Royston Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 Is it down again or still down? I cant connect it keeps timing out. First i thought it was my connection but everything else works fine I've been on IRC chat once, and then my Java applet came up with some error. I've tried Mirc, X chat which both come up with errors. I sorted out my Java console, and now times out everytime I try to log in...like mike90. I've tried blackcobalt but I get a load of ads, and I can't see where you get into the SFN# chat room ? I'm pretty new to using domains et.c so probably me just being stupid. The one time I did get on there, I really enjoyed it...so getting a bit frustrated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike90 Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 yeah the chat room has always been my favorite thing about sfn. And with being gone for a bit i thought it would be cool to pop on and catch up with some people. So this whole thing is kind of a bummer =( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

insane_alien Posted August 31, 2006 Author Share Posted August 31, 2006 ok for Xchat when you open the program it will give you a list of servers. click on any one of them and then click edit. at the top bit click add type "blackcobalt.no-ip.org/6667" without the quotes for channels to join type "#SFN" again without the quotes. you can ignore th rest of the options. try that.

Royston Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 Anybody know why the IRC Java times out ? With X chat, and MIRC I get errors when I try to install them (should of said this earlier) so I'm restricted to using IRC. EDIT: I've got Windows ME Ops (yes I know it's rubbish) and I think this is why I'm getting problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

insane_alien Posted August 31, 2006 Author Share Posted August 31, 2006 search google for the .dll and stick it in your system32 directory. umm beyond that i son't know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klaynos Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 http://irc.oppresses.us/client.php Select #sfn from the list. If that fails it's probably your network. The x-chat errror, have you googled, or checked the providers forums? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Royston Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 search google for the .dll and stick it in your system32 directory. umm beyond that i son't know. Doh, I do that all the time...ME is renowned for DLL problems, cheers Klaynos, followed your steps...just get 'undefined string' and nobody online. I'm gonna give Xchat another go.

Royston Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 Aaarrrgghh !!!!! I give up, just wasted a couple of hours when I should be concentrating on an assignment...guess I'll just have to stick to the forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Royston Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 I've managed to get Mirc working, but I can't find the SFN server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klaynos Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 irc.apocalypse.me.uk or irc.oppresses.us Should both work... You'll need to add them to mirc or use the /server command Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Royston Posted September 4, 2006 Share Posted September 4, 2006 Thanks Klaynos, I'll give it a shot...incredibly busy this week, but hopefully I'll be chatting to you guys next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
