DmIRC Version 5.0

Download DmIRC Version 5.0

Alternate download link

No installation necessary, since this is a "portable" version of mIRC. Just unzip and double-click mIRC.exe.

This makes for an easy trial run, especially if you're unsure whether you want to keep this. You can run this along with whatever IRC client you're currently using. In fact, if you unzip to two folders, you can run both v5.0 in parallel, as seen in the screenshot above.

Features:

	Join Rizon chat! Join Own3d chat! Give people colored nicks! (Or manually set it by right-clicking their nick.) Try a dark colored theme! Be alerted when the stream starts! Know what YouTube links are posted! Open images in their own window without a browser!
	Right click in the channel to see the current song or stream status!

No viruses, pinkie swear!

Enabling sound alerts in mIRC

So... I missed that deadline by a ~month. Sorry :(

The next version is finished though, to be released next Sunday/Monday. And it's not a beta! I know, shocking! Just sitting on it right now to make sure that all the bugs are squished.

So in preparation for that release, here's a small guide on how to enable sound alerts in mIRC.

1.		Hit [Alt][B] and then click on the Highlight tab (1). Click Add (2).
2.		Type the words that you want to trigger the sound (3). Separate each word with a comma. The * are wildcards. As shown, they will trigger if someone types "xxxdharmaxxx". If not used, the sound will only trigger if someone types "dharma" without surrounding characters. Choose a color that will apply to the triggering text (4). Choose a sound by clicking the button below twice (5). It will cycle through No Sound, Beep, then it will open a file browser. There will be several .wav files that come with the portable install. If there's nothing there, you're not using my portable :) Choose a sound and click open. Preview the sound by pressing the play button (6). You're done! Hit OK and OK.

(What happened to Version 4.0 Beta 1? I didn't announce it here because... well because. Here's the download for those who want to peek for whatever reason: Click to download.)

Version 3.0, out of date. Please use v4.0 Beta 2 up above ^^

Nifty Features:

• When you right-click a nick, you can "redderize" it, which makes it red. This lets you quickly highlight friends!
• Messages with URLs in them are blue.
• Subtle color tweaks so colors like yellow are more visible on a white background.
• Destiny's nick and text are red, and mods are maroon.
• Appends random number to your nick if it is already taken.

Basic Features:

• Sets "Quakenet - Random Server" as default server and autojoins #DestinySC2.
• Hide join/part/quit messages, as well as the treebar, toolbar, and menubar (you can toggle it by hitting alt)
• Easy Q Nick/Q Password setup, auto-auth/mask, and auto-messaging me your version number so you can be alerted for updates.
• Random nick colors based on hostname, so nickchangers stay the same color.
• Channel, query, and status fonts set to Lucida Sans Unicode, size 10.

You MUST have a Q-Auth name and password to run this. If you don't know what that means, go to my Q Auth Guide.

You can download the "portable" version here. (v3 Beta.) Portable means there is no installation process - just unzip and double click mIRC.exe!

Or you can follow the 20 steps below to configure a fresh mIRC install. Needless to say, it would be much easier to try out the portable version. If you already have mIRC, you can leave it running while testing out the portable version with the same Q auth information! There is no need to even close mIRC to play with the portable install.

1.	Download mIRC here: http://www.mirc.com/get.html
2.	Install it.
3.		mIRC is shareware - it will annoy you after the 30 days pass, but it will still be usable. Wait about 15 seconds and you should be able to click Continue, even after the 30 days are up.
4.		This screen pops up next. Click Servers on the left side.
5.		Open the Quakenet folder, select Random server, then click Select. This sends you back to the previous screen.
6.		Click Options, and check Connect on startup and uncheck Show connect on startup. Click OK, closing the window.
7.		Hit [ALT][J] or go to Favorites > Organize Favorites. Uncheck Pop up favorites on connect and click OK.
8.		Go to View and uncheck the Treebar, Toolbar, and Menubar. You can always toggle the menubar by hitting [ALT].
9.		Hit [ALT][R] or go to Tools > Scripts Editor. Go to the Popups tab.
10.		Click View > Nick List. Insert this line of code right below Query:/query $$1: Redderize:/cnick -ans3 $address($$1,2) 4 De-Redderize:/cnick -r $address($$1,2) New Random Color:/cnick -r $address($$1,2)
11.		The Popups tab should look something like this. Now click the Remote tab and paste in this code:on *:start: { if (!%qnick) { set %qnick $?="Enter your Q AUTH name. If you don't know what auth is, press cancel and go here: http://bit.ly/tWb7ZA" if (%qnick) { set %qpass $?*:"Enter your Q AUTH password:" nick %qnick } } } on *:CONNECT: { if ($network == QuakeNet) { msg Q@CServe.quakenet.org auth %qnick %qpass } } raw 433:*Nickname is already in use*:{ if ($network == Quakenet) { mnick $left($mnick,12) $+ [ $rand(1,999) ] echo 4 %qnick is in use, changing nick to $me } } on IamQ:NOTICE:*NEVER send your password to ANYONE except Q*:*:{ if ($network == QuakeNet) { mode $me +x } } raw 396:*is now your hidden host*:{ if ($network == Quakenet) { join #DestinySC2 } } on ^*:TEXT:*:#: { if (!$cnick($nick)) { var %random = $rand(1,15) while ($istok(4 5,%random,32)) { %random = $rand(1,15) } cnick -m0 $wildsite %random } } on dharma:TEXT:v_ping:*:{ if (!%pingonceonly) { msg $nick <- beta v3 set %pingonceonly true } }
12.		Now go to the Users tab, and paste this in:IamQ:Q!TheQBot@CServe.quakenet.org dharma:*!*@Dharmaturtle.users.quakenet.orgClick OK, closing the window.
13.		Hit [ALT][B] or go to Tools > Address Book. Go to the Nick Colors tab and check Enable nick colors. Add these users:Destiny *!*@Destiny.users.quakenet.org Any nicks with @ Use Red for Destiny and Maroon for mods. The "redderize" script in step 11 is hard coded for there to be 3 users here, so please make sure you add all 3.
14.		Now in the Highlight tab, check the Enable highlight box and add this:@((.*destiny.*)|(.*steven.*)) *.com*,*.org*,*.edu*,*.gov*,*.net*,*.tv*,*.uk*,*.us*,*.mil* $meFor the Destiny part, make sure you have "regex" checked, and set the color to red. For the URL portion, choose blue. The $me portion will trigger every time your name is said, so if you have a complicated name, feel free to add to this. For example, if your name is bean_dharma, use this: $me,*bean*,*dharma*
15.		Hit [ALT][K] or go to View > Colors. Click Own text, and then click the Navy swatch (the first, darkest blue) in the 8x2 color box. Right click the swatch, and the second window should open. Click Define Custom Colors and change the Lum (luminosity) of navy to 110. Continue in this manner: Green = 50 lum, Yellow = 80 lum, Lime = 100 lum, teal = 50 lum, cyan = 100 lum, blue = 140 lum, grey = 80 lum, and then make the last color (light grey) brown by clicking the preset.
16.		Hit [ALT][O] or go to Tools > Options. Go to IRC on the left hand side, then click Events. Set Joins/Parts/Quits to hide. Hit OK once
17.		Click Display > Options on the left side, then click the Marker button. Change the color from brown to grey, then click OK twice.
18.		Go to View > Font. Change the font to Lucida Sans Unicode, size 10. Hit OK.
19.		Navigate to C:\Users\USERNAME\ AppData\Roaming\mIRC\mirc.ini, right click it, and open with it with Notepad.
20.		At the very bottom of the file, you should find[fonts] fstatus=Lucida Sans,413,0,2,0 Add fchannel=Lucida Sans Unicode,413,0,2,0 and fquery=Lucida Sans Unicode,413,0,2,0 to it, so it becomes [fonts] fstatus=Lucida Sans Unicode,413,0,2,0 fchannel=Lucida Sans Unicode,413,0,2,0 fquery=Lucida Sans Unicode,413,0,2,0 Save, close, and reopen mIRC, and you should be greeted with a prompt for your Q username! Congratulations!

Banning in Quakenetwith mIRC

Don't bother trying any of this if you aren't modded.

1.		Hit [ALT][R] or go to Tools > Scripts Editor. Go to the Popups tab.
2.		Click View > Nick List. Insert these 3 lines of code right above Info:/uwho $1: Ban:/ban $chan $address($$1,2) 10m ban:/msg q tempban $chan $address($$1,2) 10m 10 minute ban by $me 24h ban:/msg q tempban $chan $address($$1,2) 24h 24 hour ban by $me

The "Ban" and "24hr Ban" work via different methods, so if one doesn't work, the other should. Click the status window (the one that says Quakenet) to see possible error messages.
