A New Front Door for Luminari

An open copper-trimmed doorway welcomes a traveler into a warm archive and guild hall.

You may have noticed the signpost changed. In July 2026, luminarimud.com was rebuilt from the ground up, and the old site's scattered corners were gathered into one easier-to-read home.

What moved in

  • The whole archive came along. More than a decade of posts, lore pages, and forum threads carried over, with old links redirecting to their new homes. The forums remain as a read-only archive.
  • A new wiki. wiki.luminarimud.com gathers the lore of Lumia: its peoples, gods, history, and mysteries. It also has starter and connection guides and a page for each of the eighteen base classes.
  • News & Updates. Development posts live at /news/, with artwork thumbnails and an RSS feed. Retrospective posts now fill the gap between 2023 and today.
  • Getting started. The play page covers the browser client, Mudlet, and any telnet client. The old Flash clients are retired, and their links lead there instead.

Still on the workbench

A few older tools, including the object database, world maps, and region editor, are not yet available on the new site. The tools page shows their status honestly rather than linking to broken pages.

The game itself did not move. It still runs at luminarimud.com port 4100. The website and wiki are live now.
