PS3Hax Network - Playstation 3 Hacks and Mods - View Single Post - Connecting To HaXNetwork IRC Using External Client

EDIT:
The forum now has a new IRC client, that uses mibbit, which is far better than the Java client, so nay of you not wanting to install a dedicated IRC client, just use that

So some of you join the forums IRC network to receive help, but you join using the forums Java client, for some of you, that isn't practical, like those of you that use your PS3's, or those of you that have smart phones, etc, it also appears that some of you are hesitant to join as you either dont know what to expect, or the Java client has failed and you have given up, so i will attempt to cover a few points, so that you get the help to get the help you need.

Using a Playstation 3: So not everyone has the luxury of owning a PC, the only way to join HaXNetwork IRC on a non Linux PS3, is via mibbit, i have made a link specifically for HaXNetwork, Click Here To Join HaXNetwork For Live Help, you will be taken to a screen, where you can enter your nick from this forum, or use the default one set, mibbit can be used on mostly all devices and is very handy on a PS3, providing that you have a Keyboard and Mouse.

Thats the easiest one covered, as all the IRC servers details are already filled in for you, so now on to the slighty harder side of IRC. All the following clients will need an address entered where it says "Server", the address is as follows: irc.ps3sanctuary.com

Now on to the devices and clients:

Android Devices:
AndChat
Android IRC(Free Version)This gives an annoying lag screen when you first start the client, but if you arnt willing to pay, its your only option.
Yaaic - Yet Another Android IRC Client

iPhone:
Colloguy
Limechat
Rooms
IRChon
EbIRC

Mac:
Xchat-Aqua
Linkinus
Ircle

Windows:
XChat My personal favourite IRC client.
mIRC Possibly the best IRC client for scripting, i use it for my bot Olga.

Linux has a version of XChat, if you are installing XChat via Linux, be sure not to use the Gnome version, as it is horrible, you can also use mIRC on Linux via Wine.

As it may still see a bit daunting, i will leave you with a few video tutorials that i have created.

XChat:

mIRC:

Thank you for viewing my tutorial, i hope it has helped and i look forward to speaking to you guys on IRC.
