"Nice mIRC Tutorial"

date: June 3, 2005

This is a very informative tutorial movie for people who wish to connect to IRC by using mIRC. It explained a lot of the technical aspects (including some stuff even I did not know) as well as basic mIRC interface. I would have probably made the music quality a bit higher, but that's really a minor issue. Good work.

Author's Response:

Thanks for the kind words, 00_Agent_Kid. I hope you didn't say nice things just because I asked people to on our forums. =P

"You should work more on this one..."

I hate mIRC, there are also many other IRC clients on the net available. The first part of this animation had some potential, soo keep up with the work!

Author's Response:

"long.. but good"

date: June 3, 2005

this was good. knowledge is power.. i appreciate that you are trying to spread information about cool stuff like mIRC! it was long and i dont have enough time to read all the way through.. i read the first few "pages".. pretty good. you definitely set out to do what you wanted to. one suggestion for you:
obviously, you deem this information fairly exciting, no? you've gotta get the music to match. that stuff was putting me to sleep! throw in some.. i dont know, moby or something, chemical brothers, whatever - just make sure that, like this current music, it is without vocals - they are distracting.

another suggestion would be to UP the interactivity even more but you don't really need to do that; it would make it easier to pay attention. lots of people have problems paying attention for that long especially with black and white text ;)

Author's Response:

Hmm. Some people like the music, some people don't. Maybe I'll have to give a couple of choices, like some other tutorials on here do. I definitely agree on the lack of words, though. I can't study to music that has words in it, either.
As for the interactivity... I'll work on that. I know it looks a little boring now, but that's why this is only v1.0!

"I read all of that information"

date: June 3, 2005

Even though I don't use mIRC anymore, I still took the time to read through the information in this flash and I find it very useful for people that want to use mIRC properly. I wasn't really much of a person that used those sort of things, just used it to chat, mainly the VGMusic chat room. :) Anyway, nice work. :)

Author's Response:

Cool, thanks. If you can think of anyone else who might like it, send them along. We could always use more people in our chat room. :)

"good tutorial on how to use IRC"

date: June 3, 2005

I already know how to use the tool, but i'm going to have to show my friends this.. I had no freakin clue how to work the dang thing when I first got it.. I was like wtf? to everything, and I know almost everyone else ive tried to get to use it does the same and I really hate explaining it.. there are some advanced functions you left out, but that's okay, because they're really annoying and this is mainly for newbies anyway :p

thanks for the tutorial!

Author's Response:

Yeah, the whole point of this was so that I wouldn't have to explain it again, and perhaps that less people would have to go through what I did as a noob.
Now that this is through the Portal, I'll be sure to add some more advanced stuff. Thanks for the kind words!

"good orientation"

date: June 3, 2005

Strengths: nice introductory orientation to mIRC - the sequence of help screens was logical & well ordered. The screenshots & pictures of the mIRC user interface were helpful as well, and will probably help viewers understand your primer & featured content. Most explanations are also concise & straight to the point. Finally, the simple user commands you made available were quite useful.

Weaknesses: the use of more colour would greatly enhance ur presentation - perhaps distinguishing main headings from content material. A graphically rich background would be beneficial as well - but of course not one of those Megabyte expending fancy backgrounds.. ya' kno hehe.. To further polish off ur presentation - perhaps adding a fancy menu with more detailed menu's would do the trick. How about sound effects as well? Anyway, Looking forward to further installments of more advanced commands- maybe the basics of Remote scripts & F key Alias'- good job

Author's Response:

Thanks for the tips. I'm well aware of the weaknesses - I just wanted to see if anyone thought this was any good before I wasted too much more time spiffing it up. I'll add the neat little menus and graphics and sound effects and stuff (maybe narration, too) later. Right now, I'm focusing on content. Scripting and aliases are next!

"Nice tutorial"

by: juraj
date: June 3, 2005

It was nice overall, here's the list of things you could add:

- NoName Script for mIRC. It makes chatter's life easier with using all those bots like NickServ and it brings skins to mIRC. nnscript.de

- add some support for the Q bot found on QuakeNet network. QN is really popular so it would be nice if you included some info on it for newbies. quakenet.org

That's all I can think of :)

Author's Response:

Holy crap, dude, this is for NEWBIES. YOu want me to drown then in mIRC script when they hardly learn to log on?
Don't worry, when I make this more comprehensive, I'll add more complicated things.
