New Chat system

[RexDameon]

Marco posted on EP about a new chat system in the next VU.

The current chat server system is completely killed in VU 7.1, where a new one based on a different technology is used. This should yield instant chat access at logon, no disconnects, and no more problems when logging on and off (for team chat etc).

Thanks for the update Rex.

How I long for the day when information like this will be presented in the Official Client Loader or Website. Sigh.

Until that happens, it may be an idea to have a bookmark to: here which is an EP link showing everything Marco says.

it seems the loot server is also connected to this chat server.


anyone notice now that if you login and kill a mob bEFORE connecting to the chat server it wont give loot, or a 'no loot' msg?

they are intertwined somehow.

You mean you can kill a mob and get loot? How???

Dont worry i know i thought the same thing. You may not get the this creature did not contain any loot message in your chat window but you CAN get loot not connected to chat server i know from experience.
