Hey,
Im gonna start making a sort of chat bot that relays IRC> HZ, HZ>IRC
if that works it get more detailed.
I did allready did contact devs and they said its ok and might want to help.
If u got some good knowledge whit programming or php just let me know (pm's preferd)
A preview from another bot we did made for another game is at irc://irc.wuffpaws.com/Freedom
To see what the bot can do do !whois Name
Like: !whois onnidrag
Greetings, Onni
Don't think you need a bot so much as an interface into the game's UI. Then you can just use a simple IRC client that pipes the info to and from the interface.
That would be so sweet to be able to access the irc channel from in game without being in windowed mode. My comp doesn't like playing nice in windowed mode or I would be on the irc channel more often.
But u need then the 3D client running
After bot does work it gets adds so it will be able to show info about other players, The bots running at IRC (irc://irc.wuffpaws.com/freedom) did just got an nice update.
Not sure what you are wanting to accomplish with this project.
Are you wanting to have access to IRC while in the game client?
or
Are you wanting the in-game chat piped out to IRC?
I think the former would be easier to make happen than the latter. Not only from a technical standpoint, but from a policy one as well. I don't think they want to open up their servers to outside, unrequested traffic, which is what they would have to do with the latter.
As I stated above, the former just needs the client to expose the UI to an outside process, which would be a slightly customized chat client to take advantage of the exposed interface.
Its ment to show the current guild chat in an special irc channel and if that works we just make an option for private tell etc on it if posible
I asked Yesterday Rawdge from TG some help and hes asking if any programers maybe has some info for me so lets wait :)
Well, if you want to pipe stuff out of guild chat into IRC, that could be done by opening the latest chatlog file, parsing any data appended to it, and if the room identifier equals "Guild:" or whatever it is, then send that line through some IRC client code to the IRC server.
However, that works one-way only. You won't be able to get stuff from IRC into the game.
If I understood correctly, he intends to snoop on the UDP traffic and spoof "cs-chat" messages to make the server think the client just told it to say whatever it is that's getting relayed from IRC.
I thought this wouldn't get much developer support because it seems to me to be a large step in the direction of 3rd party macro systems. It seems counter productive for the dev team to help players hack the datastream...
Of course, I'll be interested in any findings in that area myself... I promise not to do anything bad with the knowledge. ;)
It's ment to use for live chat, im still waiting at devs so lets hope :P
Okies, since theirs going some bad rumours about me il quit whit every thing i was doing for others so il quit whit this chat bot to, sorry for all others
Have a look at Anarchy Online. There are lots of bots, some public, most guild intern. They are just fun and give some support like helptexts when asked for how-to do something... Some just give funny answers.
Of course it's something different having a robot in a SciFi scenario.
Wrong forum
I know that 1 i have helped them a bit, thats why i want at HZ one to.
Okay, just talked to and am receiving source code for a chat bot that USED to work once upon a time with Horizons to IRC, and also to a lot of other games.
Once I get the source, anyone out there willing to work on this project? My prog skillz are next to non-existent, so if left to do this myself, it will take forever + a day.
thanks bunch
