Greetings!
I'm really happy I can present you this community-made osu IRC client, which I made with my friend gamelaster.
I'm glad another person helped us with updates, so he's a second programmer. Thanks Hallowatcher!
I'm the designer and "CEO" of this project, so if you have any questions, feel free to ask me.
If you have any ideas on how to improve this client, feel free to tell us (just PM me or post a reply in this topic, both are checked daily by me)



- Simple design which fits new osu!next design.
- User friendly interface
- Online users in current channel
- Simple channel management
- Beatmap management
- Auto-Update system
- Windows, OS X Support
- Night mode
- Settings to make the client fit your needs
- Notification sounds (when someone mentions you in the chat)
- Mouse hover player info
- Multi-language support
- osu! chat additions (you can see who's a mod) [Supporters coming soon]

Coming soon:
- iOS/Android/Windows Phone Support
- Friendlist / Friend management (along with friend status)
- Much more features

Sure, but I'll have to talk about this with the programmer. ^^
If it won't be open-sourced, we will at least release an API which could be used to make custom skins and other features.

If you're going to blatantly ask for money, please don't use our official designs, trademarks, colour palettes, logos etc.

Without attribution at that.

It's going against the licence it was released under (AGPL for some items, complete copyright for others).

Thread locked until I receive an email resolving these issues.

Dear peppy,

thank you for opening this thread once again after the discussion through e-mail.

I want to announce the changes to everyone:
- No donate button
- New "About" button where you can find credits
- GNU v3 license
- Name changes (from osu!irc to "irc4osu!")
- We will also release a source of this client via GitHub


I hope everyone will be happy when using our irc chat tool. :)

CHANGELOG:
March 16th, 2016

- Name has already been changed from osu!irc to irc4osu!
- Donation button already removed
- Design is recoded into the app, we are working on the functions right now - that means you will see first public build in few days
- Added credits & license info in "About" tab.
- Minor changes in design (especially the country channel tab)
- We've also created a GItHub repository already, which will be available along with the first public build


If you have any ideas, feel free to psot them.
As always, thanks for your support, guys!

Well, I didn't think about that but it will be open sourced, so if I won't make a dark theme, you can make it yourself c:

We are finishing with some minor changes. If it won't be done in few days, I'll release the source so everyone can do whatever they want with it.
If that happens, I'll continue with support for the design aspect at least.

Hello everyone,
I was just testing some things with it, unfortunately I wasn't able to reach the programmer.
However, I can show you guys another little preview just so you can see I'm trying my best even without the programmer.
It means that the project's not dead. Unfortunately it will probably just take a while without him. If you are experienced in Electron, feel free to PM me. :)

Just wondering, why not use html5 and just use something like PhoneGap to easily support every phone platform. For desktop OSs it would be more easier to implement. You can use chrome. (Forgot how but it's used by some apps)
It already works on HTML5 under Electron (electron.atom.io), so don't worry about that, it already works that way.

Oh. So you're using CEF already :| (Electron uses CEF to work)
Then for the phone apps you can use PhoneGap by adobe. (Unless you use nodejs for the irc implementation I guess)

Just suggesting things here
Well, yeah, but there is a little problem. Library what I use (node-irc) is NodeJS only and Apache Cordova/PhoneGAP doesnt have support of Node libraries, and I think the browserify (conversion into a pure JS) will work on this... So phone version will be harder.. We will see ^^

a few days!
