How dose 1 go about joining these channels
?

[/ QUOTE ]

To join, right click on your chat window, and select 'Join Channel'. In the box that appears, you're going to put the name of the channel, but I can't remember if you use an @ symbol in front of it like you would if you were adding someone to your global list or not - it should tell you when you go to join.

Then, go to a tab, right click on it, and edit tab -- add the selected channel to your tab, and away you go!

Happy chatting!

when you join the channel, it joins automatically for all your alts. but you have to edit the tab to add it as a channel that shows in your window, for every alt that you want to be able to see it. i do that even on my newbies, so that if something good comes across i can change to a higher toon to get in on the action.

Nobody will read this far!

Don't turn off TOOLTIPS in the Options menu!

With ToolTips, you can hover the mouse over your XP bar, and it will tell you how much XP you've made since your last 'level up', and how much more you need to make.

fantastic thread!

i haven't seen this one mentioned yet. under options you can change the amount of time that passes before the tooltip shows up. i like mine at 10%, i'm impatient.

Just to clarify what KMad posted.
It's not possible to change .ogg files located in the .piggs. It is also against the EULA (End User License Agreement). Besides that, even if one could the launcher would detect it as an altered/corrupted .pigg and download the correct version.

What KMad meant was they silenced the sounds by twice copying a silent .ogg file into the data\sound\Ogg\Powers folder and renamed them with those file names.


Description: when traveling with teleport
Folder name: Powers
File name: teletrans3.ogg, teletrans4.ogg

oops you are exactly correct! in my giddiness about being happier with the sounds, i phrased things wrong.

first off, impkin you are my hero!!!!!!! or my most feared villain, whichever you prefer

i used this info and the email from impkin to get rid of the sounds that happen when i teleport. i love the power, but the sounds are just too loud relative to others and they drove me crazy. posting this here in the hopes that it may help others.

the files i changed were teletrans3.ogg and teletrans4.ogg . they are in the SoundPowers.pigg file.
