Subsim Chat

modisch · 04-16-08, 01:57 AM

I noticed on the main subsim.com webpage, there's a link for chat... and it takes you off to Java client for IRC (internet relay chat). But the channel it automagically joins, #WPL, is very empty.

I'd enjoy sitting in IRC on one computer, chatting with my fellow SH3 and SH4 captains... while at sea on my priamry computer. No reason to be completely solitary...

Is there any chance of breathing new life into the chat room? Who's administering it? Would anyone else like to participate?

Cheers,

Why do that when you can run ventrillo or teamspeak and just talk? You dont even have to pay for hosting and can run the server for ventrillo from your own computer. Thats what i do. if you need help setting up the vent server i can post a walktrough in another post as to how to get it running and what needs to be done to tweak it.

I agree with "still..." Voice chat is more intuitive and can all run on one machine. You don't even have to task switch. Roger Wilco is another very easy to use free voice client-server.
