Online Creation

Online Creation, or OLC is a type of software add-on for Dikumud variant online text adventure games, released publicly as NiMUD or "The Isles MUD" by authors Herbert "Locke" Gilliland and Christopher "Surreal" Woodward (deceased) and in 1992 and 1993, respectively. It changed the way Dikumud worlds were created, providing an outlet for those who wished to edit the game. The software's popularity continues to grow, as it has been ported to a variety of MUD softwares and is currently included in at least 35 derived works. OLC became known as "Ivan OLC", "EnvyOLC", "ROMolc" and "ILAB/OLC" after Jason Dinkel ported this work to other MUD softwares. In 1996, SMAUG was released claiming its own completely independent "Online Building" system, which was inspired by an older non-OLC online building system used by some SillyMUDs. It was later revealed through examination that this software was, as well, similar to OLC and was probably "reverse engineered" from the original OLC.
