-===== 2. Configure MBBSEmu & MajorMUD ===== 
  
-Once installed, you will need to configure MBBSEmu properly to run MajorMUD. The process itself is simple, but there are several options you will need to set depending on your environment. 
  
-MBBSEmu has one JSON file used to control the application settings within MBBSEmu itself, this file is **[[mbbsemu:configuration:appsettings.json|appsettings.json]]**. Settings and options specified within this file are applied globally within MBBSEmu. +===== 2. Registering MajorMUD on MBBSEmu =====
- +
-For MajorMUD, we'll need to make a couple additional configuration changes to make MajorMUD work "out of the box".  +
- +
-The first is that MajorMUD requires users to have the key "PAYING" in order to enter the game. You can either change the MajorMUD configuration in the **WCCMMUD.MSG** file, or add the key to all users that log into MBBSEmu. +

-<markdown> +
-``` +
-  "Account.DefaultKeys": [ +
-     "DEMO", +
-     "NORMAL", +
-     "USER", +

 Activation Codes for MajorMUD (as with most modules for The MajorBBS) are keyed off your boards unique Registration Number. This number is internally referred to as **BTURNO** within The MajorBBS.
