The Cleft of Dimensions is constantly being updated, poked, prodded, and tweaked. To keep everyone informed of the various changes, the Immortals semi-regularly post Change Notes in-game. This page will copy those notes as well.

Truce has some graphics (11 Jan 2024)

First, use Mudlet.

Second, install the latest Cleft of Dimensions package. It should automatically update itself on login, but it's also available at https://cleftofdimensions.net/clients/cleftofdimensions.mpackage.

Third, type "pixelart" to toggle the pixel art setting on and off.

Fourth, look at NPCs in Truce!

Viorar's next.

2023 Change Notes

Changes 13 Jun 23

- shield slam no longer removes your shield, but halves your shield block chance for a round or so after using - shield slam receives a damage bonus proportional to the amount of AC your shield grants - retort can now be used without blocking first, but with quadruple lag time (16 beats vs 4) - lionhearted and brinksmanship should deliberately ignore any extra CURRENT hp from courage - indomitable should ignore extra MAX hp from courage - if practiced above 60%, endure will now automatically trigger upon lethal damage, but with triple the already-high cooldown - since it makes saves useless, zeal now gives a physical damage bonus proportional to half your saves bonus when active

- ninjas' flee bonus was incorrectly being given to merchants instead

-Bea
