trouble with cmud
 
I have used cmud and zmud before that but, I am not all that tech savvy

now Cmud has given me some problems one night i log into my MUCK everything is fine, the next day i log in and it like all my settings have been turned off

i remember this would happen in the past and needed to restart the computer to fix it ...restarting has been of no help anymore

i can still see the settings under the Package editor and they all say Enabled but buttons are gone triggers do not work etc...

would be very grateful for any help
thanks

It sounds like you might be on a new system.
Did you make sure to run CMUD as an Administrator at least once?
This will ensure the program has write permissions so you can save your personal settings.

Does the little gun icon in the lower right (by the clock) have a red x through it?
That would explain it and clicking it would turn them back on.

the little gun icon does not have a red x

ps want to thank anyone and everyone for the help regardless

Then my next guess is a corruption issue.
Under the file menu of the settings editor you can export your session settings to XML, prior to closing CMUD and deleting your session.pkg file.
And then import them again after you launch your session anew.

Failing that, you might have to recreate your settings manually without importing.
