I cheked out the website concerning the Rapture engine about nine months ago. I fairly drooled over the documentation. But I thought it had a five-figure price tag? (or thereabouts) How in the world are you guys getting your hands on this? (Other than Matt's great games - I know, he created the engine)
I've been using CoffeeMud by Bo Zimmerman. The man is dedicated to bug squashing and enhancements. A while back I brought up a few things that were beyond our coding capabilities. Poof - We now have a bare framework to go classless/leveless and more importantly to us, we can get a system of persistance in place.
In my opinion, has got to be one of the most fleshed out (free) codebases available. For RPI style (please, no RPI debating) I highly recommend the SOI engine released by Traithe not too long ago.
I've been working with CoffeeMud for over a year now, but would love the opportunity to take a peek at Rapture, the website certainly piqued my interest.
