E=mc² IRC

Post by Cynyx »

E=mc² IRC channel is UP

In order to have a way to communicate all together, to do better than 1 to 1 STEAM conversation, E=mc² clan have now an IRC channel on quakenet IRC network. It will be usefull for the clan as others players who want speak with us.

How to join us on IRC ?

lazy version :
http://tools.emc2-clan.com/irc

short version :

Code: Select all

irc.quakenet.org
#E=mc2

long version :


1) Get and install an IRC client
For this tutorial, we choose to use Pidgin. Note if you are not a newbie in IRC you can use one other IRC client like (mIRC for example).
Gaim is a powerfull multi protocol instant messenger. It's opensource, free and works on Linux and Windows. so you can have your MSN contacts and the E=mc² clan IRC in the same interface. I had some problem since august with MSN on gaim : solve by download of the beta. Dowload link. I'm advice to you to install English version if you want help ...

2) Configure Gaim settings

step 1 : create a new Gaim account. Go to menu Accounts> Add/Edit

Image

and press [Add] button

Image

step 2 : set parameters to your Gaim account.

Image

In the inputbox "screen name" type your name.
In the inputbox "Server", type : irc.quakenet.org

go to the "Avanced" pannel

Image

check the port is 6667.

step 3 : Connection to quakenet IRC server.

Enable and launch your account

Image

You are connected to quakenet server :

step 4 : Join E=mc² channel :

in the quakenet server windows, type :

Code: Select all

/join #E=mc2
Yeah, your are connected !

After searching to automatize some tasks, it seems that Gaim isn't the must for IRC.

I have only founded one thing, which can be usefull, at least for Cynyx and me. Why for us, because we have some rights on the IRC channel (the star), and the bot on this channel (L) has to authenticate us to give us our rights. You still can do this, so when the L bot will be configured to also give you some rights, you will be automatically authenticated.

Q authentification
  • First of all, you need to do an authentification request to the Q bot.
    (We assume for this that you have already choosen a pseudo for the quakenet server)
    In one of your conversation window, type:

    Code: Select all

    /msg Q@CServe.quakenet.org HELLO YourEmail YourEmail
    You will recieve an e-amil giving you a link to a web page, this web page give you your password.

    Now, you have your authentification informations. To be autheticated, you just have to type:

    Code: Select all

    /msg Q@cserve.quakenet.org AUTH login pass
    Our L bot use the Q authentification to see if you are well which your pseudo pretend to be, and if you are well authenticated then he give you the rights that he is allowed to give to you.

    But authenticating at each session, it is not very funny. So, there is a solution for doing this automatically.
The IRCHelper
  • First you need to install the irchelper plugin.

    For doing this, just open the archive and copy the DLL in the "plugins" directory of gaim (Be also sure you have downloaded and installed the 2.0.0 beta version, because with the 1.5.0 I was unable to use this plugin).

    Now, just launch Gaim. IN your buddylist window: Tools-> plugins.
    There, active the plugin by selecting its checkbox.
Authentification automatisation
  • Now, in the account menu, choose "Add/Edit". Then select your quakenet account. Choose tha advanced tab. There, fill in the Auth Name textbox with your login, and the Nick Password textbox with the password.
    Next time, you will be directly authenticated so that when you came on the Channel, the L bot directly give you your rigths.

I often launched it but I only saw cynyx, fougere, and callahan,and the bot on it. and only in the begining. In my opinion this wasn't very useful. we have the forum, the game and even steam friendlist to speak.

I have seen a lot of chat in stats ... or i know many players who spoken with me... Why not speak all together ?

Perhaps IRC is a good way for that.

because
1) nobody uses it
2) STEAM community can do same

For those not see it, E=mc² IRC is now down.

(I say it because last days, 2 players asked to me IRC channel...)
