Hi, I've been translating the source all with succes so far, until I started the mud this morning and I found out that things were not completely the same as before....

Example: rdescYou float in a formless void, blahdeeblah etc etc...
/rdescExits: none.

I can't seem to find out what caused this problem.. same thing is happening with other descriptions and for example, on the who list it shows:

Supreme Entity player 'Addrodoc'Addrodoc/player de koninklijke koekenbakker.

Also the room descriptions and a few other things changed color from yellow to red... and I dont remember changing any colors at all..

Is there anyone that can point out what I might have been doing wrong?

Thanks in advance.

Made any changes to your MXP tag system? Those look like failed tags that haven't converted somehow.

I started replacing src files, recompiling smaug, and found that the problem was somewhere in act_info.c..

I threw the old one away and replaced it with a clean version of act_info.c and everything seems to be ok now.. :)
(though I still dont know what caused this problem)

I probably deleted/added something by mistake. I dont get much sleep and I mostly work night times.. and I'm still kind of a newbie although I'm learning quite fast.

I apologise for putting up such a simple question, I should have just payed more attention when I was changing the src..

I'm glad someone did reply though, thanks Samson!

p.s I havent used mxp before. It's probably not fully installed on my system because I get to see the mxp tags but I'm not able to click them..
