Since the Ingame chat application didn't got used, and i wanted to be in the shoutbox to stalk without having my webbrowser open i tought it will be nice to create a nice leightweight chat app for ugbase.
Without further talking here are some screenies:
(Tray)
This Chat has some things to notice:
- It's written in C++ and compiled with the VS2008 toolset.
- It's using QT for the GUI and BOOST for processing some things.
- It has a low usage of resources, means you should be able to run it in background w/o problems.
- It supports both Reading & Writing in the Chat.
- It has an customizable sound if messages are received (just replace notification.wav).
- You can customize the theme by overwriting style.qss with qt 4.8 styles (you can find them in the interwebz)
- If you use it you can gladly say "I AM ECO!" because it has less demand on the Server than the in-site chat box.

How to use / how to Chat:
You should be fine with reading, you need no permissions for that.
But for writing it's another thing, you need to supply the Program with a password hash and your username.
If you first start the Program it'll create an config.yml with empty fields.
But no problem just go to this Site http://ugbase.eu/NChat/getcredits.php supply it with your Account Data and it'll output a finished config.yml just replace the content with your current one ( AND BE SURE YOU RESTART IT ).
Before complaining that something not works check if you have installed the "Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable" for your OS.
