Basic SwiftKit Setup and IRC Registration
IMPORTANT UPDATE: If you're worried about whether or nor SwiftKit is safe please read This Article.
This guide is written for new members who are not used to SwiftKit and/or IRC and covers the basic setup of SwiftKit and its IRC client as well as registration of your IRC nickname. Staff may find this useful to show to new members who need help with either of these topics.
SwiftKit
The first step is to download SwiftKit from the SwiftKit website: http://swiftkit.net/
Once this is downloaded and installed launch the program. A profile selection page may appear. Simply select the default profile and tick the "Always use selected" box then click "Use selected" to continue.
When launched select "Show Internal Utilities" at the bottom right and then click on the pacman symbol to launch the IRC client.
Filters
You will now need to turn off SwiftKit's IRC filter or you will be unable to see any forum links posted by the clan. The steps are listed in the spoiler below.
1. Select Options
2. Select the IRC tab
3. Untick the "Enable message filtering" box
4,5. Apply/OK.
Finally enter your chosen nickname and put #wg_lobby in the channel box and click connect.
IRC Registration
Before doing this, make sure you only have one irc client open. Check that there is no underscore after your nickname. (e.g. Mojohaza1_)
Now that you are in the IRC you will need to register your Nickname, to allow our bot to recognise you as a member of the clan.
To register a nickname, follow these easy steps:
1. Type "/ns register password password email email" , obviously substituting email for your e-mail address and password for your desired password. Press Enter to sumbit it. This command will be seen only by the server and not by other people in the channel.
2. Check your inbox - you should have received an e-mail. Read it and follow its instructions.
3. Your nickname should be registered now!
Auto Identify
The final step is to set up auto-identify, so that the clients logs in your nickname every time you connect. You must first leave the IRC by typing "/quit" then right clicking the SwiftIRC tab and selecting close.
Now simply select the "Set up auto-identify" box and type in your new IRC password.
You can now successfully connect to #wg_lobby and our bot will recognise you! :woeh:
