Looks pretty nice George! Well done Did you make this with WinForms or XAML or something else? It looks like XAML to me but i could be wrong.

@Gulk I've looked into external chat from within a browser before (for both LU and VCMP) but it's not really worth the effort that it requires. MTS had it because the launcher actually handled the connection between the game and the server, including sending/receiving all the sync packets so adding chat there wasn't really hard (IIRC the ingame chat box reads directly from the launcher chat for its input).
To add this to VCMP you would need to establish a connection with the server seperately and implement the chat related packets, while it's possible if you know how the packets are, it's not that easy to do, especially in C#. Plus you'd have to disconnect the outgame client when launching the game otherwise you'd have 2 connections to the server.

Anyway, back to the main topic. Cool project George, keep it up

Ahh yes... that was fun

So it has came to my attention that there are people out there who are joining servers as me then either pestering the admins for admin permissions or being complete idiots. I would like to point out that i would never do such a thing and i would never ask for admin rights on any server.

Something else that i have noticed lately is people joining servers (sometimes as me) and trying to blackmail the server owners into paying them. They claim they have everybodies scripts (including LWs... lol) and they will release them unless paid. These people (as i'm sure it's not just one retard) are just trying to exploit good server owners and they don't have anybodies scripts. Just ban the suckers and don't worry

So yeah, if you see 'me' join a server and start being a dick then it isn't me, same goes for Force, Juppi, AdTec_224 and other 'high-ranking' individuals. We can always confirm our identities on IRC and to verify it's me just check the IP, mine starts with 151.227
