| | | | |
| − | === ...with an external client ===
| + | Besides there are [[guild]] channels, named after the respective guilds. Here the guild members meet. The channel can be protected, e.g. by setting a password. |
| − | If you prefer using some external client software for chatting, you need the following connection data:
| + | |
| − | * IP-Adresse: ''78.47.132.50''
| + | |
| − | * Servername: ''chat.xhodon.de''
| + | |
| − | * Port: ''6641''
| + | |
| | | | |
| − | Your nickname in the chat has to be identical to your name in the game.
| + | You will automatically join to all these channels including your guild channel (if you are member of a guild) the second you enter the Hall Chat via the link in the game. |
| − | | + | |
| − | ==== Finding out the server password ====
| + | |
| − | To establish the connection the server you need its password. This password is your private ''Session-ID'' within [[Xhodon]]. When connecting to the IRC server, you '''have to''' be logged on to the game!
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Be sure to close the ingame chat before trying to connect with an external client, because you cannot be connected twice with the same nickname. In this case the server will terminate your connection.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | You can figure out the ''Session-ID'' as follows: | + | |
| − | #In the game start the chat by clicking the link "''Hall Chat''" in the [[menu bar]].
| + | |
| − | #As soon as the chat starts, open the page's source code.
| + | |
| − | **If you use the web browser ''Firefox'', open the menu "''View''" and click the menu item "''View page source''".
| + | |
| − | **If you use ''Internet Explorer'', open the menu "''View''" and clicke the menu item "''Source''".
| + | |
| − | #In the source code look for a paragraph that looks like this:
| + | |
| − | <pre><frameset rows="100%,180">
| + | |
| − | <frame src="index.php" name="xhodon">
| + | |
| − | <frame src="<nowiki>http://chat.xhodon.de/chat_en/ ?game_path=http://en1.xhodon.co.uk/xhodon/&port=6641
| + | |
| − | &user=Username&pass=abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzabcdef&Channel[]=Halle&Channel[]=GildenChannel</nowiki>" name="hox">
| + | |
| − | </frameset></pre>
| + | |
| − | The 32-digit code behind <tt>&pass=</tt> is the needed ''Session-ID'' and as well the server password (in the example the password is "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzabcdef").
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | This ID changes every time you log on to the game. So each time you have to figure it out anew and enter it into the connections settings in your chat client.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ==== Finding out the NickServ password ====
| + | |
| − | If you like to use all functions of the chat (in addition belong registering of own rooms or also the automatic assignment of rights with the entrance of a space), you must log in, with the NickServ. The password necessary in addition can be read out with the help of network analysers.

In the hall you find many players who can answer questions and help you with problems, or who just meet and have a chat.
The hall consists of many seperate "rooms" called "channels". Some of them are open to the public, others are private as for example some guild channels.
You will automatically join to all these channels including your guild channel (if you are member of a guild) the second you enter the Hall Chat via the link in the game.
