Any Chance of Incorporating IRC Into Doomseeker?

#1

Post by Stru » Wed Oct 24, 2012 5:17 pm

I use Doomseeker as my Zandronum browser, yet I don't exactly use IRC. It doesn't serve enough purpose to me. I'm the kinda guy that jumps into servers and plays whatever. But there are certain times when I'm like "shit I need to get IRC to request wad URLs or passwords and shit"

I used to have it, but I don't understand it at all. I never used it before Skulltag/Zandronum. Any chance that it'd become a part of the browser, like a messenger tab or something? Or atleast creating a somewhat more developed IRC for less experienced users?

Cheers.

I have the newest one (I believe). It's there, but doesn't work for me. Not sure why.

I'm interested in what was your issue.

Doomseeker - a real answer to cross-platform server browser.
Doomseeker dev builds - unofficial Doomseeker builds for Windows.
Gamer's Proxy - a program to emulate ping and packet losses.

Probably he couldn't find the IRC tab.

Either way, I don't recommend Doomseeker's IRC client as it's very unstable and buggy; I much prefer a dedicated client such as HexChat. Just my two cents. :)

Ask your doctor if Zandrama is right for you. Side effects include butthurt, loss of sleep, loss of ego, embarrassment, and social withdrawal.

So unstable and buggy that I've been using it in the last year or so without a single crash.
Of course there was this one issue that wiped your window if you clicked on a URL that was legitimate but didn't have "www." after "http://", but that was fixed.

Really? For me just the server browsing function of Doomseeker isn't really stable... let alone the IRC.
