You don't need permission to run your own show, Lonely Saturday Night is a garbage bin thing anyway.

Re: ffr vidchat mondays

also another request: can someone find a client that isn't shit (i.e. something that's not TinyChat)

there is a flash video chat roaming around that is apparently open source, but requires a database; someone could try implementing it on a server of whatever

Re: ffr vidchat mondays

Well, there's Google Hangout, that's kind of a nifty little thing, it's just bad at being public so anyone can join like tinychat, lol. Not what you're thinking though

Re: ffr vidchat mondays

ugh, you know - this kinda hurts on a personal level, being completely serious

as long as you're not abusing poWerZ it's fine

Does it have the multi-windows-at-once functionality that TinyChat does? That's why the parties on tinychat are so fun. It's like being in a room of people.

Re: ffr vidchat mondays

oh, here it is: http://www.red5chat.com/

not sure how good it is, I remember trying to implement it like three years ago; maybe it can be added to FFR as a temporary solution if someone is good enough at changing up the necessary code.

EDIT: yes, it has multichat support

Re: ffr vidchat mondays

Gg guys. I banned because someone was ip evading in the chat. So i do apologize if any of those were you. I'm at work and will unban when I get to my computer.

Don't worry, I'm not weak or unpopular tho

Re: ffr vidchat mondays

I'm going to download this and see if I can get it on a server; I'm curious about the implementation difficulty.

How many users does it allow at a time? Because tinychat can hold 12 users in a single chat room, and that's really awesome. They're all right next to each other, too, at the front of the screen. It's really cool -- it feels like I'm chatting in an in-person conversation. If the webcams were docked to the side, it wouldn't grab my full attention.

Re: ffr vidchat mondays

Webcams can be selected in multiple instances:


It's like FFR's VC, you can move the camera around -- it's even better in that aspect because you can support as many webcams as you want!

EDIT: I realize, I can't test this installation out in an ideal way because I'm using free webservers, which forces me to use localhost with SQL, but here's the readme packaged with the software:

FLASH PART
----------
edit the FLA red5Chat.fla and configure these lines:

_root.IP = "88.191.36.127";
_root.port=1934;

_root.authentificateURL = "http://"+_root.IP+"/red5chat/testlogin.php";
_root.infoUserURL="http://"+_root.IP+"/red5chat/infouser.php";





PHP part (only if you connect to the database for user authentification)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you use the AUTHENTIFICATION (_root.authentification=true):
- Create tables form create_tables.sql
- edit the PHP/connections folder and setup con1.php to connect the database



RED5 part
---------

- create the chat directory on c:\program files\red5\webapps\
- compile the JAVA and put the classes

of course, we would want to assign chat moderators/administrators, but iirc, this is actually possible to set somewhere

Re: ffr vidchat mondays

red5chat being written in as2 means it has outdated APIs and can't take advantages of new features in as3 unless it was rewritten. i would try to find a better solution, aj.

Don't worry, I'm not weak or unpopular tho

who are you again?

[TC_Halogen]

Re: ffr vidchat mondays

Completely overlooked the fact that it was in AS2, but I'm not sure if it's even possible to find another chat that can do this much for free. This could just serve as a temporary solution and remove stress/pressure from the devs while they work on something official, I suppose?

Re: ffr vidchat mondays

The person that you all got on for unfairly banning in tinychat. Derp.

Re: ffr vidchat mondays

yes i realize that, but you're a nobody on ffr afaic l0l.

anyway, red5chat as a viable solution entirely depends on how easy it is to:
1) port to as3
2) customize to use appropriate graphics for its gui for ffr
3) extend it to use home rolled functionality later on (i.e. integration with ffr engines etc.)

Re: ffr vidchat mondays

I could care less about ffr doe l0l. I'm more into vc than the game.
