So, to start off, if you have nothing nice to add to this, don't bother posting.

About 4 days ago, DaRkNeSS, Br55HiT and I thought it would be a good idea to make a channel on mIRC for players to access for their file needs. We currently have 3 bots in the channel that are on almost 24/7 (atleast 1 of them) and you can msg one of the 3 bots to DCC you any file in dp, from huds to maps, instead of going on your web browser and typing in a website. The commands are as follows.

!find <file here> (Meaning the file could be a map, ex: !find shazam22 or a texture, ex: !find hr4)

!files (This will show you the command to view all the files the bot(s) have)

!hosts (This will show you what bots are currently up and available to send files)

Jitspoe, if you would like to help scripting or if you would have anything you'd like to add. Please come to #dp-files on globalgamers.

Thanks, JiGSaW

EDIT: Also, make sure you have your DCC ignore off. Which can be turned off by going here on your mirc.

Tools > Options > DCC (then there's a dropdown when you doubleclick DCC) > Ignore and at the top make sure in the dropdown it says Disabled, and on the bottom of that same window, make sure the box that says *Turn ignore back on in 3 minutes* is unchecked.

Hmmm... nice idea Jigsaw nice to see some support from that direction

I'll put it on the DPPUG site with the other channels next time I have Matze update.

As I told you guys on irc, I thought of this idea before you, so I deserve credit for all of it.

Kaos · « **Reply #10 on:** August 12, 2007, 09:10:05 PM »

not really cuz even though u thought of it first u didn't pull it off fast enough like these guys so i think they deserve it

Cobo · « **Reply #11 on:** August 12, 2007, 09:11:43 PM »

First, I was kidding, second, its not that they beat me to do it, its that I decided I woudlnt do it.

Ack. Spammy script. >_<

Br55HiT · « **Reply #13 on:** August 12, 2007, 09:36:06 PM »

I'll get on that Eiii and try to fix it to your liking.

Eiii · « **Reply #14 on:** August 12, 2007, 09:43:16 PM »

I wrote a script for darkness that did it in a nice, non-spammy method. Why that's not being used, I don't know. >_>

Br55HiT · « **Reply #15 on:** August 12, 2007, 11:21:09 PM »

Well what method did you use?

Eiii · « **Reply #16 on:** August 12, 2007, 11:36:30 PM »

As opposed to sending the user one notify message per file found, potentially resulting in waaay to many freaking messages and getting your bot kicked, I had my script send one or two messages containing a list of 20ish files found each.

Less kicking, less unnecessary text, more usable.

I really like this. Very useful and handy. Instead of opening up Mozilla or Internet Explorer(Never...), You can just join the mIRC channel and type in what you are looking for. Sometimes map choices aren't on the map site, so you never know when you may need to use this. Good work.

!find and !files not working for me...
