A modernized .NET 8 rebuild of the VWMUD MUD client, compatible with classic .mud/.tri profiles and scripts.
VWMUD Master 2026 is a modernized rebuild of VWMUD Master, a MUD (Multi-User
Dungeon) client originally written by Vaughan Wynne-Jones from 1994 to 2007.
It targets .NET 8 while remaining compatible with the original .mud
configuration and .tri trigger file formats and scripting DSL, so existing
character profiles and automation scripts keep working unchanged.
