X-Fire

[Tarun]

I believe it messes with your Internet speed and such.

Has anyone here gotten xFire to work while using Yahoo Messenger? I can't get it to work here.

Gizmo anyone?

[Jeremy]

I tried Gizmo, didn't like it. My college A+ instructor mentioned LSPFix. Perhaps someone will mention this LSP issue to the XFire developers so they can fix this "issue". I don't have many games installed, I'm not in any clan so I don't have much use for XFire. Nonetheless, it is a nice app and it now works with Garry's Mod, which I play often.

HAHA! I wonder if this might have anything to do with the fact that Yahoo tried to sue X-Fire!

nice resurect of a year old topic... anyways..

yea, i've been able to run Yahoo with XFire. although i don't run Yahoo very often, mainly cause i don't like the look and feel of it.

Xfire is very useful, just really annoying when you get clan members on different teams telling where they are....for example,

Counter Strike- seen it when dead players tell other players where the other team is, well annoying but doesnt happen that often

[Synapse]

actually, i believe Ventrilo and Teamspeak are more of an annoyance of clan members telling the other team where people are going.. rather then X-Fire.

althought.. i'm guilty of it so i guess i'm neutral. I tell my friends where other people are just to end the game earlier... its either a. sit there and wait on the guy camping spawn until time runs out, or b. tell my freind where he is so he can kill him.

but in my group of friends, we use Xfire only to join the same games.. it pretty much goes like this "find a server" "ok" "i'm in" *everyone else connects*

Same thing here - tis the easiest way.

Usually use skype conf call in the background for voice chat tho

Can XFire access existing networks in the same way that Trillian does (i.e. is it just a client?) or would I have to convince all my friends to switch?

[Maleko]

dont think so, it has its own network, specified for games etc, not a multi chat program
