README records lost original attribution for OLC code derived from The Isles 1.1 and expresses uncertainty about MOBProg authorship. Preserve this provenance gap rather than asserting that every component is cleared. README.b explicitly says this bugfixed release was not produced or officially sanctioned by the EmberMUD creators. Preserve its unofficial provenance and check redistribution scope.
