Guild2Guild  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 7.5.9
by: dbeleznay, Jaxomuk

Enables communication between 2 or more guilds via a separate (private) chat channel,
which translates the messages between the 2 or more guild chats. Two users are required
to have this addon for it to work (1 in each guild), however only 1 user per guild is
required to have Guild2Guild for all members of both guilds to reap the benefits. For
example, guild chat from guild A will appear in guild B's guild chat, and vice-versa.

== Features ==
¤ Works for officer chat as well. You can enable either guild chat, officer chat, or both.
¤ Allows item linking
¤ Completely secure since the transmission channel is via in game whispers. The public
channel that you set is used for cross guild synchronization only
* You can set the add-on to be even more secure by limiting the guilds that you will
accept relays from (in case someone with the addon has characters in multiple guilds)
* forwards messages that other addons send to the guild addon channel
* unlike previous versions, more than two people from either guild can have the add-on
running at once (in fact its encouraged for stability)
* Everyone with the addon will see the guild chat as though it came directly from the
person that sent the message. Clicking on their name will have all the same functionality
as the regular WOW UI.


== USAGE ==
To use Guild2Guild, just download and install like any other addon, and have a friend (in a
different guild) do the same. Then, decide upon a synchronization channel, and set both of
your G2G's to the same channel, like so:

/g2g channel relaychannel

Once the channel is set, simply enable G2G as such:

/g2g on

You should now be ready for intra-guild communications!

== GUILDMASTERS ==

You can limit the guilds that you can connect to using a white list, and automatically set
the channel and password by adding a string like:

<G2G;C:channel;P:secret;A:Guild1,Guild2;>

to your guild information (through the guild options menu).
Where channel is the name of the channel you want guild2guild to use to coordinate relays,
password is the password for that channel, and Guild1 and Guild2 are the names of two or more
guilds that you would like to allow to connect to this one.

(Password is optional, you don't need to use it if you don't want to have a password.)

Alternately you can create a custom build of guild2guild for your guild to use by editing the file
DefaultConfiguration.lua to use a new channel, and channel password, and then reposting this
add on to your guild website.

Guild to Guild will automatically promote people that are allowed to speak in the officer
channel to relays. This is so that the officer chat can be relayed as well.

== KNOWN BUGS ==
none

== Summary of in-game help commands ==

To view the usage of Guild2Guild:

/g2g help

To turn this addon on or off:

/g2g [on|off]

To turn guild chat on or off:

/g2g gchat [on|off]

To turn officer chat on or off:

/g2g ochat [on|off]

To turn relay change notification on or off:

/g2g relaynotify [on|off]

To turn on passive mode (for slow connections - be the last person to be elected relay)

/g2g passive [on|off]

To turn on silent mode (block all incoming messages from the allied guilds)

/g2g silent [on|off]

To set or change the hidden synchronization channel used by this addon:

To view your settings:

/g2g report

(ADVANCED: If something really strange happens you can type /g2g stackdump which will take a
snapshot of the last few minutes of guild2guild activity. If you mail me your guild2guild saved
variables file when you log out then I will be better able to debug what went wrong.)

7.5.9
- fixed error caused when the person you are talking to disconnects, but you still have messages for them
- fixed error message when you turn on Blizzard Class Coloring in the chat frame

7.5.8
- shortened the inter-guild message when a player earns an achievement

7.5.7
- changed to use ChatThrottleLib by Mikk - http://www.wowwiki.com/ChatThrottleLib which should prevent disconnects when a large raid gets an achievement
- allow the channel password to be set to NIL by typing /g2g password

7.5.6
fixed a few minor bugs related to achievements
- achievements are no longer broadcast unless they come from someone in your guild.
- achievement messages are now displayed in the correct window

7.5.5
- achievements are now propagated across guilds
- fixed an extra space that was being introduced when in guild2guild messages
- added a 'silent' mode which allows a player to not see any guild2guild messages
- the addon now automatically shuts down if the password is set incorrectly

7.5.4
- updated for current TOC

7.5.3
- added an additional call to set the variable (arg2) for the sender. For the case of addons like Prat and PhanxChat
which were incorrectly reading it from the global namespace instead of the passed in arguments. This fixes the bug
where some users would see messages as coming from the relay instead of from the correct sender

7.5.2
- initialized chat color properly

7.5.1
- fixed a bug that was still causing duplicate names after relay changes

7.5.0
- Updated to current TOC
- fixed up after blizzard changed the chatframe api

7.4.9
- Updated to current TOC
- added the ability to disable notification messages when the relay changes

7.4.8
- added the ability for a relay to step down if there are others available (passive mode)
- /report shows the complete list of potential relays, and their versions
- no longer allow allied guilds to be put on the rejected relay list
- added a way to change the chat color for incoming guild messages to the context menu for the chat frame
- fixed a synchronization issue where an election would happen immediately after a player logged in if it took them a long time to load


7.4.7 - Jan 5, 2008
- fixed an error where an officer would always try to be the relay even if they didn't have the latest version.


7.4.6 - Jan 5, 2008
- fixed an error on login when the 'guildmembernotify' variable had not yet loaded, but I was trying to query it
- fixed a parse error when looking for player has left the guild messages


7.4.5 - Jan 2, 2008
- Selection of relays is now based on officer rank, ignore list, and whether the 'guild member alert' is set to on
- Play the friend online sound when a member of an allied guild comes online
- Text from players in the allied guild that you are ignoring is no longer displayed locally
- fixed a nil pointer when a message that is too long is sent with a hyperlink
- hide the g2g channel
- No longer working around the guild member alert not firing the event if you don't have the flag set.
Instead I just set it to true the first time you use guild to guild on that character, and afterwards respect
your decision. (Turning it off will really turn it off).

7.4.4 - Dec 27, 2007
- avoid sending Online/Offline messages for players that are merely on the relays friends list, and not actually in the guild.

7.4.3 - Dec 27, 2007

7.3.8

7.3.5 - Nov 20, 2007
- officer chat is detected automatically
- other addon messages sent to the guild channel are now relayed
- fixed a problem where guild2guild was always trying to take over the first channel
- fixed a bug which was causing connections to other guilds to be lost when the current relay
logged out, and a new one took over if the guild was not using the whitelist
- fixed a bug where the relay would bounce back and forth once when the relay ownership was
transferred to an officer

7.3.4 - Oct 15, 2007
prevented double messages from occurring when one of the relay's got drunk and the guild was
not using whitelists for allied guilds.

7.3.3 - Sept 28, 2007
fixed a synchronization issue electing a new relay when the current relay logged out

Hi Mysticbc,

I've never seen that problem before, but I'm happy to help you try to debug it.

Can you try the following for me?
1. log in to wow with your character that is using guild2guild
2. wait about a minute for g2g to initialize
2. in a chat window type /g2g report
7. next type /g2g stackdump
8. log out
8. send me a copy of the file C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\WTF\Account\DURTHOS\Proudmoore\Durthos\SavedVariables\Guild2Guild.lua (obviously the account name and character name will be yours)

Thanks

Durthos

WoW 3.1

First, thank you for your time with this mod! Any chance of an update for 3.1. This broke for me/us. Is anyone else having a problem? Anyone know of a fix or a replacement. Thanks.

NM, seems to be working. I must have been up to late.

Bug Fixed

Ok.. so of anybody repeatedly gets the "Please Enter Password" Window spammed in their face..
1: Type "/g2g off"
2: Type "/join channelname"
3: Type "/g2g on"

Replace "channelname" with your guild's guild2guild channel name.
It worked for me and a couple guild members that were also having the problem.

On a side note.. if you want your guild chat to have a password and restricted to certain guilds, make sure you make a costomised version of guild2guild for all your guild members to download, and make sure nobody is using the default version. My guild had a little problem, where sombody downloaded the default guild2guild addon, and it changed the guild info, and allowed some other guild into our chat.

A more passive method

First of all, I'd like to say that this is a great addon, and has worked wonders to get me and my fellow guildmates connected with our allied guild. I do think there are a few changes that could be made to improve this addon.

The method the addon currently uses to relay the chat, via spitting out the allied guild's chat with my name infront of it, is a bit messy, and confusing for the other guild members, not to mention a few accidental guild chat mixups which took quite some time to get sorted out. I think a better way to relay the chat would be to "Invite" guild members to the custom chat channel so that they can see the chat directly from the other guild members, with the allied guild's names still clickable and linkable, without installing the addon.

Members who do have the addon installed would see the custom chat channel just the same as they see the guild chat, with some sort of symbol to distinguish members from different guilds. They would also be able to view an "allied guild roster" via the chat tab in the social pannel, which could possibly be enhanced by the addon. Also when a user sends a message to guild chat, it will be sent to the custom chat channel instead.

Channel invites will be sent when an officer clicks an "Invite all guild members" button. The addon should only allow officers to send the invites, which could be checked by sending a test message simmilar to this one; "/o Guild2Guild has invited <Guild Name> to g2g chat".

If the user doesent have access to officer chat, they will recieve the standard error message which will be detected by the addon, and the invites will not be sent.

This way, guild members wont be force fed the chat from the other guilds, and they can decline the invite, and if a member doesent like the chat going on in the other guilds, they can just leave the chat channel.

It would also be a good idia to make a chat interface for the addon, which could be made optional, and be considered a "Lite" version, minimum to view the custom chat channel as guild chat instead.

This is all i can think of at the moment, but if you need more idias, just ask.

This mod is awesome, I need some answers tho. Is there any way to make it so that only certain members of 1 guild can see another guilds chat? Or would it be easier to just create a custom channel ingame and have members join that?

Meaning, if I were logged into my character, Nesace, and typed the following:
/g Hey guys, what's up?

The following line will appear in the chat log:
[Guild] [Nesace]: Hey guys, what's up?

However, with this mod installed, if I type:
/g [Grumble]: just shoot me now

The following line will appear in my chat log:
[Guild] [Grumble]: just shoot me now

Meaning, anybody can appear to be anybody else.


I hope this is a little more clear.

Re: Re: Great Mod!!

Thank you that helps out a LOT!!!
Also I did find a mod, called Guild Alliance, so far it works really well, just has a few issues, but if the other guild has this mod you can see their online guild list, which makes it really nice.

Maybe could talk to the developer and work on a combination mod

Thanks again I would have never found that option about changing the colors!!

Re: Great Mod!!

G2G text can be in another color as of 7.4.8 -- go to the text menu color for guild text, and you'll see g2g. (I haven't done multiple yet -- yes it is more time consuming).

If lets say guild1 and guild2 were the original guilds. Guild2 invites Guild3. If I did the white list, would just guild 2 and 3 be talking among themselves and we dont see it.. or would we be seeing guild 2 having a one sided conversation? (I really hope that made sense)
Guild1 would see guild2's text
Guild2 would see guild1 and guild3's text
Guild3 would see guild2's text

Guild3 and Guild1 would see one sided conversations (and a warning message when someone from guild 1 or 3 tried to connect with them.

I have thought about this ... but I haven't implemented it yet.
