Wel, we have a shoutbox and blah, is cool and all that but for example, there's like 6 members online, if we had a chatroom we would chat and talk instead of posting and waiting in the shoutbox of posting a whole topic about things like a live chatroom should eb added.
And instead the shotubox would be sued when people is not conencted and you want to say something



Chat Link

I suggest you bookmark it!
We're working on a better site

You can register one somewhere.

well, we can register somewhere a free chatrrom and then make a link in the forum (instead of embedding it on the forum like the shoutbox)
perhaps I make a freewebs accoun ts and use the chatrrom

Yeah, another embedded thing would slow this page down way too much. I think you can also get JUST a chatroom at bravenet. Haven't tried them myself though.

I got a chatrrom working in my old freewebs account:

Chatroom

That was fast.

I used to have like 5 freewebs accounts. then I learned it sucked and I left web making for a while. I still remember the passwrod so I sat-up quickly a builtin chat

People go in the chat mean and GML_josea are there now.

Nothing shows up but a gray box...

Do you have java enabled?

there's sevaral causes for this:
-if you use mozilla enable javascript, and download the java plugin
-if you have IE download the hava plugin

Does javascript count as java? Because I use javascript on my site and it works fine.

well, sometimes applets are called from javscript, sometiems are called from HTML, hmmm, yes, you cna even have javascript disabled and the thing should work if you download the plugin
got to the plugins page of mozilla

But I dont have mozilla, will it still work?

I use IE, and it works... Firefox sucks...

ok, search in the java site for the plugin and that's all :)

Update:

Well, Soten doesn't like freewebs, so, he wants a better host. I hear suggestions :D. A host that has that option built-in would be betetr, or you'll need to wait for me learn Java :P

Also you'll notice these days some changes on the look of the Chatroom, I'm designing a layout for it, to make the chatroom more "Interesting", and to practice my Javascript knowledge :P
Meaning you'll be able to see contents like recent games and info while chatting. This can even transform into the official C++ GD forum website.

But let's give time to the time, I hear any suggestions and help about the site.

t35 (Soten's host) is worse than freewebs in my opinion. I guess we could use bravenet.

Angelfire maybe? Though it seems alot of people dont like it.

nah, none of those really bad free hosts(tripod, freewebs, angelfire). Maybe geocities, it's pretty good on it's ad's(you can delete 'em). or, if somebody has one, we could host it on an x10hosting account(but we all know how hard it is to get one).

I hate geocities...
What other hosts are there?

And whats so bad about angelfire?

but hey, the chatroom is builtin freewebs, if we choose another host guess, it will dissapear. We need to make our own chat system and then search for a host. x10hosting is good, also domaidlx and 0catch.com but I don't want to seek another host before having a fully working chat.

I don't know, agelfire is a good host and that but sometimes it gets some really hardcore downtimes

Well, I have a good idea. If you people can find a good host and a new java chatroom okay, but I'll be working on a chat client. the only thing we would need is a 24/7 server, or perhaps a 20/7 server

Let's just keep the current one.

yes, is still there, why the heck people don't go there? if you forget about it bookmark it

Once I have time Ill download the plug in, Im downloading a few things now.

BTW my site never goes down and its hosted by angelfire.

1. You aren't checking it 24/7 are you?
2. What's your site?

I've got proffesional hosting. I'll set up a chat as soon as I can.

cool :)

Okay, try this. It's got an ad, but it's a very good chatroom.

C++ Game Dev Chat

Im going to work on a script to login easier.

tH3r3 |5 l13k |\|00N3 th3r3!!!!!!!!!!!!1

No but people are there from all around the world(if you click check stats at bottom you can see where everyone lives, yea Im spying on all of you :P ) and no one has had a problem with it being down, only not being able to download from it.

:lol:
Hmmm, Soten made a typo in the chatroom's link, he put "Livee" instead of "Live"

um..everybody knows that the presedent of the world changed it!

I moved this to Announcements instead of creating another new chatroom topic.

Cheers,

gamehawk
