unfortunately, those instructions are less than entirely accurate.
SWG to SWG (cross-server) chat rooms aren't working, at least.

Now if you could just tie in MSN Messenger and Yahoo! Messenger, we could stay logged in all the time!

You can't have same username in 2 games in your friends list.

While those instructions work for tells, they do not work for joining chat rooms on the SWG side. Attempting to use the /join xxxxx command as listed in the instructions gives you a message stating that you can't join a group unless you're invited; this tells me that there's a conflict between the chat command and the group command, meaning that unless there's a secondary command you can use to join chatrooms (haven't had a chance to try the /chatr join thing yet, so that might be it -I don't know), you can't.
Either way, the instructions need to be corrected, or some tinkering with the slash commands needs to be done so that this feature actually works from the SWG side of things.

This is something the Ranger community was recently trying to start up. A cross server channel for those of us that are regularly testing or looking for information. Unfortunately the /join command that the document suggests we use is already seperated to a different function.
Talking to other SOE games is possible, though I've only participated in channels where people have joined prior to my arrival. Setting up cross-server SWG chat is not possible by the instructions TH offers though, ![]()
