hi ive been chatting to a friend who used to play EQ1 and he described a messenger type program for talking to people ingame without runing the game!

has anyone found such a program for swg?

would love to know were i can get it if it exists and im sure it would be of benifit to people stuck at work as well as people who have left the game that want to stay intouch with there friends who still play

Such a program would be very cool, But I doubt it exists for swg

yep ive been looking and not found one yetwhich is why im asking here but as eq hadone i would expect swg to have one as both games are made by soe!and from a post below stateing that we can cross game tell from eq2 to swg it would seem they use similar ifnot the samechat servers?

EQ, EQ2 and SWG all use the same backend chat system so I don't see why it couldn't be done As it stands now you can talk to anyone with EQ, EQ2 and of course SWG in-game


Edit:

I had a look around for this program. Either I didn't search hard enough or there simply isn't one.. mind sending me in a direction?

i've looked at the interfaces that swg uses versus the interfaces that eq1 uses to chat from a exterior source, they are slightly different (i think, it's hard to tell) so something would have to be made from scratch.

Isn't the Matrix Online going to implement this with AIM?
