Excellent! Thank you! Can you please tell me how to get it to default to English? I've set it to English in my online Raidersoft control panel, but it will only login in German. Thanks again.

Nice work....but I too am getting just the German language, but I'd like English.

Don't suppose you've already figured it out, smoknz28? I tried Josh's 1.5 version but it couldn't authenticate my username/password. Of course that was for .threads 6.3 I believe but it was worth a try. Road block! *grin*

I've looked through his code and I can't figure it out.... I'm still trying however and if I can figure it out I'll be sure to reply or PM you with what I did to make it work in english.

My mod works fine in 6.4 - we're using it here.

If you don't have the paid version of Raidersoft, you just need to turn off the automatic authentication - as the free version of Raidersoft doesn't support it.
That's probably why you couldn't authenticate your username/password. You must have left that option on.

The nice thing about Nettomo's hack is that it will authenticate the user's username and password with the free version of Raidersoft however, it's only readable in German.

Not really - that's just using the threads authenticate() function, Very similar to the "Generic Threads Page" mod.

Basically just pre-fills in the username for them. Any of the chat mods will do that.

That works fine 90% of the time, except users can click logout then signin with any username they want. Thus easily impersonate others.

To actually authenticate it against Raidersoft you have to have their service to do that.

But you can authenticate() on any threads page to make sure that a user is logged in.

With the paid version you can have the Raidersoft server verify identity agains your user base, in case anyone tries to use the chat room by bypassing your chat page and going in directly or anyone tricking it into letting them change their name.

But otherwise, this looks much like any of the other chat mods posted. Basically just pre-fills in the username into the java applet.

Ahhhh... Makes sense now Jedi Master. []http://www.jedimaster.net/_borders/JizLane.gif[/]

Nettomo,

Can you tell me how to make my chat room default to English? I've set it to English in my Raidersoft control panel but it doesn't seem to work - it defaults to German.

Thanks!

smoknz28,

Got it! You have to make a minor adjustment to sigma_chat.tmpl.


==== Look for ====

<applet codebase="http://client1.sigmachat.com/current/"
code="Client.class" archive="scclient_de.zip"
width=700 height=375 MAYSCRIPT>
<param name="room" value="$room_number">
<param name="cabbase" value="scclient_de.cab">
<param name="username" value="{$user['U_Username']}">
<param name="autologin" value="yes">
</applet>
<br>

==== Change to ====

<applet
codebase="http://client.sigmachat.com/current/"
code="Client.class" archive="[:"red"]scclient_en.zip [/]"
width=700 height=375 MAYSCRIPT>
<param name="room" value="$roomnumber">
<param name="cabbase" value="[:"red"]scclient_en.cab[/]">
<param name="username" value="$Username">
$aasoutput
<param name="autologin" value="yes">
</applet>


You may have already figured it out, but just in case you haven't. Enjoy!

Hey Sky YYZ, thanks for working on this one...I gave up all too quickly.

Thanks again for taking the time out and figuring it out.

3rd line on your new code there's an added space before the end quotes. I changed it over to en on both lines as you recommended and it's working like a charm.

Much thanks....

Hey smoknz28,

I can't take credit for the code - it was a copy/paste. The space is my fault, I probably wasn't careful enough when I used ubb colour code...

Glad it worked for you too.

I just signed up for the free service & installed your script. But when I run it, I get the following message; Applet Halted. This chat room is closed. My account number is in the sigma_chat.php file. What am I forgetting?

Anybody there?

@ ScriptZ Man i'm send PM repley

--------------------------------------

in sigma_chat.tmpl
search:
<applet codebase="http://client0.sigmachat.com/current/"
change in:
<applet codebase="http://client1.sigmachat.com/current/"


the server "http://client[:"red"]0[/] .sigmachat.com" is from time to time down !
