# 中华英雄 / Chinese Hero

> slug: `zhyx` · browser status: `playable` · native port: `40233`

中华英雄 (Chinese Hero), the current, actively-maintained version of an ES II-lineage mudlib whose author still runs the live production server at mud.ren:5000. Shares its registration flow and F_DBASE-style property-storage architecture with this collection's other yh2003-family libs (yanhuangwuhun, yhyxs) -- an English login id, Chinese surname and given name, dual admin/regular passwords, a 1-5 character-aptitude choice, and a gender choice -- but has diverged over years of independent development into its own large domain and quest-line list: nearly 100 named locations built around traditional wuxia themes of sect apprenticeship, martial-arts training, and itinerant heroism, alongside a reincarnation system, an auction house, and a bulletin-board system. New arrivals land in the 世外桃源 entry scene shared with this lineage's sibling libs, greeted by the NPCs 水笙 and 狄云. dns_master.lpc keeps a real UDP socket open and has been observed exchanging live 'mudlist ping' broadcasts with another real Chinese MUD on the public internet.

## Run natively with FluffOS

1. Build a current FluffOS driver from https://github.com/fluffos/fluffos
   (native `build` / `build-debug`; see that repo's docs).
2. Download and unzip `zhyx.zip` from the URL above (or clone
   `https://github.com/fluffos/mudlibs` and use `libs/zhyx/`).
3. From the unzipped lib directory, ensure `config.fluffos` points
   `mudlib directory` at this tree (the checked-in file may contain a
   maintainer-local absolute path — edit it to your extract path).
4. Start the driver:

```bash
/path/to/fluffos/build/src/driver config.fluffos
```

5. Connect a UTF-8 MUD client to `127.0.0.1:40233`.

- Admin / wizard login: `fluffos` / `Mud@2026`
- If you host this on a public network, change the published default
  admin password before opening the port.
